Month: December 2022

Merry Christmas

We survived the last freeze of 2022. All two days of it. Christmas Eve it was well above freezing. Enough to take the dogs out for a walk. They took the time to relish every last leaf pile they came upon. They had a lot of sniffing to catch up on, having not had walks … Continue reading Merry Christmas →

Deep Freeze 2022

It's bitter outside. It'll be 10 degrees tonight. That's not usual for December in DFW. Hell, it's not usual nearly anytime here, except recently it seems. That means work needs to be done to make sure there isn't misery over Christmas weekend. Cover plants, make sure hose faucets are covered, make sure the house is … Continue reading Deep Freeze 2022 →

Descent into Hell, Part 2

I thought my trip to the mall was bad, what came next was even worse. I was over helping my wife with the grandkids a week prior, and they all were sick. No matter, I generally don't get these things. Not a day later the missus was laid low by a godawful flu. At least … Continue reading Descent into Hell, Part 2 →

Descent into Hell, Part 1

The mobile started misbehaving even worse than usual the other day. I'd been getting a day or so out of a charge, and marketly less so if I used it at all. I started noticing that I couldn't surf really well, and got to thinking it had been sometime that I've seen a 5G icon. … Continue reading Descent into Hell, Part 1 →

Dog Stuff

The world's heading to hell in a handbasket. Doesn't seem to bother the dogs one bit. I tried out a new primary doc today. Seems smart and dedicated. The last guy I had blew a cancer diagnosis ("MMMh..don't know. It's not cancer, it's too soft). What he was poking at was a stage 2 tumor … Continue reading Dog Stuff →

Riding the Pain Train

It's been a horrible week, for a number of reasons. Some self inflicted, some not. I've been fighting a cold and stomach bug nearly all week. It's not the coof. My sinuses were stuffed (not dripping, inflamed), My stomach's been on the edge of nausea, and I'm not sleeping well. The sinus medication wrecks my … Continue reading Riding the Pain Train →

Alexa no longer works here

I've fired Alexa. I had high hopes. Bought all the cool intelligent home gadgets. But Herself didn't like Alexa and Alexa didn't like here. Wouldn't listen to her. And Alexa needed to stick her fingers in every smart home account to make them work. You see, Alexa can't do shit on her own. And you … Continue reading Alexa no longer works here →

My HEB Adventure

I thought I wrote about this. Damn, I'm old. I go to doctors a lot. It's what happens after cancer therapy. You collect doctors. In this case a cardiologist. Not that anything's wrong. What sent me there in the first place was bullshit. It was a seperated rotator cuff and a hangover that I mistook … Continue reading My HEB Adventure →

Shark Attack

More like a whiff. I bought a shark robit vac to keep up with the mess around here. It does a decent job. Dogs run in with wet paws, it dries, shark hoovers it up with dog hair then dumps it in it's dust bin that I empty maybe once a week. It starts it's … Continue reading Shark Attack →
