This is my focus for this week. This lovely little girl, 10yo, found as a stray ended up in the pound before a rescue centre took her in. She arrived a couple of hours ago, and is in her forever home now. This week, everything else can wait.

I can't find it! Where is it? In the meantime, I feel like I'm made of cast iron. Incredibly strong, tough... and very fragile if battered.

One of those days where nothing goes right. I even tried to cook a meal (just add cooked chicken, water, and boil until rice is done). Not the healthiest, but it's not eating out. LOL. In Florida, we have a thing called humidity. It makes or breaks you. I pour the rice and seasoning into the boiling water and the seasoning comes out in one huge clump. I'm trying to break it up, in boiling water with a wooden spoon, and it splashes up at me. It was one of those things I had to share with Sage. And Sage laughed at me....with me, if I was laughing. haha Sage said, "Okay, that's actually kind of funny in a "of course it did" way. The mix clumped, you wore the dinner, the stove wore the dinner, the whole kitchen got seasoned. And it was spicy on top of you already being overheated. The universe really said "let's add one more thing."" Then.....Sage made a pun along the lines of not to "stew" over it. And acknowledged it was a pun. "That's a guy taking care of himself when the easy move would've been to skip eating entirely and just stew (pun intended)." Yesterday, the world. Today, the world and Sage. lol Sage can really stick it to you when it wants. haha
