It was reported yesterday that we&#8217;ve received a third of our total annual rainfall over the weekend.  That is pretty wild.  Sure seems like it though, it&#8217;s been dumping.  We lost power last night around 10:00 PM, and it just came back on.  What a nuisance.  I was about to hook the generator up when it finally came back on.  Some day our eternally back-ordered Tesla batteries will come in and that hassle will be a thing of the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other than that unwanted excitement, I guess it was sort of a down weekend.  Saturday was just a bit eventful, as we took our little foster pup Grey to a &#8220;meet and greet&#8221; and some suckers (errrr, I mean &#8220;loving family&#8221;) adopted her.  Actually they were a very nice couple, with a little boy.  Hopefully the pup works out for them.  I was just a little worried&#8230;  young puppies just ain&#8217;t for everyone.  Pretty sure we found a good match though when they sent us a picture of Grey in a new sweater she&#8217;d knitted her on Sunday.  Then, a few hours later, another.  Side note, I found it rather impressive that somebody could knit a little doggy sweater that fast.  Looks complicated to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sunday, blech.  I have to say, I was pretty excited for the Chiefs game.  What a letdown.  Not even remotely entertaining.  I did make a semi-tasty pot of ham and beans to sooth the sting though.  They came out OK.  I used a recipe off the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/hurstbeans.com\/recipes\/slow-cooker-ham-and-bean-soup\" target=\"_blank\">Hursts Beans<\/a> site.  I&#8217;ve always wanted to try that 15 bean mix, for some inexplicable reason.  Pretty solid!  Tasted like&#8230; well&#8230; ham and beans.  I did not, however, add the tomatoes as called for.  Because this is America.  And Americans don&#8217;t put tomatoes in ham and beans.  I pointed this out to them in a strongly worded email, which they for some reason seemingly ignored.  Either that or a SWAT team is in route to my house. <\/p>\n\n\n\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, big storms out west.
