I Am Storm Ready

Since I made the post about the heavy snow and such, they still aren't sure of its probable path, but I've taken steps to ensure that the dogs and I are safe, no matter what happens. I've gone though and made sure that my flashlights are properly placed, that my cell phones are charged and that my... Sign in to see full entry.

Joy. We are going to have a winter storm warning starting soon. It may hit us or sweep just to the north of us. I am set either way. I have heat and hot water so I'm good. Sign in to see full entry.

I'm still tired, but I feel better. I had an on and off night of sleep with Buster wanting in and out all night. As soon as I can get an extra set of hands here, I am going to bring the door to the basement forward into the room about three feet so I can add a 'doggie door' to the left of it. Then...

This Is About Writing, But Who's Keeping Track?

I've decided not to post the next entry of "The House at 407" yet tonight. I'm not feeling 'bad,' but I'm a long way from feeling 'good.' I'm still into the 'formative' stages of this story, and I don't want to have to go back and lay in a clue that should have been there the first time around. I've... Sign in to see full entry.

We went from being 43 degrees early yesterday to being 7 this morning. I have to make a run over to the Soo (Sault Ste. Marie) to get groceries and some medication. Hopefully the main highway going that way isn't too slippery. After I get back, I think I am going to a grand total of nothing for a... Sign in to see full entry.

It's Warm, It's Cold, It's The Upper Peninsula of Michigan!

It's 40 degrees here, but my cell phone is blowing up with severe weather warnings for a huge cold front moving in about 3PM today. Tomorrow has a projected high of about 12. Yippie! I have a few outside of the house things I need to do today, so I'll get those done and be back inside before the... Sign in to see full entry.

I just added another 750 to the opening salvo of "The House at 407." If you read it earlier, take another look to see where the story has gone now. This story has a lot of information to lay down in a quick hurry, and the goal is to do it in such a way that it doesn't become pedantic. I have roughly... Sign in to see full entry.

It's snowing heavily on and off today and should turn to rain soon. The temp is about 30, but we have a 25 mph wind, making it absolutely lovely outside. /sarcasm The wind is howling and the main floor has a cold draft that seems to come from everywhere, even through the door itself. The basement on... Sign in to see full entry.

How I Spent My Christmas Day

After I posted my material here per my morning wont, I decided that I couldn't spend my Christmas here, so I loaded up the dogs and we made the 35 minute trip up to the upper Tahquamenon Falls. There were a lot more people there than I had anticipated, but the place is huge, and 'we' went for a walk... Sign in to see full entry.

Christmas Morning Musings

I stood outside last night until about 2 AM, watching the sky here in the UP. The night was wonderfully clear with a huge full moon that rose in the east and made its way to the southern sky. The stars were not to be outdone by the moon, and they punctuated the darkness as crisp stabs of light. It... Sign in to see full entry.
