My Poem - For CCT

C C T had posted a poem that I loved and commented so on her page. She thought I didn't like powtry, but I assured her that I love poetry, I just am not good at writing it, and thus avoid using it. However, in the ultimate irony, I still have the original Word files of a story (written on Office... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm An Idiot

Polar bears might enjoy a stroll around the block today, but even my dogs were glad to get home after a walk around the block this morning. A blood stopping 12 below made everyone pick up their walking game. Yes, I know I'm crazy. When I get done here, it's time to go do some shopping. Buster, my... Sign in to see full entry.

I see the place is very quiet today. Maybe too much New Year's Eve reveling. I'm doing better than earlier and maybe, just maybe, tomorrow will be back to almost normal or as normal as I can get. It is nasty cold here. We hit a high of one above zero F today and are already headed to about 15 below.... Sign in to see full entry.

It got down to 17 below here last night, but thanks to all the work we did last summer, the house stayed a steady 74 and everyone was comfortable. The car wasn't thrilled about starting this morning, but it only cranked over three, maybe four times and fired up. Dad always told me that if you keep... Sign in to see full entry.

I must have been more tired than I realized. I sat down in my recliner with the idea of catching 30 minutes of rest. Five hours later, the dogs are begging to go outside. I just made my daily post over in my new book, "The Struggle Within." Sorry about that! Sign in to see full entry.

Beeps and Booms All Night Long

An off night of sleep is going to cause me to be slow out of the gates this morning. Between some odd dreams and all the commotion going on next door in the village snow plow garage where they were moving in and around all night long, their 'beep, beep, beep, beep' sirens on as they backed up road...

The problem is when you are writing something in retrospective, it needs a lot of courage not to change, or you will forget a certain reality, and you will just take in consideration your view today. -Boutros Boutros-Ghali Sign in to see full entry.

The second day of 2018 presents as cold and overcast, but I see that by Thursday and Friday, our high temp of the day isn't scheduled to find its way above zero. I keep my car outside, so I'll have to make sure I start it for five minutes or so every four to five hours. It has a new battery in it,... Sign in to see full entry.

Snow, Moose, and Florida (Kind of Like 'Lions & Tigers & Bears! Oh My!')

It is snowing pretty hard here today, adding to the foot or more that we already have on the ground. It is 'warm' at about 12 degrees above, but according to the forecast I've seen, we have a couple days this week that won't even reach zero. Yippie! LOL The dogs love the snow and if it makes them...
