I'm glad they were watching the weather reports closely! Most of my friends and neighbors dislike this holiday because their pets are traumatized by the explosions. But my cat seems oblivious and usually sleeps through it (I do too, on occasion).
I decided to take the day off from social engagements and alternate reading with yard work. It's going well. I was able to clear away lots of clover and other weeds growing between the cracks in my flagstone patio and this evening I'm going to plant some thyme and other low growing groundcovers there. I also moved all the excess furniture stored under my deck to the back lawn where I can hose it down, clean it, and restore the rattan to life. Then, I've swept up the leaves and debris hidden there and am reimagining that space. In between bouts of work I'm reading the new Tommy Orange novel Wandering Star.
I had my usual breakfast, a salad for lunch, and dinner will be a burrito and ice cream.
