It’s Saturday. Cool air today is welcome.
The noise at the school (starting at 6:45) is not.
Woke to beeping trucks, that piercing tone made all the more annoying because studies have shown the sound doesn’t actually save lives.
Later, I watched in disbelief as they used a mini-bulldozer to lift and carry rubber mats that could easily have been carried by one of the two men waiting for its delivery under the swing set.
Blueberry scones in the oven. I will join the Saturday Newton Center protest later.
And so it goes.

I wonder if we are having one here in Brookline. I will have to check.
And yes, the cooler weather is so welcome. I thought I would die yesterday in the humidity.
The beeping is never ending. Now if I don’t hear it I wonder what is wrong. The other day I didn’t hear any workmen across the street and thought maybe ICE came and took them after lunch. Turns out they just ran out of bricks and went home for the rest of the day.
