Pretty sure I have never said that to another human, but I had cause to think or exclaim it while bothered by a select few insects (or arachnids … wait for it) this week. A few evenings ago, I was dozing in Gary’s chair when I felt an odd sensation on my right arm. To … Continue reading
Now it seems like some kind of miracle, or at least a bit of luck, that we had a day dry enough to mow the lawn. It took many hours to dry enough even in the high spots, and then for me to have the energy in the late afternoon/evening was also unusual. That was … Continue reading
