Just getting light outside and we should have another day of clouds and rain. I'm not complaining--my gardens look very lush.

It started out sunny but the clouds are moving in. We may get more rain but not, hopefully, nearly as much as areas in New England have received.
The news announced that Mitt Romney isn't going to run for reelection when his current term ends. He cited his age and the current deadlocked politics. He is 76. Note: Biden is 78 and The Former Guy is 77. But no one has any idea of who should replace them. No one is really offering any proposals or policies. No arguments other than each loudly proclaiming "I'm not THAT guy." Aurelien has a nice (though long) article on the state of politics in the West today. He continues the series of critiques of the basic incompetence at all levels of government, business and all institutions. I'd like to say he's wrong but everything he writes reflects what I have seen over the last 30 years.

We have our regular shopping to do later. But otherwise nothing else planned.
The first sentence in this EuroNews article is stunning: There have been deadly storms in almost as many days in September so far, as climate scientists warn that “nowhere is immune”
And then there is this article from the same source. I wonder how our disaster relief funds and organizations are doing given the 23 billion dollar+ weather events this year--a record.
