We missed you again! We left this morning and got home a little while ago. You got a tiny little bit of rain last night and it was cold and clear this morning. I hope all was good when you got home.
NF is very outgoing and makes friends everywhere she goes. One of her friends had a camera with filters and shared some of his pics. This is my fav:
As long as I have your attention, is it normal for folks in your neck of the woods to put their electrical outlets out of reach of normal sized folks?
Yeah…I did that once and didn’t like it at all. The part where we rolled across a field and ended up upside down was my least favorite part. Well, that and the part that I forgot to get my weed before the car was towed. I wasn’t stoned when I had the accident but I really wanted to be afterwards.
Moving sucks. You have my sympathy.
So anyways. I am home now. It was an easy drive with not nearly as much traffic as we hit going to Dallas.
Dallas freeways are horrible! It has toll roads that require transponders, left side exits, no exit numbers or mile markers and A, B, C, D’s added to the random numbers they did use along with paragraph long street names.
I was not a fan.
Hubs spent the entire time I was gone looking at homes and is planning to go back to WV on Saturday. (I will not be going, I need to deal with things around here. While there are some things I don’t trust his judgement on, I do trust him to find an acceptable place for both of us.)
Well, that and taking GG to the vet for a check-up. Hubs wants to get sedatives for GG on the drive when we move. George is a horrible traveler, the panting and drooling starts after he’s yelled his voice out, he will need some chemical aid for the trip.*
I understand the vet visit was filled with much GG admiration because it took 6 vet techs to weigh him…and that took a bit of time because they all had to fuss over him and of course he wasn’t going to sit quietly while being admired, he was going to walk under hands with his tail up or give them his belly. There was also a hands-on consult with another vet as to which sedative would be best for him. Hubs said that consult mostly involved ear and cheek rubs, but there were a few belly rubs too.
I’m slowly unpacking, things are getting done and laundry is sloshing. When I got home, the first thing I saw was fucking weeds all over the place and dead plants in the front beds. OK, well the weeds happened because it rained so much and this is the desert. Water makes everything grow really fast.
The dead perennials in the front beds had taken off because of the rain, but once they got started…something happened and they didn’t get water. They will probably come back when they start getting water again and hubs is out dealing with the drippers as I type, but that is so him. He doesn’t look at plants and trees and shrubs because he doesn’t care about them, so of course he didn’t notice until I pointed it out.
*We did briefly consider one of us flying with him, but he won’t fit under a seat so unless we buy him his own ticket, he will have to travel in the baggage hold. While we are willing to consider buying him his own ticket, we also know that pets and valuable musical instruments have been banished to the cargo hold when planes have been overbooked and our cats don’t ride in cargo holds. Cat. Fuck, I miss her so much.
