RE: Book Progress, The Heat Dome, and Our Complicated Relationship with Mother Nature
It's been so crazy here—95 today and the feels like will put it well over 100. This heat usually doesn't descend on us until August. It makes me nervous about what's to come.

I hate to use chemicals, even on plants we don't eat. The chemicals have such a horrible ripple effect on the birds and beneficial insects. Thank you! The insecticide looks like it's really drying out

Thank you Nancy! The quote came up in one of my daily readers a few days ago, The Daily Stoic, and it was perfect for the book. Those earthquakes have been horrible in Venezuela! Was your town effected?

I really like the Prairie Fire variety. The color is amazing in spring and it's supposed to be fairly drought and disease tolerant. I was amazed how quickly the beetles appeared—seemingly overnight. We

I like all of that—especially the song by Bela Fleck! I feel like I was robbed of so much good music during my younger years because I listened to, mainly, mainstream music. Back in the late 70s and 80s

Thank you! No worries about the prize though, reading the post was reward enough. It's this kind of content that reminds me why I stay here.

Brilliant. To feel alone in a room full of people is human. Not pathological. The soul’s birthright. To think dandelions are ugly is more of an aesthetic failure, but common enough to be “normal.” Still

Absolutely. Acceptance is valuable as well for the things we can't understand.

That is so true. Thank you Nancy! I hadn't even thought of fears but I think most of us some have irrational ones. Enjoy your weekend!

I had no idea! I guess I'll have to wait and see which one I get.

RE: Precrastination
I got my first one in 2007 but didn't have a chance to use it until 2016. I probably won't be without an active passport now, just incase the opportunity to travel arises.

It can be quite addictive. I know! In just a few months we’ll be here two entire years. Sometimes it feels like twenty. 😂 We just had the plumbing leading to an outdoor spigot explode in the wall (I think

RE: Precrastination
I’m concerned with the physical impediments as well as the spirit starting to settle and the desire waning. My Dad was fairly active into his late 70’s but he suffered from a lot of pain.

It surprised me how much I enjoyed playing golf. We have a 9 hole course right across the street but haven't played once in the two years we've lived in the new house. It's probably been close to 15 years
