Summertime Malaise

I had to beat it. I had way to much time on my hands and absolutely no will to do something creative. So I took a second job. I am officially an afternoon dog walker! It’s pretty cool. I go to people's homes and take their dogs for walks while they are at work. Big dogs, little dogs, nice dogs, grumpy dogs (just one)…it’s fun and great exercise. I walk three bull dogs that give my arms a nice workout along with my legs. Best of all, it gets me out of the house and out of my head for a while. If only I could walk around with an artificial cloud. Summer in San Diego does absolutely nothing for me anymore. I'm sick of the sun. It's hot and makes me sweat. But the dogs are great.

The backyard is about the same. I did notice this little shroom showed up for a day. I don’t think the gnome liked it. Look at his face in this photo, he is giving it the evil eye. He killed it, it know it!
