Family news

Internet out for over a week. But much of that time Joy was in the hospital for surgery so I could surf there but not post.

She is well and eating now.

Ruby is back from her vacation in Singapore and helping her mom with the business until her mom recovers.

She leaves for college in two weeks.

Her dog, Angel, a small white terrier, died. Cancer. But not a lot of pain and we kept her comfortable with pills so we left her die here at home. Sigh. That is the last of the dogs we have had for years... the next generation is young and doing well, but all farm mongrels

what we need is a huge vicious dog, like George our Labrador, who scared everyone and often would bite strangers if they got too close.

It has been stormy/ monsoon weather for the last week, which means wet weather and flooded streets, but no major floods... The city is putting in more drainage (with covers) and fixing the older covered ditches, which have crumbled under the weight of rice trucks going down the street (or maybe because they used cheap cement).
