The Cat Door

I finally got the cat door installed. Not bad, it only took about four hours. It wasn't too hard, just follow directions, measure twice, cut once. (Swear, re measure, cut. Swear, re measure, cut. Swear, re measure, cut.) At least it's done. Looks pretty good. I say pretty good, because my dad left me with the genetic imprint of perfectionism. I guess in some respects I am very much like him. Sometimes that's a real problem, others, it's a good thing. I have gotten a grip on my temper through 12 step methods, and a daily dose of medicine. I wonder how Papa would have been, had he been afforded the same opportunities.

Hmm... Kinda got off track... Back to the story. due to a couple of very small errors in cutting and measuring, I will need to fill two places with caulk. they are both about 1/16th of an inch cracks, but in my "Papaism", that's way too much. I had planned to caulk the edges anyway, but now it will just take a little more. Meh.

3:30 in the afternoon. The sky has gotten quite overcast, and the temperature is about 42 degrees. The weather forecast says to expect moisture in the form of light snow tonight. Ya never know... You know how those media types lie. (smirk)
