The days were lovely this week. The proper late spring weather with sun, moderate temperatures, and a bit of rain. This coming week, it will be over 100F, or at least in the 90s F, with plenty of humidity. I am vexed by this, dear reader. Vexed, I tell you. If I don't update you … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: June 12, 2022

Sunday Sum-Up: June 5, 2022
It's always nice to have another day off, and thanks to Memorial Day here in the U.S., I had an extra day. So I slept in and did a lot of reading, writing, and drawing. And it was lovely and relaxing. On my regular day off, I went downtown-- to the art museum, the used … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: June 5, 2022

It's been a bit of a dreary week around here. We had straight three days of rain, which isn't the most common type of weather around here, and while I appreciate a proper gloomy day, it gets less appreciable as puddles turn to ponds and you can't go anywhere without getting at least a bit … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 29, 2022

An odd week around here. It was hot for the first part of the week, and then it got cold-- so I had to run my air conditioner most of the day on Wednesday, and by Thursday night the radiators were back on. Oh, Nebraska. You do love your weird weather. The carpet layers finally … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 22, 2022

Every now and then, I suffer from bouts of insomnia, and this week another one started up so I've been a bit muzzy-headed and sleepy. Cue the morning coffee and Diet Coke and the knowledge that one of these days I'll get through it and I'll be sleeping normally again. Until then, I just have … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 15, 2022

Whoever stopped by and picked up some windy days: Thank you! The lack of wind is much appreciated. It came along with some rainy days, which we needed so thank you for that, too. In other news, it's been a busy but not busy week. Work has been hectic, but my days off were mostly … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 8, 2022

I mentioned last week that you were all welcome to come and take some of our windy days, but it seems that no one took me up on the offer, and so we had another week's worth of wind. Just so you know, the offer still stands. You're all welcome to claim a few windy … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 1, 2022

This was a pretty laid-back week. Except for an attempted tornado on Tuesday night, when thunderstorms came through the area and there was some rain-wrapped cloud rotation happening above my neighborhood, but it never touched the ground so we didn't actually have a tornado. Huzzah. There was a bit of hail and rain along with … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 17, 2022

Do you ever have a week that starts out incredibly stressful because of a pair of problems at work that eats at your mind day and night, and you think it's going to be a disaster because they're not going to get solved, and then lo! Events fall into place in just the way you … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 10, 2022

It's been a quiet week around here, with some real rain and snow (and rain and snow at once), plenty of relaxing on my part (and on the cats' parts), along with plenty of reading and writing. It's nice to have weeks like this. I'll be heading over to friends' house to watch The Oscars … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: March 27, 2022
