Had to clean away a mound of bear-chewed garbage from the side of the car before I could get to school yesterday. DJ, coming home five minutes after I did, saw four bears, but I saw the garbage.

Carpenter the Plumber (that never gets old) fixed my leaky faucet for free. There I am chasing him up the walk with my checkbook in my hand and him waving me away.

Read Before We Were Found among the Ruins with J. She hadn’t been moved by it until we read it, she said. We agreed it’s “subtle.” I wonder of I want to be doing subtle theater right now. She gave me a loaf of banana bread I saw coming out of the oven.
