Thanks for the links, Jon!

I washed the car yesterday, to celebrate turning over 100,000 miles. Washing one's car is a way to call up bad weather, and it arrived with a flourish. And I received a call from my friend Susie's grandson just as it was descending - would I go let her dogs out and feed them? She was in the hospital overnight because she fell. She was fine, but not home. I fought my way up the hill and took care of the dogs, but what a horrid time to go out.

Today I'll make a run and while out I'll drop off a load of Goodwill stuff. I'm pretty sure the recycle bin is full so I'll wait on that, but I take my newspapers (minus the slick ads) to the Humane Society where they always need clean paper to go in cages.
