I am beginning to grow a little weary of waking up to find the temp is in double digits below zero. I checked and found that in the past fifteen days, we have been at least five below or lower thirteen of those days. The other two days were merely zero or so. It's -17 here this morning. I'm warm,... Sign in to see full entry.

Please Listen To This?

Alright. In case you missed it, I have hired a 'voice talent' to read my book about my wife, "I Remember Judy - A Love Story." It's odd how I came to get this guy, but long story short, I was looking for someone to narrate my other book, "The Brick," a story of handling grief, loneliness, suicide,...

Stay Away... Drunk Money At Work

I seemed to be getting side tracked by too many calls lately at the very times I normally write, post here, and do my evening writing session. I think I am going to go back to shutting my cell off when I am working. I had someone give me flack over this once, but I told them - "EMAIL me. My email... Sign in to see full entry.

What The World (DOESN'T) Need Now

I just got this email from Emergency Email as a weather warning. I don't recall wishing we could get some more snow.... hmmmm. Winter Storm Warning issued January 29 at 12:49PM EST until January 31 at 7:00AM EST by NWS Marquette...WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 7 PM THIS EVENING TO 7 AM...

I normally like to post here about 10 - 10:30 AM every morning, but I still have people coming over to shower and get water. I didn't take any money, but I did sell some books! LOL It is supposed to be almost +8 today, a big change for yesterday where the high was -7. You take your joy where you can... Sign in to see full entry.

It's still -8 outside, but it may warm up to 10 above tomorrow. I had put out a notice on the local village chat board that if anyone needed some water, a shower, or to use my washing machine for a load of laundry, two if no one was waiting, they could wander over. Nine people showed up for showers,... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. If you can still feel your toes, let's do some stretches and touch 'em! It's -16 right now ( currently 9:09 AM EST ) and heading to a high of -3. Even my biggest dog isn't whining to go outside after his first foray out this morning.. Oh! I forgot to mention - we also got ten more... Sign in to see full entry.

White Out! (Tip of the Hat to the 1963 song "Wipe Out!")

While we haven't (yet) gotten all of the snow that they warned me about about 73 times yesterday, conditions are bad here. The route I had to take to get to Marquette a week back is currently closed due to whiteout conditions. (Continued below) I live about an hour east of Munising, but that town is...

Whew. I did three columns for two different news websites and now I have to brave the temps to wander down to the Post Office to see if my replacement Capitol One card has arrived yet. I was told it was going to be here last Tuesday, but it hasn't yet arrived. I'm not in need yet, but I'm working on... Sign in to see full entry.

It is currently -14 outside right now, but it was -18 earlier. Yippie! I'm getting alerts on my Weather Channel app telling me that starting about 5PM EST, we will be getting another 'heavy' snow storm and be at least -22. Good grief Jeanine! The new book is performing quite well for its first... Sign in to see full entry.
