September 1

Where did summer go? The temperatures here have moderated to fall values with highs barely breaking 90. The mornings have become cool enough I have to wear my robe while sitting out on my back pad. The cement is cold enough to require slippers to protect my feet. Speaking of which, the ones Carol knitted (crocheted?) for me years ago have pretty much worn out.

I spent most of last weekend wishing I were up north at the big thing, even if I would have had to bring my own food. :) The biggest disappointment so far is the lack of images. Picassa, Flicker, etc., etc., all sit barren of images.

Classes began last Thursday. Already I feel overwhelmed and I have not started the third one. So far they have been interesting. Still trying to squeeze some cash out of the loan peoples, but they are so very slow. Good thing I don't need to eat, right? It is not quite that bad, but they definitely are slow.

Carol decided we were suffering a dearth of cats, so we went to the SPCA Saturday and looked at some potential new owners. She lost her heart to a little baby, who will come home with us Wednesday. 2 months old, pure kitten.

What a pleasant morning.
