How's everyone's weekend been?
We've had a great weekend.
Fishing, Movies, Out to eat, Opened the pool, watched a few softball games, Church, and some relaxation.

I hope you had a wonderful weekend also.
 
I bought my wife a Christmas present last month. That's the earliest I've ever got her a Christmas present. If you've ever been to Sonic (fast food drive in), they have this ice called Nugget Ice. It's soft and very chewable. My wife just loves it. So every week I stop by Sonic and pick up a bag for her.
Well I got to thinking and thought I would see how much a nugget ice maker costs. After a long search, $3000 on Amazon. I thought "Oh well, I'll keep buying from Sonic". But then a friend told me about this start up company selling a counter top nugget ice machine for $450. We had just got our tax return check and I thought, why not? So I ordered one. I just got an email saying it will be delivered in July. I didn't expect it so soon, so it looks like it will be a Christmas in July present.

This is not an ad. I just wanted to share. I'm kind of excited because I never get to surprise her with a big gift anymore. Hopefully she'll like.

I just found a huge tick embedded in Harlowe :(
Adi just helped me remove it, kind of scares me that it was as big is it was because that means it's probably been attached to her for a couple of days. She was just groomed on Friday, so I'm assuming it happened shortly after that.
I believe that explains why she's been shaking the past two days. I'm sure the packing doesn't help, but something was off that I couldn't explain. The minute that I found it on her she started shaking even more so and didn't want me touching her there. She seems much better now that we removed it and cleaned it out. Hateful little things!
She is on frontline, and she just had her lymes disease vaccination A week & a half ago.

I'm glad you found it. I'm sure Harlowe is relieved it's out. Poor thing.

Thank you, Rich.
We've caught them crawling on her before but usually are able to find them in time.
I always thought frontline plus was supposed to deter them.
I guess nothing is completely fool proof.

Hate those things too, glad you were able to remove it.
 
Good evening,

I didn't make it here last night, we didn't get home until 1145pm after the game last night. The Black Wolves did not disappoint last night, beating the Georgia Swarm 21-11. They clinched a home playoff game in the process, we are hooked into this sport to the point we are actually considering investing in season tickets for next year. One more home game to go to next Sunday. We can't wait.
It was just a restful day at home today, watched movies and I made my homemade calzone for dinner.
Back to work in the morning, I feel I could use at least one more day off.

Good night, dear friends

Congrats to the Black Wolves!
Glad you're enjoying their games so much.
Mmmm...homemade calzones! I bet they're amazing!
Goodnight, friend.
 
Well, it sure is quiet.....I'm away at a conference all week and I'm sitting here listening to.....silence. That is a sound I haven't heard in a long time. Going to sit here and look at some Christmas stuff until I go to bed....but that won't be long. Good night, y'all.
