Music Gives

Hi,

Today was a beautiful day interrupted by a rain storm.  Yeah, that's what happened.  

The 'Easy Monday' song was "Creepin'" by Stevie Wonder.  This week's 'Zany Day' song should be familiar:
"Take out the papers and the trash, or you don't get no spendin' cash.  If you don't scrub that kitchen floor, you ain't gonna rock and roll no more.  __ __ (don't talk back)"  Hint:  This could be called a parenting guide I suppose.

The dogs are always quite energetic after a big storm.  New smells and cool air seems to suit them just fine.  After their play time, the workers came to seal the leaks on the west side of the house.  Lots of silicone and a special splash guard for my studio window.  Their work was right on time since we had another storm this afternoon, with wind coming from the west.  No water entered the house and that makes us smile.  

While we were shopping at Makro we realized another something about the fish department.  It's not very humane.  Without any details, I'll just tell you that the live fish were crowded in one tank and got agitated.  Water was splashing out of the tank and no one seemed disturbed about it.  Many vendors buy the fish and take them to their place of business.  I guess the store got more than usual today.  I also noticed that in the frozen section there is mackerel from Japan.  We have been giving the dogs mackerel, but from the Indian Ocean.  I'm not sure if fish from the waters off Japan are safe these days.  I'm also not sure how many people really care.  Hmm.

On our way home from shopping, we had to take a detour and I decided to take a side trip for a photo.  The boat in today's photo is in our neighborhood, a few blocks north of us.  We don't know what it is, but suspect it's either a hotel or a restaurant.  I'll pass the photo around and see if I can get more info.  Just blew my mind.


It's very quiet here tonight.  With Cat and Boot both gone, and BamBam staying at Boot's house with Rudi, we're all alone.  It's not a bad thing, just different.  After the hectic day we had, we'll probably actually go to bed early.  When there is work done on the house, a proper nap is out of the question.  (555)

Time for Wacky Wednesday.

                 Peace,
                           Danny
