Congrats **Swampy**! My poor boy is eating and drinking, so I don’t have to worry over him getting dehydrated. His face is still a little droopy, and he’s sleeping a lot. ---

**Sari** I had to google this Shar Pei Fever. I’m glad he is better and drinking. It’s super scary when our babies are sick. Lazy day here at Chez Butters. I have done nothing today that was productive. We are expecting rain and more cold. Winter can be over any day now. Happy almost new week. ---

Ah well… I’m just about to head back to bed - I’ll play some games on my tablet till I start dozing off. Then up bright and early for work tomorrow - thanks, Josh! :p:p Thus endeth my weekend. ---

Soccer has been accomplished for another week, took the time between games to do a lot of financial planning for the year, to include my vacation (Combined NE and Colorado-S. Dakota trip) budget. I need one more piece of paper to do my taxes, after owing money last year due to converting my Mutual Funds to Annuitues, I think I should be getting some back this season. Didn’t get out of the gym until after 6pm, so I let Wendy take care of dinner. Got to double nickles today (55F), but there is a chance for snow on the ground by Tuesday. **Sunny** , hope the horsepistol trip is all good news. **Sari** , glad Ripple is feeling better. **swampy** , happy for your election and appointment. Does this mean you have to start acting like a responsible adult? All y’all take care and I’ll catch you on the new MMP. ---

I watched _Where the Red Fern Grows_ this afternoon. I last saw it in the theatre as a kid and cried then. I did again this afternoon. Nelson howled through half of it. He’s taken to barking at dogs on TV of late and this one was full of dogs. After that, I’ve binge watched a series on Qeen Elizabeth the first while working on the studio project. See y’all in the next MMP. ---

Been a little winterlike today. Windy and cool last night. Not sure it reached into the 80s today, just the 70s. 76 degrees now at 5:06pm. Definitely dropped into the 60s last night and will again tonight. People are bundled up like they’re in North Dakota. I saw the same thing in Thailand, 60s temps being treated like an Arctic environment. ---

They do that here in Taiwan as well Of course, we be reason is that there isn’t any heat in the buildings here.
