#3GoodThings 1. Small Old Dog went absolutely HAM on the neighbor's sprinkler plume this morning and got soaked. She was very pleased with herself. 2. I love watching my dogs teach each other things. We're now on the 3rd "generation" of dogs teaching other dogs that cicadas are yummy and not scary (Lola > Henry > Sumac). 3. I offloaded one more thing that was stressing me out. At this rate I may spend October just chilling, which would be novel.
