One last visit with the pets next door

Living in Wilsonville has been glorious – not in small part due to having some lovely neighbors. We give each other our space, but we do make time to connect every so often – and I tend to get recruited to watch their pets pretty regularly when they take weekend trips.

With a heavy heart, I had to say goodbye to this little micro-community that we’ve made.

Bethan and Courtney made dinner one evening, and invited me over – orange chicken with fried rice and broccoli, which just happens to be one of my favorites, sweetened an already sweet deal. I tried to help with the cooking, but instead ended up just cuddling with the various fuzzy roommates as a lovely chance to say adieu before I ventured forth.

Petsitting… or being sat on by pets?

After coming back from Massachusetts after Thanksgiving, I swapped with my neighbors – they left for their own adventure right when I got back!

Not usually something worth commenting on, but in this case it was a bit impactful since I got the chance to pet-sit for them! Oregano and Poppy are exceptionally cute kitties, and I very much enjoyed getting to swing by every afternoon after work!
