That's not a lot of time to recover between trips, L.Ann, but I'm sure that it's worth it. :)

Ah, kitkat, you bring back memories of my flooding-the-house washer and my burning-down-the-house dryer that I had in my house. Put me off of refurbs for a very long time. But at least when I gave in and bought new, the new ones worked consistently. I'm sorry that you have to buy a new dryer.
I go to visit my db twice a year. I try to time it outside of summer so that Germane won't be in a solar oven when I have to run in to go to the washroom, but outside of snow season so I'm not driving in a snowstorm. Also outside of tourist season. Quebec City is a very popular place, and the hotels can fill up at weird times of the year.

Tuesday
Heart pill and peanut butter for Germane
Put on a pot of coffee
CUOP

15:
Count Germane’s pills
Pill count:
Heart: 16 - good until Sept. 24
Apoquel: 11 - good until Sept. 29
Benedryl: full bottle
Don't need to order pills until after I return
Cut up a fleece throw for Germane for the trip

Spiffed self
Breakfast for Germane
Put away dry dishes

15 X 2:
Cleaned up after Germane:
Picked up 5 pee pads
Washed floor
Went to put down fresh pee pads and found two more places where she had peed off the edge
Discarded 3 more pee pads
Washed floor
Put down fresh pee pads

Oh, that's good, L.Ann.
I have put a hold on for Mad Mabel with my library, but it's going to be some months before I get it.

LAnn they are making a movie out of Theo... (I kind of expected that...)
I have not read The Correspondent or Mad Mabel... but will.
I LOVED The Calamity Club! Just recommended it to a friend:)

Quebec City is gorgeous, Dogged! I experienced it in stilettos (I was young and dumb...) - I don't recommend it.

Back from doggie walk. Had a brief nap before. Getting DGD for a bit.
