We had a heck of a thunderstorm pass through this evening. Poor Lucy hid in her crate until long after it passed. It took the sound of her food hitting her dish to draw her out.

Poor baby will never get used to fireworks and thunderstorms.

After the storm I managed to completely load my recycling bin with cardboard without touching all the crap in my entryway hall. Sigh. I’m never going to run out of things to stuff the bin with at this rate. I did run out of large garbage bags. I swear I’d packed a full box of them but haven’t come across them yet.

The mat for my rug got here today, if I’m lucky I’ll have help tomorrow to get it under the rug.

Lucy did battle with her first palmetto bug that tried to come in the back door as she was going out. She chased it clear off the back slab. Score is: Lucy 1   Palmetto bugs 0.

Personally, I think it creeped her out as much as they do me.
