That reminds me - we had a cabin our first night at Rock Creek, which didn't have it's own bathroom, and the nearest restroom didn't have a sink. We got in around 2 am and discovered that we hadn't packed any soap, so the next morning after breakfast we bought some Dr. Bronners at the camp store, all good. After we'd been backpacking we ended up in the same cabin and discovered that under the sink was a washbasin, dishrack, bottle of Dawn, and a pump of lemony handsoap. No one opened that cupboard the first time we were there. @@
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Our wings are not tired.
I usually forget when I am not in Florida that cold water can be really cold.

Ack, I have a one-on-one I forgot about.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Minnesota cold water stays cold all year long. When I was growing up in Cleveland, OH there was usually a period of late summer when the cold water was more luke-warm. And of course in AZ there was the money saving trick of turning the heating element in the water heater off during summer months so you could use the water from the hot tap for cold water, and the quite warm water from the cold tap for hot. That only really worked if your water heater tank was in the insulated, air-conditioned part of your home.
Cass, this terrible thing that happened to your family, I can't begin to imagine the pain and stress. But please know that your urge to come here for solace and any help we can give, it's a good thing. Don't worry that there is a time limit or expiration date on belonging here. We understand that life gets in the way of posting regularly, sometimes a person has to concentrate their attentions elsewhere. We drift in, we drift out, we drift back, we drift forth. I think we're like the Jets (only with less animosity to the Sharks, Ysinging&dancingMV ) - Once a Buffista, always a Buffista.

The water in our bathroom sinks is set to scalding, and the soap is very drying and smells horrible. It's hard to time proper handwashing with avoiding getting burnt.

Idly looking at houses in the new location, and boy, there's a lot of barn and barn-adjacent decoration.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I think you're supposed to say "boy howdy" now.
