Old School

Right before posting this photo, I was putting a stamp on an envelope that enclosed my hand-written thank you card. I’m stubbornly old school about this, despite knowing it’s a dying mode of communication. And then I spoke to my 14-year old neighbor across the hall who had just done the same for all the friends attending her birthday party.

Cool Down

I have an overhead fan in my bedroom, and on hot nights, I try to position me and my dog at the best angle to feel the breeze. But apparently, fans don’t work that well to cool off dogs, which is good to know. What are your best “beat the heat” strategies?
