Eddie's New Hangout

On these cold winter days, Eddie's found a new hangout -- the steps up to my work room. Conveniently located just across the hallway from the Monitor heater which simmers along at 66 degrees in an attempt to keep the rest of the house (when we don't have a fire going) somewhere in the high fifties, the steps allow him to move up or down and adjust the amount of heat to his personal preference.

The drawback is that the stairs are dark and so is Eddie. A person (me) is likely not to notice the large furry blob on the steps as she's heading bleary-eyed downstairs to bed.

It was a near thing. Now I turn the lights on and look.

People are so clumsy, thinks Eddie.
