MELTING

When its hot around here...

the laptop I work on sort of melts down.

Its old, sits on the patio where the heat is present and we all know that computers do not like heat.

I don't like heat!

But the fact of the matter is that here is where we are

and when the weather is warm, 

it refuses to cooperate.

It suddenly shuts down.

I suppose its better than blowing up.

But it makes blogging a bit dicey.

I never know if I will get to finish a piece or not before it clicks off...

let alone visit blogs that I want to read.

Sheesh.

 

So not much is going on here.

There was one tiny thing worth a giggle though...

When Turkey was here visiting us

one of his favorite things to do is take a bubble bath.

Being the good mommy she is, Bear sat on the closed toilet

while he played in the tub.

The man and I were in the kitchen.

Roxy wanted a "cookie".

She knows the rules for getting one;

sit and take the cookie very gently...

then take the cookie outside to eat... not on the rug.

She sat, she delicately accepted her cookie and ran for the rug.

The man shouts at her

"Hey! You get outside!"

In the bathroom Turkey turns to his mom and says

"Ut-oh, grandma's in trouble!"

I miss that kid.

He makes me laugh.

Fall is suppose to fall on Friday.

Unfortunately, 

here it looks like an extended summer instead.

Meh.

I'm ready for the smell of wood smoke

and burning leaves... though they don't allow you to burn leaves here.

I'm ready for crisp morning walks that get you moving to stay warm.

I've been seeing pumpkins on vines.

Soon we'll be waiting for the ring of the door bell...

and the giggles of trick or treaters.

They do still do that here.

Yay!

I just hope that Roxy doesn't scare them too badly.

She loves to bark at the door.

Otherwise the only other thing going on here are more 

dumpster funerals.

The mouse count is up to eleven.

So it goes.
