It was a decent day today. We had planned on doing a lot of work in the garage, but decided to say to heck with it and go to the Superior shore in the middle of the day. The waters were rough, but that storm stayed just offshore, making our all that much better. Tomorrow is going to be another... Sign in to see full entry.

The Year of Living Dangerously
It's a bright sunny day which belies the fact that it is only 60 degrees out there. Advance radar shows that we will have heavy rain by 5 PM, which means we need to get up and moving to get everything done this morning that we can get done. I need to mow the yards again. You'd think that they would... Sign in to see full entry.

A very busy day, but a truly wonderful day, for I am blessed. We accomplished much today. My wife was right there, working her cute lil' hiney off to help prepare for the winter that seems to be approaching faster than normal this year. She kept the work area organized as we nailed, screwed, and cut... Sign in to see full entry.
I had a good night of sleep last night, not awakening until almost 9:30,a very late time for me. It's about 60 right now, headed to a whopping 65 for the day but at least it is sunny with very little wind. Most people associate August as one of the hottest months of the year, second only to July.... Sign in to see full entry.

I wasn't sure how Lisa would do here, but it looks as if she is finding a niche here. Thank you for your kindnesses. I know that I'll get over the shine of my new dime in time, but she still fascinates and makes me weak-kneed just looking at her. She's up taking her shower before bedtime, leaving me...

I love it. I see that Lisa is starting to get more traffic than I am. Good for her. I'll tell Lisa that her fan base is asking her questions and ask her to respond. My wife is a highly intelligent woman with a good heart. We've both been through a lot in our lives on different levels, but it our... Sign in to see full entry.
I'm hoping for a lazy day today. We've already hit our expected high of 62 for the day. It rained relatively hard all night last night. I hear Lisa upstairs getting ready for our morning walk, so this will be short for right now. I'm feeling better, still sluggish, but at least I'm moving vs what I... Sign in to see full entry.

After a long talk with my wife, I have decided to hang around at least through the end of 2020. This 'agreement' that we reached is predicated on the fact that I am going to limit myself to certain hours in my office until the weather up here changes. After that, Lisa is willing to concede me... Sign in to see full entry.
I slept for nine more hours. I think that bug is gone. I barely remember anything for most of the last 24 hours other than feeling that I was in a fog and the tender whisperings of my wife. Somewhere, I remember her listening to my lungs for signs of pneumonia, taking my temp (normal), and giving me... Sign in to see full entry.

I woke up about 11PM tonight, feeling much better. I'm not sure what I had, but I'm glad that it is gone. I spent some time talking with my wife, and we had some thoughtful words. We stood in the backyard with the dogs, watching the sky and listening to the owls talk back and forth. As we came in,... Sign in to see full entry.
