Yesterday started out with me up at 4:30 AM — I complained about it, Remember? Well… the day stayed crappy throughout its entirety.
When I attempted to buzz Hugo’s collar because he was acting like a butthole with Katie, I found the batteries were dead. Merida’s wasn’t working either so both collars went on the charger.
And then, the lawnmower took a nap.
I mowed in front of the woods and 5 or so strips in the front yard when the ole’ cub decided she’d had enough. Nothing looks worse than a yard that’s partially mowed. Waiting on Perry to see if it was something he could fix, I was about ready to pull the trigger at either Lowe’s or Home Depot on a new one.
In the meantime, Hugo escaped the fence by going under the deck to the back yard somehow. He then had the zoomies. He thought I was playing with him so he wouldn’t come to me. And… his collar was still on the charger. Lucky for him because I was so frustrated, I’d have probably punched the “shock” button on scale #10.
Today is uncover the pool day.
The cover should’ve been off the pool more than 3 weeks ago, but the weather (primarily wind and rain) didn’t coordinate with our schedules so it didn’t get done. Here goes… let’s hope we can keep the leaves out of the water as it comes off.
All the frogs that have been singing to one another (LOUDLY) over the past few weeks are going to have to find a new home. Since the mower problem was minor and the yard was mowed yesterday, they’re welcome to find solace out there instead of around the pool.
Now you know: In 2010, then stripper Bryan Hawn attempted to raise a 6-week old hyena, Jake, in a 1 bedroom apartment in Miami. This continued for 11 months, until Hawn was forced to re-home the hyena after it bit a friend, destroyed his plumbing, pooped everywhere, and broke his arm.
