Damn! It was dark this morning.
Our power was out from 7:30 until 1:15. A car slid on wet leaves and struck a power-line pole.
It's a good thing our coffee was finished brewing.
I spent this morning reading a book written by Steven and Owen King ... Sleeping Beauties
How was your Sunday morning?

NEW YORK, NEW YORK Jeffrey Epstein, the Manhattan financier awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, committed suicide in his cell at the MCC Manhattan overnight, ABC News and The New York Post is reporting.
News of Epstein's death comes just over two weeks after it was reported that he was found injured in his jail cell in a possible suicide attempt.
Epstein had been denied bail by a federal judge, ensuring that he would stay in jail. His lawyers lawyers requested that the court let the financier stay under supervision in his sprawling Upper East Side mansion, where federal prosecutors allege that he sexually abused several teenage girls.

NEW YORK The Empire State has become the first in the nation to make declawing cats illegal.
Governor Andrew Cuomo signed it into law Monday, threatening anybody who performs the procedure unless its medically necessary with a fine of $1,000.
"Declawing is a cruel and painful procedure that can create physical and behavioral problems for helpless animals, and today it stops," Cuomo said.
"By banning this archaic practice, we will ensure that animals are no longer subjected to these inhumane and unnecessary procedures."

Why do ticks love me?
We pulled one black tick and a smaller reddish tick off me before they dug into my skin.
