August 2025

Already 8 months into this year. Time seems to be going both fast and slow. The months seem to be coming fast but during the month it seems slow.

Been reading more than writing. My muse is being somewhat quiet this month which is nice in a way after the way she was, however I need her to get into gear and get this WIP done so I have something new for Hootin An Hollarin. But my muse is fickle, and other muses can hop in and take over. As I said last month herding plot bunnies is hard; those hind legs really pack a oomp when they hit, and they can be vicious and tenacious. The quiet ones get overwhelmed if I don’t keep at it. Sometimes even if I do.

Started on the book club book for this month. I just can’t seem to get into it though. I’ll get it read & reviewed but it ain’t gonna be easy. It might just be because I’ve been reading cozy mysteries and this definitely ain’t. It’s a suspense. Which I normally like. However I just can’t relate to this book. I don’t know.

The ferals have been lying in the shade all passed out this last week since the heat index has been around 105* on the ‘cool’ days and the humidity has been around 85%. There’s plenty of water. Even the kittens have been napping. Our weather lady said it will be cooler this coming week and we may even have some rain. We’ll all have some relief. Still haven’t named any of the kittens. Only 7 of them show up consistently.

Breaktime is over and I have to go outside and check the water pans before I do anything else. AS I said there’ plenty of water but I like to keep them full as possible. Stay tuned for the next installment.
