CoTT 2 House of Cards

[dughlas]

G'day y'all. It's been a busy morning. We were at the park by 5:40am. Walked for an hour than home for a shower before heading to the dentist. I was due for my annual checkup and cleaning. My dentist was four years behind me in high school though only 3 years younger. He was and is a very attractive guy. Also, very married with 4 adult kids. From the dentist I came home and had a bit of brekkie, a piece of blueberry/peach buckle, before taking Thistle to the vet for his annual checkup. Everything is good. His heart murmur is no more pronounced that before. He got his lepto, lyme and bordatella innoculations so he'll be a bit lethargic the rest of today and much of tomorrow. It's well worth it though as Lyme is an issue here this year. Dr Chris said he has lost 2 dogs to kidney failure as a result of Lyme this year. From the vet we headed home with a quick stop at the Ace Hardware to pick up a bag of potting soil so I could pot a pink tropical hibiscus for my deck and prep another pot for 2 lime green sweet potato vines. I may have overdone it a bit as I've a migraine developing but for now we're resting in the shade.

Hey, Dugh and Thistle.      *scratches for Thistle*

Hi Page. I really appreciate the scratches. My dad took me to the vet and now I feel yucky.

Happy Tuesday, all. Hockey starts back up tonight with an exhibition game between Montreal and Toronto. Something to look forward to.   Saw two of my grandkids last night. They didn't stay long because of the extreme heat.  

And a happy Tuesday to you, bro!

Hi, Page.  

[Marty]

After midnight here.

So it's cocoa time and then bed for me.

[Bucket1]

The start of another day  not quite ready to be as busy as Dugh was 

I hope you are all staying cool, in the shade, the aircon or under a sprinkler

Almost as well as I sing.

G'day y'all. Slightly quieter morning. Thistle didn't feel up to walking this morning so I went alone. Set a fast pace, roughly 2.5 miles in 40 minutes. Home again for a bit of brekkie then bedding into the washer and dryer. Now we're sitting in shade relaxing and catching up with the local newspaper. I have an appointment for a 90 minute massage at 10:30. It's been over 8 months since my last so this one is necessary. After that I'll place the weekly phone chat with mum and enjoy a peaceful afternoon. Hope all is well with you.

Mornin'. We could use a bit of rain here so a song and dance wouldn't be amiss.

Poor Thistle hope he feel better soon

Thank you Albert. He's still a bit lethargic but beginning to perk up. A lazy morning suits him nicely. I suspect by mid-afternoon he'll be himself again.

Thistle's lethargy just a result of his innoculations yesterday, I trust?
