well, the hot weather has finally gone - for a while, hopefully. It was wonderful to turn off the a/c's last night and open the windows!!! Looks like it will be nice for the rest of the week - now, if we could only get a bit more rain..... the lawns are looking pretty brown.
We've been experiencing a rough patch with our Rogers internet connection. About 2 months ago, we noticed a bit of a drop in the speed, but several times now, it has been completely unusable - just hangs up. On Friday, I think I must have reset the hub and my lap top half a dozen times. Saturday night our neighbour called asking about our service - he has the same Rogers hub that we do and he said his service was awful. We also had a couple of "lost in cyber-space" texts lately. So, I called Rogers (again) and while, they couldn't offer a solution, they did say they would report a general problem in the Haley Station area - we'll see what happens. All, I can say is that after this past 3 days with Rogers, I'd be tempted to go back to dial up - slow, but reliable!!!
We've been pretty quiet this weekend - had a few showings arranged, but later cancelled - so just chilling for the weekend. Rick took advantage of the down-time to give the pellet stove a good cleaning - which involved disconnecting it and getting into the back of it. He also made a couple of "modifications" which should allow him better access for future cleanings. Disconnecting and pulling it out from the wall is a pretty big job.
We've been catching what we can of the Olympics - sort of hit and miss - it seems whenever I have time to watch, all I can find is soccer or basketball.
Today's picture is our cutie, Buddy - having a quick nap on the back of the couch.
