The End of the Holidays

So, after a lovely week away from civilization at my cottage (a pity there's no internet there or I would have written a lot in this blog) we come back home.  To a few surprises.

1.  The dog has a bladder infection.

2.  It's raining.  Really hard.  And we have to get our luggage out of the car.  Pity.

3.  There's something wrong with the cat.  He's got  bald patch on his neck, which we think comes from the fact that dad gave him the dog's flea meds instead.

4. The yard is flooded.

5. The heater is on!  In July!  The house is HOT!

6. The heater won't turn off!

7. The heater won't turn off because it is submerged with water (!) because...

8. The basement is flooded.

Oh well, we're all quite cheerful, and the repair man is nice.  The weather reminds me of the day we moved into this house... "It rained like you wouldn't believe!"  "We believe!"  We were so tired that we decided it was impossible to cook anything, so we ordered pizza, found out they didn't do delivery, went to get the pizza, got stuck in traffic, and found we brought home the wrong order!  Such is life! :)  And life is beautiful!

On a funnier note, some how some kind of seed has made its way into my worm farm, because it's sprouting something :)
