Couch Dogs

Raining .    Little Walk, picked up my new glasses, took our almost 40 yo heavy little generator from the island to be repaired, stopped to pick up some things and visit with Eric and Anne and Cocoa Bean  who was SO excited to see us…she’s just turning two in a few days…A is looking very well with her latest drugs…E was stenciling numbers on new Jersey’s for the hs basketball team in hopes that there would be something for those kids to wear   On to pick up something at Peter’s ( almost recovered from a nasty long testing positive covid,  and play with Maple who also got very excited to see us… but settled down faster….I think she’s going on 8…or is it 9?  .then my plan was to go by Jamba Juice on way home for a smoothie from Tatum who has a summer job there ……blippable I’m sure :-). But she works a later time today so was at home having just completed year one at the UW.   So here she is anyway.   Loved seeing all this family…it’s been awhile.   Got gas …. All of 7  gallons…. and we are set with ArriveCAN pass to return to the island tomorrow late afternoon ferry so we can shop for food in Canada.   Yea!  I’m still breathing.   Sorry I’m too distracted to comment much right now…..I do appreciate all of you.

Revere what is in front of you, hope for nothing. Delight in what appears , have faith in poetry, Be content with the world, fight for it to remain.      Or something similar…..
