Thoughts on the Day

  • I was actually productive and in a good mood all day.  It felt….. odd.
  • What’s that you say?  The effort you made me work on a Sunday to get you ready for isn’t going to be finished for almost two months?  No problem, I’ll just put the clean-up work I need to do off for another month.  Thanks so much.
  • It is amazing how fast people, who normally move at speeds that would piss off snails, move when there is a big black thunderhead rolling toward them and they have a long walk out to their car.
  • For once, the drivers in Louisville acted like sane, rational people while driving through a rainstorm.  Again, it felt….. odd.
  • If our green beans keep growing up their trellis at their present rate, I’ll be climbing them and bringing down a singing harp sometime in the next few weeks.
  • Our first baby tomato is doing well, and we should have our first cucumbers and bell peppers in the next few days.
  • Of course there’s a 40% chance of thunderstorms in Norfolk this weekend.  All I’m going to be doing is standing out in the middle a big concrete pad next to a big aluminum airplane.
    • Irish Woman didn’t seem upset when I told her this.  She may have finally figured out how much life insurance I carry.
  • When making and canning applesauce in June, it is a good idea to crank the kitchen ceiling fan to “Turbo” and open a couple of windows.
    • Then again, who doesn’t like a nice schwitz?
  • I love the way a thunderstorm and heavy rain sounds.
    •  Moonshine, however, feels the need to protect the family from whatever is making all that noise.
    • A dog barking at the sky at 10 PM is not optimal.
  • The whole house smells of apples and cinnamon.  I ate a huge dinner, but I’ve never had such a case of the “Feed me!” before, at least not in June.
    • Thanksgiving doesn’t count, because if the smell of roasting turkey doesn’t make you hungry, then you need to see a doctor.
