Typed in the words I'd written in my spiral yesterday and, whoa, I ended up with 512 words handwritten. Cool. So, the total word count I wrote yesterday ended up being 2,529 words.

Our rescue is fundraising, not only to fill the cupboards, but to pay vet bills. Like for lovely Pixie who had to have ALL her teeth pulled recently.

As a no kill shelter, they don't euthanise the scaredy babies, which means feeding them.

It rained ALL day and was AWESOME! I spent a lot of the day out. I think I overdid it. And have stayed up too late now. Must sleep. Read a lot today. Wrote 2,017 words on DDD on the computer and I wrote some in a spiral, too. I estimate about 300 words. I will type them in tomorrow.

Congress’s shutdown deal eliminated key food safety rules, blocking agencies from enforcing measures to prevent contamination and trace outbreaks. This rollback has coincided with a surge in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.
Shutdown Deal Kills Rules to Prevent Food Contamination and Foodborne Illnesses
The gutting of these rules coincides with a huge increase in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.

I have a pretty huge headache, and I guess I should sleep. I wrote 1,744 words on Dumps, Dives & Divas NaNo edition today and I read a lot on the book I'm currently reading. One final thing: HOORAY FOR WEEKEND! And for rain!

I decided that I didn't feel like raiding tonight. Headache was affecting already bad vision. Instead, family and I went to Applebee's for dinner. I didn't realize how much we needed that. It was wonderful.

Visiting the Jamaraquá community in the Amazon River Basin was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to learn about local climate solutions and the sustainable economic practices happening here.

Proud to stand with Indigenous leaders in working to help California drive real solutions to the climate crisis.

I am pleased with myself. I passed 1,000 words written this morning before work. If I'm not too wiped out, I'll try to get my 667 more words done between work and raid.
