Sebastian isn’t home when I get there, so I lug all my bags inside and get the clothes started washing. My nose wrinkles while I put the other things away as I think about the upcoming surgery, the likelihood of pain being involved and even the potential for scars. Yeah, I’m a wimp and a wuss, but it is what it is. I grab a quick shower and slip on comfortable lounging clothes, opting for the minimal amount of clothing as possible. It’s hotter than hell outside today and even with the air conditioning, I feel as though I’ll boil if I wear anything besides the camisole tank top and shorts. “C’mon, boys, let’s go out,” I holler when I see Fred and Barney sleeping in the family room. Guard dogs they are not; I’ve been home for nearly forty-five minutes and saw them in those same spots when I walked through to my bedroom.

As they draw closer, I lean down and give them both some pats which has their tails wagging. They’re so laidback and easy-going that it baffles me that someone gave them up. I grab a bottle of water from the fridge then head outside to the back to watch them and maybe play for a bit. I snicker when I see them run through the tiny misting station that Sebastian created for them because ‘it’s so hot out right now’. If he’s like this with our pets, what on earth will he do for any children we might have down the road? They frolic and play for a bit, then come back over to the patio where I’m sitting, a fan blowing on me. I grab one of the towels that my crazy man brought out for just this reason and crouch down out of my seat so I can dry the two dogs off.

“Alright, boys, let’s head inside and see what we can put together for dinner.” They waddle along behind me as we step back inside to the blissful air. I pull out a couple of steaks for Sebastian to grill when he comes home, get them seasoned and put them back into the fridge. Then I make a few cold salads and cut up the watermelon we bought so it can chill. I’m glad that Sebastian feels the same about hot meals in the summer. Once everything is set, I grab my e-reader and head to the family room.
