Another day with no rain and temperatures in the 80's and it is almost Fall.

Tom caught a rat today and after it was dead he threw it around in the air and played with it before tearing it apart. Jared Ammon took a video.

Jared got another bee sting but this one didn't swell up like the last one did. Maybe his system is getting use to them.

James had an appointment at Horne this morning to look at a car. I didn't go because I thought it might take awhile and I had a lot to do before we go to Texas. He called me and told me he was going to buy the car. It's a 2021 Chevrolet Equinox with around 35,000 miles. He called me and told me he was going to buy it and I would need to come back with him to drive it home, which I did. Here is a picture of the car:

I'm naming my car Celeste.

I love her!

Before going upstairs I put my puzzle which I have started but not finished into baggies so it won't be left out while I am gone. 

I started cleaning upstairs but ended up just washing sheets. I made scalloped potatoes in the crockpot and green chili stew in the stockpot. The potatoes were more like soup because I doubled the sauce. James and Jared ate both for dinner. I did most of the dishes but got tired and asked James if he would finish for me and he did. 

We went into the bedroom and listened to "Hearts of Briarwall." I worked on my blog and James walked. 

Jared Ammon said Dallin told him to get rid of the bees before they come up. I laughed and said, "Is there anything else we can do for you Dallin?"
