Hail you say!

When it rains, it pours or hails as it has been doing off and on today.  The strange New England weather continues and right now it seems almost pleasant outside with a light breeze.  Woke up this morning to a chilly house and no hot water.  Furnace seemed to be acting up the last few days and after resetting it, it still didn't work.  I mean I haven't had a really hot shower since last week (should have known something was up).  Enter my burner service man...thankful he was able to get down to the house early this afternoon and we are back up to temp.  So thank you Matt for your prompt and professional service!

Next we are off to take the little dog to the vet.  She started limping late last week after a hard play session outside.  Seems to be favoring her right front paw and has been a little mopey.  She's not the type of dog who just lays around and wastes the day.  No sir, she has lots of jobs she feels she must accomplish.  Like entertaining her humans with whatever ball or toy she has that can be thrown.  She has to keep her cat in line and make sure Lucy doesn't get one morsel of food more than she needs to sustain life.  And she has to guard her house from all of the scary mean golden retrievers that roam our street.  It's a busy life for any critter to maintain, just ask her as soon as she wakes up from her nap by the fireplace.  At least she has had some downtime over this past week as John was sick and the weekend weather didn't scream that we should be outside working on our little yard.  However even with all the extra rest, she is still gimping about and so we will take her in the doc today and get the little creature on the road to healing.
