I forgot to look for my eclipse glasses, so I was only able to view it indirectly. No complaints, though. Leaves make a lovely pinhole camera.

I see all the best stuff when I’m outside with Thomas. Last night, it was a meteor. Today it was butterflies visiting my zinnias.

Poor baby boy could NOT believe I wasn’t going to share my pizza bones with him.

At the Pokey Proddy Place

Thomas had his annual exam today. He was a very good boy, even for his shots, and the vet said everything looks great. I can’t remember the last time a vet said that!

And then we came home and he passed out for a whole ten minutes.

I have two identical shaker bottles. I looked everywhere for the other mixer ball, but couldn’t find it. I thought maybe a cat had decided it was a toy, but no, I was a dork and put both of them in my smoothie, and now they’re conjoined.

Sharing Is Caring

I swear, Thomas is a bottomless pit of want. I don’t think he even cares what you’re eating. If you’re eating it, he wants it.

And we’re back in business! The new computer arrived today. I got it about 90% set up, so I won’t miss another weekend of research.

And speaking of research, I finally ordered a DNA kit. Hopefully this will help with some brick walls.

New Personal Record

This is what happens when your dog goes on a potty strike. What should have been a 45 minute walk this morning turned into a two hour walk. Brat. I’m more pig-headed than he is, though, so I won.

Cashews

And now it’s time for a bedtime snack. I love cashews. I would sit and eat them all, so I keep a measuring cup in the container.
