Getting cold

It's starting to get colder.  The brand-new furnace kicked on this morning.  My desk sits right over a vent.  OMGosh, this heat-loving slug loves the placement of her desk.  -grin-  It's going to be a good winter.

Aleix, as you can see, has a new sweater.  She hates clothes, and I don't blame her, so all this summer I've been slowly acclimating her to it.  She wore a knitted collar for a few weeks while going outside, and then a little "shirt" that was more like a bandana.  Now she will tolerate the full thing, actually coming to me when I call her to put it on.  She still doesn't like it, but she'll wear it and act like a dog instead of standing in the middle of the yard and look miserable.

I have four days to revamp the website for Halloween / next release before I start the rewrite on book ten.  (My goal was to start it the first of October, and I made it!)  There won't be any big changes for a few days, but trust me, stuff is happening in the background already.  I've got the new colors in my mind, and the layouts will stay unchanged mostly apart from the first page.  The big question I'm mulling today is what should be my front Halloween picture.  I had a pumpkin one year, then cookies the next.  I'm thinking maybe a pile of leaves?

Ahhh . . . a week to play in the website.  Heaven!!
