Some like it hot...

Happy Sunday everyone! Another hot day in the neighbourhood 🔥We've had a heat warning for almost one week now, however, the humidity level hasn't been that bad and it's been breezy, so somewhat tolerable. Today though seems more humid and we do have a thunderstorm watch in effect for later this afternoon. Our heat is nothing compared to other parts of the world. Hoping for relief soon.

This past week was good. Despite the heat, we've had a few early morning walks with the pooches. We went to the park and they enjoyed the cool grass by the lake. We didn't see our friend Earl. Maybe this week. 

On Friday, we celebrated my birthday. Russell and I had lunch at our local pub. It was nice and we ate on the patio. When we got back home, Cooper & Spicy seemed especially happy to see us...they must have known it was my special day. I put together a simple charcuterie board for dinner and got a couple of fruit tarts for dessert .... always nice to blow a candle or two on birthdays 🎂

Yesterday, despite the heat, Russell cut the grass in the morning. It was getting really long and Miss Spicy doesn't like long grass 😂 We also cut some branches and trimmed a few bushes. It was good to sweat it out!

We didn't walk today. Russell woke up feeling a little off but he's better now. I did a bit of retrieve with the Coop and Spicy outside in the shade. They also got to play in the cool basement for a bit. They're ready for their afternoon nap with their pappy. 

This coming Tuesday, I will have lunch with Lise & Diane in the Old Montreal. It's our yearly get together. It will be nice to catch up.

I leave you with a few pics of my special day. I end this blog by sending special thoughts to a friend who lost one of her Golden Girls this morning. Bailey, a beautiful golden retriever, crossed the Rainbow Bridge. She will be dearly missed by her human parents and her sister Phoebe.

Have a great week everyone, the last full week of July. Yikes!

Making the first of my wishes!

Wish # 2 with Spicy and Cooper supervising.

A special moment to celebrate!

Staying cool while on guard duty.
