So I shut the basement door and let him in while leaving the back window open so he can come and go.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually he came up where I&#8217;m working, protested for a short period of time before laying down and playing with anything that moves. Then asleep.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s sort of how I woke up this morning. First at 6 (this will never happen unless the house is on fire), then 7, then 8 &#8230; fed the cats &#8230; then 9 and finally up at 10am for good.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 660px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-487-1\" width=\"660\" height=\"371\" poster=\"https:\/\/westerman.photo\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2017-10-08-13.03.38.png\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/westerman.photo\/wp-content\/uploads\/pifi1.ham_.co_20171008-064501_30fps_1080_trim.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/westerman.photo\/wp-content\/uploads\/pifi1.ham_.co_20171008-064501_30fps_1080_trim.mp4\">https:\/\/westerman.photo\/wp-content\/uploads\/pifi1.ham_.co_20171008-064501_30fps_1080_trim.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>I&#8217;m very curious if that video will work for you since I&#8217;m not sending it through YouTube like I normally would.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday I spent most of the day cutting all 20 acres of grass on the property knowing that it was going to be raining all day today.
