Still Alive!

 

We went for a walk on some of the acreage that the park has.  The magnifying area is where we are.  We haven’t had the time to walk the property much because of Road Hogs knee.  Since he has a new brace, it has really kept the pain down.  MRI will be scheduled tomorrow. Doc thinks he tore his meniscus. We won’t really know until his MRI. 


We have been having high 70’s weather.  It isn’t too often that we are able to put our awnings out…remember, we’re in Texas.  But most mornings we are able to put them out for about an hour, then the winds come.



X marks the spot!  We keep the awnings out until the breeze picks up to about 10 mph, then we bring them in.



Today was window washing day for Road Hog. We have a lot of windows! That blue thing sitting on the ground is our water softener.  That right there was a great buy! No more buying water! And each time we regenerate, it takes 2 boxes of regular table salt. It takes about 30 minutes to regenerate, then we are good for about another 30-40 days. This last time it was a bit sooner because we had to take care of our Truma on demand water heater. About once a year we have to do something called a descale. That takes about 2 hours, descales everything, and then we are good to go.




Lucy visited the vet this morning. She needed some claws clipped, a rabies shot, and she should be able to get her bandage off on Friday.



She was so hungry when she came home, since the vet said she might be put under, and shouldn’t eat after 10 last night, but she allowed the vet to clip her nails without any problems.  That little part was hard to believe.  But, the cats will be turning 14 in April, so she must be mellowing out in her old age. Man, I wished everyone did this in their old age! 😁
