The more I think about it, the more I think I need to make a run to Florida. It would be a multiple use situation run, and I need to get away from here for a few days and see some people down there. A 'relatively warm' day here today. It's just made it to 20 degrees on its way to a alleged high of... Sign in to see full entry.

I took a rare completely non-writing day yesterday. I did my posts here, shut everything down, walked out and locked my office door. I can't tell you how many times I found myself trying to open the door in here, but my 'thinking self' had place the key on the far side of the upstairs closet. Did... Sign in to see full entry.

My nephew is continuing to improve, but his sniveling about small situations is driving me crazy. Anyone who has had any kind of surgery will tell you that it can be uncomfortable. Listening to Jim, you'd think he was in in excruciating pain, and near death. Oddly enough, they are telling him that... Sign in to see full entry.

A Must Read and View
I rarely will ask this, but this is a must view video. It's about a man who lost his wife at age 38, leaving him with seven kids. Sign in to see full entry.
LOL... and last night was the perfect example of why I set my home up the way I did. It was seven below last night with a steady 20 mph wind... and the power went out. I never knew it until I got up this morning and discovered that I didn't have power. Judging by the stopped clock, it was out from... Sign in to see full entry.

Just To Show You Something
I've been friends with Skip Press, a fairly 'famous' author out of Burbank for about ten years now. I can't remember the exact story, but Skip wrote a forward for me on one of my Christmas stories. He has been tossing a story idea around now for several months, including being desperate enough to... Sign in to see full entry.
I Forgot To Add Something
As I was responding to a comment, I realized that I forgot to update everyone about my nephew. It was this phrase that reminded me: 'Happiness is a state of mind and attitude.' Jim is doing alright after a five hour surgery, but his attitude sucks. I spoke with him for about 30 minutes last night,... Sign in to see full entry.
Tennessee Ernie Ford did a song by the title of " Sixteen Tons, " and I think that's about how much snow is on my car right now. The funny thing is that the radars don't even show it snowing in this area, but yet, I look out the window and the flakes are hurtling to earth at an incredible rate.... Sign in to see full entry.

I slept better last night. I'm not saying that I slept well, because I didn't, but at least I got about five or six uninterrupted sleep. I think whatever is rattling around in my noodle is finally working itself out. We have another 'Severe Weather Alert' out for later this afternoon and all day... Sign in to see full entry.

This is the note they sent to me about my nephew He just came out of surgery, we can't see him until about 6:30. He will be sleeping for probably a good 6 hours and then they will see if they think he's ready to wake up. Sign in to see full entry.
