Thinking of you and that sweet baby! Extra hugs to Har!

It has been a very strange weather day. Stormed earlier, gave Har her first scare. Of course, it had to thunder very loud on our walk this morning, had some lightning too. And it was close!! I did the counting thing. Then the downpour came. Adrian was waiting for us in the garage, I told him to bring out my soap, shampoo, and towel ;)

Then, the sun would be out for a bit, and it would get dark as night again, then the sun would come back out...all day long!

It's 80 degrees, humid, and cloudy right now, I finally broke down & turned the air on. It got way too hot in the house...

We still have severe thunderstorm warnings, and a tornado watch is on until 1:00 am.

I missed storms, not dangerous ones, just a real thunderstorm.

Poor Har has never been exposed to a real storm. I wish she could have experienced her first one from inside the house at least.

Anyways, hope you're all doing well & having a nice Sunday!!

I hope it is quickly, cheaply, and easily fixable!

my van sounds worse than a rusty bed spring on the drivers side front! Our resident mechanic says the rubber mount needs greasing, so I am praying he is right. My brother is going to look at it and do some work on the van tomorrow.

Made, the heat and humidity are headed here... dreading it!!!! The weather people keep saying it's a "summer preview" excitedly but NO THANKS! Don't need a preview! Or the main event for that matter, lol!

I am very anxious to catch up on here but we have a new family member that I am very busy with. We got a young dog and I cannot wait to share the story with you on how we rescued it. We are trying to come up with a name and my granddaughter said, "How about Mr's Claus"?! Very tempting but still thinking it over since we have a few names to consider. I just had to share that with you real quick. I just love how Christmas is always on the mind of a 3 1/2 year old!

After reading the store's motto (CBC Radio presents the stories and misadventures of Dave, the owner of the "Vinyl Cafe", the world's smallest record store, where the motto is "We may not be big, but we're small.") I just had to have it!!! This cracked me up. Speaking of "cracked me up," where is RJD? I haven't "seen" him for a while!

we never named a pet until we had it for awhile and got a chance to see what name best suited him/her. Usually within a week a name would suddenly come up that everyone would agree was perfect!
Pocket because she was scared and fit perfectly in my pocket where she liked to curl up and find comfort
Penny because she had these round copper colored spots all over her.
Just wait, the perfect name will come up!
 
That certainly looks ominous!

Here is one pic I took last night. We were with our friends across the street (they have a storm shelter we use). Don't know if you can tell by the picture, but the clouds where swirling, and it looked pretty cool.

Good Morning MMC!!!!! It's going to be a miserable day hear with a high of 90 and high humidity. Someone shoot me now!! So I'm been up for a while trying to get all of my laundry and cleaning done before it gets to hot. The rest of today will be spent in front of the air conditioner working on the computer and maybe watching a Christmas movie. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!

Yes, she is!! I was up with her on & off all night. She would try to burrow near my legs or paw at me during loud thunder & flashes of lightning. At one point, she jumped off the bed & curled up in a corner between the wall & closet :( She had't gone potty since 5:00 that evening, and every time I'd take her out, thunder would boom & she'd high tail it for the door!! Finally, around 3:00 am, the downpour subsided, and I took her out. Feel so bad for her, but these things will hopefully become normal to her after awhile.

Aww the poor thing. Molly acts the same way during a storm. Maggie will just burrow under the covers but Molly is a nervous wreck and can't stay in bed with us. She runs around in circles, not knowing where to hide. I heard about something called the Thundershirt for dogs. Its supposed to help them with their anxiety. I have to look in to that.
I will tell you something that we do. We have a little plastic box, its basically a doggy litter box. I only take it out when they absolutely refuse to go outside, like during a thunderstorm, or snowstorm or even just a heavy downpour. I place it by the back door and slap some newspaper in the bottom of it. When I put them in and say "go potty", they go. lol After the weather clears up, I put it away. Hope you don't think I'm crazy! They are tiny dogs and it works well.

Congratulations on your new addition :-D
 
Have a great day with your friend. I am sure it will be a fun time, plus good food! Where are you going for lunch? Have a glass of wine for me, LOL!

Good morning, my friends!!


Happy Monday!

It is a cloudy day, we still have a flash flood watch throughout the evening. Looks like the rain will stick around awhile. The humidity is here as well.

I have some studying to do today, and lots of laundry to fold. Yay! Haha!!

Tomorrow, I am going to meet an old friend for lunch in Arcadia, which is about an hour away. It should be fun to catch up! I haven't seen her since our wedding.

Hope you all have a nice day!! Stay safe, dry, and cool!

xx
