Hello and welcome back. All last week was brutal with the triple-digit heat so we didn't get out to do much. Thankfully this week we are getting a good break with the delta breeze cooling things a bit. It's pretty sad when 98 degrees sounds good and feels so much better.
Here are last week's pictures:
Day 190- Monday, 7/8/24
We're doing a whole lot of play and exercise inside the nice cool house. Bailey can't understand why walks are just not an option right now even after the sun goes down but we do have a big open downstairs where she can really run and play fetch to get that energy out.
Day 191- Tuesday, 7/9/24
Target run and done! It's nice and cool in the store too and I'm filling my cart with cool item to make cool and refreshing meals to eat. And then there is Bailey with all that pent up energy just so happy to see anyone one of us return from anywhere. LOL! She is jumping for joy and ready to come back inside now that I'm back from the store.
Day 192- Wednesday, 710/24
I had to switch to ice coffee in the mornings and am really looking forward the cooler weekend and start to next week. Our back yard does get some decent shade now and if we wait long enough for that shade to cool a bit I can take Bailey out for about a 10 minutes to play in the grass. That is it though and then we are both spent from the heat even in the shade.
She loves to have some lap time when I get home from work even if she can't really fit on my lap anymore. She's also still an aggressive chewer even though she's no longer teething. That is just the way labs are and the reason why we have so many chew toys for her. Rusty loves to watch her from afar in his nice safe room. One of these days her energy level will be a better match for him.
Day 194- Friday, 7/12/24
This afternoon John gave Bailey a nice refreshing shower. She obviously no longer fits in the sink for a bath which she misses but doesn't mind the shower at all. We have this lick pad that suctions to the wall and is covered in peanut butter that helps keep her still and entertained. It works great! Later it was time to relax with a nice cold drink. TGIF!
What is this world coming to? Our politics have gotten so out of control. On a happier note the clouds came in today to help cool things off but even still ice cream sounded good to have while watching this movie. Challengers was actually better than I expected but did have an ending that made us ask, "Is that it?"
I turned on my oven and made brownies in the cool of the morning so we could have them as dessert for Sunday dinner tonight. Sadly Bailey had a rough day. She just couldn't keep any food down and was feeling lethargic. Thankfully she perked up at dinner time and was able to keep the small meal we gave her down and then a pupsicle calming treat later. So glad it ended there or we would have had to take her to the emergency vet. As for us, once she was settled, we enjoyed a nice grilled chicken dinner with the family.
That wraps up another full week. Thanks for stopping by.
Eek! That heat sounds nuts!! Hope Bailey is feeling better!!
