Back on track through today. The writing has been uneven to say the least. There is far too much that will get cut out eventually, but much of it is background development. I’m developing an appreciation for preparatory work prior to writing. And the funny thing about that is that … Continue reading →
In no particular order, here are some of the things I’m thinking about today. I’m wondering why I can’t find today’s front page San Antonio Express-News story about Henry Cisneros and his role in the current housing crisis on the website…. Maybe it won’t get posted until later — wait, … Continue reading →
Yes, I am amazed. For the first time, we have all three felines in the garden window at the same time, and nobody is fussing: As you can tell, the lines of demarcation are getting a little closer together. If you can’t guess, Natasha is on the right side. … Continue reading →

I pulled the boxes out of the attic today. They’re sitting next to the item that belongs in them patiently waiting for me to decide when to place the item inside and ensure it’s safely packed for the move. I vacuumed the back of the truck and returned the bed … Continue reading →
When is the time you most want your satellite radio to work? On a long drive is one time that comes to mind. Yesterday, mine let me down. I hadn’t used it for three weeks. I’d taken it off the dash and tucked it into my console. Prior to driving … Continue reading →
About a week ago, a strange residential mini-dumpster showed up on my front curb (just like everyone else’s — Montgomery gives each household a mini-dumpster to roll out to the road up to twice a week for trash pick-up) . It wasn’t mine. Wasn’t my next door neighbor’s. I saw … Continue reading →
