SUMMMMERTIIIIIIME.................

I have never spent so much of a summer indoors as I have this year. I just realised that.
First it was too rainy. Then the house fell apart. Then we were back and forth between a motel and restaurants and fast food places and the house packing and loading and stuffing ourselves with grease and sugar. Mmmmm. Oh, sorry.
Then we were here and couldn't-- or wouldn't-- leave the dogs unattended, and besides it was 100 outside and the humidity at Tropical levels.

In self-defence I discovered Trash TV. I mean really terrible stuff that I would watch avidly. Not soaps but almost. BRAVO is really good for Trash TV in my opinion. The only things I really cannot watch anymore is the Millionaire Matchmaker thing. I can't watch most reality shows because I swear they find mutants to be in them.
I watched a lot of animal planet. A lot of True TV Cop stuff. (AP has a lunchtime show called K-9 Cops--for me, the best of both worlds.)

I go painting on Tuesdays, but I have not been for two or three weeks and next week is Labor Day week and WE SHOULD BE MOVING BACK TO THE HOUSE!!!
I have to board the dogs and have them all bathed and groomed.Cooper is a complete mess. He has mats. I am ashamed but I have neither the right tools or the grooming table and he HATES having me groom him. He demands the professionals. I will have to call and see when either Annette or Dawnie are going to be available.

The Food Network is good at night and occasionally during the day. I have to remember, this Saturday, to watch the Pioneer Woman's new cooking show. See there are a thousand ways to avoid going outside.

Usually I am out all summer, walking the dogs or gardening or mowing the lawn.
I am in a shell this year.
We have mice. The outdoors is coming in.
I do walk over to the house now and then.
I have to get out more.....
