Not a lot to say today... something very unusual for me. I'll drop by in a while and see if I can get something down. V Sign in to see full entry.

Good Sunday morning. We had another frosty (for Florida) night, with the lowest temperature I saw on my cell while letting the dogs out coming in at 41. This has been the most unusual Florida spring I have seen in 14 years of living in the state. Last night was a quiet one. The neighborhood was... Sign in to see full entry.

Excuse any typos you might find! It got cold here last night! I didn't leave the heater in my office running; it is COLD in here! I checked my cell for the temperature around four this morning while I was on a puppy break, and it was 42! It's almost the middle of April, and while 42 might be alright...

Now For Something Completely Different - W/ a Nod to Monty Python
It's (finally)Friday, and we are planning a quiet weekend. My brother and his wife will be leaving to go back to Michigan sometime between now and Tuesday morning. Most of their stuff has been packed, and all they are waiting for is a clear weather path home. Jerry had a double lung transplant in... Sign in to see full entry.

I Have Returned - $75 Poorer, But Still Here... and now... more to my story
I was looking through the news links on a website I frequent when I saw a link to a story about Jimmy Hoffa. They say that Jimmy Hoffa was buried in New Jersey. Maybe. Based on some 'information' I got from some people who may or may not have been there when he was 'offed,' I wrote a very short... Sign in to see full entry.
This is going to be a quick stop. I forgot I had a doctor's appointment until they called me to see if I could come in an hour later than scheduled. Well, seeing I had forgotten they had scheduled me while I was on the road, I neglected to write it down. So, I'm getting ready, and I wanted to sneak... Sign in to see full entry.

About All Those Early Morning Calls...
Hmmm. I sense a disturbing pattern developing in my life. Apparently, it has gotten out that people can call me between 8 a.m. and 9:30, my forever-ago no-call time. Since 8:15, I've gotten six calls—all about as important as washing your hands after washing the dishes. I said something to the last... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. The puppies were playful this morning, just as the dark crept back into its hole for another day. They decided the best place to play was between the wife and me. These things were born on January 3rd, and it is already getting difficult to tell puppies from mom and dad. They don't... Sign in to see full entry.

We had unexpected visitors last night that stayed far too late (11:30!) Besides that, while our home is 'livable,' it is not yet what we want it to be. Yes, we've been here closing in on three and a half years, but there was a lot to fix. Add in that we have several big dogs that want to be friendly... Sign in to see full entry.

While there are many reasons I love our dogs, one of the less-than-wonderful things is that when three puppies and four big dogs decide they need to go outside, there is no ignoring them. This morning, the call of nature occurred at 6:05. Verwayne (ME!) didn't appreciate being pulled out of bed to... Sign in to see full entry.
