April Fool - keeps going and going even through May

Summer has started and stopped since April Fool's Da
y was one of the earliest 100F days in decades. We expected that was enough to summon summer and make her a constant for the next four or five months.
Not true.  Not at all.

Following desert temperatures this spring has been kind of like following the bouncing ball.  Up and then down.  As soon as you have determined the pattern, it changed.

The change has been disparaging for the blond.   He has patterns in his life and likes them to be honored by everyone.  Dinner, dog treats, walks, and fast-food hamburgers need to be provided on a regularly scheduled basis.

The change in temperature has brought a change in disposition.  And despondency. 

 

 Ultimately, the weather has decided to get and stay hot ... as per usual.  The dog accepted the inevitable change.  The walking schedule has been altered to better serve him (see, good pet parent here).  New toys have been procured to get rid of the dog day blues.

Adorable! That face! What a sweetie. I hope the despondancy was cured by the new toys? And late night walks?

Blondie is doing much better. I think the new toy and a new friend of mine who knows just how to scratch have helped!
