And It Rained, So Crandall Found Absolute Joy. Temperatures Are Somewhat Cooled and I Loved to See the Healthy Downpour From My Front Porch Writing Emporium

The storms came soon after my morning coffee. I felt relief knowing that getting outside was probably not a good option so I moved ahead some more on many projects. This is a rough week and I need t's dotted and I's crossed. What else is new?

Karal and I did walk in the afternoon, and I grilled a rib-eye which was delicious. I also got a few items from the grocery store that I greatly needed.

Monday, today, needs to be strategic to make it through Tuesday and Wednesday which are cramped with daylong responsibilities. I also have to be on campus for an afternoon Faculty Handbook commitment. 

As for September shedding of dog owners, I feel ya. They know winter months are coming and begin releasing hairs for their pre-hibernal coats. I bathed Karal and it's been a blonde waterfall ever since. All of her lounging areas need severe sweeping and vacuuming. 

Time for a Garfield Monday grump. It's not that I hate Mondays, but I can't wait for the pace of this upcoming week to be over with.

Here's to the work ahead.
