I just finished mowing the January weeds in the back yard and pulled the charger out for the mower. Except, the charger case was split open rather spectacularly. Which means some component in the transformer failed — typically that would be a capacitor. No matter. The short answer is I … Continue reading →
Four days down. My cumulative total is 12, 653. That means I have 37,347 words to go. Today, I learned my narrator’s wife-to-be is trying to avoid an arranged marriage–and not to my narrator. Sounds a little tricky, doesn’t it? This is my Central Texas workspace: The Mini is under … Continue reading →
Many of you will remember my joyful posting several years ago when I acquired my 2007 Lincoln Mark LT. It was (and still is) a beautiful truck.

Hubby had to head back to San Antonio today, but before he went, we had some work to take care of out at the ranch. We loaded up the utility trailer with rocks, gravel, and shredded linoleum and headed out. The road construction has made it up to the 1/4 … Continue reading →

Just in case you were wondering, here goes (in no particular order): – Hubby and I got … Continue reading →
We’re working in San Antonio for a couple of weeks. Perhaps we shouldn’t be surprised, but the transition between houses seems to have thrown the kittens for a loop — especially Tarzan. I went to the Apple Store for a little while tonight and perused the new MacBookPros, iPad2s, and … Continue reading →
What’s new? I’ve blogged about WordPress, the iPad, and pizza lately. I don’t know about you, but those are all topics I enjoy, but what else has been going on in my day-to-day world? I’m concerned about the on-going political battle in the United States. I’m not in favor of … Continue reading →
