Just like many other dogs, Lani gets freaked out by fireworks and thunder, but she still likes (or needs) to go outside during storms. The expression on her face and position of her ears in today’s photo tells you that there was plenty of thunder this afternoon. Poor puppy!

Farewell to the Old Heater

The other day the space heater that I use in the home office finally died. One of the switches was faulty and didn’t always turn the heater on. Well, the last time, the switch started smoking so I decided that it had finally had enough. But this heater which we bought when we lived in Japan had served us for 22 winters. Actually, our memories are a little foggy on the true origin of that heater… Mariko might have had it before we met so it could have been older than 22 years.

Anyway, I’m a little sad to see it go, but I told it thank you and goodbye. We had a good run!
