The fires in NC ares still burning, three days after this report and the smoke was pretty heavy this morning as I took my walk.
By the time I made it home, my cat wouldn’t even sit on my lap, and she loves.to.sit. That is saying something – because she usually times it so that her body is in the air as mine is hitting the seat.

Yes she sits like that, yes she has allergies, and no she is not part cow. She also has a habit of cutting all her belly hair off and it is all I can do to stop myself from sticking some horns on her head and hanging a cow bell.
I guess she doesn’t like sausage.
In other news I have been craving smoked sausage all day.
Luckily all I have to do is smell my arm.
