Teal Duck Tuesday

[helia]

I'm glad the cat was found, Kitty.
Those little tasks add up, Doggedly.
What movie did you see, L Ann? Nice to have the mammogram behind you.
Hi Vergers! I like lentils in soup, blended or not.
Oh my, kitkat, what a night. I hope you can get a lot of sleep tonight.
Glad you got your van fixed, trissie.

The weather outside is unbearable - unbreathable... Took Dpup out for 5 minutes. That was MORE than enough.
Very humid and hot. 95 F forecasted for tomorrow.

helia looks like you are sharing our weather - be careful out there.
Kittykatt Dpup really surprised me. She listened, tried to get out of wrestling matches (the house is not meant for that), returned to my side. It downed on me: so that's what training does... She is still exhausted although we both had a little nap.
Hope all goes well with the car.

Dogged - you know it: DD's pup walked directly into her crate.
Getting used to new models of cars takes a long time...

I am okay, KitKat, but not 100%. I didn’t sleep great last night but I don’t sleep well once or twice a week anyway so it’s hard to blame it on the travel. I don’t mind the mammogram or the physical or the bloodwork but trying to fit in three early morning appointments so close to vacation was definitely a stretch.

Hi, all. I took Germane out for her carry and took her a lot further than we normally go. The weather was nice while we were out, just humid, and the forecast for tomorrow is appalling, so I knew that we wouldn't be walking tomorrow. So I took the chance that the rain would hold off and brought her into the park for a walk. It was beautiful. The flowers are all in bloom, the trees have taken root and don't look so spindly, the ducks were out on the pond. We came back tired, but it was worth it. We are getting all of the lightening and thunder now that we are safe home.


Tomorrow's forecast is for humidex of 47 C. That's 116 F. It would be bad at any time, but it's our national holiday. There are non-stop activities downtown, culminating in the fireworks at night. People stay for hours. There will be air conditioned restaurants open, but nowhere near enough for all of the crowds to cool down. And normally they would open cooling centres for the homeless people, but it's a statutory holiday so I don't know if they have the staff to do it.

You've got a mechanic that you trust, and reassurance that his costs are in line with the industry, so you've done your due diligence, Kittykatt.

It looks like you're in the heat too, helia. I hope that your tomorrow is better than ours.

kitktat, that sounds dreadful. I think that tomorrow will be a good day to stay inside.

That would finish me off, L.Ann, as I am so not a morning person.

Once the rain got going, it really got into it. We're having quite the show tonight.
