Soo exciting

It was sunny and 70s today, so I took Pepper outside to play. It was probably the first time she's been outside since she was dumped in that park, so she was pretty nervous. It took her almost 5 minutes to come out of her carrier into the pen I set up. She looked/sniffed around a bit, and even hopped up on top of the carrier to get a good look around, but mostly she sat in the shade, groomed, and watched the world go by. She didn't nibble on any grass, or even the nice juicy dandelion I made sure to set the pen up over. She never really relaxed but she didn't look majorly stressed either, so we stayed out for about an hour - I laid on a towel next to the pen and read a book - before I climbed in, opened the carrier, she hopped right in and we went upstairs. I think it was a lot to take in at once.

Then I napped on the couch - and work up at 6:30! oops. Guess I needed the sleep.

So far my happening Saturday evening has consisted of litterbox duty, then mopping my kitchen and reading while it dries. It does smell nice though. Oh - and I cleaned out the fridge. (When your KoolAid tastes vaguely of leftovers, it's time to go hunting.) I'll take the trash out before bed.

Hee hee - Pepper is sniffing at the folded up pen and sitting by the front door - maybe she's decided that she LIKES outside.
