. . . And we were just mules in horse harness and we didn't fool anybody.

Hello, chickens.
Sorry so quiet.
Went out of town for weekend, then was up all night last night. I thought food poisoning, Mom says stomach virus is going round.
Will have an entry, oh yes, QUITE an entry for you tomorrow.
The topic riles me up so much (although, for you it might be totally boring) . . . it will take a bit of effort, when I feel like wrapping myself up in the fervor/sitting up for more than 20 minutes.
For now: crackers.

There was something so beautiful in the way the sunlight filtered through the trees today on our walk to the mail. It was heavenly beams. Ethereal glow. My spirit was lifted as I was summoned towards the light.

Monday Monday . . . I’m getting something accomplished today. I painted the first layer of trim around the bathroom door. Knobby nudged me that I really needed to get that room presentable, and I’m glad he did. I’ve just been twiddling my thumbs and putting it off. I’ll go down after I finish this [...]

Let’s see. Our weekend: Saturday: Woke up around 10, checked phone and ipad for game updates, decided to go back to sleep. Woke back up around noon, when Knobby by then had gotten up and showered and whatnot, and leapt out of bed when I heard the car door slam of some quick visitors. Threw [...]

Knobby is in crunch mode, deadline time, end zone, whatever you choose to call it, at work right now. I always want to say this as “WE” are in crunch mode when I explain to someone what’s going on. When, obviously, “WE” are not the ones working, no, it is “HE” who is in crunch [...]

Watching our gate cam is the closest chance we have of winning the lottery. And by winning the lottery, I mean the random chance we have of catching all the various wildlife that lumbers through. There are frequently the turkeys . . . sometimes the possums . . . once we captured a coyote and [...]

Greetings to you on this stormy Sunday. It’s raining so heavily at times, that if you couldn’t hear the “whoosh” outside your window, you’d swear it was fog. We’ve had some beautiful vases of peonies lately, but I’m afraid that they’ve really taken a pounding . . . I can see their petals and those [...]

Here is a passive-aggressive entry. I’m writing it because I was all prepared to go out and run an errand, only Knobby got pouty b/c he wanted to go and guilted me into waiting for him. That was an hour and a half ago. Oh sure, he’s working. He had to “finish this problem” before [...]

I’m not keeping up with my blogging very well, am I. Me: I went to a new doctor last week. He doubled my prescription dosage, and I have faced the world a lot since then. One day I went to Target and bought curtain panels — one each of two different patterns for the living [...]

Oof. We’re fatigued here today. Had a late night. Knobby worked through the night until six this morning; I gave up at 2:30. All that nightowledness, YET, we failed to get the trash to the curb for today’s pickup. I woke up way before my alarm, got up, felt . . . well, I consumed [...]
