Snow is rapidly retreating.. though with more than 4 feet of this crap, it's not rapid enough. The mountians in front of my house are finally low enough that I can see the street again.  There is room for more snow should we get it, and trust me, I'm not ruling out an April Fools storm.. 2 so far in the last 18 years.. you never know anymore.

Did you hear the buzz? Well, I didn't. Not till it was too late. Friday ended the day with three yellow jacket stings after I weed whipped or stepped on a bees nest. And unlike most time where I can just run away a few dozen feet, these fellows were either on me and didn't want to get off, or were really persistent. Ran to the truck 100 feet or ( Read more... )

Ryther and I have been trying to get back into walking. With Himself's schedule it doesn't work quite as easily, but if we go just after he does, we can do a loop. Then again, it's also been raining half the damn days. But we really need to get moving again ( Read more... )

So in my other life, on FB, I'm friends with a woman who's a pastor of a local church. She's very nice, lover her to death, but sometimes she posts these things that I comment on, and I'm not very popular about the comment. I've actually apologized to her for putting out my opinion on her post (cause you know I'm not opinionated) after I realized I ( Read more... )

This morning started very windy with some rain, so no Biv. It stopped raining for a while, and I did get some leaves blown, but when I went back out with the mower, it started to rain again. My brother needed me to let his dog out, which I did, and I got it in my head I needed to put in some posts for his gate to the dog's pen. So I did that. It's ( Read more... )

I have to decide what to enter into the next art show. I can do up to four things, but I'm not sure what one other painting to put in. I could try to put in the nude I did, but I'm not sure. Sometimes nudes dont go over well ( Read more... )

I'm just making a note that my eyes are going. Well, okay, my eyes are gone. I've had to wear glasses since high school for distance, which started with chalkboards and driving and movies, and is now 'put them on when you get up and take them off when you go to bed'. But lately I've noticed that my close up vision is going. I used to have very good ( Read more... )

Last night I was invited out to the Fours with some of the neighbor women to celebrate another neighbor's birthday. I drove my next door neighbor (since I don't drink) and we didn't see anyone there we knew when we got there. The place was packed. A few minutes later another neighbor arrived, and we plowed forward into the bar area to try to find ( Read more... )
