So, the weight loss is not going so well, but at least I'm not gaining. I just have been having trouble sticking to my diet - I'll do okay for a while, then not so great for a while. But that's okay, I'll get back to it. Really, I will. I haven't been reading much, which is really weird for me, but today I dug out Rick Steves'
Europe 101, a sort of summary of European history and art work for travelers. It's just hitting the highlights, nothing too detailed, but it takes the major things you might see while you travel, and puts them into historical context. I'm only up to ancient Greece, but there was a chapter on the stone age and cave art, and mention of standing stones like Stonehenge, and a summary of Egyptian art, since so much of it has ended up in museums across Europe. It's pretty interesting and shows a definite sense of humor, so I expect to keep reading it this week.
I was sitting in my library earlier and had the window open because it was so nice out. The cats were just fascinated by the birds outside. They love sitting in the window and looking out, and I got some decent pictures of them, although mostly they're facing away from the camera. I should have gone outside and shot some through the window, but I was feeling lazy, so I didn't. Anyway, if I can get them uploaded, I'll post a few.
Here's Peanut:
And Cashew: 
And finally, can someone explain how they can be so adorable one second, but by the time I snap the picture, I get this?
Well, boys will be boys, I guess.
