I know that you're going to have an amazing trip. You done so many preparations. Did you manage to get it all done? Since you did so many wonderful extras for you neices and nephews, I wonder if they will have any surprises for you?
I agree with putting the kitty in the box several times. We still do this with Riley whenever we move his box. Since we now take him camping sometimes we refresh his memory in the camper too. I also suggest that you take Pearl for rides in the car periodically. It is much less tremadic on them when it is time for the vet. I've always carried Riley around the house. He will lay on his back in my arms just like a baby, has ever since we got him. It's a little harder now that he is 11 lbs though. speaking of Riley, he is peaking outside from under a curtain and there are birds on the lawn getting him all excited. His tail is thumping and he's meowing

He'd love to get out now, but hopefully that won't happen. He's an indoor cat and always has been. He has managed to sneak out several times lately and I suspect that there are a couple of 4 year olds responsible for that. He knows that I feed him at 10 PM. If he's missing he will always show up at the door at 10PM on the dot

I have no idea where he keeps his watch
I need to jump in the shower and get Colby off to have his feet checked out. Then I need to pick up cat food (
Walmart doesn't carry Riley's Brand). I think we'll quickly run into Kohl's too then off to get parts for the 4 wheeler. Hopefully home by nap time. Logan's got a cold today. I'm sure that letting him play in the brook at the fishing derby and it wasn't warm out at all. He had to stay in the wet pants and shoes for hours
