And So it Begins…

Welcome to Texas! They've been predicting shitstorms all day. It was supposed to start in the morning, so I was planning on working all day, no dog walking. But it didn't. So, I walked the dogs, then went back to work. After lunch, the sun came out. So I hit a dilemma. Today is a … Continue reading And So it Begins… →

Friday Wrap

I've had a busy week, which was capped off by career week at the rainbow corp I work for. I'm getting alerts that I'm behind in planning out my career goals. Career goals. FFS, I'm 60 years old. I have a deep and wide skillset that eclipses many in my industry. Hand it to me, … Continue reading Friday Wrap →

Odds & Ends

Dude was wiped out last night. That'll be me tonight. It's been a long week. After what seemed like an eternity, my plants are sprouting and growing. It really was like 10 days, just as the seed packs said. You can't hardly see them, but tiny pepper plants are popping up to the left. To … Continue reading Odds & Ends →

Spring is Springing, and a Lazy Dawg

It’s the middle of February, and is still pretty damn cold. But I got my seeds into pots. This time I didn’t order any actual plants, because the plants I ordered from Burpee last year arrived kind of peeked and weren’t really any better than the ones I planted myself. Yesterday I came came into … Continue reading Spring is Springing, and a Lazy Dawg →

Scenes from IceApocalypse 2023

We had a 'wintry mix' last two days. Which was really ice and rain. I was telling my collegues that the white stuff you see isn't snow. It's ice, not unlike the 'snow' that's made at a ski resort. Then it rained on top and froze, as it does about once a year here. BTW, … Continue reading Scenes from IceApocalypse 2023 →

Wintry Mix

We had ice today, which shut down a lot of the numbnuttery. Speaking of numbnuts, Jethro was overjoyed to discover ice was falling from the sky. https://vimeo.com/794682513 I cut out the parts where he was doing his bidness. This is a family site, after all. That white stuff is ice. It was thundering as it … Continue reading Wintry Mix →

And So it Begins…

We're getting a 'Wint'ry Mix' tomorrow, and the city here is shutting down. It's been hovering around freezing today, and right on queue, the simpletons among us have been wrecking their cars. I took a break to go get something to eat, and right in front of Wally World was a mustang up on the … Continue reading And So it Begins… →

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 →

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 →

Well, that was exciting.

I do my best thinking while walking the dogs in the morning. This morning, I was thinking about how when I leave to walk the dogs, the people that are speeding down my street are the old timers, heading God-knows-where. They are ahead of the soccer moms as the most hazardous thing to pedestrians in … Continue reading Well, that was exciting. →
