Whew. I laid down to 'just rest my eyes.' Four hours ago. I had a massive headache that I attribute to the sudden atmospheric pressure drop that happened here earlier. I'm almost ready to start the actual writing of my attempt at a 'young millennial romance in the season of the virus' story. This is... Sign in to see full entry.

We've had a very sudden shift in temps.Yesterday at this time, it was 75. Right now, it is 59 with a steady wind of 15-20 mph. I neglected to turn the temp sensor up last night which resulted to Lisa becoming super-glued to me for my body heat. I'm 'thick' and she's quite 'petite.' I generate a lot...

Another day of getting a lot of things done. We've cleaned out about 70% of the garage so that when we begin to do the structural changes in there, it should just fly along. Lisa has swept up a lot of mud, dog hair (gobs of it out there after accumulating for four years) and lots of 'litter.' We can... Sign in to see full entry.
Lisa, Listen To Me
Kabu told me that I needed to give Lisa a chance to post here. After we've talked about things we don't talk about, let me be Ed McMahon and announce her... " 'Here'sssssssssssss Lisa!' Cue the Carson band and I'm leaving the room so she can write her piece without me standing here. Here's her theme... Sign in to see full entry.
Whew, busy morning already. Someone had given us about $125 worth of cans and bottles that they didn't want to return to the store (he said he felt like a 'welfare bum,' leaving me to wonder what he thought we were... hmmm?) so we took them all back. We now have $127.80 we didn't have when we got... Sign in to see full entry.

We've had a good night. I promised I'd save you the gushy stuff, but it was a good night. I'm happier than I've been in three years now. Lisa tells me that she hasn't felt this secure in well over ten years. She's comfortable with living here and with being with me. That should tell you everything... Sign in to see full entry.
We didn't get everything done in the garage today as I had hoped. Lisa found an old bed frame and matching headboards I had stashed out there, and it was all down hill after that. Long story short, we now have that bed set up in a secondary guest room. It was 83 degrees, hot for this part of the... Sign in to see full entry.
Good morning. It's heavily overcast here this morning, but it is supposed to clear up and be nice today. The local weather predictor on the radio says it should hit 78 or so. After we walk the dogs, Lisa and I will be working on finishing a project in the garage. A neighbor a block over tore all of... Sign in to see full entry.

We Are Hiked Out Tonight
I think that we hiked just shy of ten miles today in some odd terrain. I also think that we wore ourselves out. Lisa just brought me two grilled sandwiches that will serve as 'dinner.' I'm good with that. I've cooked for myself for so long, it's nice just to be able to share cooking duties. Lisa is... Sign in to see full entry.
We Are Back
We had a nice day wandering about. Surprisingly, it reached 82 today, something that has not been normal the last few weeks. Lisa learned that sandals are not appropriate footwear for some of the paths that we take, but I had an extra pair of shoes I had bought for someone else that never used them,...
