Ugh. It's STORMING here. Thunder, lightening, pouring rain. Carlee is TERRIFIED of storms. It sent her into a tiny seizure. Literally like ten seconds. DH is on his way to the vet to get anti anxiety meds for her today since it's supposed to storm the whole day. Vet said the nerves from the storm probably set it off. DH was supposed to take SS fishing today. Not sure if that's happening.

---

Pressure wrapping a dog is supposed to help. Check out Thunder Shirts. 

---

A weighted blanket may help as well. 

---

 We have a thunder shirt.  DH ran around he corner to the vet.  He gave us a couple doses of something to relax her so the storm wouldn't scare her so badly.  She lived on the streets for quite awhile before we got her from the Humane Society.  I think her mind goes back to those days.

It was a bumpy ride, but we made it home! I just finished unpacking and started the first load of laundry. Time for pjs and a movie. Maybe a nap if I can get one. We had to get up at 3:30 to catch our plane.

---

Yay! Glad you made it safely!

Definitely a nap for you! Yuck, 3:30 in the morning? 

---

I'm glad you got home safely, Tang!

I hate bumpy plane rides.

I hope you can get in a nap.

Why is it that I can COMPLETELY remodel my kitchen with everything purchased on line, sight unseen, but I can't pick out a fricking LAMP?

You're "light" challenged. There may be a support group for you.

 It's easier to buy if you don't have to see it? That's all I got.

Thanks, flan. Some days really do have a good dose of sweetness. :)

Yay! I'm glad you found her family!

What a happy ending!

Now I'm waiting for the repair man. It was the dishwasher leaking that has caused us a bunch of grief.

Oh well. Life goes on.

(P.S. No storm cellars in Texas, ed. We muddle through as best we can.) 

---

 A leaking hose? Or the dishwasher itself?

Glad you found the problem!

---

The water line into the dishwasher, I think. I'll know more when the repairman gets here, Czech.

---

A cracked water line is a big deal. Hope it's not under the slab. Good luck! 

---

No, it's a piece that connects the water to the dishwasher. It's part of the dishwasher. (No problem with the slab, thank goodness!)

It will take three to five days to get the part. So, I'm washing dishes the old fashioned way until it's fixed. (We have to leave the water to the dishwasher turned off....or it would leak 24/7 until it's fixed.) 

I really admire the repairman that came to our house today. 

He walks with a crutch. I asked him if he was okay, and he told me he had been hurt in the military.

He got down on the floor, checked out what was leaking, found the part he needed to order, etc.

My view of what all was going on was partially blocked by our kitchen island.

It wasn't until he was getting back up again, and putting his artificial leg back on, that I realized how badly he had been hurt. (I didn't see him take it off. I didn't know he had lost his leg, from the knee down.)

God Bless him. He doesn't let his disability stop him from earning a living.

Good news, I have calmed down a bit since the call from the nurse. They did call in the prescription refills I needed, I had a mostly irrational fear that the doctor wouldn't prescribe my Ritalin if I didn't agree to the cholesterol med. I really need to start taking my Ritalin like I'm supposed to, that will probably be a help too. And I guess my vitamin D was super low, need to be taking that too.

Annoying and demanding coworker is still being annoying and demanding. I might have to shank her.

 Wow FWM.  My plumber wears heavy knee pads when he gets down on the floor to work.  Imagine how many times a day your plumber has to take his leg on & off.  Maybe he was a plumber before he joined the military because it seems like an odd choice for a guy who has an injury like that.  But great for him that he's doing it.

I think you should grill & use paper plates until your dishwasher is fixed.  Not so many dishes that way.

around here gas got as low as $1.42 a gallon and this morning I noticed it is back to $1.59! Hoping this is good news for those who actually work in the oilfields and that have been off as rigs were stacked. IMHO it is time for a new and different administration~

 It's the spring/summer blend which is more expensive to refine.

I've had a nice day. 1/2 at work, 1/2 at a couple of doctors. Everything went smoothly. Voted on the town budget stuff too and fed DD and her friend. They are being soooo obnoxiously loud and DS called chit chatting. I wanted to scream "I HAVE STUFF TO DO AND DON"T HAVE TIME TO TALK! I think I am cranky now. Haven't hear from DS. Perhaps he was kidnapped over the w/e, not sure..

 Wow 107 in the past 24 hours.  That is odd, isn't it?

 Guess we're more interesting than they are willing to admit.

Okay question. The new Grease movie. Takes place in the 1950's when racism was rampant. But this is a totally non segregated school. You even have interracial couples. It's a bit...odd.

 I never should have learned how to access Netflix.

Is there a 12-step program?

flan

---

 If there is I don't want to know about it.

We have made trail mix.

Netflix binges to watch:
Bloodline
Mad Dogs
Wentworth
Rectify
Fallen

Lemme think...

 The production was AMAZING.  The changes in the cast, not to much...

 Overall I was highly impressed with the remake.  Usually they fall very short.  This one was just as good in it's own way.  But the cast was not a good choice.
