YAY!

Awww! Miss Daisy went looking for me to get me out of bed yesterday morning after I'd already left. Poor doggie had just gotten used to having us all back in the house again when she loses another one of her sheep. Is there therapy for Border Collies?

Haha! my SIL's dog, Earl, is part Australian shepard and he bites people. i'm very afraid of him, but SIL and Mose decided it's his instinct to "herd" people. he bites their ankles when they aren't with the rest of the crowd when people come in. but he's also a good watchdog and scary apart from that.

Daisy is such a sweetie...you can see the "concern" for her tribe in her lovely eyes.

Words of advice: DO NOT volunteer to help plan the 50th reunion of your high school graduation.

Week One of Keoni's retirement: he broke his little toe this morning.

Ow!

He's got to work on that swing... ;)

26522. wabbit - 8/11/2011 6:37:07 PM

btw, closing at noon tomorrow! Finally!

26523. arkymalarky - 8/11/2011 7:02:53 PM

YAY WABBIT!

Irene is knocking. We've battened all the hatches...didn't even know we had any. Parked the truck out in the field away from all potential tree falls. Put all the outside furniture in and have our flashlights at the ready.

First test of the new house in hurricane conditions. First test of the generator to see if it will get us through to restoration of power....something that is sure to happen...something that has taken 7 days in past hurricanes.

Wish us luck!

Been wondering about mote folks! Hope all stay safe!

Be well!

Drove with my son down to Fresno on the 19th. He's now in his second week of college and my wife and I are enjoying the expanded space, physical and energetic, that's now available to us. He's called us 1-3 times a day to let us know about each new class and tennis session.

We took two days to drive down, then I briefly revisited the travel style of my youth by visiting Kings Canyon NP, driving back into Fresno (no way around it), having a late lunch with Reid, and then leaving Fresno at 2:30 and driving all night with the Zune plugged into the car stereo to awaken Blair at 7:30 the following morning. Like a night with old friends.

How cool!

26529. thoughtful - 9/1/2011 2:23:43 AM

So we are out of power....have been since Sunday...expect it to continue until this weekend. What fun! I wasn't a fan of hubby's generator....until this week. Now I love it!

26530. arkymalarky - 9/1/2011 3:25:50 AM

I want one and Bob won't get one.

26531. iiibbb - 9/1/2011 9:01:56 PM

We just got one. I went that uses liquid propane because I figure propane will always be available... even when there's a run on gasoline.

26532. iiibbb - 9/1/2011 9:02:53 PM

a 20 lb tank lasts 12 hours. If you already have a propane tank at your house... even better.

26533. iiibbb - 9/1/2011 9:03:24 PM

We got our power back the day before yesterday, but half our neighborhood is still out.
