High heat and humidity, plus a heavy layer of smoke from the wildfires in Canada is making the air quality around here quite harmful. So we’ve been staying inside. I run outside to water wearing goggles and a mask. My chronic respiratory issues are definitely impacted by this. One more day of smoke – I think – and it should get better. It’s very hard to deal with but nothing compared to what Canada is experiencing. I pray for everyone there, every living thing. I can’t bear to think about the animals who are trapped. And the First Nations members who have lost entire communities. Please, please, universe – let there be some relief today.
Rowan when she first arrived. I finally found room for her on one of the shelves, but it required some reassigned seating.
Late yesterday afternoon, I started laying the floor in the entrance hallway. Today, I’ll finish it. Messy, fussy work, which ends with glue and stain all over my fingers.
I have to read a lot over the next couple of days as Land will be due at the library. It is an exquisite piece of writing. Maggie O’Farrell is one of my favorites.
That’s it for today.
Stay safe.
Happy Friday.
