Our wings are not tired.
Woot! Double digits!
Laura, no, mourning isn't easy, but I wish I could be less stuck in feeling bad about stuff from decades ago.
Nope, no time schedule on it either.

4th grade. We kept her in preschool an extra year because of Covid.

Can't help wishing I were further along or something, though.

I love that sound. The nighttime summer soundtrack of my childhood was cicadas, bullfrogs in the creek, the a/c unit humming around the side of the house, the hum in a different key of the pool filter running, and (sometimes) a transistor radio playing late 70s/early 80s top 40 music (I’m particularly remembering “Bette Davis Eyes” for some reason).

I don’t really miss cicadas but they are definitely the sound of summer for me even though I never hear them out here

We don't have cicadas where I live, north or south, but we stayed in Macon GA on the way drive north this year, and they were amazingly loud. I'd only heard them a couple times previously. Very cool. And Loud!
