...Lady digs another hole under the fence. And she doesn't even do it in the same area twice in a row! LOL....she really IS a smart little thing. I really wish she were older and more settled down so we could keep her. She has the sweetest disposition and always seems happy. The only time she gets timid is if you really yell at her. I only did it once but the Beast has done it a couple times now. She hides under the bed or else lays down with her back to the Beast. She KNOWS when she has done something wrong. She gives herself away because she will approach you with her body kind of low to the ground and her tail between her legs. All you can do when you see that is say, *Ut oh! What have you done NOW?*
She really does need a younger family or a farm to romp around. They would love her. Even a farm would benefit from having her since her natural herding instinct would be easy to kick in and since she's so smart, she is trainable. The sign he's put up will be seen tomorrow and it has my phone number on it (leave it to the Beast to try to make ME talk to whomever calls when it's HIS church people, hopefully, that will call). I have a plan, however. I am going to leave MY phone with him when Cee and I leave for Chewlee's birthday party and I will take his. If he gets a phone call from someone on his phone, I will just call him and let him know who it was. Ha! Ha! Ha! The joke is on him. He's just trying, in his not so subtle way, to involve me with his church people. I am just glad he hasn't started preaching to me. That would really piss me off.
I made my Southern fried chicken today and it turned out just wonderful. I liked the *texture* of the egg wash with buttermilk. It really did hold on when you dipped the chicken and that made the flour bond well. None of the crust came off during cooking and I just put down a nice thick layer of paper towels to soak up the excess grease instead of putting it into the oven. We nuked a couple of potatoes and I heated up some beets to finish off the meal and it was great. Very filling (I did no snacking at all after that) although the Beast had a piece of cake and a glass of milk before he went to bed. But he's a bottomless hole at times although I admit the chocolate cake he ate looks yummy. Almost like a *Death by chocolate* cake....LOL.
It didn't hit the 80's around us, which wasn't a surprise since it was so overcast. It may have gotten hotter down in some of the valley areas but that was THEIR problem if it did. Our high was 78 with a brisk breeze so it was the perfect temperature in the house all day. We just kept the screen doors open and even my deep frying didn't make the kitchen area the least bit uncomfortable. Nice.
The Beast didn't do too much today because he said his back and his knee were both killing him. He finally went and soaked in the bathtub for a bit and put that ointment on his knee. I asked him if he wanted me to put any on his back but he had the heating pad on it and felt that would be better to relax the muscles. I think the last time, he had me put some on his lower back and then he used the heating pad on it....or tried to, anyway. LOL! He forgot that even on the lowest heat, when he has ANY kind of ointment on the area, it amplifies the heat about tenfold.
Well, it's late and I need to jump in the shower and set my hair for Chewlee's party tomorrow. I have to decide what I want to wear, too. It's not like I have that big a selection that still fits me but it's still a chore for me to decide. I want to be comfortable but not too hot or too cool. Decisions, decisions, decisions! LOL.
Love you all. Hope you have a great weekend with some fun for you besides the chores you MUST do. Be good. Be careful. ***Hugs***
