Home at last. Eeek! There’s SOOOOOOO much to do. Thank goodness hubby got up here last week to make two passes on the lawn with the lawnmower. Otherwise, I’d REALLY be freaked out. Where to start? Naturally, I turned on the Mac Mini and got all the updates, downloaded email, … Continue reading →
I should make multiple posts, I suppose, but I’m taking the shotgun approach and putting the current ideas all in one. First, the upbeat part, Darlene Ryan‘s Five Minutes More is an excellent read. Darlene writes YA novels, but I enjoy them anyway. Five Minutes More‘s main character is a … Continue reading →
I re-looked at the taxes this morning, and we still owe. Everything looks to be in order, so we’ll write up the final versions, make copies, get the check cut, and send it in. Estimated tax check is cut and waiting for us to fill out the form, address the … Continue reading →
It’s been a quick week in San Antonio. We head back to Central Texas tomorrow. Hubby has a dentist appointment on Thursday. We’ll be there for a week, then come back to SA to party for Fiesta and catch the New Braunfels Swap Meet. I’ll get a chance to meet … Continue reading →

Not much here, so you can keep moving if you want. I’ve been trying to learn how to read my web site logs and error messages, because, apparently, they tell me something that I could use to fix problems. I’ve been trimming bushes and bagging the debris. In San Antonio, … Continue reading →
It’s a glorious 76 degrees (F) outside with mostly clear skies. I sawed some branches that needed to be cut down to size. When my elbow began to hurt from the repetition, I moved on to an experiment. We have thirteen crape myrtles along our back property line that have … Continue reading →
This has been a roller coaster year. On the up-side, I’m thrilled to have been able to retire this year after 28 years on active duty. I never would have imagined I would be able to do so back in April 1980 when I signed my enlistment contract with the … Continue reading →
