Hoping for much-needed rain this evening after 8 days of extra hot weather. Yard and gardens don’t look anything like this … yet.
I have been struggling to cope since the El Paso massacre. Knowing that that white supremacist deliberately drove approximately 10 hours “to shoot as many Mexicans as possible” has made it even more horrifying. Like so many Texans, but especially those living in diverse urban areas like Houston, I have close relatives, friends, neighbors, and co-workers who would’ve been targeted by that hater. And I am afraid for them.
As usual, this is an open thread. Distractions welcome.
