I don't know what I did to it, but my left ankle feels like I turned it in my sleep. It hurts like crazy. I did five minutes on my treadmill and that helped, but it is still stiff. Other some some shopping and a trip out to the lake for the dogs, today will be a writing day. I've not had many of... Sign in to see full entry.

It looks like the temps will hit ~40. The snow has shrunk down to about five inches in my back yard. It's possible that most of it will be gone by the end of the next two days, making everything a mud bath. My doctor gave me a new medication because my blood pressure read 146/64. The stuff makes me... Sign in to see full entry.

So Much For Those in My 'RL'
I've sat myself down, explained that what happened wasn't my fault, and then lectured myself about getting back to work. I've decided on the short story I'm going to do (read finish), worked it all out in my head, and promised myself to make considerable advancement in it tomorrow. So there. I don't...

Good morning. It's been raining on and off all night, making the roads a slushy mess. Chances are good that I won't be walking the animals this morning in this mire. We still have lots of snow, but it is currently a thick, wet soup. I'm not yet sure of what I'm doing today. My original plans went... Sign in to see full entry.

We (my friend Kagan and I) made a trip to the Lake Superior shore yesterday. It was cold and windy, but it was beautiful. I wanted to take some photos, but as I went to take a shot, nothing happened. Some idiot (me) had left the batteries at home. Nonetheless, it was great way to spend the day.... Sign in to see full entry.

Brrr! It got down to -1 last night, but is on its way to 30 again. I'm ready for spring right now. I've got a foot of snow, a steady 15 to 20 mph wind out of the north, and it's only mid November. I went down to the local village 'buck pole' and saw that the deer harvest has been exceptionally good.... Sign in to see full entry.

I slept like a log all night. Apparently so much like a log, my back is stiff. Ten minutes on my treadmill and a hot shower have taken care of that issue. It's going to be fairly decent out today, but back down to 7 tonight. Joy. The first 90 minutes of the trip down was a slushy, sloppy mess.... Sign in to see full entry.

For the record, I made it home. Talk about your roller-coaster rides! More tomorrow. Sign in to see full entry.
I'm going to be 'on the road' most of the day. I have to run down state to pick up my friend, Kagan. It's roughly a 650 mile round trip. I intend to be out the door about 9AM and back about 6PM. For the first time in over a week, there are no snow showers on the radar. Kagan is good with my dogs,... Sign in to see full entry.

Snow! Snow for sale! Get it by the box, the truckload, or the shovelful! We got 10" of new snow last night. We didn't need it. Bad thing being, it's still snowing and they just issued a "Winter Storm Warning." Life goes on. I had to stop for a moment to move my car so my snow plowplow guy could... Sign in to see full entry.
