It was chore day today. Chris ran Connor over to Joe's, while I started the laundry. Then it was load after load all day. Lily and I braved the heat and took Indy for a much needed walk, he's still not thrilled with me after last week's bath but he seems to be feeling a lot better.

I asked Lily why she decided not to go to her father's house this weekend, and she just shrugged and said she didn't feel like watching any races. I hope that's all it is, I'd hate to think she is trying to avoid him or Pam.

Chris and I talked a little more about trying to get away for a week or two but with his schedule it looks like next February is probably the best time for that. Seems kind of weird to be planning a winter vacation when its almost 100 degrees outside, but it won't be long before winter is here again. But one thing's for sure, the flowers in the front yard love the weather. The cosmos are blooming like crazy!

We wound up not going out for dinner, Bella was cranky most of the day (its probably the heat) and we decided not to torment the other diners. So instead of gourmet we settled for hot dogs and popsicles. I can just picture Clay cringing.
