Summer, Tennessee and I all got an afternoon nap today.
It must have been because of all that getting up early we did this morning.
She is so, so sweet.

A Summer workout. She practices her own version of extreme tail wagging. She says it burns enough calories that she should get extra treats.
I'm not so sure.

Summer wishes she lived in Canada.
I told her that we can only wish because we are too old to immigrate anywhere. We are fortunate to be in a blue state at least.
I am embarrassed and horrified at the stupidity of the orange demagogue ruining our country and renaming stuff.
The rest of our beach time we skipped around in the sand thanking our lucky stars for the gift of being together on this wild and beautiful shore even for an hour.
Love you all

Summer and I have the same habit of waking up right before the alarm would wake us anyway. Not sure why but I'm not sure if much these days. Regardless you can count on us to be up with the chickens most mornings. We had everything laid out so we could get in a quick adventure before zooming back home to get our truck to the shop. When my husband was in the hospital and my car was in the shop I realized driving the truck sucked because it needed new shocks. It isn't my favorite to drive anyway but yikes.
Today's the day.
Summer and I managed to get in an hour of good exercise, got the truck checked in on time and breakfast all before 9.
We are cookin with gas today for sure.
Good morning, Mastodon.

Summer wanted to play.
Run off a little energy before dinner.
You can really tell when the afternoon sun finds her. She is literally golden.
I asked her to get me out for an adventure tomorrow morning because I ate too many cookies today. She said no problem.
I've decided that peanut butter chip cookies are my current cryptonite. Evil but in a very tasty way.

Summer and Tennessee took a seat to listen in on our discussion this morning.
Well.
She listened for awhile before she had an opinion.
Her pal, all of the sudden, is worried what will happen to us, if something happens to him.
It's true that most of our income is tied to him.
It is also true that because he was a professional aerial firefighter no one would sell us life insurance.
These are things I have always known.
I'm not worried.
Summer's not worried either so we tell him he shouldn't worry.
We know how to make do.
I have marketable skills if I needed to supplement my income.
I told him that someone would pay us to cook, clean, bake and help them.
I could get a roommate.
We have options.
Summer says worrying about these things isn't the best use of our energy.
Time for breakfast and big ol bear hugs all around.
Good morning Mastodon.

Yesterday was cleaning day.
Summer and I cleaned the house all day long.
Time to take care of deferred maintenance.
We met with a contractor who agreed to paint outside and will replace our largest picture window which failed years ago. Huge and way the heck up there it will be a project. Right when I think the last major projects are done they aren't really.
I also finished writing 200 more voter postcards to be mailed today to Texas.
100 Maine postcards to write before we wait for the next batch.
Time to get some breakfast on the table so I can head to the farmer's market with my daughter.
I wasn't sure what to think about the the attention my last toot got. I was surprised. The act of surviving shouldn't be such a miracle, but it is, and really hasn't gotten easier in fifty years.
My cheering section was keeping me company while I was flipping hotcakes this morning.
Summer says good morning Mastodon.

I took the scenic route home from MG International 2026. Fortunately, Michigan is chock full of scenic routes.
Aug. 28, 2026. Michigan.

Summer is still here as clouds boast they're not done, but leaves have other ideas.
Have a good evening and a great weekend, everyone.

Some of my green shiso plants have started flowering. I'm saving their seeds to share.

Despite what my body is telling me, we are now in a micro-season called 'Manageable Heat' (処暑 'Shosho'). From tomorrow the traditional calendar promises us that 'heat starts to die down' (天地始粛 'tenchi hajimete samushi' - August 28th to September 1st)...let's see🤔
On Monday I broke my toe. It was uncomfortable the past two days. Today it was relatively pain-free. Decided to go for an easy trail run this evening, maybe two miles.
Well...it ended up a *very* technical 5K over rough terrain and I crushed it. I will definitely feel this one in the morning.

Enjoying a relaxing morning.
Watching Dolly tributes on the television with my favorite lapdog.
Dolly was a special person.
Today will be catch up day here with a retest of our well water, some raspberry patch maintenance and voter bound postcards to write and mail. Probably some banana muffins getting baked too.
We hope today treats you all kindly.
Good morning, Mastodon.
