I felt Crystal get out of bed this morning. I thought that she was just going to go to the bathroom and come back to bed. I dozed. Then I heard the coffee put get turned on.

“Self”, I said, because that’s what I call myself. “Self, just take a knee for five more minutes, and then you can get up and have a cup of coffee with the Beautiful One.” It was a really good plan in my mind, until I finally pulled the mask off my face, and realized that, my 5 more minutes was another 50 minutes.

Oops.

I didn’t mean to sleep in like that.

It’s another gray day out there. The lanai is damp out there. I wouldn’t be running to throw something out, I’d actually have to put shoes on to take something to the trash or recycle bins.

It doesn’t feel like Canada Day here. Like I said (every day for like two weeks), we’re expecting rain again. Even the farmers are saying they don’t want this much. Everyone that comes into the store are not happy with the weather.

It was a busy day yesterday. I had a 9:30am doctor’s appointment. In and out. then I went up to Shady Acres to move the Chromecast from the RV to my mom’s bedroom. I grabbed the vacuum, and told my mom, if she wants door to door service for dinner tonight to tell me.

Mom did her running around, and then took a nap. We vacuumed the house, having to empty to dirt bin (we put it under our pillows for the Dirt Man) 5 times. But the floor looks and feels better. I picked up mom around four and she came over to play with Podrick, who she called “solid”.

But the coffee is flowing, birds are singing. Podrick is looking out the back door, and Pippin is sitting on the pirate chest. It’s a good day. Happy Canada Day!

EDIT: BREAKING NEWS!

Canada will be entering the 2027 Eurovision contest!
