coffee_n_cocoaWe're getting brushed by the remnants of Tropical Storm Hermine, although most of it's well south of us. We've had some light drizzle, and we'll probably get some light rain between now and the end of the day, but luckily we'll escape the flash flooding.
Our neighbors have taken in their grandkids for awhile; I believe their son is job-hunting in North Carolina or some such and will take the kids back once settled. I haven't heard the reason directly. Anyway, there's an 11-year-old girl who's thrilled because her classmate happens to live across the street, a 6-year-old boy who'd made friends with the boys who live one street over, and a girl who is the same age as Bean. Bean, of course, is thrilled to finally have a playmate in the neighborhood, and has spent every evening this past week next door playing with C. Two nights ago it was drawing in the street with colored chalk, and last night they were blowing bubbles. They also have two cats Bean loves petting, and the older girl also has a puppy. So there are kids! And animals! Bean is in heaven.
Fandom-wise,taraxacumoff asked if she could translate my Neville/Katie ficlet into French. She sent me the link, and you can see the French translation of "Libraries Versus Greenhouses" here: Bibliothèques Contre Serres.
I'm rather excited. I've never had anything I've written translated into another language before (that I know of) until now!
