Birthday prep

It was raining this evening, so I went shopping for daughter's birthday. It's next Monday, so we'll be celebrating this weekend. 

Not going to be huge but decent. I hope she'll be happy with it. 

She's grown too big for her old bicycle, so I got her a new one. I think this one should last a while. 24" and 18 speeds. I was lucky. The Walmart website said I would have to drive to a store across town but I still checked the one nearby and found exactly one of the model I was planning on. I need to transfer the lights from the old bike to the new one. 

Also got candles, banner, hats, tablecloth, balloons and streamers. Still need to get the cake later, some helium balloons and at least one more present. And a card. 

Work seems to be picking back up. I worked an extra hour and had 91 cases today. That equals more than two extra hours of pay for one hour of work. Maybe it will maintain this pace for a while. 

Not feeling very good. Didn't sleep well at all last night. Think I'm fighting something off and it isn't related to existing conditions. Going to try and get some extra sleep tonight. 

The dogs are still dumb as rocks. I have the solarium complete enough to shield them from rain. So, what do they do when it's raining? Stay out in it and get soaked, of course. (But try to give them a bath and they fight like crazy or look depressed.) Plus, what I've always heard is that dogs won't eat where they crap. However, I picked up all their poop and have been trying feeding them inside the solarium where they have been doing their business. Hasn't stopped them. They're both eating and pooping in the same immediate area. 

Hopefully it won't be raining all week. I have a lot to do this week. The time changes this weekend, so can't get much outdoor work done starting next week.
