Week 11

Welcome back and happy Tuesday!  We're all just plugging along as usual trying to pivot as the weather shifts around and throws us curve balls here an there.  This is such a busy month it feels like it should be over already but we still have a couple weeks to go. 

Until then, here are last week's pictures:

Day 69- Monday, 3/10/25

I started my day out playing with Rusty before heading to work and then at work we are dealing with a bacterial contamination in what should be or "clean" culture room. For now everyone using this room has now switched these lovely disposable lab coats until it gets resolved and they are a bit stiff for my liking but necessary.  We are pretty sure the source was from a student bringing in environmental "dirty" samples in that should have been processed out in our larger main room with dedicated bench space for that kind of work.  Live and learn!

Day 70- Tuesday, 3/11/25

I put in an work order today to have our pool's water-feature wall/jumping ledge repaired.  The mortar holding the stone is failing and we're starting to lose pieces come off.  Now is the perfect time to secure it before  prepping for swim season.

 

Day 71- Wednesday, 3/12/25

Wednesday at work we have big thunder style clouds moving in that will bring another rain system through.  They looked very pretty on campus against the nice blue sky.  Then speaking of failing mortar, I'll be spending some time at multiple dental appointments here to have old fillings replaced that are crumbling.  Apparently they are not meant to last forever. *sigh*

Day 72- Thursday, 3/13/25

Today was a very stormy day and Justin was dealing with the crazy weather while working outside at his rec center job.  Later Bailey and I took advantage of a break in the storm to head out on a walk but still managed to get a little wet towards the end when the rain started up again.  It was also very windy out and made it hard to sleep at night.

 Day 73- Friday, 3/14/25

Happy Pi day!  To celebrate I picked up a couple mini pies for dessert.  It was also Bark Box day for Bailey so she got some fun spring toys and treats.  Tonight's Friday night movie was one I didn't know much about until the Oscars and it was better than I expected.  Kieran Culkin won for best supporting actor in this film.

Day 74- Saturday, 3/15/25

No more rain for now so we had a nice weekend after the mountains got dumped on by snow overnight which is rare for March here but also nice for avoiding a drought this year.  Here in the valley we enjoyed a couple days of nice spring weather which meant I could get more yard work done.  I love seeing all the trees in bloom with so many different colors in my yard and around the neighborhood.  Bailey herself is really enjoying this hard plastic flower chew toy that came from her Bark Box.  It's great that it keeps her so entertained.

Day 75- Sunday, 3/16/25

Lazy Sunday vibes here in between loads of laundry.  Rusty is great at always squeezing in his catnaps usually in Justin's room but today he's back in the office where I'm working on the computer to edit some pictures.  I also started this Netfix series today and so far it's pretty good and based on a true story.

 

Another week come and gone.  Thanks for stopping by and see you in the next one.
