~ma for you, Shir.

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.

I wish it were warmer here—I packed for 75-85 like the forecast said. Instead it's been 65 max, and rainy, and my one long sleeve shirt and two pairs of pants are getting old while my cute shorts and tank tops are just useless weight to carry around. Boo!

Our wings are not tired.
Weather gods needs to mix things up a bit sending the heat from the west coasters in meara's direction.
I know it is hot out, but A/C is my friend and I don't go out much. My car lives in the garage now so that is a big help. Nothing worse than getting into a car that has been in the sun, particularly with black seats! When I park I will drive to the very end of the lot to park under trees.
I left my car in 'doggie mode' the other day to see how it worked. Excellent!! When I got out of my doctor's appt the car was at 73F with a notice on the display not to worry about the dog showing the current temperature. (I did not have a dog in the car) I won't do that again unless I actually have the dog with me, but I do have remote start and will use it to cool things off in advance. I dislike being a sweaty mess.
Another couple weeks and I will be headed to the Adirondacks again and leave the heat behind.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good luck, Shir!

Oh, that does suck.
I was up for a while in the middle of the night because my cat sounded like he was dying! I think in fact he was just sneezing? But it was very disconcerting. He seems fine in general.

Best of luck Shir!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I was a little worried about my cats because they never came in from the garage and demanded dinner last night, but I didn't want to get up and go look for them because the heat had sapped all my energy so I figured they were just sprawled on the relatively cool concrete out there. They did meow demandingly when I went out this morning, so I fed them breakfast out there.
That's pretty cool, Laura! Literally, for once.
I hope the climate matches your clothes for some of your trip, meara!
~ma, Shir!

I went for a follow up with my doctor today. She was very unhappy with my lungs still. So, she gave me a nebulizer treatment and prescriptions for another round of steroids and a second inhaler.

~ma, Shir. Let us know how it goes.
I'm sorry you didn't get a better update, sj. Pneumonia can be really persistent so do whatever it takes!

Thanks, Laura. At least ltc has camp next week. I plan on taking her in and napping until I pick her up.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I am at a virtual job fair. Hard to decide if I hate it more than an in-person job fair, or just the same amount.
