Week 26

Hello, happy Tuesday, and welcome to July!  Yikes--there is a lot happening in July every single week so I'm not sure I'm ready for all of it, but I will try to take one day at a time.

Until then, see how we ended our last full week in June:



Day 174- Monday, 6/23/25

Since we had a lot of left overs the past few days it was time to change things up a bit. I made tortellini and John make bacon wrapped shrimp for dinner paired with a nice cool salad and some cheesy bread.  It was a great way to kick of the week.





Day 174- Tuesday, 6/24/25

After doing some remote computer work today I had an afternoon annual eye exam to get my prescription updated and pick out some new frames.  They should be here next week and can't wait because I lost my current pair and am trying to survive with just readers now. I need my progressive lens back!  Later at dog training we worked on a "down stay" in the cool grass.  They had to stay for at least 2 minutes and actually all did pretty well.  They look so relaxed here.






Day 176- Wednesday, 6/25/25

Wed at work we only had one lonely sample to run today but that's ok because then there is more time to catch up on other things like fixing and boxing the slides we made last week.  Back at home we started watching season 3 of The Bear which just dropped.





Day 177- Thursday, 6/26/25

Today after work I checked out another dog boarding place that is a similar to Wag in what they offer but on a smaller scale which is more Bailey's style and at a Vet Clinic which adds an extra layer care if needed. Plus it's 1/2 the price.  I liked what I saw and the staff was great so we booked the dates for her to stay here during our Maui trip in August.  For dinner tonight it was too hot to turn on the oven but there was a nice breeze outside so John gilled some burgers for us.  Thank goodness our backyard is shaded in afternoon and evenings 


 

Day 178- Friday, 6/27/25

TGIF!  It was a super hot one today hitting triple digits and when Bailey is hot this is how she likes to lay or "splay" on the cool floors.  I also got some new flipflops delivered today that will be perfect for summer and on the beaches in Maui. 🌴




Day 179- Saturday, 6/28/25

Today I ventured out to Nugget Market so I could stock up on groceries for the week as well as 4th of July potential menu items.  Later I had some bills to pay while in the office and Rusty came to visit me.  I know he really wants me to join him on the couch but I need to get some work done first and then we can chill together.





Day 180- Sunday, 6/29/25

Today was a chore day in the morning while it was still cool out and then later it was all about pet time. Bailey and I went for a walk in the shaded park and played some ball inside under the ceiling fan while Rusty found a cool spot in a closet where he could hang with Justin.  Justin calls this Rusty's parking spot and it fits him perfectly.


That's pretty much wraps up June. Check back next week to see how we kick off July and have a happy and safe 4th!
