Shatter with words impossible to follow Shawshank, August 21, 2020 Good morning, happy Friday. If you’re reading this, y’all made it. It’s almost the weekend. Quiet start to the day here at Shady Acres. Bread is being made. Another couple of hours, and we’ll be heading into SlightlyBiggerTown to get my mom’s meds. And since it’s Friday, I should have some mail. A book that I asked myom to order for me. Like I told Crystal, it’s the first thing I asked my mom for. Originally, my mom and dad were supposed to go to CapitalCity to get some parts for a combine. My mom didn’t exactly know where they’d be in the city, opted to order it instead. And it should be here today. I’ll go out after lunch to see if it’s at the post office. I remembered yesterday that Crystal was learning German on Duolingo, so I jumped up and got the app, and started learning yesterday. I spent about 45 minutes yesterday stumbling through the lessons. I achieved level 2 by pure luck. This morning, I logged in, and with skill and perfection, made it to level 3 in just a few lessons. Ich bin ein mann. It was so hot iny bedroom (hot hot was it?!), I had a terrible time falling and staying asleep. I was so very stuffed up. Mix that with weird Mad Max: Fury Road dreams (remind me to stop watching car shows before bed), it was a long night. But, tonight I know I’ll sleep better. Life bloglifemornings

I think probably minutes, my brain went you should’ve shut off the alarm. Then it went off. Assuming that Crystal had a terrible sleep, I told her to stay in bed. Then I closed the door so she can hopefully sleep a little more. We’re under a freezing rain… Read More
Life Well, we’re all in the mood for a melody and you’ve got us feelin’ alright September 3, 2025 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… Read More
Life Finger in the air, slinging prayers, hair wind blown March 24, 2026 Here we are, awake again. Podrick was a very good boy this morning. I don’t know about Crystal but I was only awake a couple of times. He only walked over me once or twice. So I call that a win. There’s not a lot of snow out there anymore…. Read More
