Hung some new outdoor blinds on my South facing kitchen windows to help keep the house cooler. It's 98 F now.
Currently 96 F out there and the outdoor blinds and portable A/C and fans are doing their job keeping things tolerable inside. I thought winter would be the time that I'd want an indoor man cave, but I'm starting to rethink that. (it's out of the question)

Made an iced espresso seltzer this afternoon for a cooling boost of energy on this scorcher of a day. We're over the hump, it's already dropped 3 degrees to 93 F and should be down to 68 F by 10:00 PM Pacific.
So, Leah, one of my dogs, got sprayed by a skunk last night. I was out on the Man Patio smoking a cigar and smelling a skunk in the area when my Wife comes out and says that Leah got sprayed in her face and was inside rubbing it off on the furniture. I didn't even see it happen.
We prepared the concoction (baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, and liquid dish soap) and cleaned her up.
That leads to today's mundane chore, washing all the dogs. They really needed it, all three of them.
Leah walked up the stairs herself to the shower were we usually have to catch the dogs and bring them up so I think she realized that she wanted to be cleaned up.

I feel for you...I've been lucky, only had it happen once. Seems like the slow ones gets it more.
Guessing I’m going back to work early. My company dumped me today. No insurance as of tomorrow. Wow, after arguing if my doctors will release me they will bring me back on since they haven’t posted my job up yet.
So guess I’ll go back for now while i still can. But going to start looking for something else
I may be wrong, but I think that by law they'll have to allow you to stay on their insurance for up to 18 months. Of course, you'll have to pay for it.

Called today and was like “we are going ahead and putting you on long term disability. It pays 60% and doesn’t include insurance. When your doc releases you we will find something for you.” I was second in command and about to take over completely fall Of 21.
They self insure and have sent about $250 K since October. Just doesn’t make since to me. I just went from grateful and committed to I’ll comeback earlier until I find something else.
Cut the overhanging tree limbs on the driveway up the hill to my studio. The limbs were starting to look and feel like one of those fancy automated car washes.
Well after they found out I was seriously putting in for other jobs I got called back with the release from my Dr. I start working from home on the 13th and my insurance has been reinstated. Stipulation from my dr is minimum exposure to others as I’m am at high risk for Covid. I like the potentially fatal part.
Ran out of roasted coffee Sunday morning and suffered with lethargy and headaches yesterday so I roasted up a batch last night. I had a cup or two this morning and I'm waiting for the withdrawal symptoms to subside.

That’s why I’m afraid to stop working! Wife’s says I should take it easier, but I’m afraid I’ll die!

Can't find the womenfolk so I suspect that they're both holed up in the master bedroom enjoying the air conditioning.
Stress test yesterday...kick my a$$.
Early morning Dr visit. No smoking today 😢
Low labs and sent home so.......
Fresh paint and last two mods I want to do. Hopefully the seal won’t require latches.
Asked to be a guest on a cancer survivors Zoom podcast today. Wish me luck.
Smoking this morning surrounded by at least a dozen honey bees. Must be a hive close.
Are you sure that's not a murder hornet? Can't be too careful with the 2020 curse hanging over us. LOL
Too puny and he didn’t murder me
You were lucky.

Yeah I’ll have the deck finished tomorrow is the weather holds then I can get back to the humi. Happy wife lets me buy the Spanish cedar for inside.
Going to line the inside with some box lids also. Think it would look cool.
COH sent me this video of their new warehouse. Figured I could post since they sell different cigars than CCOM

Unexpectedly, the boss sent someone over to watch the place today so I could take the day off for some r&r. I think I'll get two cigars in today.
