Day 540

I slept in until a little before 9.  Then it was just get up, no surfing.  I did the pet stuff and then had breakfast.  It was raining a little, so I didn't consider doing anything outside.  Instead I read and surfed the rest of the morning away.

After lunch I loaded Lucy in the car and went to Academy.  I've been wanting to go there for some time, but it's been too hot to leave Lucy in the car.  That was no problem today.  I got a couple of boxes of subsonic 300 BLK for the new suppressor.  The next stop was the post office, followed by HEB.  The last stop was Circle C.  Lucy did 26 long retrieves in the long grass by the front parking lot.  It took her a couple of retrieves to get the hang of finding the bumper in the grass.

When I got home I killed flies and then went out to do my exercises.  The flies got into one of the loaves of bread.  I'm not sure how.  I didn't like the bread anyway, so I threw it out.

I haven't mentioned it, but I have a long going war on with one particular squirrel.  He's very wary.  As soon as I start to open the back door he's gone.  This morning the same thing happened twice.  He was back this afternoon I tried a different approach.  I went out the front door and around the side of the house.  That's what I used to do.  He took no notice of me at all.  For once I made a good shot, right through the heart.  I think I'll fill up the bird feeders again now.

I decided to leave the bird feeders empty because it's supposed to rain some more.  Instead I spent the rest of the afternoon reading and surfing. I took the dog to the mailbox and then had dinner.  After dinner I watched TV and read at the same time.
