Sanity is overrated.

Exactly! It's because of too much sanity that people do all those crazy things! They can't stand the pressure!

It's been one of the coolest Julys I can remember.

Today the high is only supposed to be 72F/22C.

By the way, what's the plural of July? Julys doesn't look right, but Julies is certainly not either. I have one Julie (DD #2)--I don't need another one.

This is definitely the best July I've experienced since moving to the US in 05. I wish every summer could be like this! It's only 71 degrees outside right now. Bliss!

This humidity here has got to go. Seriously, ugh.

Sat Nam! (Literally "Truth Name"--a Sikh greeting)

My mad scientist brother says he keeps his sanity by using it as little as possible.

The problem with all the crazy things is that these are what people like to read about, so these are the things that get reported, then everyone gets the idea that this is what is happening to the world. (This is why we don't watch the news or read newspapers...usually.) Actually, life goes on most places just like it always has.

and pie to all.

Blessings,

I was going to respond but I am distracted by your avatar and the overwhelming desire to rub your belly.

Everyone wants to rub my tummy.

FIFY!

Some of us are more beautiful without pants.

For example, Anne Hathaway . . .

Rub my tummy.

no.

I will share my kale.

You don't have any to share.

But I do.

I'll have a green juice, please.

Sorry, I drank the last of it this morning. But I have all the stuff to make a fresh batch tomorrow.

Could you add some bacon to it?

My cousin just made a salad of watermelon, orzo, feta, and basil. It's pretty good! We both decided it would be better after sitting in the refrigerator overnight to let the flavors blend.

There's lots of that, if you want some.

Bacon is overrated.

It's 76 degrees with humidity to match! *&#$^ Go ahead and laugh, but we don't have a/c except for an ancient wall unit (Monkey Wards) in the bedroom.

Don't say things like that!

Look, GSHoFF! My 60,000th post!


. . . and no one is here to see it.

At least eight of those posts were about writing.

Good morning, house of energetic and hungry cats.

And, for anyone else who's hungry, we are now serving Fancy Feast Savory Salmon Feast in the utility room. Seating is limited . . . actually, it's not existent but you can use the washer and dryer as tables.

Mai Ling is licking the monitor!! (It's so not fair to tease her like that.)

I'm off to go shopping. My favorite fabric shop is having their winter sale.

My mother sewed a lot. When I was little I would go with her to the fabric stores. In those days a lot of the clerks didn't measure using any kind of tape, they would hold the fabric and stretch it to their nose--they knew how long that was. They could measure four yards of fabric in seconds.
