Good morning. It'll be 40s-70s here. I'll be leaving for a hike in a bit. This afternoon, we'll go to a reception for two gay friends who recently got married. How times have changed. Enjoy your day.

Good morning. The high temp for the day went by around 5:30 am and it's all down hill from here. Played 9 holes of golf yesterday, cold and damp. Can't brag about my score except that the best of the foursome only beat me by 7 strokes so no one was doing well in these conditions. OTOH, it is January and we were playing golf so things could be worse.

Waiting for repairman for my garden tractor. Wife is out of town so that means I cannot go down to the music room and wail on my tele. Oh well there is Premier League on NBCS

Out for an hour with the dog, 52 laps (lost track of time), and made dinner for the two of us (chicken curry, salad, brown rice).

Good Morning Good People
Sorta cold and sorta snowy. Lots of desk work but I will start the day in the workshop tuning up some stationary power tools. Power tools are great, because they allow one to make twice as many mistakes twice as fast, but one spends more time adjusting them than cutting wood.
Maybe enough snow for cross-country skiing tomorrow.
Have a splendid Saturday one and all.

I am up but not quite awake. Another dreary day with and an Artic Blast predicted to hit us again in 24-48 hours. Ugh.
Enjoy the day.

Morning. Katie is home from college this weekend, I cannot believe she will be 19 next week. Cleaning up the backyard from the huge birch we had taken down, multiple trips to dispose of branches, rent a log splitter, etc. it was a big tree, probably 50 yrs old but was dying. Hopefully more sun for tomatoes this summer.

The Crud has arrived. It was only a matter of time in this incubator we call a house. Juliet had her EEG yesterday, and we'll see results on Wednesday. In the mean time, I'm going to sleep.

Mornin'.....
If the kids would get their butts outta bed, we could get on the road to Kansas City. Barb and I have been packed for a couple of hours.
Paul......if you're home, stay there and get rid of the Crud. Doesn't sound like fun. I'll be back before long.

This afternoon, we'll go to a reception for two gay friends who recently got married. How times have changed. Enjoy your day. That'd be weird. Apparently I'm not liberal enough. I mean, I fully support gay marriage. If people want to get married, they should be able to. But if I went to that reception, I'd be looking around thinking this is straaaaange.I'm going to go watch MSNBC and eat granola. Maybe that'll help. |

Bill and Lonnie haven't checked in yet, probably still out shoveling.  Wonder if I'll get any customers today, not a lot of snow but enough to be a PITA if one wants to go anywhere. |

Bill checking in -- I was hoping to go to Eau Claire today, but my cold and this nuisance snow make it inadvisable. So I guess I will wait for the plow to go by to see if this snowfall merits firing up Bluto the Blower or not. Then it's on to Trader Joe's for food and drink.

I spent all day yesterday performing my duties as the local scholarship chair for our social club. Review the applications for completeness and proper coding. Review the essays for eligibility. Send everything out to the judges. This is my first year as chair. It was more fun being a judge. The day before was the unplanned trip to Tucson to return our defective TV and get another one, then get it set up. I'm not feeling very retired. I need a day off.
Also just read in the local newspaper that a good friend's grandson has died at age 20. I'm pretty sure it was suicide and have been trying to figure out what to say to her when I call.
I'll be better after I have my goat cheese and sun dried tomato omelet, currently being whipped up by Mr. H.
