How is it possible that a company can send me a package that arrives from Indianapolis in four days for $5.95, but the package I send to Georgia to arrive in 2-3 days costs me $12.70? This is why I pay most of my bills online.

Hand-feeding a kitten is no different from bottle-feeding a baby. Same schedule, same sleep-deprivation factor.

Current temp at 10:01 AM is 87 degrees; with the heat index, it's 94 degrees. Can you say "global warming"? High today projected at 102; I have no idea what the temp will be with the heat index. I'll get back to you on that.

Update: 6:04PM, 103 degrees, 111 with the heat index.

Working at home during the summer is great. I only drive when I have to. I save up errands until I have enough to justify the drive. I haven't put gas in my car since Father's Day.

When I was in Houston in May, I broke off a piece of an Angel Trumpet plant (with the owner's permission!). I put it in a bottle of water for a week, then stuck it in a pot and forgot about it. It's growing. They get HUGE and have the most beautiful flowers. Hummingbirds love them.

I hate footnotes in novels. I just finished Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, and the footnotes drove me bonkers.

I've been trying to read regularly this summer. So far, I've read three novels. I've just begun The Time Traveler's Wife.

I've buried seven kittens this summer. The vet says it's not my fault they died. I wish I could believe that.
I'm going to move my garden to the back end of my property. I've buried kittens everywhere else, and I'm afraid to plant where I've buried them. I don't want to unearth any kitten bones.

I love watching birds in my yard. In the evenings, I sometimes have 20 Cardinals flitting around.

Any day can be improved with a nap!
