Thursday August 3rd It should be no surprise to anyone reading this blog that I am a bleeding heart liberal. And as such, I find today to be quite disconcerting. The very fact that this country has reached a place in its history or a large minority of its citizens…
Thursday April 27th Happy Birthday Caitlin McKenzie Thirty-three years ago today our youngest daughter was born. My hope for her birthday is happiness! This morning has been cool and blustery with a bit of rain thrown in. The temperature is 63°. As I got out of bed this morning, distant…
Monday January 30th It's another dreary winter day. The temperature this morning was 50°. It's damp... it's breezy... it's chilly. But, all in all, it's not a bad day for the end of January. Although, it does look a little too green out. Since the temperatures are predicted to stay…
Thursday, January 5th It feels more like winter this morning, 45°... It's still, the sky is cloudless. It's even a little chilly inside the house because with our heat spell since Christmas I've not turned on the heat yet... Not that the house is cool down that much with all…

Winter has decided to move back north and let some spring in the air... The temperature this morning is 56°. It should be 70° on the back porch by the afternoon. That's pretty much what the rest of the week is going to look like, at least according to the…
It seems very strange, to me anyway, that in the year 2021 power generating companies in the state of Texas can't seem to figure out how to run as the temperature approaches zero. Other states, especially in northern states, don't seem to have this unusual difficulty. But not much seems…
The morning starts out warm and gray. An overall, overreaching, overwhelming gray to the world. Even the normally unheard cows in the neighbor's pasture are mooing mournfully. This transitional weather leaves a lot to be desired. Waiting for the change, anticipating the change even, frustrated by the slowness of the…
I woke up, once again, before the alarm. There was such a glow in the bathroom window I had to rush out and capture the sunrise... boy, was it worth it! Now I'm back inside checking to see if anything has changed in the counting of the vote... looks pretty…
