A crappy day made better by the following:

It was one of those days when people were disappointing. Pathetic attempts to disparage the sincere efforts of others and the spreading of self-serving misinformation intended to malign a group who only exist to serve their community seemed to be the order of the day. I am ashamed to say I let it get to me. So much so that instead of cooking the fabulous meal I had planned, I asked David to take me to Sonic for dinner. AND I had a cherry limeade. I could say that I’m hanging my head in shame over that meal but I’m not. Sometimes you just need a cherry limeade. My only regret is that I didn’t ask for extra cherries.

But here it is after 10 p.m. and I’m letting it go. People are what they are, even when they pretend they aren’t. Or something like that. Anyway, how about some adorableness?

The kittens are getting cuter every day. Two of them opened their eyes today. As I held each of them up to my face and talked to them, I wondered what they were thinking of this brand new world and this huge human face cooing to them. Probably, “Where’s my mother?!”.

And then there’s the sweetest dog on the planet, Shiloh. He’s supposed to lie on that green sheet when he’s on the carpet but he hasn’t quite mastered that yet. Here he is watching tv with David:

Tomorrow will be a better day because I will make it so. It will be Friday and I have plans. Nothing elaborate but plans, nonetheless. They include sunshine and music and books and food. And maybe wine. In fact, definitely wine.
