We read “The Witch of Blackbird Pond” in 5th grade, maybe. I have thought of it occasionally since then, decided to read it again. The copy I got off ThriftBooks is marked up by some student, mostly noting examples of alliteration & personification… then some are like this one : “WHO CARES - YOLO”

Today’s adventure started with the house filling with natural gas; awesome. Workers tell me someone nicked a gas line, “Nothing to worry about - happens all the time!” …does it.
Huh.
So… I am readying my heart for the possibility of returning home tonight to a smoking crater (shrug emoji)….

Today has been: moving books, dogwalk, laundry & more moving, three estate sales (including one we had to wait in line for; there was rain but I do keep an umbrella in the lobster), another dogwalk, wee touch of cozy time while the rains really come down out there, and then another nother dogwalk…

Today is the day the motorcycle people have decided to emerge from hibernation, and as usual they have all forgotten how to drive & what the rules of the road are, so - watch for them! Bikers out there being super stupid.

Definitely exhausted.
I need more sleep than there are hours in a day, but there is too much to do to take that nap.
