caturday august 5 2023

Thirty years ago this beautiful boy was literally born into my hands. My Sunny. That was supposed to be his “milk name” until I came up with something more exotic to pair with his mother Lua, so that I would have the moon and the sun. But it turned out he not only had a happy sunny disposition, he was also a bit of a doof and not even remotely exotic or mysterious, bless him. Sixteen years later he died in my arms and I still miss him. But we were both lucky to have each other as long as we did.

hepa filter

In the better-late-than-never department (and thanks to a push from Amazon Prime Day – it was 20% off!) I decided it was time to splash out on an air purifier (with hepa filter) for Casa Azahar. It occurred to me that the times Covid has been in the house (me once, Peter twice) it was during either spring of autumn, so there was no problem with leaving the balcony doors open for ventilation. But if it happened during summer or winter we would be stuck with closed windows. And my bedroom window opens into the patio, so it is always closed.

In any case, it’s probably a good idea to have one of these going and this one is a good size for the living room / office space.  In case you’re interested here it is… Levoit Air Purifier.
