Last night Sophie had trouble getting up in the lounge after sleeping for a couple of hours so Doug asked me to look for a dog sleeping pad for her. She has a wonderful bed with a foam mattress in his bedroom that she just loves but he wanted something smaller that can be used in the dining room or lounge. The wet weather will not be helping her joints any more than it helps ours.
I found a couple of good looking pads but could not find out if they were available in-store so have ordered them on-line. The Covid Lockdown has got us used to buying things on-line whereas we would have tried to get them locally before, also, the shop that has these pads is at the other side of town so delivery will be good.
So, apart from getting some beef bones on to cook to make stock for some soup and doing some things on line the day has just disappeared the way they all did over Lockdown.
Stinking hot here, so outdoor work is restricted to early mornings. Our afternoons are either indoors or in the pool. Phew.
ReplyDeleteNot cold here, just wet. Ho hum...
DeleteGlad to hear that you're catching up with your delivery of rain - we'd be in a sorry state without it. I'm doing a lot more shopping online these days; I would like to support my local farm shop but when I went in earlier this week I found that keeping social distance was almost impossible as they'd made very few modifications to their layout.
ReplyDeleteYes, the rain is much needed. According to today's paper it is going to be a drier than usual winter so I hope the dam gets filled up. I think a lot more people are shopping online these days. I prefer to shop local if I can but must say with the current weather having it delivered is a bonus.
DeleteA picture of the doves in the feeder would be great.
ReplyDeleteWe have tried many times. One only has to think of the camera and they all take off however Doug had another go today.
DeleteDisappearing days will be with us in the USA for a lot longer. I wonder if it will ever end.
ReplyDeleteFrom what we hear it does sound grim there. Do take care and stay safe Arleen.
DeleteYou are getting more rain than us this time around :)
ReplyDeleteand it appears Coromandel got more than us again.
