Finally, a happy update!

Shawshank, June 25, 2020June 26, 2020

Until I can get some time this weekend, so that The Editor can help me login so I can post myself I resort to emailing posts. I got a phone on Monday, my dad is lending me his old phone. He still has it, because he’s pretty much a low key hoarder. He has a wall of VHS tapes that he’s been moving for about 30 years. Still has a VCR too. But, I digress. Back to this sweet phone, it’s an iPhone 5 running, I think, iOS 5 or 6. But it does what I need it to do, and a little more. By little more, I can run Netflix, which means on the lowest setting Netflix has (4 hours will cost me about a gig of data), means that I can watch the third series of Dark. I just did a quick test, and I can watch and read the subtitles not too badly. I took two screen shots too

The town is really cute. There’s an air raid siren that blasts at noon. No one tolde about this, and I thought we were being invaded! No one paid any attention to it. 

Today I started the yard work. I pulled weeds, and weed whacked the front and side yard, and around the planters my mom has. Tomorrow after my run, I’ll be working on the back yard. Then I’ll be spraying roundup on all the weeds. Last weekend my dad and I thought we fixed the leaking water tank on his trailer. Well, it’s still leaking, so I figure we’ll be under it this weekend too.

It feels good to be doing stuff again.

At 6pm, this town rolls up its sidewalks and EVERYTHING closes. I have been having a blast wandering around town taking pictures. I’m sure the whole town knows I’m here now. It’s that small. If you’re looking for a stop light, ya better find another town. But let me tell you, I think this town could use a bakery/coffee shop. Badly. Looking into home based businesses we could have a home based slaughterhouse. Crazy huh? 

Ok time to end this post (written entirely on an iPhone 5), my meds are kicking in, and no one else is gonna do my run.

I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.

And I’m too clever, and then I’m too fucking dumb

I’m awake. I’ve been mostly awake since about 5. Podrick was playing this morning, and at one point, I had to go to the bathroom, and had to move his brick back out of the bathroom, and back to the laundry area. It’s just the timend year where sometimes it’s just chilly. Even with snuggly…

A gin & tonic sounds mighty mighty good to me

Good morning. I’ve been up a couple of times this morning, starting at around 2:30 and then again, probably around 6:30ish perhaps. I didn’t look at the clock the second time, so it’s only a guess. But now, here we are, on the couch. I have Chaucer on my lap. The second time I woke…

Good morning. You can tell fall is on its way – it’s colder than a witches tit out in the rest of The Flat. The kitties have been fed. Well, Pippin has. Podrick is still eating. It’s the build up of yummy food today. Because, no food or water after 6 today. Podrick has his…
