Aww, thanks! I agree, his family should scoop him up & take him to the rental (which I think has AC, but I'm not sure) with them. I'm fine here. We weren't in the path, so no loss of power, thankfully.

He's told me he is ok, but he's also a stubborn 87 YO and, if I'm understanding his daughter correctly, has refused to leave his home & go with the rest of the family elsewhere. 🙄😢😅 It's actually slightly cooler there than here in Austin, surprisingly enough.

Oof. I hope there's no power loss from it. My friends in Houston are still without power and it's so very hot there. 🙁

😂 I can almost see it doing that, too! Bossy little things. Is there more rain expected?

Thank you. It's been a year d a month, so the worst of the grief has passed, but when I do a funeral it floods back. The florist that did the spray for her skimped on it (I live in another state & couldn't do it myself) & it was awful. I don't ever want that for someone else.

#Sunset
It was a strange weather day today. Mostly sunny with some pretty clouds, then around 4 it was nothing but heavy clouds, and now this.
No doubt it's after effects of hurricane Beryl, even though it's long gone from the Austin, TX region.

Exactly! And that's why I stopped; damn it, I LIKED Murphy!! And why can't Harry have something good in his life?! 😭 I have his son's book in my list, but haven't purchased it yet. Good to know you liked it.

I stopped reading Dresden when I heard about Murphy; I just can't. She's a fav of mine. 🥺 Cinder Spires was good! Need to put that back on the pile, too. Have you read his son's book? I haven't yet, but hear it's quite good.

Have you met Harry Dresden yet? 📖 I'm guessing you have by now, since that's Butcher's longest running series. Loved the TV show! Very loosely based on the books, but the actors for Bob & Harry were superb choices in my opinion.

I enjoyed this book; been awhile since I've read it. Time to add it back to the TBR pile. Thanks for the reminder!

As do I. The house across the street from where I was staying, and the field behind it, went up in flames 5 days after I arrived. Thankfully no one died, but the house was destroyed.

I moved to Austin in August 2011 and wow, between the 30 some days of 112F and the raging fires, that was quite a welcome.

One of the more painful aspects of being a florist is making funeral arrangements, especially since my mom died.
I had always put a great deal of care into them, but since her death, I put my heart in there, too.

We added a small amount of water to the barf bucket, but yeah, its other life was a garbage collector. The thought of a bowl being used is pretty grim. 🤢

I've missed so much! Definitely time to read the series again, and also some of your Star Trek novels, especially Spock's World. I had to downsize my books for one of my many moves, and purged all my ST & YA novels. 🥺
