OK, so I'm behind in my blogging.
Besides an update on how the pup-sitting went on the weekend, I have a great pet health story coming up. But all my good plans were thrown for a loop this weekend when a freak storm (yes, it was freaky) knocked down some serious tree parts 2 houses down, tearing down 2 power poles and blocking the road for 2 days. Luckily no people or pets were hurt and no property was damaged but it was lights out for 6 lucky houses in the neighborhood - ours included.
And of course, as luck would have it, the Illuminating Company had sent their emergency staff off to Toledo thinking that that was where the action was going to be; hence, no power at home on Sunday night or Monday until past midnight (and that was a miracle I think.) Harumph!
In a pinch yesterday, I rented a generator to save the food in our fridge and 2 freezers (I like to cook in bulk and freeze it all and Costco is our best friend) and I did manage to get in some work done in the heat of Monday night, eating melted chocolate ice cream :), but it all rather threw me (and the girls and the cats ) for a loop (John stayed at work late in his lovely air conditioned office - envy envy.)
So while I try to catch up this week, you can check out see some video footage of Ruby, the talkative Golden-Doodle, over at my Facebook profile to keep you amused. She certainly did have fun at the office.
