As I hoped and suspected might happen, the dreadful cold spell that was scheduled to arrive here today is going to be late. I've been watching the storm that was going to deliver the "monumental snow storm" (as the media was calling it) has slowed and lessened. It will be cooler here, but not nearly...

What a day! We weren't going to work outside today, but it became warm enough to give it a try, and "Howdy, Bob!" we got a lot of stuff done. The Great Depression house that had been hidden in the tangly brush is almost gone now. We had intended to clean it up and restore it, but the last brush with... Sign in to see full entry.
A Brief Reminder
I hate to complain about the weather that is coming our way when I take a look at what is going to happen to all points north of us are going to experience. I read an article that used the headline, "Catastrophic Winter Storm About To Sweep The Nation." I used to write headlines, and would... Sign in to see full entry.

If you want the download file for the PWA app on your computer, let me know. I can upload it to Dropbox and give you access to it. FYI... I know Annie has PWA subscription (ProWritingAid) and we were talking about this the other day on the phone. If any of you have a subscription, give me a holler.... Sign in to see full entry.
I had another routine blood draw this morning that needed to be done after "fasting" for twelve hours, so we went down to the hospital at six this morning and found a bit of frost on the windshield of the car. Bbbbbbbbbbrrrrrrrrrrrrr! It didn't take long to get the blood taken and we were out the... Sign in to see full entry.

We are about to enter our little "ice Age" for the next four to five days. While we might hit the 60s during the day, we will be in the low 30s and one or two nights will be down to the upper 20s. Yippie! LOL, I've lived in the UP long enough to have wandered around when it was -25 below without too... Sign in to see full entry.

Another day and a lot of things were accomplished. I'm very happy with what we did today. I got a call from the hospital at about 5:30 this evening, and I got my testing results. Everything was WNL (Within Normal Limits) with the exception of my potassium levels, which were low. I take 20 Meq... Sign in to see full entry.
We have one more day of nice weather (today) and then the cold front is coming from the north to take over our weather for a week. Rain is expected all day tomorrow, so we will switch to working inside instead of out. I have to run down for some lab tests (just standard stuff) this morning, but I'll... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm a little slow today, so bear with me. My normal pattern for the day is to be up by 8 AM and do some writing before I start to work outside. I then come in when it gets dark, grab something to eat, take a shower, and then settle down to write for an hour or two. I have one program I watch every... Sign in to see full entry.

I have to make a quick trip to Live Oak this morning to pick up a special tool e need and check on the availability of a few other things we will need very soon. I've been reading your comments on my "Hate" story, and things change in tone as of this post today. So far, most of this has been about... Sign in to see full entry.
