Happy Day All!
Everyone sounds good and I'm glad no flooding in Phoenix.
Went to the shelter yesterday and luckily only one of the 8 big dog pens had to be cleaned thoroughly - pick up whatever, spray down, then spray parvo/disinfectant mix, wait 10-15 min, then rinse, squeegee and then dry with towels. I usually do through the second rinse. Back isn't up to the squeegee and dry. Will go again tomorrow and then not until we get back around the first of Nov.
Then DDIL came with a friend from Korea and her DH. Was a really nice couple - he's retired Air Force like my DH so they had lots to talk about. Plus, my DH was stationed in Korea after the war so they really went at it. I spent most of the time with the A/C guy trying to make the thermostat hook up to the wifi - never did work it out. Phooey!!!!!
Today am doing a little shopping with a friend, then we'll head to Costco after lunch for new tires. This morning must give Charlie a bath - we think he got a little skunked this morning - or close to it. Something sure has made him stink, but not quite as bad as a true, direct skunk spray would. AT least glad of that! Still pretty rank!
Gotta get started. Have a good day, everyone!

Good morning Penny & ATF,
Sunny day today. Currently 68; the high for today will be 81.
Ed, my son, has an appointment today to get medical clearance from his primary doctor to have this procedure done to laser blast the stone. This is a real racket...he didn't need clearance when he went in the emergency room for the pain.
After school today Frankie & Vinny start their bowling season. I believe it's for 10 weeks. This activity is sponsored by the school. I got a request when I get there, can I order them a fat warm pretzel for a snack. On my way home I'll stop and try for my flu shot.
Have a great day!

Boar raccoons have an odor that resembles a skunk. One of my Samoyeds escaped the yard and tangled with one back when I had bigger dogs.
PT and my monthly caregivers group this morning.
The next ten days weather forecast included two days of rain and five consecutive days of snow starting Sunday. Omigosh! I don't remember summer having been here. I think I was sitting with my foot elevated! We were still have snow flurries when I had my foot surgery in May!

Good morning everyone,
Enjoying our daughter's visit. Today DD#1 will be here also. Going with her to a doctor visit because her shoulder still is not right. The girls are going out to dinner in Hollywood at the "Saved by the bell "pop up restaurant. Was a tv show they loved as a kid.
Tonight I will go through more paperwork that is in the filing cabinets. Little by little it will get done in time for safe delivery.
Still no rain here. We might not get any. We need it so bad.

Sue- here is link to the scanner. The arcsoft photo editing program is included. Best Buy loaded the CD on my Windows 10 computer without any issues. It's on sale at Best Buy online or in store. epson.com/For-Home/Scanners/Photo-Scanners/Epson-Perfection-V600-Photo-Scanner/p/B11B198011.
Penny - when are you leaving to go to Florida? I am sure Charlie will enjoy his bath.
Emily- hope Ed gets the procedure soon. It's been such a long time to get this taken care of.
Lin- hope all is ready for your trip. When do you come back? Wishing you a great time.

Good Morning All!
Having a hurry up to wait type morning. Floor guy called me yesterday afternoon to say that he would call me before 6 last night if they were coming to rip out the tile floor today. He didnāt call, so I figured it was postponed. He calls me at 9:00 this morning telling me that he would be here at 10 to start the process. At 9:45 he called me and told me it wouldnāt be today, but tomorrow for sure. Which means that the process will continue into Thursday, which means I have to cancel my cleaning lady and a computer e reader lesson that I made for the same day. What does all of this mean? It means Iām getting closer, but still donāt really know when the flooring will happen. Yes Iām confused, was it always this āiffyā when you are trying to get things done? Am I asking for the impossible? Just tell me when you are going to show up, and then do it. If its next week or in two weeks, I donāt care, just keep to your schedule. Iām sure thatās a simplistic view of this whole thing. Deep breath, relax. . . . .
I think I got a bit rattled this morning when I got a phone call from the lady who takes care of my motherās 94 year old friend. I made a date to take her to lunch on Friday (lord help me I canāt miss that one), and her caregiver called to confirm because she was sitting there all dressed and waiting for me at 8:45 this morning. The caregiver asked me to call her and confirm the day and time with her because they had an argument over it and she didnāt want to look like she called me behind her back. So I waited a half hour and called her, telling her my woes about the floor and I wanted to clear up the āconfusion in my mindā about what day we were going out. I think I pulled it off gracefully.
Now Iām sitting here, finishing a rather cool breakfast and in a minute I will start my day.
Lin have a safe trip, glad the storm didnāt affect you too badly.
Emily enjoy bowling, making more memories, I love the warm pretzel request.
Penny that process at the kennel sounds daunting!
Everyone enjoy their day.

Dayle- remodeling is not fun anymore. Poor workmanship, delays and product quality control issues. Seriously takes the fun out of it. Glad I am not working because the job is much harder now.
Thursday Best Buy tech will be at our house to reset the back of stove trim peice. It's loose and honestly think it was installed in the wrong spot. Will find out tomorrow. I do love the appliances. Especially the double oven. Yesterday had manicotti in bottom convection oven and garlic bread in the top oven. The day before had chicken in bottom oven and baked potatoes in top. Love it.

Today is the big rain day from the tropical storm that us d to be the hurricane in Mexico south of here. Raining hard since early this morning, hopefully letting up with off periods later. The big washes up in Scottsdale are really running and flooding roads.Tucson and Yuma got slammed yesterday. North is bracing. Glad I got my errands done yesterday and can stay tucked in bed with mug of coffee.
It will mostly be gone tomorrow morning when we drop off Micki and fly out. Cooler and quieter week here before we be back.

Library run this morning and a quick trip to DDs this afternoon. delivering one mum plant to DD#1 and a check to DD#2 for water bill for filling the pool in late spring. they have city water and we were expecting this. I got to use the pool a lot more than they did this year. with them working on the rental property it left them no free time. Maybe a quick dip when they got home at night. closing on the house is Friday. Keeping our fingers crossed nothing goes wrong.
It is 86% humidity today and 73Ā° right now but sure feels a lot warmer. Thunder storms later today some may be bad, although they are not talking winds.
I am waiting on my beautician to call me back with appointment for the perm I really really need. We have been playing phone tag.
