Foster Dog - Day 3

THURSDAY
7-17-2014

We got up early, about 5:50. I got started on breakfast while hubby walked KoKo outside for potty. Then we turned off the water outside.

The Remington Water District is upgrading their electric facilities & generator. KEC will be turning off the electric to their generator, so we are on back-up generator and low water usage restrictions today.

I filled up a lot of water containers including a 5 gallon bucket in the bathtub. It is not necessary to run out of water today.

Then I fed KoKo some of the eggs, hubby gave Ben his pills.

Hubby sat on the couch watching the news until 7AM. Then he left after giving Squishy dog to Ben & Bud. Lil Bit did not want to hug. Maggie was already sleeping.

After he left, I fed the fish and gave chickens some collard greens. Put KoKo in the back yard.

It was pretty cool at 9AM today, still only 71. Hope it stays cooler.

It did not stay cooler. It got up to 93. I put ice & a fan out for KoKo.

Hubby worked OT for 2 hours; finally got home at 7:00. He brought two 1/2 gallon milks from Lil Town Market. Cashier told him that they cannot keep stock in because of all the tourist purchasing.

Hubby had dinner & watched tv for a little while. We walked the dogs around the property, then went down to the shop. While we were down there, hubby looked at a new truck that had been brought in while he was on vacation last week. It had a rear-end that he needed for a current job. Then Charles stopped by and we talked with him for a few minutes.

Came back up to the house. Watched a couple new shows...Married and You're The Worst. Both were pretty funny.

Went to bed at 10:30. Really tired. The smoke & heat are sapping our strength.
