This dog. Every day she talks and sings, and convinces me to take her for a walk

I received a tube of L’Occitane en Provence hand lotion as a Christmas gift. It smelled like baby powder and old lady perfume. That sounds ungrateful, but I couldn’t tolerate it.
Thankfully, my son offered to exchange it for me on one of his visits to the mall. I told him to get me something more masculine. He returned with this tube of Almond Delicious Hands cream. Not what I would picked for a $30 tube of French hand lotion, but it’s really growing on me.
The rain keeps coming. This morning, I was startled out of bed by thunder and lightning at 3:45am. And it appears that conditions are ripe for a repeat. This weather is exhausting.
Spent a few hours yesterday helping my neighbor repair his backyard fence. The wind and rain was relentless again last night, but my fence lines held. Maybe they’ll hold for one more season.
Another storm moved through NorCal late last night and into this morning. Wind gusts up to 60mph here. Trees are down all over the area. Neighbor lost four sections of fence. And, more rain is on the way tonight.
