Brrrr. While the temperature is "only 43," the humidity in the air gives it a "feels like" more like 25. Even Buster, our big 140# dog with a heavy coat isn't interested in going out for any longer than necessary. It is supposed to be about 78 this afternoon, and only 45 overnight, a pleasant change...

I walked outside about eight hours ago, and I just came back in. We got a lot done, but it just exposes more stuff to do over the weekend. I picked up a set of "decent" kitchen cabinets and a nice sink for a little bit of nothing, and that will help begin to allow us to get the kitchen a bit more... Sign in to see full entry.
Another cold night, with temps hitting 33 at six this morning. We were quite comfortable, but when I took the dogs out for their morning walk, I realized I needed my heavier jacket and gloves. It may have been my eyes frozen over, but it looked like the windshield on the Chevy was frosted as well.... Sign in to see full entry.

Just in so you know, the entire first post below was done by *voice-to-text.* I was waiting for the BoA (Bank of America) agent to make the necessary changes to my account to stop a pending fraudulent charge on my credit card. I've been using the app for text messages because of my eye-sight issues,... Sign in to see full entry.
Good morning. I was beginning to do my daily routine here on blog it and all of a sudden I get an email from Bank of America telling me that Pitney Bowes had charged my credit card $193.17. I have never done any business with Pitney Bowes, so I spent the next 45 minutes talking with Bank of America... Sign in to see full entry.

The wife and I went out to lunch with my brother, Jerry, and his girlfriend, Sue. She is no one I want to hang around with, but fortunately, she stays in their trailer and rarely comes out. She has the IQ of a dead squirrel and I've heard jets taking off that weren't as incessantly loud as she is...... Sign in to see full entry.
I'm going to listen to a webinar from Audika about "How To Sell AudioBook Services To Hungry Clients." It starts soon, but I can listen as I type. It's the only way I can get anything done! Well, I got a call and now the webinar has started. It is a lovely 39 degrees this morning... and I'm COLD!... Sign in to see full entry.

I think we got our permanent heating system installed in our bedroom installed just in time. It got down to 41 here last night but our bedroom was a pleasant 68. We brought down all of our Upper Peninsula blankets and quilts, so we were plenty warm. We had all three dogs around the bed, so everyone... Sign in to see full entry.

Two Feet of Snow in da Yoop Coming
It's a nice day here already at 65, closing in on 70. Back "home" in the Yoop, my old hometown of Newberry has received over 11" of snow, with another 10" to 16" coming today. This was the weather forecast yesterday morning. This is this morning on the south end of Newberry. The building you see is... Sign in to see full entry.

We had a nice night last night. It was relatively warm until a bit after midnight, and we set up a television on the back porch and watched OnPatrol Live under a sky of millions of stars and the beginning of a waning moon. The mosquitos are about gone... or at least thinned out... so it was a fun... Sign in to see full entry.
