The weather has been cool but has warmed up into the high 70’s today. I’ve been meaning to start a pot of soup so that’s what I just finished. It’s simmering on the stove. I browned a pound of ground beef, sliced some turkey sausage, added chopped red onion, left-over corn, a can of blackContinue reading “Soup’s On!”

Time For A Breather
I’ve been cleaning and re-arranging things in the kitchen and it’s time to put my feet up. I’ve done two loads of laundry as well. I moved the juicer and food processor off of the counter to the left of the kitchen range to the built-in counter top in the dining room giving us roomContinue reading “Time For A Breather”
Storms Have Arrived
This was the view out of the living room window at 4:15 this afternoon. It’s 7 pm now, dark, and the second round of storms has arrived. We got some work done in the garage today, moved some things around, blowing the dirt and debris out. We were finishing when the worst of it hit.Continue reading “Storms Have Arrived”
It’s Spring In February, Sort Of
It’s in the mid 70’s today and was near 80° earlier this afternoon. It’s just after 5 pm and we’ve had the house open enjoying the fresh air. It’s cloudy, but still a nice day. I’ve spent the afternoon working on Brad’s socks and puttering around on the laptop, enjoying what’s going on with TwitterContinue reading “It’s Spring In February, Sort Of”
It’s Adding Up
You are looking at another 48.56 pounds of spinning fiber. I weighed the contents of one basket, no problem. I weighed the other basket including the contents and then weighed the basket and subtracted the difference. Same with the plastic bin. A lot more there than it appeared to me at the outset. The lighterContinue reading “It’s Adding Up”
12th Day of Christmas
Happy 12th Day of Christmas! It’s 7:30 am and the sky is getting lighter. The sun will be peeking through the trees very soon. It’s 31° with no breeze this morning. We will start the coffee and decide about breakfast shortly. I’m leaning toward some hot cereal to go with our morning coffee. Maybe aContinue reading “12th Day of Christmas”
Elon Strikes Again, And Again
Yesterday was quite interesting. James O’Keefe, Emerald Robinson, Matt Couch, Mike Lindell and others had their accounts on Twitter restored. Then there was installment #6 of the Twitter Files aimed at the FBI. Fox was losing their collective minds starting with “Elon Musk’s Twitter Massacre” on The Five over Musk suspending ‘journalists’ who were doxxingContinue reading “Elon Strikes Again, And Again”
So Close
What is it about the last inch or so of a project that seems to take longer than you think it will? Sigh. I will finish this thing. This afternoon. No more interruptions. What an interesting day it’s been and it’s not even 1 pm yet! First of all Fancy Nancy Pelosi is not seekingContinue reading “So Close”
What a Gorgeous Day!
It was 37° this morning at 8 am, mostly clear and no breeze to speak of. It’s 53° now and it’s nearly 5 pm. Clear, no breeze. Thankfully. Brad and I just took a stroll out to the road to see if our trash got picked up. It did. They forgot it earlier and IContinue reading “What a Gorgeous Day!”
It’s A Beautiful Morning
It’s 61° outside, partly cloudy, with a light breeze. The grass is greening up and the ground is still very squishy! We have more rain coming later this week so that is good news. We’ve not had a lot of runoff as most of the rain has been slow and steady and has been soakingContinue reading “It’s A Beautiful Morning”
