Heat fatigue. Ugh. Sinus infection in heat, ugh-er.

actual wooden clogs

Do they still sell Dr. Scholl's sandals? I used to wear those, and now I'm thinking--why?

I'm glad you got a HFD hug, Gud.

Congratulations on your progress and determination, Tom.

I seem to have mislaid my October weather, dammit.

I just can't quite get into Twitter. Facebook is enraging enough. It's really hard not to engage, and yet it seems both sides just keep getting more and more entrenched, making engagement a frustrating waste of time and energy.

Ugh, Amy! Sinus infections are never a good time. I hope relief comes quickly.

I can't stop looking at Twitter, but I feel like I'm going to lose my mind if I don't stop looking at Twitter.

I get that. I also can't help taking a quick look at the Fox News website every once and awhile. Not much mention of family separation there. The big stories are the IG report on the FBI, a corruption case against a Puerto Rican mayor, and a rude message written on a receipt at a restaurant.

Oh, hey, 5 years as a full-time employee here as of yesterday. I believe I start accumulating vacation time faster now.

More vacation is good!

I checked real quick and it looks like a wolf-like creature being identified through DNA in Montana has pushed the rude message out of the top stories. Turns out the wolf-like creature was a wolf.

Right?

Woohoo more vacation!

ltc had her evaluation today. Results are that she is very smart and very stubborn. Her vocabulary is very advanced for her age and she can understand and follow directions "when she wants to". Ha!

Timelies all!

sj, that sounds a lot like Mr. S.

We survived visiting my folks, though we got home later that we wanted last night, and things were a bit chaotic. Um, chaotic-er?

It was over 90 degrees at 5 pm, so of course Mr. S wanted to take a long walk outside. Bleh.
