I woke just before 4 am and the rain was coming down. It continued as I lay awake till after 5 and then hear it still at 6 and 7 when S got up to make coffee and do some trouble shooting on an issue that seems to have happened at the rental. He brought me one of his stiff java cups after 8 and filled me in on the water damage Epcor caused on the rental, ugh. The rain continued as he took Lola for her morning walk and back to the deck. She continues her 2 pills in am and one in evening routine. She goes for her first physio this Thursday afternoon. He checked gauge and 6/10ths so far.
look how the flowers are opening
I made us a tasty cappuccino to go with some banana cake then S was off to town at 10 having dr appointment and errands. Seeing he loves the sourdough bread, I had taken the starter out last night and fed it to make the dough later tonight. Perfect rainy weather baking. After catching up the blog and quick marketing I got busy taking apart the dishwasher. If you don't follow the cleaning company Go Clean Co from Calgary on Instagram, you should. It is always inspiring to get the unusual things cleaned. Watch their daily stories and find all the everyday cleaning hacks pinned on their page. They inspired the spin mop with Tide cleaning I do.
S arrived home with A&W burger and fries lunch and a pile more peonies picked up from Manda XOXO. I scrubbed up the dishwasher parts and put it all back together while S relaxed in big brown reading the news paper. I used a new stainless steel polish and did dishwasher, fridge and stove, yeah!
S headed out to the shop to look over the swather so all is ready to go once the sun comes back out. He took Lola for a pee break on way over, let her sniff around and I called her back a bit later. Good to let her have a change of scenery. I worked on computer and accounting. The rain continued all day long till B arrived before 3:30. She found Bird had a swollen lip when she went to feed which eventually ended with some bute.
At 4 she and I were off to for her first riding lesson on Roo. It was as exciting as she hoped or even better.
We did a catch up with next months plan after the lesson then were back to the ranch by 6. S was in from his repairs having ran to town for parts too. The chicken I put in before I left on a timer was done so I made up gravy while S carved the chicken. B joined us for supper then was off to town after 6:30. I made up the bread dough and left to proof overnight. After walking Lola to the gate to close it after another malfunction S checked the rain gauge.. 3/4" in total today.
