My little space. in A small but passable life.
Is it really the 19th already? Time really does fly when I’m into a new novel and the event free routine is zinging right along. My “latest entry” was the 13th, nearly a week ago. The windows are...
Am I annoying? in A small but passable life.
Yesterday was more errands. First stop was the radiology place. Second stop was the primary doc for a script renewal. Third stop was a new (to me) little hole in the wall eatery where we had lunc...
The highest rank? in A small but passable life.
Yesterday Mom wanted her hair done. So off to Nikki’s we went. (A nice hug from Nikki for bringing Mom in?) After that Mom wanted to go to the fabric store. While she was in there I went next doo...
POOF? in A small but passable life.
Columbus Day. Indigenous Peoples Day. Day One of the Greatest Genocide in human history? Anyway, this is what I always think of on this day: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbus_Day_Storm_of_1...
I was right, again. in A small but passable life.
I’m usually right. Well, I’m right a lot of the time. This may come from the fact that I have time to sit and think through things a fair bit. Yesterday we went and looked at the scooter. Mom tes...
Here we go again. in A small but passable life.
Evening before last, the day I re-surfaced the carport, I made chicken enchiladas. A simple recipe. Boil and then cut up two chicken breasts. Mix up the chicken, a can of cream of chicken soup, a...
Always remember. in A small but passable life.
Yesterday was busier than most. I woke up at the usual time. Had two cups of coffee while finishing up clearing crap off the carport and porch. I went to the grocery store with a fistful of coupo...
So yeah. in A small but passable life.
It’s a maybe not. 100 degrees is predicted for both Saturday and Sunday. I had to put aside the Lewis & Clark journals for a bit. I’m kinda getting annoyed with their attitude. It’s like if ...
Just saying. in A small but passable life.
Yesterday it was 100 degrees. Maybe that will be the last 100 degree day for the year, maybe not. A definition is called for here. Terrorist: 1. a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidati...
TV online. in A small but passable life.
I’m so tired of people calling Trump a piece of shit. It’s an insult to shit. Shit has uses. Trump is useless. Yesterday was Mom’s nail appointment at Walmart. So, that meant I could wander aroun...
As always. in A small but passable life.
The nights are still cool enough to sleep with open windows and the A/C off. But the days are forecast to return to the upper nineties for a week or so. November 8, 1805. Lewis & Clark have r...
Ignorance unbound. in A small but passable life.
First, the weather. The A/C has been turned off and the windows opened for two nights in a row now. It was sixty-five degrees in here this morning when I woke up. The daytime highs haven’t reache...
Fall! in A small but passable life.
Today may the first day since I’d arrived on May 1st that the daytime temperature won’t rise above ninety degrees. We’ll see. October 19th, 1805- Lewis and Clark are on the Western side of the c...
Nine years. in A small but passable life.
For only the second time since May I was able to turn off the A/C and open the windows at midnight. It was 75 degrees at midnight and 75 degrees this morning at 8am. The forecast calls for night ...
More errands. in A small but passable life.
Yesterday was a fine uneventful day. Coffee and reading and putting together a crockpot of soup in the morning. After lunch I drove Mom to her GP. In and out fairly quickly. Back home for NPR on ...
Maybe a cookie? in A small but passable life.
We left the house yesterday morning at about 10:30am and didn’t return until nearly 2pm. One of the last stops was a mall. A shopping mall of pretty good size. It was sadly deserted. What stores ...
Today will be fine. in A small but passable life.
The phone rang before 8am this morning. I let it ring until Mom picked it up in the house. A few minutes later she came out and said it was for me. Daughter, calling with a question about the cam...
A few more weeks. in A small but passable life.
Yesterday I gave Lillie from across the street a ride to Nikki’s beauty shop. I dropped her off and went to St. Vincent’s thrift shop for a look around. I didn’t see anything new. I went to Walma...
Back to normal? in A small but passable life.
Why am I seeing ads for gun silencers on PB? Most odd. Or just stupid? I went to the hospital yesterday to have lunch with Mom. I ate all mine. She ate none of hers. I went back home. Mom called ...
I'm envious. in A small but passable life.
Mom went to go play with her friends yesterday at 1pm. Less than an hour later Lillie from across the street called and said that mom had passed out at the table. She was bringing Mom’s car to me...
Amused. in A small but passable life.
Mom didn’t bring it up yesterday so I thought it prudent that I shouldn’t either. Maybe she just didn’t realize what day it was. I remember a couple of months ago when I happened to mention that ...
Life is life. in A small but passable life.
I’ll call it a productive day in that I actually did something. This morning I went to the grocery store and wandered a bit. I forgot ketchup. This evening I went to the pool house to shower and ...
Here she comes. in A small but passable life.
I’m amused by the conservatives habit of making up derogatory names for liberals. Especially when the liberals really have ever only used one for conservatives: stupid. libtard antifa Really? Th...
A Houston cousin. in A small but passable life.
Mom has finally heard through her brother in Midland about his daughter and her family in Houston. Their house never flooded but is basically on a small island. They are currently hosting/housing...
Dipshits. in A small but passable life.
Hypocrisy. Both Republicans and Texans. They both say “Fuck the Federal Government” until they need money. Dipshits. The common folks though, we’d better say “there but for the grace of the flyi...
