I Managed to Cleanse my Mind of Bitterness

I Managed to Cleanse my Mind of Bitterness
The rain finally arrived today, and when it did, there were sheets of it. I'm not so sure our farmers are needing anymore because they're likely hoping for their matured crops of corn and beans to be getting a good field-drying instead of having to pay for many thousands of gallons of propane to run their grain dryers. As most farmers know, they ge … continue reading

We Exploit the Earth with our Apathy and Greed

We Exploit the Earth with our Apathy and Greed
Without a doubt, I was in a bit of shock when seeing our Downtown temps at 92 degrees, and to think we're at the 19th of September. I'm now wondering if we've broken some daytime temperatures in our area so far this year. At least the wind was blowing enough to make us feel it wasn't so hot. With it being another Sunday morning, I hurried myself … continue reading

It’s Definitely Not the Wheel of Fortune

It’s Definitely Not the Wheel of Fortune
It was a delightfully pleasant day, and you can be sure I was enjoying every moment possible while outdoors. After writing last night's journal page, I was contacted by another Realtor wanting to show one of my listings, and since it was so late, I had to wait until the morning to call my sellers. When the hour of eight arrived, I was on the phone … continue reading

A Ripple Effect on our Plants and Animals

A Ripple Effect on our Plants and Animals
With the wind having changed directions, it ended up being a bit chilly outdoors, and the rain we were supposed to get, was not more than a short light drizzle. Oh well, I guess something's better than nothing. Knowing I needed to do a little gifting of a few vegetables out of my garden this morning, I made sure to get most of it done before the … continue reading

Pushing their Failures on the Plates of Others

Pushing their Failures on the Plates of Others
It was back up in the 80's again today, but thankfully the southerly wind has kept the humidity at bay. I know we've had our weather issues, but after watching a short news clip on BBC today, we must continue to be thankful we didn't get hit with the drought like they've been having out West. Today's video was about the drought in the Plains Provin … continue reading

Until they’re Physically in your Presence

Until they’re Physically in your Presence
I can certainly tell the days are getting shorter when finding myself driving to office in the dark at my normal time. I was surprised again when seeing our Downtown temps having risen to almost 85 degrees today. I'm sure much of this unusual heat is being pushed up from the Gulf States as a spill-over from their tropical storm. It sounds like we'l … continue reading

They Must’ve been Musical Van-lifers

They Must’ve been Musical Van-lifers
Another semi-quiet Tuesday passed without much notice, and about all I managed to get done, was follow-up on emails, call a few customers and clients, and meet with a contractor out at a house belonging to one of my clients which is in need of some repairs. I forgot to mention yesterday an interesting happening when I was at a groceteria while b … continue reading

It Wouldn’t be my Cup of Tea Location

It Wouldn’t be my Cup of Tea Location
Considering how cool it was out this morning, I was surprised to find out temps being so high today along with the humidity, it felt even warmer. Irregardless, I'm just happy we're not getting frosted because I have late vegetable crops to harvest once they've matured. I'm not even going to "go there" regarding the issues I've had with deer these r … continue reading

Attend Traditional Services on a Regular Basis

Attend Traditional Services on a Regular Basis
In spite of it being mostly overcast most of the day, I considered the cooler temps a welcome relief from yesterday's heat and humidity. Now that we're slowly approaching the autumnal equinox, I'm finding our daylight hours growing shorter and cooler nighttime temps. Let's keep our fingers crossed we'll not be having a frost for several weeks or mo … continue reading

The Willful Murder of all those Innocent People

The Willful Murder of all those Innocent People
The weather people mentioned we'd be seeing more smoky skies today, and that's exactly what we got, along with high humidity and above average temps. According to what I read today, our highs aren't supposed get past 70 degrees tomorrow, and if that be the case, that's all I can say is, "What a relief." Before the hour of eight, I had my clothes … continue reading
