Everything is more slow today, because of the heat. I just woke up at the end of the walk this morning, after having already gone to the market. Today, I smoke outside mostly and marvel at our cats and Billy.

We are so very blessed with this smaller menagerie now that we may run into some financial restraints. i am super worried about Billy's teeth: his surgery from 4 years ago seems off in his mouth.

He still eats plenty of dry and human food. He does not mind me brushing his teeth. Its hard to say if he is in pain at all. I would prefer specialists to see him because his mouth is very very complicated.

we may be in for another 5K. It is okay: we have some cash aside from inlaw passing.
