It was a sunny and clear and a crisp fall day.  I did the dentist.  He wants to pull another of my poor teeth in two weeks.  All these teeth that I'm loosing are ones that had root canals a million years ago turning them into dead teeth.  Dead teeth can't be expected to stay forever but they served me well.  It's a depressing fact of old age with genetically poor teeth.  Oh well, there are people my age with worse problems than teeth falling out...

Chip was closed today.  I guess that's why he was there Saturday.  I'll check on Charlotte tomorrow.

I bought my redneck "art" and hung it on the wall where I can enjoy it.

I finally cleaned the table of all my tax stuff and put the assorted papers in the correct place.  The sun room where I did my taxes was a disaster that I put off tackling until I could stand it no more.  There were papers on the floor, papers I'll need for next year's taxes, and papers that needed to be filed as 2016.  It would have been easier but Chachie jumps on the table and messes the papers up and knocks important stuff to the floor where I threw the junk papers.  Once I put the papers where they belonged cleaning the rest of the house was a joy.

Then I did training with Bruno.  He wasn't happy with same old same old, so we've started training off lead.  Surprisingly, he does the things that he's uncertain of better off lead than on. 

Then I changed water and had left over Stroganoff with freshly made quinoa.  It was better than yesterday's.

Now I'm chilling.  It's been a good day.

It's been a good day.

It's been a good day here as well.  Slow steady rain most of the day.  Changed all the water in the fish room and filled the collection system.  Looks like more of the same tomorrow so perhaps I'll repeat the process.

Off tonight and tomorrow night.  Plan on doing some clean-up and a bit of web work, but nothing too serious.  LOL

We aren't supposed to get the first frost until Wednesday.  Here it is the 23rd of October and no frost yet.  Last year was on the 11th.  So we are a couple weeks later than last year.
