Hello and welcome back! How is it the middle of the month already? We started last week still very hot but ended and are continuing into this week with some nice cool temps. Highs are mostly in the low 80s and it has been a treat. It's so cute to see the pets gets all frisky and run around like crazy in the cooler weather. The constant high heat was taking a toll on all of us. I doubt it will remain pleasant for the rest of the month but we'll take what we can get.
Here are last week's pictures:
As the sun rises on a new week the temps start to rise as well. Today and tomorrow are expected to be hot but there is relief coming soon. Over the weekend we started watching this new Netflix limited series that is a murder mystery with a great cast and so far so good. We should be able to finish it within a couple days to find out who done it.
Day 254- Tuesday, 9/10/24
Bailey enjoys Justin being home. He's her go to afternoon playmate and the alternate evening walker. She's also quite fond of rawhide bones which is great because they keep her from chewing on other things like furniture. We give her a new one on Fridays and it takes her just about a week to finish so that works perfectly. In addition they help keep her teeth clean by removing tarter as she chews so it's win-win!
Day 255- Wednesday, 9/11/24
Wednesday at work I spent most of my day in the dark on this fluorescent scope reading the last of the slides needed to wrap up the data for our current grant. Feels good to finally be done with that part. Look how cute my scope is all lit up like a little robot. Back at home, as the sun sets, a gentle delta breeze kicks in. This is the start of our cool down and it's wonderful to be able to open the windows and enjoy that amazing fresh air blowing through the house.
Now that it is cooler Rusty has been running around like crazy racing up and down these stairs and also playing tackle with his fish. I caught him in a moment of rest looking very sphinx like. Cooler weather also perfect for warm comfort food so I made a tortellini dish for dinner tonight .

Day 257- Friday, 9/13/24
It was a peaceful start to my work day. With fewer light hours in our days nearing fall I'm usually leaving the house for work right at dawn when all is still quiet in the neighborhood. Later back at home when the sun was setting it lit up the nose and paw art Bailey has crafted on our sliding glass door. I forgot how this can be a constant thing and almost pointless trying to keeping the slider clean. She looks so proud of her masterpiece and that tongue cracks me up.🐾😄
Day 258- Saturday, 9/14/24
Last night we streamed this newly released bike movie and it inspired John to work on his bike today. It's still his goal to be able to ride it before the new year and he was trying to make some pedal adjustments that might help. Justin and I spent a good part of the day looking at used cars. Time to get that boy his own ride.
Bailey is in an "auto sit" waiting for me to say "OK" before she can go through the door threshold which is something we've been working on at home as instructed to do in puppy class. She's pretty much got it down but does have to be reminded from time to time. This is first thing in the morning and she's wanting to go out and eat her breakfast. Food driven dogs are the easiest to train. Later I worked on wrapping presents for an upcoming birthday and Justin shared some of the pictures he took this week with me so I'm sharing them here.
That's all for this week and hope to see you back in the next one.
