Fall Arrives

I was sitting outside on our patio furniture watching squirrels harvesting for winter. I’ve been having internet problems all week and haven’t been able to waste time online, so nature got my full attention for a while. It’s been overcast and rainy all week. The leaves are falling.

Just Thinking Out Loud

We’re considering selling our house and looking into other areas of the country for living and working. It’s a hard decision for us, but there’s really nothing here and, sadly, doesn’t look like there’s a lot being done by our county to remedy that situation.

A&E is missing a golden opportunity

I have come to the conclusion that I need to upgrade my ddr ram because I need to watch more television programs online and it seems I’m having issues right now because, well, I tend to download more than one at a time. Totally my fault, of course. I should no better. But I always [...]
