I think summer arrived. 80s in the forecast, as far as the eye can see, and I assume many of those 80s will turn into 90s, as often happens here. That makes me sad. Except for one thing. The pool will start warming up. Sadly, the beloved found a squirrel in the pool on Mother’s […]

We did one of my favorite things in the world last night. We went to a baseball game. It was fun and rainy and a bit chilly. Perfect baseball weather! The rain may have depleted attendance, or it may have been the fact that the Braves aren’t playing as well as one might hope just […]

I thought I was way ahead of my own busy day. I’ve exercised and yanked a few weeds, cleaned the upstairs, washed bedding, and written a few hundred words. Sadly, I only use my phone as a clock/watch these days, and it’s an hour and seventeen minutes behind. Why an hour and seventeen minutes? Anyway, […]
