my prep for bad weather amounts to making sure the propane refill is on-order if we are getting low and getting out the snow shovels and brush/scraper for the car windshield. oh, and if the power seems to be flickering i'll fill up an extra bucket of water to flush the toilets.

livestock including deer will eat it so if you don't want to attract deer you'll need to protect it.

rained off and on through the night. garden club meeting today in the afternoon. i'll be reading and puttering around. library time is always fun for me. will take some beans to shell out and sort through.

i work in energy chunks. that is how much energy my body has is how long i work, that chunk. when i'm done i'm done. lately it has been about three and a half hours of mixed digging, weeding and scraping. the digging is the hardest part and i take breaks to rest a bit as i'm doing it...

i had a funny dream about a dog riding on top of a car in a big pyramid bottom that was chopped off and hollowed out and the dog was so excited to be able to ride up top of the car that it couldn't really decide where to be so it kept scampering about and being excited. the pyramid bottom was...

in honor of that idea i'll have some every day. yesterday was graham crackers with cream cheese frosting (which was not too much sugar, but at least enough that it was sweet). today might be a repeat or some chocolate of some kind, with or without peanuts, or both, or all of the above.

whupass comes in all sizes...

i'm not usually around people other than Mom and she doesn't care much about things like that. if it is warm enough and i'm out in the gardens i have a long sleeved shirt on but the front is not buttoned so i get some air flow. so i am in fact bare chested. however, you won't ever see it, so...

it really helped me when i picked it up. i was having trouble falling asleep. after a few months of practice it started making a difference, plus the exercise was good for me. :)

i do that in my sleep...

welcome aboard. :) i'm guessing those beans are not fully dried yet and will get darker with age?

as much as possible you want gravity to do the work for you when it comes down to moving large amounts of water. look at the size of the canals they have for the amount of water they are moving. the pipelines and pumps for oil just are not big enough in comparison. check out these links...
