Seven newly-discovered, possibly habitable planets to ponder. How cool is that?
At 70-something, we are apparently very different people from the people we were at 14. Does this surprise you? I’m of two minds, myself.
Fort Worth contractor guts wrong house. It could have been much worse, actually.
Any excuse to exercise less, IMO. Crazy-brief intense exercise is as good as long workouts.

(I’m off to visit my baby girl this weekend, so words are scarce. Too much hugging and laughing going on!)
Enjoy your visit ( this is going to be a reply list); hugging and laughing are great. I want to read all your books; I only have Bliss House, I am allergic to cats ( 🙁 ) . I thought Faye Dunaway and Liz Taylor were wonderful, and I would truly love to visit Hemingway’s home in Key West and since Flannery O’Connor is one of our great American writers; I would adore seeing where she lived.
We had such a great time, Skye! I’ll have pictures of the beautiful theater on Tuesday, but no one was allowed to take pictures of the Lion King Jr. production, darn it.
