A non-vacation

I thought I would check in today because there was no blog yesterday. Just a lot of things going on.

Got up late, found the reason for some pesky fruit flies, mowed the lawn, bottled beer and so forth.
-----------------
Blake - After $1,200 the verdict was a non verdict. No one knows for sure what was wrong but he is back to normal now and has two different pain meds . . . . . not that I know when he is in pain but . . . . there they are in case. Metacam and Tramadol.

All I know is that I drove through a Culvers drive up and the woman was all OOOOO what a cute doggie and then an older woman came to the window and want all oooo what a cute doggie and the next thing I know I'm sitting there with a dumb ol' cheeseburger and Blake is in the back seat with his own bowl of free custard.

I guess I was not cute enough for free custard. Maybe I should have shaved?

sigh!

Columbus got down to 32 degrees at 6:44 this morning. brrrrrrrr it got cold last night, 23 degrees in Chetek (near Wausau) 28 in Rhinelander.

Has anybody noticed that Survivor is lucky? Twice now there have been tsunami's that destroyed filming locations just months after filming the non-scripted show.

Nice article called "Yet another psychodrama looms for Favre" not for or against Favre, just telling you like it is.

"No one will be stunned if Favre throws three picks when the Packers visit Monday. Even his haters will watch. Because he might just throw six touchdowns passes as well. The electric way Favre rallied Minnesota Sunday will only add to the buildup. But remember this too: When Favre gets too emotional, you never know what you’re going to get. The Good Brett or the Bad Brett? The genius improviser or incorrigible risk-taker?"

As for "vacation". More like a few days off in a row actually. Vacations are "fun". This is just a string of days off in a row. Not that that is a bad thing but . . . well you know.

I have to take down my photos at Starbucks today, booo hooo. While in town I'm going to Menard's to get wood for building Blake a little step stool for getting into the car. His back legs just can jump that high anymore.

Also have to find a fireplace guy. After I got the pilot light on our gas fireplace going it still won't light! I THINK it is the remote control which has " 256 unique security codes". WHY would you need 256 unique security codes on a fireplace remote control????? Do people drive past house lighting peoples fire places. Some sort of passive aggressive terrorism?

And how do I enter a new code? And what was the old one? I had to change the batteries so it probably lost the super secret code it was holding.

---------------------

I'll have to get out and take some photos at some point.

OH - DJ is desperately looking for another job, she has burned out from her current job after like 30 years and needs something new. If anybody knows of any openings for ANY job you will get a case of beer . . . . . hmmmmmm that really didn't sound very professional did it.

A case of wine!

--------------------------

That's it - have a nice Wednesday!
