Summerizing
I worked from home today. Hard to concentrate at times because I keep noticing loose hair on Java that obsessively have to pull out. But working at home is nice because there is no drive time so once I’m done working, I can get some stuff done. I went to a greenhouse a couple miles…
No Pillar of Salt for Me
My sister advised me not to be like Lot’s wife and spend my time looking backwards, lest I turn into a pillar of salt. Perhaps pillar of salt was a metaphor for grief and the salty tears that sadness brings? I know I can’t get through this time without grieving, without examining my life to…
Bird Feeder Mystery
When I let Java out last night, I saw something big jump off our bird feeder. I was thinking that either it was the biggest squirrel I’d ever seen or it wasn’t a squirrel. I ran up the steps to the deck with H’s super-duper bright flashlight and found a raccoon on the deck. This…
Swollen Lips and Rapping Dairy Farmers
I’m not sure what Java got in to, but the other night her lips swelled up huge! She was not a happy girl. I was thinking it must have been some kind of bug bite or sting, although I thought bugs were dead or hibernating by now. Java was scratching her face and ears so…
Back to the Rum
I woke up this morning with a scratchy throat, cough, and runny nose. Maybe this has been the problem all along, why I’ve been so drained — impending germs. Something that can be cured with vitamin C, hot tea with honey (maybe a little brandy), naps — that would be good. But it was about…
Rain Down On Me
After only two days of supporting new software users, I’m exhausted. Today I had three people fighting over me to come fix problems or show them how to do something. Hectic, but it was nice to be able to help people figure things out. I love troubleshooting and solving problems! I wish I got to…

I just love that JAVA! Have a good day!
Love the photos. Especially, ‘Java shake’!
Java has a good life.
She certainly keeps me moving and laughing! I hope Java still feels like she has a good life when she’s stuck in an apartment with me.
Java looks like one happy girl. Don’t just think apartment…there might be an alternative somewhere.
Java, I love you! You are too darn cute! I love seeing her swimming!
It was in the upper 80’s here today, usually Sadie will just jump in her pool, I couldn’t get her to go in it for the life of me! Silly dog!
Such a cute doggie! What a life!
Great photos. And if you do have to move to an apartment, you’ll take Java to the off-leash park or find an unofficial off-leash area to run in. It’ll work.
I’m hoping I’ll end up somewhere with a fenced in yard, like a townhouse or duplex, or at least a door that goes directly outside. Wherever we end up, like Ari said, it’ll work out somehow. Those apartment pools are tempting though. Kids with stinky diapers go in there. Why not a hairy dog? 🙂
