It was so gorgeous outside this afternoon. The weather tablet in our office said it was an unseasonably warm 87ΒΊ outside…

Oscar’s groomer was deemed non-essential when the closed all the Ohio businesses. He’s gotten so shaggy over the six weeks. And you could tell lately he’s just been really warm and uncomfortable…

So this afternoon we tried to give Oscar a haircut…

I’ve cut my hair twice so far during the stay home. It’s turned out pretty nice both times.
I thought, “How hard could it be to cut Oscar’s hair?”
It turns out that cutting Oscar’s hair is a lot harder…

I didn’t do a very good job. At all…

Dang. Sorry, buddy. I have a new respect for the amazing job Lauren at VCA College Hill does with Oscar.
Later, we fired up the grill again…



Those burgers were just out of this world. ππΎππβ€οΈ
UPDATE: Oscar’s groomer has started to take appointments again starting May 13th and he has an appointment for Friday, May 15th. So he won’t have to be uncomfortable for much longer and maybe she can even out the mess I made of his coat.

We noticed on InstagramΒ that Second Place has started selling their delicious bourbon slushes to go. So you know we had to get a couple of slushies…


I think they repainted the building next to Second Place…

And The Littlefield was open for carry-out as well…

And we sat out in our backyard and enjoyed our slushes…


Hopefully this mess will start to look better very soon…

And Oscar hopes so too…


What a great way to send a Friday evening. Ugly or not, I love our backyard. ππ‘π»β€οΈ

And speaking of pretty clouds, how beautiful were these clouds over Northside?

As promised, I switched desks at work today. I wasn’t the only person. Almost everyone shifted desks at work today. Here was my old set-up…


And here is my new set-up…


Pretty much exactly the same. Just a little bit further from the window. Bit of a bummer.
And that makes this, the last WyzeCam photo from Grey Midwest…

Dang. At least, they brought in a whole bunch of different McDonalds breakfast stuffs for the big move this morning…

I ate a bacon, egg & cheese biscuit and almost immediately didn’t feel good. And that’s why I don’t eat McDonalds.
The view from the other side of Grey’s floor looking east is so pretty. I love all the highways overlapping each other and there are some train tracks over there with the Ohio River and the rolling hills in the background…

And those clouds…

If I could set-up a WyzeCam looking out of this window. I would probably watch this view all day long. I’d never get anything done.
On the bus ride home, I got to see the progress they’ve been making on the building they were constructing across from where I used to work…

They’ve really made some progress. And I finally feel like have too. π€π»π·π§β€οΈ

They did it! They actually mowed the grass on the empty lot at the end of our street. The grass has been mowed with less and less frequency ever since some overzealous parent from the Montessori school up on top of the hill decided it would be a good idea to turn that green space into a fruit orchard. So far, the result has been large piles of wood chips that have gone undisturbed for months and knee-high weeds. But today, the company that does the landscaping for the school actually decided to mow the grass…

It’s a modern miracle. I wonder when this space will actually become an orchard?


Probably not while we’re living in Northside. π€πβ€οΈ

We stopped at Queen City Radio again on the way home from work for a whip classic cheeseburger, a cheese coney, and some fries…

We love the whip classic…


YUM! We love Queen City Radio Thursdays!Β ππππβ€οΈ

Compared to yesterday, today was very pretty downtown…


I really like my window view at work. But tomorrow, I have to change desks and most likely won’t have my spot by the window anymore. And it’s a bummer. πποΈπ«οΈβ€οΈ
