Comfort and Joy were ensconced downstairs

What lovely names for cats! I assume they bring tidings.

Ursula K. LeGuin: Lavinia

Oh, I'll have to look for this.

I assume they bring tidings.

Yes, and my cousin used to sing in a choir!

>Family changes. That is the way of life. We roll with it or condemn ourselves to bitterness.

oh, isn't that the truth? i handle change very badly and slowly, but i see that this is true.

your cousin and her cats sound charming. :)

Yes, Cathy is the one very special cousin who keeps in touch from my dad's side (besides a cousin of my dad's who sometimes reads here!). I also have some wonderful aunts and cousins on Mom's side. I want to make more effort with extended family.

ooh, a Le Guin book I haven't read?? Time to go hunting. :)

Sounds like a lovely time, overall.
