Cam arrived safely around noon yesterday. We located the title! (I needed Cam’s eyes to accomplish the task). After lunch at the Chinese buffet, we dropped by the dealership and they said that they’ll take the car. I will be dropping it off later today since I needed to wait for the owner to come […]
I have noticed a strange synchronicity when it comes to capturing mice. Almost all of them have set the traps off around 3 a.m. So I was not surprised when I was awakened this morning by the sound of a trap being sprong. What was surprising, however, was that both of the living room traps […]
We’re in the midst of some pretty severe thunderstorms right now. There is a flash flood watch in effect (doesn’t impact me here up on the ridge) and storms are to continue throughout the day. I know I’ve talked about my smart home before. Well, at 2 a.m. we had a power blip, which results […]
I think I used up all my creativity for a while. I’m kind of blank right now. I did start looking for the title, but it’s slow going. I’m trying to shred everything that I don’t currently need. There has been LOTS of shredding. I don’t even want to think about the moutainous pile of […]
I was awakened at 4 a.m. by the sound of a trap doing its job. I present today’s culprit: It did turn out to be another deer mouse. What the picture does not accurately capture is the length of this little guy’s tail. I was almost twice as long as his body. Pretty impressive, actually. […]
I settled down to sleep a little after 9:30 p.m. last night. Within minutes, I heard what I thought to be the mouse trap under the front windows going off. I dozed off again for maybe half an hour and then realized the noise had stopped so I turned on the lights and investigated, intending […]
I managed to avoid napping yesterday without caffeine. However, I did fall asleep earlier than intended, at 7 p.m. This resulted in me waking up briefly at 10 p.m. to shut down the computer and take some Motrin (because I slept wrong and my neck was killing me and I knew I wouldn’t go back to […]
I made a ton of progress yesterday in the office area of my living room. I cleared a lot of the clutter, hooked up my printer again, ordered some supplies off Amazon for projects that I’ve been ignoring for far too long, did some computer maintenance, basically, a variety of things that needed doing. I […]
I give up, the more I try to adjust my body clock, the more off-kilter I seem to go. I sat down yesterday to watch some TV at 2 p.m. and slept until 9 p.m. I got up and tried to go back to bed at midnight, but just laid awake for two hours, so […]
T This is the first post in a new category that I have created called “Stories Worth Sharing.” This category will be used to relay stories from my past, commentary on current events and anything else I consider “worthy” enough to be shared. This particular post was inspired by an Internet meme going around […]
