Always something new . . .


Was very rudely awakened at four this morning by three of the foxes hunting and screeching near the picnic table. Gees, there goes the neighborhood. No peace for the wicked and all that rot! I had to open the door to scare them away and into the woods near the waterhole. Puppy's Pop saw their digs when he went to help our neighbor across the street do some heavy lifting! The Fox Family lives on a hillside near the old trestle. The neighbors also find dead carcasses all around their yard. Good hunters, but the suckers are noisy as heck. The best new cause for surprise; ta da! The Bruins won the Stanley Cup in the seventh game and away from home! Now that is truly miraculous. I've come full circle as I watched them win 39 years ago when we only had one child. How time has flown by. A shut out; a short handed goal; a goal when the Canucks had pulled their goal tender! It had everything. The Bruins were on a mission and completed it well. On a completely different note I went to get a check at the CU to pay for our car insurance. The Credit Union just had an update and all was supposed to be hunky dory. Not! It now takes 20 minutes for the check to print once it is in the system. She waited on three more people before giving me that info! So I took the $1589 in cash, dropped by the bank, came home and wrote out the check! What's modernity doing for you lately? Let me know. We could write a funny yet dreary chronicle! Almost forgot, took a deer tick off the back of my leg this morning. Merde! Merde! And encore, Merde!
