A late turn

...of the summer wheel. Somehow, I missed Solstice.

I usually don't pull two cards for the Choice position. Up to now, it's been an "either or not" situation. This morning, I wanted to expand on the notion. "Why choose?" is a nice option - wiggle room for a storyteller. 

Pretty clear that this one is for me. 

I'm packing to spend a week with Charlie and plan on bringing stuff with me this time. Stuff to keep me OFF THE PHONE. 

Stitching, thread to prep, cloth, my Tarot, a good book or two, and the big laptop where the writing happens. 

The last week I was there, I went nearly empty-handed and found that I needed my own tools. Cartoons and Lego don't go all that far for me anymore.

Bailey and Salem are working through missing Camilla. A neighbor kitty, Lily, has moved away with her master. I offered to take her if a post-divorce situation left her homeless. Thankfully for her, her human is steadfast in his devotion.

I will also be over there with a shovel, liberating some irises and cannas.

I haven't discussed it with anyone out loud, but I would not be averse to the Cat Universe Distribution system blessing us with a full house once I've finished my summer travels. A super catio must be a part of this. 

Once, there were four.

 

And monkeying around with machine-made, store-bought stuff is entertaining. Feels a bit like graffiti.
