Now that you mention them, I haven’t seen any rabbits or hares since we moved here. Odd.

The forest is starting to get loud again, the birds are coming back.

This is the most important part, I’m so happy you both are so compatible. Dang about the bait and switch though.

Are you sure they are moles? We get burrowing crawdads here and they make mounds as well. You live around water as well.

I was fourteen when I ate that double banana split, kids that age have very little sense or decorum.

Good on them for recognizing your hard work!

One envelope is one serving. You might have to cut back a little on the water so it will fit in your mug, but it is one serving.

That’s something I miss as well. There are a lot of good places in Charleston and a variety of different places in Logan, but I really miss taco trucks and good Mexican. OTOH, they do Asian food better than AZ so I guess its a wash.

I really hope you come out on top at the end.

Many rescue critters don’t come with names attached, you had no way of knowing. We went to see Barkley and pet the kitties today and then the mail came with the bed Hubs had ordered for him so he went back and gave Barkley his bed. He said Barkley seemed to like it so the bed belongs to Barkley and will go with him.

I really hope someone else suitable adopts him, Hubs can’t get anyone out to measure the gate for three weeks and of course it isn’t a standard size so will have to be specially made. That’s a long time for an old dog to sit in a shelter even with regular visitors and treats.

I’m seeing them too!

Yum on the cake, do you listen to them? If they are bubbly, they need ten more minutes.

After all that, I’m so happy you have Ms Dog for entertainment. Watching critters play is always super relaxing for me.

So today has been a day of high sloth. After the weekend’s happenings, I’m feeling pretty demoralized but tomorrow will be almost 70F and I will March forth.

We saw the National Guard in Logan, it looked like they were helping with that flooded apartment building I posted about- it was hard to tell because they were just standing around in the parking lot. The mud has been cleaned up as well as possible, the next good rain will finish the job.
