Everything put on hold for the baby...
I'm sure some of you thought I had dropped off the face of the earth. Not true...I just haven't been at my computer hardly at all. I got a dachsund puppy and it's pretty much like having an infant. Actually that would be underestimating her. No infant could chew through electrical wires in 20 seconds, consume record amounts of shedded cat hair, or catch and eat a live mouse...I'm talking swallowed whole (I swear, that actually happened). I would like to put up pictures of her, but I have no digital camera. I'm sure it could be arranged, though.
I really don't do well in the heat. I wake up and immediately feel like doing nothing. I just have no energy. Of course that could also come from Margot (the puppy) waking me up several times a night then keeping me awake until she settles down. I can't get mad at her, of course, that's just how puppies are. But the hundred-plus-degrees heat doesn't help.
I can't wait for autumn, my favorite time of year; "perfect sweatshirt weather" a friend recently called it. Of course, the second it gets hot every year I can't wait for autumn, then winter, beautiful winter.
Oh yeah...today was that shimmery whitish color that radiates from the blacktop when it's really hot out.
