Day: October 28, 2016
5 for Friday
1. I decided to take a wellness day for me. I’m all out of sorts from the cold anywho so what’s sick day from work? Besides, I have tons of sick time on the books so it won’t be like I’m losing anything.
2. I have one fat squirrel coming to feed at the expense of my birds. The gummys call it “Squirrely”. I call it “target or opportunity” if it doesn’t start leaving the feeders alone.
3. There are a couple outdoor chores to get done tomorrow and that’s it for this season. That reads kinda weird when I read it back. It seems so … concluded. Oh well. It’s time to start pinching off and deadheading the marigolds so I can put them away for next year.
4. The local weather people are saying we’re averaging about 15*F warmer above normal temperatures for this part of the Hundred Acre Wood. I’ll take it if this is the global warming that Al Gore warned us about. I still miss my southern Iowa autumns.
5. One good thing about taking a day off in the work week is getting a chance to see all these old B&W movies on channels like Turner Classic Movies. You do know that John Wayne won World War 2 all by himself don’t you?
My brain isn’t working so good today so I’m off to the market. Feel free to leave comments or even just say “Aloha!”
A quote for Friday
All politicians should have three hats – one to throw into the ring, one to talk through, and one to pull rabbits out of if elected.
– Carl Sandburg
