EAR MITES!!! oy, vey...
I just had a couple of days to watch a new kitten play with a gigantic dawg - I know yer pets will make friends, after a bit. They can't help themselves... like kids, they just love to have a playmate and companion.
So, anyway, here I am, back at this incredibly magical cabin in the woods... got back last night. Neighbors in for the holiday weekend, with lots of friends staying over in tents on their meadow... one couple - lawyers - really very interested to see my place today. They want to buy a weekend/summer house up here. While I was gone, they looked around the place and fell in love with the setting...
(Be careful what you wish for...)
I went over to say hi to my neighbors and met said lawyer couple, and as soon as the woman said she'd like to see my place, I felt very defensive and proprietary... but i will show them the place today. I wouldn't be letting it go this summer, at any rate. But I'd know where to find a buyer next year, if I wanted one... <sigh>
