    stubbed toes and mud pies

    i am back in the worm keeping again! today because we went to the greenhouse and i was with Mom and helping deliver things i could spend a few minutes talking to them. i normally don't get out much and that's my issue and they are normally really busy and i don't want to take too much of their...

    Your Weather, 2026

    when i wrote that i didn't know that Mom was going to make chocolate muffins... the main roads were fairly clear with some ice in spots, the side roads had more snow cover but were not too bad. i've certainly driven on worse.

    Funny Business

    if you recall Garfield loves lasagna... :) meee tooo! (he's willing to walk in a pan of lasagna to claim it as his own, i am close to that level of devotion but i will share) he's been a hero to me for many years, same as Snoopy and Woodstock (and friends :) )...

    Funny Business

    Your Weather, 2026

    cold, sunny, a little fresh snow. Mom wants potatoes (that she didn't put on her shopping list for when i was out Friday) for her veggie soup so i may be doing a little driving today - plus we have lasagna and fried rice to drop off for some people if they are in...

    Newbie

    speaking of times of driving when it would have been better to stay put (i have several of these stories :) )... the most notable dumb trip was coming from up north at the university to down here where family is at one winter. we came down the usual route and then as we were driving across the...

    stubbed toes and mud pies

    and then as usual for a Sunday night and Monday early morning i'm so excited about having to take the trash and recycling out that i woke up three times (ok, the first time was to pee at 2am - i really thought it was 6am). mundane?... yep. completely my frame of mind this early in the...

    stubbed toes and mud pies

    went out and shovelled a little snow to get some fresh air and exercise. i dressed for the cold and it was fine came in warmer than i went out so mission accomplished. i feel a lot better having done something to get moving.

    Do you wish for sweeter tomatoes?

    after last year i don't think i could get sweeter ones. using baking soda would change the pH of your soil a little and that can make more of certain other compounds available to plants. i'm not too likely to do it here, i need to go the other direction for pH with some elemental sulphur to...

    Dreams and their Meaning

    there are some dreams that i've never forgotten and then most of them fade as soon as i get on with the day. at one time i was writing down the more interesting ones because they could have been parts of a story or a play. the dream within a dream cartoon is very fitting for one of the dreams...

    Funny Business

    it's disgusting. much of why i am currently a dinosaur is that i refused to go along with f*buck and no regrets there. still Google and YT got me so they know i exist but how much else they've got on me i don't know and i don't care.

    Today, in 1848
