Lazy Days

Days after the tree was cut up and the backyard was cleaned up with most of the tree limbs put back on the berm, it couldn't stop raining. It would be hot and sunny, small if any chance of rain then unexpectedly it would be a downpour. Luckily on Thursday I was able to get the lawn mowed. For some reason I have now fallen back into being non-motivated. Nothing I try seems to interest me for long.

Another Storm

I forgot to post these photos of Watson and Henry yesterday. Even though it was heating up outside by 10am they both enjoyed their time outside. They didn't want to come inside. Maybe because we were still about 3 hours away from getting our electricity turned back on where the AC would work.

Another Storm More Damage

Tuesday night around 6:30pm while watching the Reds game on tv, the hard rain was so loud that I turned to look out the patio door as the rain was torrential against the door and windows. I WAS SEEING THAT BANK OF TREES DOING THINGS I HAD NEVER SEEN BEFORE and I KNEW I was in trouble. About the time I said the word trouble to myself I watched that tree fall in slow motion right at me. Luckily the internet cables held the tree up before it could hit my fence, just like it did in November 2021.

Ava Gets A New Collar

With so many dogs and hounds over the years from puppy to adult I have a lot of collars to choose from. Today I found a brand new collar in my collection because Henry kept losing it when he was wrestling with Walter and Watson a couple of years ago. Walter would pull it off of him. The choker collar on Ava I had used for 10 days was the perfect length as the one she came with would not stay at the correct length. As you can see, she has a lot of room to grow into this one. Walter had to jump in the crate to check out the collar but my camera missed him doing that.

Ava Recovered & Weeds Are Gone

Tomorrow will be 10 days from her spay surgery. That was how long she was suppose to wear the cone, all walks by a leash, contained if not confined. The cone went off a day or two after she got home. She did drag the leash around if I wasn't walking her for about a week. She would lay down and show me her scar without me asking every day. That has healed completely with another five days of antibiotics. She has been "rough housing" with Watson and Henry for the past couple of days. You will notice her left leg where the cut was, has healed also without any swelling. She should be good to go now for the next 10-15 years.

A Lot Done These Past Two Days

By nature I think I am pretty pro-active. I might be lazy at times but once I decide to do something I am pretty focused on getting things done. I've been that way for as long as I can remember. Today was one of those days, which I will explain after I show you what happened yesterday.

A Long Day Watching TV

I'm old. I've seen a lot, experienced some. Until today I had never ever watched a Congressional Hearing from start to finish, even a video of it later. So by the time I write this on Monday, the day is almost over but still time to hopefully get some outdoor photos. That doesn't mean it was a boring or quiet day ... oh no!!
