"You're the needle in the hay, the water at the door. You’re a million miles away."

We reached 84˚F yesterday, just shy of the record temperature for the day. Currently, it's 67˚F. Kathryn is at the garage with the car, and hopefully this will be the last round of car drama. Only, a new round of cat drama seems now to have emerged to take its place.

Resistance, Peace, and Compassion,
Aunt Beast
