We put the first coat of sealer on the floor in the den yesterday, and today I went to check how it turned out. In the corner, I found a wet spot – cat pee. Argh!

We rented a car for the occasion, which was really nice. To understand why, you have to understand the kind of car Daniel and Tree have. They call it a guaguita and it’s hard to compare it to…
