Happy Birthday in heaven to my sister Jill. I miss you every day, and I'll have a gin and tonic tonight in your memory. Sisters are different flowers from the same garden.

It's "Gotcha Day". Five years ago, Maud left her cage at the Humane Society to live with me. She's my little ray of sunshine, and she keeps me on my toes. #adoptdon'tshop

Thank you to my friend Will for introducing me to this. The performer says that he "plays the piano a bit." It's worth your time, and you may never hear this song in the same way again.

Happy 150th birthday to Lucy Maud Montgomery! Her books still resonate with so many readers. I hope that she would approve that I named my cat Maud in her honour. (Montgomery had 4 cats)
