When I got back home from doing an afternoon errand, instead of barking dogs I heard a riding lawnmower running.

Yes--the neighbors are back.

And the dogs are totally quiet, instead of barking at anything visible that happends to be moving.

I am so glad I sleep on the opposite side of the house--their barking is just a minor annoyance.

I spent most of the day doing "stuff" around the house. In the morning I went to WalMart for food. Getting there early was, of course, a good idea at this time of year.

Hey--just three weeks from now is the "big day" for Christians.

Tomorrow I plan to type up some of the inventories that I've been working on. It's MUCH easier to bring them home than try to do them on an unfamiliar computer.

Weather today was barely a sweater day. Really nice outside.

I continue to have an IUL.
