I was so excited at the prospect of getting new roommates [View all]

I forgot to put a cup under the coffee maker and coffee ran all over.

But the real point is, I'm probably going to get roommates!!! I think one of my sons and his wife and daughter and two cats will be moving in for possibly six months.

It does mean that I'll again be "grandma in the basement", like it was when another son and his family moved in for nine months a couple of years ago. But I'm great with that. The basement is finished, and it's nice enough, and quiet and private. Last time I set it us like a little apartment, and was very comfortable.

We'll need to re-do the cat situation because their two are strictly indoor cats, whereas mine come and go as they please. We made it work when the other son moved in with his huge dog, so I'm sure mine will quickly adjust to giving up the upstairs again.

I'm very excited!!! I missed a lot of quality grandma time during quarantine. It'll be great to make up that time.
