Weather forecast says heavy rains for next three days, so got everything that I needed for the next week; mostly pet food.

Now having a chai before riding through that misty village below to my farm another 30ish min away.

Been raining all day with few minutes of break - just enough to start preparing for an outdoor task, and resuming right as one is ready to step out.

As of 16:30, 43.6mm rain has been observed.

With weather like this, who wants to be out and about? Oh wait, I have cows who need to graze! *puts on raincoat*

Light rain started at around midnight and has been steadily increasing in intensity, as of 7am, my weather station has noted 16mm rain.

Woke up at 6, had a coffee, then got back under the blanket, with several cats for company.

Reached home a while ago, had dinner, now to see if it really rains as much as the forecast.

Took all of rest of the day, but broke yesterday's rain record!

#Kodaikanal #Weather

We're at 89mm rain in last 12 hours since midnight, 10mm to break yesterday's record :-P

It's been without much of a break so the weather station is counting one and half days as one rain event.

#Kodaikanal #Weather

Last 24 hours: 100mm rain.

Since midnight, it has rained 75mm as of 19:30.

Weather predictions seemed more dire, but it is potential, not measure. The potential did deliver tho!

I love these massive bunches of flowers towering over my head :D

#Gardening #BloomScrolling

Now that the sky has brightened up a bit - it's all grey and misty - while weather predictions insist it's gonna be sunny for a few hours, soon.

Yesterday's sunset was pretty

How does this work? I've been waking up minutes before my 6 am alarm no matter when I sleep.

Yesterday, I decided to wake up an hour earlier when going to sleep, did not set alarm, and yet, am up at 5.

10:45 am. 9 of 18 tasks for today done. Coffee anyone?

Oh 1 am already? Time for *panic sleep*!

Touch the ground with your index finger.

Push.

Deeper.

Now plant a seed.

Do it again.

@stefano @tonytoon that's true!

(Also, BSDs don't rugpull the commands as often as some other systems, so once committed to muscle memory, that skill stays useful for years)

Context: I was down with flu; delegated walking and feeding dogs to staff for last 3 days. Went for evening walk, noticed one of my dogs trying to poop, but didn't pass any stool. 3 hrs later, she's pooped a little amount of blackish liquid.

Tried contacting vet, no answer. Don't know if driving all the way to town late at night will be useful if the vet isn't there.

Ask: if you have/had a dog, and have a home remedy that worked for your dog's constipation, p.share!

I'm checking on Puppyta, gave her laxative on vet's advice over text (luckily had it in my medicine box for pets).

So far nothing out of ordinary - she's sleeping, wakes up and get out of her den whenever I go to check on her. Took her for short walks to see if she wants to poop, but isn't trying.

Now the long wait until morning to decide next course of action.
