Electricians, A Low-tech Solution, Voles, Moles and Holes
Well, it's been a busy couple of days. Yesterday I took Mother to see her doctor. She is well. After my usual workout, I stopped in to visit friends D. and D. He is healing after a triple bypass.
Today I was up at the crack of dawn. The electricians were here to upgrade my wiring. They will be back to finish tomorrow and my electricity will be off for at least the morning. That means no computer, no TV, no electric lights, no fridge, no stove, no microwave. What am I going to do? Remember that primitive technology called "books." I'll have to read by natural light. I hope it's sunny tomorrow. I may do a word puzzle or two. I may even take a nap Woo hoo!
After the electricians left I took my little canine daughter for a walk. And I did some raking to get the thatch off my lawn. I noticed there were little tunnels in the thatch and three little holes in the ground. You know what that means. I have a furry litttle creature whose name rhymes with hole under my lawn. Who knows maybe more than one. I hope it doesn't damage my lawn. I wouldn't like to have to get an exterminator in.
I see by Gary's blog that there were multiple celebrations in Victoria last weekend. Happy Birthday Chelsea. Hope it was a good one. And Happy Birthday to Jamie, also. Looking forward to seeing everyone in Victoria this summer. Airline tickets have been purchased online. Ain't technology grand.
Bye for this time.
Animals have these advantages over man: they never hear the clock strike, they die without any idea of death, they have no theologians to instruct them, their last moments are not disturbed by unwelcome and unpleasant ceremonies, their funerals cost them nothing, and no one starts lawsuits over their wills. ~Voltaire, letter to Count Schomberg, 31 August 1769
