I stuck with MSNBC all evening, and the cats and I had a marvelous time. I really enjoyed the speakers, especially Steve Kerr, Shawn Fain, Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, Jasmine Crockett, and Hillary Clinton.
Well, my odometer turned, I see. I never pay attention to these things.
In 2017 a husband-and-wife trucking couple were at a truck stop in Laredo, Texas, when they came across a cat begging truckers for food. He was too scared to let anyone near him, but the husband offered him a piece of chicken and was able to grab him before he could run off. They fed him and, realising they couldn’t leave him there, took him on board, not sure what to do with him as they’d never owned a cat before. They wanted to do their best to help him gain weight, and then to find him a new home – but in the process fell in love with him! Grayson, as he was named, has been trucking for some seven years now, and has been to every state in the US except Alaska and Hawaii.The wife said, "He’s my world, and I’m so glad we were able to help him; he’s been at my side along the road and on all our journeys together."

I don't know the distinction between their "burritos" and their "soft tacos," but there must be one because they list them separately. Either way, they're all really good...different than Taco Bell or Del Taco (of course), but really pretty good. Sounds tasty!

Mom made it through the night. She's a little more responsive, using an arm to answer yes/no questions. She recognizes people. And she isn't in pain.
Mom had a good night, just getting up to use the necessary
Mom is still complaining about headaches, unsurprisingly.

Then I went to Macy's - prior to going in, I got news of one modern major miracle, so that was great. Two or three more would be very much appreciated.
