Day 252: List five things that make me happy

1. I'm listening to a CD made from a record I bought from a rare folk collector or something, which I used to own, but my mom lost somehow. It's La Ronde des Voyageurs by a short-lived group called Éritage, from Quebec. I have also just bought their only other album (I didn't even know it existed!) from eBay, and hope to persuade my brother-in-law to help me turn several Quebecois folk albums into CDs... this one, too, actually, because the guy who sent it to me -- record album and CD -- made the CD just two long tracks, face A and face B. The other albums are EARLY (not recent) records by Édith Butler: L'Acadie S'Marie, Avant D'Être Dépaysée, and Asteur Qu'on Est Là.

2. Devlin, the kitten, seems to keep making steps forward. Baby steps, but hey, she's a baby.

3. Livestreaming! Of tiny, tiny baby kittens!

4. My older niece stayed over at my house for two nights in a row; it was fun, and lazy. Very little actual kitten-sighting for her, of course. Lots of Psyche, some Olympics, lots of Sims Medieval, and then accompanying our uncle (my dad's cousin, actually) who is something of an Apple fan boy, to finally implement his decision to buy an iPad. Not the new one, the current one. And dinner at his favorite restaurant, P. F. Chang's.

5. Any minute now I am going to go put on water to make tea, and have tea and cereal for, um, early dinner. Oh -- and Maya's blood work came back good, said the woman from the vet office, though there was something about the pancreas markers being "in the grey zone". But nothing that the vet was afraid of.
