July 22 Thank you

If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough. Meister Eckhart Thank you


July 21 Moo Shu

There is no such thing as too much swearing. Swearing is just a piece of linguistic mechanics. The words in-between are the clever ones. Peter Capaldi Moo Shu pork. My swear words for the day. It’s good to be creative, using the same f words everybody eles use just make you the same. Every time…


July 20 Now it’s official

Time is the fire in which we burn. Gene Roddenberry We have an official smoke warning, the smoke has been here since the fires started, but now it’s in a weather statement. Yup more smoke, more severe weather (smoke causes lightning storms, which causes more fires and more storms), more headaches, sore throat, sore lungs,…

Laughing at the forecast, rain followed by smoke and more smoke. I just did litter boxes. I know, yesterday’s job. Huffing and…

July 14 HEAT & SMOKE

There’s so much pollution in the air now that if it weren’t for our lungs there’d be no place to put it all. Robert Orben The heatdome is back, more extreme heat warnings. All I see is extreme smoke. At some time today, I need to dig a grave for Stripey. The smoke makes it…

A great cat has passed. Stripey is gone.
