Go On Without Me

Inspirational song: I Hear You Knocking (Dave Edmunds)

My own life was pretty boring today. I went back and spent another couple hours helping my friend who is doing a major cleanup of their house. I scrubbed a bathroom, and just about did myself in when my bleach-covered gloves touch a spot where a cat box had once sat. What do we get when chlorine and ammonia come into contact? A quick trip outside for fresh air and those gloves tossed in the trash, that's what we get. Eventually I managed to get the bathroom clean enough to call it a day, and that was all I could have hoped for.

The rest of the family had much more fun. The children started their day at a nearby apple farm for festivities and apple cider donuts. Later in the day they went on a hike in the foothills of Boulder. The Mr took both dogs on a quick trip to the cabin, so he could drain the last of his stored water before it froze and ruined his cistern. The dogs have been suspiciously silent since they returned. Wearing them out is the key to stopping the barking. If only I had the energy to take them romping through the mountains to stop them barking at cars on a regular basis.

I only have stolen photos for tonight. At least they are adorable.
