Excuse me, can you wake up? I would like to go outside

Turtle is still with us-Peacock had car trouble.
She’s still doing her best to nudge me out of bed and out the door by 5 a.m.
We’ve come to an agreement: 6:30 is better, and her tiny reservoir can hold out until 7:30, when it’s fully light outside.

Thanks to the geriatric dog, I see more of the early morning than I’d like. 
All the spiders are out, swinging from the porch, and Turtle seems determined to run me through their webs. 
Autumn is settling in-each morning there are more leaves underfoot. 
Yesterday I needed a hoodie; today a sharp nip in the air sent me back inside for socks. 
My little feet got wet and cold from the heavy dew. 
It won’t be long before we switch from A/C to heat, and I’m not ready for that yet.”

After Cowboy woke up and ate his breakfast, he went out to put up the new motion light.
The tricky thing said it was going on the she-shed so he could see better.
But he actually stuck it on the side of the house-right where we take the dogs late at night.
I’d asked him to put one up there before, but he said it couldn’t be done.
It charged all day, and after it got dark, I went out to test it.
Either it didn’t charge today, or he needs to turn it on tomorrow.

The day moved along in its usual slow-as-molasses way.
Nothing different or important to note happened.

Cowboy headed to work. 
Monday through Friday, that's the routine around here.

Once Cowboy left for work, Badger and Turtle disappeared outside. 
They were out there until at least 7 p.m. 
First thing she did was move the pool off her hobby board, which sounds easy, but it’s a 153-pound galvanized steel stock tank. 
I guess she figured that while it was down, she might as well give it a teensy bit of cleaning-just enough so it didn’t look awful in pictures. 
Then she took a couple of good photos and sent me a text.
 I headed out, she showed me the pictures, and told me to change my ad. 
Back inside, I powered up the computer, deleted the old ad, and put up a new one using her improved pictures. 
We all want to sell that pool-it hogs a lot of yard space. 
Then she moved her hobby board to where the garden used to be. 
Without the garden, she’s got a better area for it. 
After doing everything she could to soundproof it, she practiced her hobby for a while.

She came inside for a shower, that pool was filthy.
Then she had dinner, and we watched a movie.

Heron got home, sat with us for a bit, then headed out to slither-proof his RV.
He’s been putting boards around the top of the catio, boxing in the wiring tighter.
He got a few up tonight, but the dark hit too soon, and he didn’t finish.
He’ll finish tomorrow-he has to.
He’s leaving for Colorado on Friday, and the cats need their catio slither-proofed.
He thought they were secure, left them on the catio, went down-and Hank was back on the roof of the RV.
She either found a new slither spot, or he missed the right one entirely.

I’m all chattered out. 
Heron and Badger have headed to bed, so I guess I’ll head that way too.
