After my apple watch fell apart, I vowed to give up watches. I went years, decades really, with just my phone as a time source. Then, the issues started. Although I didn't care for the apple watch monitoring everything about my life, it had a few features that I find really handy. I like alerts … Continue reading Wyze Band
Sunday Music
She's a weird chick. But this is a compelling version of the song. It's about Ireland's war for independence from the Brits. https://youtu.be/-9UXN-uTFak Back through the glen I rode again, and my heart with grief was soreFor I parted with those valiant men whom I'll never shall see moreBut to and fro in my dreams … Continue reading Sunday Music
Fixing Hats
I pretty much will wear a hat whenever I will be outside for any period of time. Reason being, I'm bald, and it's Texas where your noggin can get fried in under an hour. So I have a collection of baseball caps. Reason for a collection is I destroy them. You sweat like a champion … Continue reading Fixing Hats

More Irish Music. I first saw Dervish at the Irish Festival in Gaithersburg Maryland. To say they are compelling is an understatement. I can watch Cathy Jordan sing all day long. https://youtu.be/7mdpci6qDe0 Red Haired Mary This one is great. A compelling story, a lesson easily translatable to today's times. For the life of me I … Continue reading Sunday Music

One whose family came over during the potato famine, the others at Irelands civil war in 1916. I … Continue reading Sunday Music
A Slow Week Ramble
So goes another week burning PTO. I really didn't have a honey-do list. Herself rarely has a list for me, depending on me to keep things in order. While at lunch today, she asked what all I got done. Other than the gate, I couldn't think of one thing. What I didn't do is get … Continue reading A Slow Week Ramble
Utter Mayhem
Last night I had a district meeting of the vast right wing conspiracy club. I belong to a number of men's groups, that are involved in mainly charity, but are also social to some extent. A lot of the blogs on my roll to the right extol the virtues of bonding with other men and … Continue reading Utter Mayhem
Check That One Off The List
While I've been off this week, it hasn't all been fooling on my computer and drinking beer. I haven't been on the computer that much. On the agenda is new tires for the hot rod. But, I really didn't feel like it today. I'm not finding tires priced within my comfort zone. The ones that … Continue reading Check That One Off The List
Busy Day
While I'm off this week, I'm trying to get those projects done that have been back-burnered for months. But I'm having momentum issues. You have to stop and smell the flowers sometime... Free Morning Glories More free Morning Glories I didn't plant those flowers last year. I planted them the year before. What you are … Continue reading Busy Day
