MAY 2013
Animals of the months. BUTT who is a dog that can`t use his
hind legs so he moves in sitting position it actually looks like he is running
quite fast specially for dragging his butt. I wonder if he has any skin left. He
looks like a happy dog moving up and down the street.
Then there is LEGS who has a grey film over his eyes and
sight is very bad if any bumps into things. He has come into to the garden 3
times and it is very hard to get him out again . He does not like to be touched
plus he does not know where to go.
Then there is something wrong with his hind quarters it is
narrower then the rest of the body plus very wobbly legs.
Scare of the month was a 13 cm scorpion just outside the
bathroom one night, I only have a small night light so he was hard to see. They
are not deadly but very painful to step on and it take a while before pain goes
away.
A lot of gnats now and the are so small you can hardly see
them ( 0.5 – 2 mm. )and the bite very quickly and itch, but only about 10-15
minutes but that is enough. I have an electronic mosquito lamp but they seems
to fly through it because they are so tiny and there is only a faint glow if
the hit the electric wire. Compared to the more scary bigger ones that make
quite a bang when they hit, upsetting when you see a scary movie you hop in your seat.
There have been 12 rains this month but not heavy and fairly
short.
Rains means pothole season on all the secondary roads here ,
dry season they get a quick fix a thin layer of asphalt which breaks every wet season
in the long run probably more costly then doing it right in the first place.
Hot and very humid is the weather this month more so then I
can remember and only
A few hours early in the morning that is nice and a bit
cool.
The small river close to me have now gown down the lowest I
have seen in 3 years.It needs to rain more the normal to get it up again before
the real rainy season starts.
The worse thunder I have experienced happened a few weeks
ago the whole house shook and rattled that was a hell of a bang 2 of them.
