Lordy, 4 days is a lot to try and catch up on. I’ve been trying mightily, and am nearly back to Friday, but then I suddenly realize you’re all writing MORE RIGHT NOW! aagh! *pants* So, even though I’m reading, I can’t possibly ALSO comment on everything because I’d be here until the cows come home.

As I was walking back to the car after dropping the kids off this morning, I passed a green corner of well-cared for, summer-leafed shrubs. No one was near me, but I could hear a snuffly panting low-voiced hih hih hih. I looked around, a bit perplexed. It was coming from under the shrubs.
