And then it's back to packing! Things are getting real as far as the move goes. We are renting a truck and some load-in muscle on Friday and then heading for NY on Saturday morning. The plan is to take as many boxes (and other things if there is space) as we can. The BaldMan … Continue reading Quick Update
Actually I guess it's more absent with leave, because I am the one who let myself go missing from the blog. Or something like that. Anyway, yeah, I have been neglecting things here for a while, haven't I? It's getting dusty in here, too. *cough, cough* I have just been consumed with packing for our … Continue reading AWOL
That is all. (Nothing major. Just brain overwhelmed at the moment.) ===================== Want something new to add to your 2021 reading lists? Might I suggest one of my books? I have written science fiction, fantasy, and urban fantasy stories. There are novels, novellas, and shorter pieces to fit everyone's reading time. There are even some … Continue reading Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh!
Until we go off on an honest-to-goodness vacation! We are renting, with the BaldMan's sister and her husband, and his parents, a house in Vermont for a week. After more than a year of not going anywhere unnecessary, this almost feels like some sort of escape or something. We don't have any specific plans for … Continue reading Five Days and Counting…
We bought a house. In Vestal, NY, which is in the southern part of the state, near Binghamton. We have been talking about the idea of moving for a bit, and the opportunity to actually do it came up this Spring, so we decided to go ahead with it. The move will put us closer … Continue reading So, We Did a Thing
A collection of things that have been going on around here of late: We lost my Mom in early May. She was 93, and had a stroke last August which she recovered from relatively well. She had some weakness, although she was walking a little. Her speech was slurred at times and she had trouble … Continue reading Miscellanea
To quote the Terminator. Yeah, I have been missing for a bit, haven't I? Just stuff, not all of it big stuff, but some was. Hang in there. I will be back next week with the usual nonsense. And maybe some fun stuff, too. Until then, here have some recent visitors to my bird feeders: … Continue reading I’ll Be Back
Well, more like fasting food. We started intermittent fasting last week. This past year of being locked down and hunkering inside has not done good things for my weight. Our doctor recommended that the BaldMan try the fasting method and so I am going to try it, also. For those who may not be familiar, … Continue reading Fast Food
Or at least I hope it has. It's supposed to be warm all week. I have been out doing some clean up and prep work in the garden boxes. I got the tomato and cucumber boxes moved back to their growing spots, moved the hops buckets out where they will get more sun to warm … Continue reading Monday Musings: Spring Has Sprung
A mélange, if you will, of tidbits on a variety of topics. I mentioned a few weeks ago that we got one of those DNA test kits for Lambeau. We have always suspected that he has some bully in him, but the actual results surprised me. He is 100% American pit bull terrier. Surprising because … Continue reading Much Ado About Nothing
