Hi, y’all! Just a quick admin note.

I’ve decided to start weening myself off of this platform and move over to Substack. Not going to completely stop posting here, but when my current year’s contract with WordPress ends, I’ll be folding tents here.

I already post some things over there that aren’t here, and most everything I post here ends up being posted over there.

My substack is https://tomrogneby.substack.com/.

Hope to see y’all over there!

Shoveled the sidewalk and driveway four times in the last 24 hours. It’ll need at least once more scraping come the morning, but I’m officially done for today.

Being a somewhat conscientious pet owner, I bought and installed rather rugged seat covers for the back seat of my car. It gives the dogs a place to lay down on drives, but protects the upholstery from hair and nails. So far, it’s worked out just fine.

This afternoon, I discovered that Maggie the Destructopooch, likes the taste of seat covers and the zippers they contain. Rather than starting an upholstery protection scheme that resembles “She swallowed to catch the spider to catch the fly”, I’m going to acquire a hard rubber bone of the Kong variety that will live forever in my back seat.

Hopefully, that distracts her from her taste for cordura and aluminum zippers.
