It’s 9:00 PM, do you know where your kindle is?
It’s right here waiting for one of our crazy little red squirrels to knock it off the back moomindeck railing.
My grandfather purportedly “trained” those little red squirrels to eat out of his hand. Peanuts I think? Not sure. Radical Betty (his daughter and my aunt) also had a friendly relationship with them but I’m not sure if she fed them. Me? I (sorta) enjoy when they chase each other at high speed across the moomindeck but I don’t try to feed them. Sometimes I thump the deck to scare them off. Too much childhood scarification about rabies maybe? I don’t know that red squirrels are particularly rabies carriers but I guess any aminal can be. Including human beings. Read “Their Eyes Were Watching God”.
I had a nice sloooowww day today. I slept with the GG in the Lyme Lounge and it was windy and raining when I woke up but it was not cold so I just slodged along in my sleeping bag until oh I dunno 7:30 or so. That’s about the upper limit for me to get up. And I love sleeping in my sleeping bag BTW, and it’s especially nice since I washed it at the laundromat yesterday morning. Plus the GG scoured the Lyme Lounge inside and out yesterday. The weather was up and down today. Cold and warm. Variable winds. Sun and clouds.
And I am done done done for tonight, not that I had anything much to say anyway. Love y’all, KW.

I’m thinking of getting a Kindle since reading on my phone can be tough sometimes. (smallish screen) What would you recommend?
