I'm sure the Princess was glad they were home and settled in before the thunderstorms hit us last night. I kept losing my TV and had no internet so couldn't write my blog. I tried going to sleep since I figured I would have to wake to use the bathroom but the thunder and lightning didn't allow me that respite. I normally like a good thunderstorm but I am usually asleep and just wake slightly when one rolls in. When it seemed to be right over us at this end of our town, each time the lightning lit up the sky (and the window), the boomer hit right along with it and it jolted me. I thought about the Princess and her saying that Gunner didn't sleep through boomers and felt sorry for her if she had to deal with a scared baby.
It got very warm yesterday....87 that I know of (last time I checked it). I told you the Beast set up an outdoor/indoor temperature thermostat. It surprised me that he didn't turn on the AC until it was dark outside. That was more to get rid of the humidity than the heat, I think. It was already humid in the house. I stayed in my computer room with the door shut so it didn't cool down MY room. I LIKE the heat...LOL.
A woman the Beast knows decided she wanted Lady, sight unseen. She had fond memories of her border collie that died a few years back. She had heard that Lady was sweet natured and smart and that was good enough for her. We did warn her about the chewing problem although that seems to have been less of a problem lately. She has an older dog that she knows will not be around too much longer and she really doesn't want to be mourning another loss without a dog around to help her grieve and get over it. Of course, once she came over to meet Lady, she was in love with her. She decided she is going to call her Ladybug (?) just because she thinks it sounds *warmer*. She lives out in the country and says her nearest neighbor is a cow....LOL. She walks her other dog for the exercise it gives HER she told us. We gave her Lady's bed, collars and the leash and Lady walked off, happily, with her. She jumped right into the back seat of Vicki's car and that was that.
Funny, but the house feels a little empty without her but I think Baron was glad to see her go except that SHE got to go for a ride! LOL! That part he was NOT happy about.
I didn't do much yesterday because I woke up with a stomach ache. I halfway expected to have a case of IBS but, lo and behold, it didn't happen. Perhaps now that the offending section of intestine is gone, I may actually NOT have a problem for the six months the doctor said was all that was needed for it to be over for me. Only time will tell. But I am hopeful.
The Beast is back complaining about his knee but he's not putting the ointment on it. He's afraid he's going to run out of it before he finds more. I told him to go check at Walgreen's and CVS since those two should have anything that Walmart doesn't carry. I doubt his aunt bought it anywhere BUT a drug store. She could be strange that way. I figure I don't have to listen to his moaning and groaning if he isn't even putting the ointment on his knee. Of course it hurts....sheesh. He doesn't even take an aspirin to help alleviate the pain. He's that difficult to get to take any kind of medication that it's no wonder he *forgets* to take his blood pressure pill all the time.
We are supposed to be getting more thunderstorms today so I am going to get this posted now. I love you all and wish you a fantastic week with great weather. I'm not responsible if you DON'T get it but I hope you do. ***Hugs***
