We got home yesterday to a very excited puppy, just all wiggly and jumping and crying to welcome us home. The  cat, of course, didn't care... so long as we fill his dinner bowl. Oh well...

Today I washed our cars. Well, the sap and little fruit berries had fallen on the cars, and I had to wash off the fruit acids to keep them from eating through the cars' bodies. But, as it always happens, because I washed the cars we ended up with severe thunderstorms that actually flooded our yard for a time, sent water streaming down the sides of the road like little rivers, severe thunderstorms which would not have happened had I not washed the cars.

On the other hand, I don't have to do any yard work today because the grass is still soaked. But, I will have to get that done... in some parts of the yard the grass has already grown taller than our puppy!... Imagine, having to use a machete in the far reaches of the back yard to find a Pomeranian...

Tomorrow stars a four-day work week...
