QUIET HOUSE

AND EXHAUSTED DOGS ... JUNE 26 2013 ...

Kids flew back to Arizona yesterday.   Seems so strange to have an empty house. No one to sit on the deck with, drinking coffee / tea / whatever. 


Bossman will have to do his own mowing.  I don't have anyone to clean up after me, or go shopping with.  Or just shot the breeze with.  Dogs aren't very good at drinking coffee and shooting the breeze.


Sam and Coco love people, love company and all the extra attention, someone else they can con in to letting them in and out, which they are experts at.

Today they are sleeping.  Completely exhausted.  They will probably sleep for the rest of the week. 

Now for a very sharp change of pace.  That was quite a storm that moved in last evening.  Wind, rain, lightning, thunder.  Lightning struck one of our trees dead-center, quite a boom and vivid red flash when it hit.   

The dogs are afraid of loud noises, and the thunder was really loud.  They were climbing all over us, shaking like crazy.  When the lightning hit, I thought they were going to go thru the roof.

That is another reason they are sleeping today. 

We were needing rain, but not a gusher.  Had more storms during the night that wakened me. Very gloomy today.  Guess we are in for several days of rain.

Kids left to go home at just the right time. 

I am going to spend the day playing catch-up.  Have to get ready for the Cain Art Festival the middle of July. 


So it's welcome back to the real world.  Be safe, stay dry and God Bless.
