I see a red moon arisin’…🎶 Tonight the moon is supposed to be spectacular in many places, but mama’s friend in Hawaii says she won’t be able to see it. Hmmm….looking that one up. Oops, can’t be seen in many places so we’re not sure we will see it either, but the moon this week has been truly lovely so perhaps...

Today we thank all of the 100 (and perhaps more who have not yet spoken out of fear or shame) victims of Epstein and Trump and any other male predator who caused terrible pain and suffering in these women’s lives. We laud their courage, and even as they spoke, Trump sent an army plane to fly over and drown out their truths. Typical behavior. They are...

Shh…Wordless winds are blowing softly today as another end of a golden summer afternoon is upon us. Along with you know who… Mama is giving him his little early dinner as I write, so he has once again guided her hand to the paté and is eating happily in our garden. He is getting a little picky, if you ask me, but no one did. That kitty keeps me...

Quel jour! Papa is, I think, becoming a teensy bit attached to Mr You Know Who, non? Well, papa was telling mama about Rasta this morning and how he, Rasta, was a bit standoffish when he didn’t get his snuggle with papa for a couple of days and then papa went out to the garden ao see how he was, Rasta, that is, and after a bit of cold shoulder, Mr R...

  This is going to be a quickie because of all the action around here, not the LEAST of which is that kitty staring at papa through our French door with that ‘don’t you want to come play a little, papa’ look… Shameless, that Rasta… But I am making a Splash instead (Splash from Lunipic). ***** And tomorrow Labor Day, which...

Well, I know that’s confusing but mama missed Thursday and is helping me to both Thursday and Saturday together and she’s even going pretty fast on these because of lack of time. Getting ready for a long trip is not as easy when your washing machine door breaks and water is all over the floor and you have a saggy bed that needs replacing and...

We are BEAT! Well, today was a bit too much for mama and papa because the kids and family left for Rome and that was SAD, SAD. And then they had forgotten to call someone they couldn’t visit but had said they would be visiting but that turned out okay because the person had more visitors than she could handle, too. And then there was a bit of rain...
