Had a surprise storm roll through during the night. I heard the dogs barking and got up to allow them to get out of the carriage room. They came in the bedroom where I was sleeping and slept in late this morning. I got up before they did.
When I went out to the carriage room to let them out this morning I noticed the back door had a panel knocked out. When I looked closer I noticed scratches on the door from the inside. The dogs had gotten frightened from the storm and must have tried to get out. I didn’t hear them soon enough.
I went back up to my house late morning and did chores there. There was a chance for rain this afternoon so came back here and spent most of the day here. The dogs have been well behaved all day. I think they know they screwed up this morning.
My handyman came up this afternoon and fixed the door. He is so good to me and comes when I need it most. There was a turtle climbing around while he was working on the door that seemed very curious about what Phil was doing.
I have binged watched Call the Midwife again today. I am up to season five and have lots more seasons to go. It has made me cry a couple of times. I love how the show addresses issues of the time and does it in such a sensitive way. I wish our country had full medical coverage like England does.
So far there is no rain in the forecast for tomorrow so I will spend most of the day at home tomorrow. I have a few things I need to do at home.
Friday I am going to lunch with a dear friend. It will be good for me to get out and have a deep conversation with a friend. I have spent way too much time alone the last two weeks.
No plans for the weekend. I need to do some housecleaning here and gather my things up. My housesitting job will end Sunday evening. It will be weird next week staying home alone all day.
Feeling a bit lost tonight. Not sure what that is about. I will spend time at home tomorrow getting well grounded. I have a project to work on tomorrow and that will help.
Grateful the door got repaired today so quickly, grateful for the rain we received last night, and grateful for the empty space time I have had.
