Today’s Reflection:
Much of Flag is getting
a nice downpour, it hasn’t arrived at my place, but it’s a comin’.
I did two loads of
laundry this morning. I also cleaned out the new bedroom closet and go rid of some
old clothes to give me more room. Purging can be good.
While I have been complaining
about our local smoke from the fires, our little town is in much better shape
than parts of the NE states where daily air is considered dangerous. I guess it’s
time to order some new N95 masks…just in case I need them.
Historical events
Cool to know:
HIGH
High has been used to mean elevated since the Old English period. But in relation to being intoxicated, high has been used to describe the effects of drugs since 1935, while people have been getting high on alcohol since 1607.

head. Her long tail striped with white and brown spreads out like a fan, her
round face facing down. Elizabeth Yicheng Shen/Audubon Photography
