I'm not motivated to do anything today. I don't feel like doing business work, so I'm contemplating what to do with the day ahead of me. It's a ASNutiful, chilly, fall morning... There's plenty of stuff I could do... and even need to do. All the projects I have in...
The pool cover is back on after blowing off. The continued wind made it impossible to re-cover until today. Close clean. Open clean. They say if your pool is clean when it's closed, it will open clean. I can only guess that means if it's closed dirty (leaves have been...
While I took my hummingbird feeders in right before the Disney trip, Mom and Carl left 2 of theirs up. This was the first morning they haven't had at least one visitor -- and the first morning we had a visible frost.
My Momma let me know the trash truck driver saw a coyote coming across the field by the barndo this morning. Cameras off because of the harvesting going on, I missed it. The fall dust bowl started yesterday. Not yet finished, I assumed ole' Rex would be out early to...

First, let me tell you how excited I am to have all the split units working properly. WE HAVE AIR CONDITIONING. FOR REAL! No bill yet -- and I'm expecting it to be big -- but at least it's not a total replacement... yet. An invasive species detected! On our daily...
Yesterday evening, I walked to the home of the Pesky neighbors and convinced them to go for a walk with me. We went from their house to the highway, then back to my place for coffee and conversation. During that time, I captured just a sliver of a sunset -- but I'm...
