Happy fifty-sixth day of summer to all who celebrate. This is a sunflower that showed up in my dahlia garden. I didn't plant it and have no idea how it got here. Gardening, like life, is full of surprises. I've chosen to embrace this surprise and enjoy its beauty.

Sh*t. Brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and their pups are in a Tornado Warning right now. Was listening to Max Velocity and heard their town mentioned over and over. Numbers didn't transfer to the new phone and husband still at work. Don't want to worry MIL if she doesn't know yet.

All hail Larry Purrsmore, the Spy with Nine Lives! 🥰 This former feral #cat helped wrangle Mouse and Bleu when they bolted, then chased A COYOTE when it came near while I worked! Was shocked. Puffed himself up and ran it off the ranch. Then ran to me to let him in the garage, lol.
Brave, silly boy.

Don't know how I've managed to avoid every single #Eurovision song this year. I'm usually on a metaphorical Eurovision IV drip by now. It started by accident then became a challenge once I'd realized - a challenge I'm sticking to so far.
Almost want to listen to a few but I'll hold strong!
I hope.

Just out of the shower.
Pondering.
Is any of this real,
or just a comedy bit that’s gotten out of hand?
A Family Guy gag that started okay but ran too long?
Have we been Truman Show’ed?
Is this a snow globe?
A glitch in the Matrix?
A pigeon?
🦋🤔
I should wear more sweaters.

I'm so glad I got over my bug a whole 24 hours before I managed to badly hurt my foot and ankle.
The universe just does not want me going anywhere or doing anything, does it?
Literally all I did was stand up out of a chair and poof. Collapse! Almost smashed my head but thankfully Alan was there. 😮💨

Missed the end of #GeneralHospital because the vet called. Way earlier than I thought. Bad news: Maddie has Cushing's. 😔
Unfortunately the test could not differentiate which type as it usually can, so we have to do some ultrasounds which may require a trip two hours (one way) away.
Exhausted. Sad.

The next time you feel any guilt or anxiety for having to cancel a therapy appointment last minute, just know there is probably someone out there who needs one last minute and might just take the chance to call and find out.
So glad I took the chance to find out today! #mentalhealth #selfcare #life

Worried about Cooper. 😢 He’s been bleeding but the vet is worried the trip to them (and worse, further to Tucson if later) might stress him more and tear bigger spots around his stitches. Now he’s acting off but is also super drugged so hopefully it isn’t his diabetes, too.

A SLAP! YES! And a great soap slap. Soaps need more slaps these days, for sure. Yay! #BeyondTheGates! :D
Like how did Joss NOT slap Willow at the hospital that day?! How has Kristina not double-slapped anyone?! Ava? Come on, #GH! Get slapping!
Ahem, I mean.
GH TIME now! 🥰

Oh, wait, interesting. My CBS stream is showing #BeyondTheGates now but my ABC stream is still on Tamron Hall? That's right. #GH comes on later for me now. Ooh, now I don't have to multi-task while multi-tasking while recuperating.

BOO! Neither my #BeyondTheGates nor my usual #GeneralHospital alarms went off?! What the heck! Missed the first six minutes of #BTG now. ARGH!
But like, WHOA what a spot to tune into. You go, Tamara Tunie!
(My original plan was to have #GH on one screen and Gates on the other. 😅)

SAG acknowledged actors who got their start in soaps. This truly feels like Soaps are back & being respected. I love this for the actors & the genre. Put some respect on our stories name. #Soapsky
