i've gotten a little sicker the past few days so the franklin plans were dashed for today. hopefully, the golf trip to gothenburg will happen. i feel bad for errol that he doesn't seem to do much. i think the cats are keeping him entertained for the most part.

speaking of cats, tonight errol said, "look! that one has a mouse in its mouth!" after closer examination, we realized that it was a newborn kitten. ah, the circle of life. socks dead but another alive today. i hope the mama cat doesn't do a great job of hiding them. i want to see them before we leave on tuesday.
