Good Morning and Welcome to Saturday the 24th day of September, 2016.
Well we had rain overnight and it was raining at 5:30 a.m. when Alvin and I first were up and about.
Later being now 9:00 a.m., the skies have cleared and the sun is shining.
We are just getting ready to leave for our regular six week pedicure and “anal gland squeeze” for Mr. Alvin.
Oddly enough the bum thing does not bother him but his nails being trimmed does.
Now I do get it as a couple of times they have nicked the quick (passed the nail).
His “quicks” are longer than usual.
But I think it startles him more than actually hurts too much.
They are so good at our Vet and treat us, him like family.
He is good for his shots and the bum thing but just does not care too much for getting his nails done.
Funny thing too …. at the Doctor’s they clean and check his ears and he does not fuss too much but at home YIKES.
Later this morning Elton is coming to spend part of the day with me and Alvin as his parents are taking a nephew mini golfing.
Nephew’s birthday was beginning of September but it is sometimes hard to schedule with kids these days.
They are so busy with all of their different activities and their friends.
I am happy that it is the weekend.
Pleased that the sun is going to shine as I must start preparing things for the next season.
I do not wish to trim and pull flowers and bushes because they are looking so good as yet.
With all this moisture they are lasting longer.
As I was reminded by one of my gardener friends …. most years we stop watering once the temperature starts to cool off and that is one of the main
reasons they are finished.
I must trim my big tree out front.
Last year I did it a couple of times by now and this year with all of the rain I have not.
Well it is almost time to leave for the Vet.
I hope that you all have an amazing Saturday.
Happy Saturday.
Special Hello to: my fellow bloggers …. keep writing.
Always, Carol and Alvin
