Adventures

Tannin has been on the hunt to find new places to enjoy.
 Her most favorite hang out spots have windows.  So I put her up next to the window and opened the blinds for her to look out since we don't have windows that reach the floor.  She decided to jump onto the ledge, so I closed the blinds and let her sit on the ledge for a while. I was hoping the blinds could act as a buffer so she didn't jump off the ledge and onto the tile floor.
Looking thru the blinds at Tannin enjoying the view.  This is her happy face, FYI.

Dat tail is just too long!

Sun!

And I was trying to be nice a couple days later while I was just talking on the phone so I put her on the ledge and just watched her.  Luckily, I was only 2 feet away because she tried to jump THROUGH the blinds!
"Mama help--I stuck!"
So we'll find a new little place she can be safely...

Work has been really busy!  I crunched some numbers and found out we've increased our patient load by 11% in comparison to last year! It totally makes sense why I feel like I'm constantly hiring more RNs...haha! I also came up with a quarterly clinic newsletter for my work and I couldn't get it to print so I had to rush to Taylor's work and have him print a copy for me...
Such a sweetie!

We enjoyed hiking in Little Cottonwood Canyon this week.

Unfortunately, we went to hike Albion or Cecret Lake and both parking lots were excessively full (on a weekday night!), so we just found our own hike to do.

July in the mountains is wildflower month and I just love it!


We managed to teach 2 of our Webelos about pocket knifes, saws, and axes without anyone cutting off their fingers and toes slash our fingers and toes.

And Taylor and I have been part of the mob that joined up for Pokemon Go!
I caught one on my computer desk!

And slowly and surely we are trying to improve the home.  So today I spent and hour and half weeding the garden bed while Tannin just sat and watched me.

No, she did not offer her assistance...
 And done!...for today because it's super hot!

Both of you are really enjoying your new home and surroundings. Tannin is also having fun exploring. Your comments help bring her alive. Love, Dad

Tannin has the good life! She lays in the sun like a goddess! Your garden looks so good now! Hope you get some crops this year to enjoy! Zucchini and tomatoes always grow well for me. I think we use plants and not seeds though. Can't wait to hike and see all the wild flowers with you soon! Love ya! Mom
