This and that .....and that.....etc.

 

Yesterday Zoē was sick...shaking, panting, not wanting to eat anything.  I contacted our vet, and he could not see her, so he suggested 4 different emergency vets.  Which Romeo didn't really want to do because of how expensive it can be.  I decided we would wait an hour or so and see how she does.  She did slowly improve over the course of the day, but I was really worried.  She's always so energetic and happy.  This morning she acted more like she normally does.  We did have to give her a "butt wash" because her stool was very soft and stuck to her hair.  Even though she was not enthusiastic about the butt wash, I explained that doggies that stay inside most of the time and sleep on the bed need to be clean.  :-) 

We have also been struggling with our wifi.  Many years ago I purchased a wifi extender from Apple that finally died.  Now we have to change the wifi to Romeo's system, as he bought one a few years ago and it's set up with a different password.  I haven't counted the number of characters in his password, but it takes me forever to enter it.  Most of our stuff will simply connect to it, but some items need the password put in.  Ugh.  In case you wondered, all of his passwords are ridiculously long.  

I did not go to festival baking Tuesday as we were waiting for a new battery for Romeo's car.  The price at Costco was too good to pass up, but they don't carry those in the warehouse.  It did come right on time, but with the battery and Zoē feeling sick, I didn't make it.  From what I heard, there wasn't much to do, and some of the helpers were complaining they were bored.  I am going today, but if there's not much  to do I will clean out the refrigerator, which seems to always be a disaster.  People just throw things in there and they sit until they get moldy.  Gross.  

This week (and next week too I think) we are baking cheesecake that has a baklava topping.  It's really popular, so we make a lot of them.  The only thing for the baking assistants to do is to put the graham cracker crust in the bottom of the pan, and that's it.  So they take turns and have coffee and snacks in between.  Romeo is disappointed because there won't be any leftovers, or broken cookies to bring home.  :-)

Next time I will continue with my photos of Greece...I think the next batch will be Crete.  

I just wanted to complain, haha.

Have a great week!  Love, 365
