General Announcments

Seems like every time I seem to be ready to sit down and write a bunch of stuff something always gets in the way. This time, as usual, it was a combination of a flare up (disabilities, three each, the really bad one), a snow storm with all the wonderful cleaning up thereafter and the recovery period afterward. It’s amazing how little I can do nowadays.

So I spent my time between the computer, my easy chair, doing small household chores and, as usual in these cases, I fiddle-farted around with the back end of my sites.

Strange as it might seem, where dealing with a great deal of pain might understandably deter me from writing anything for a few days, tinkering always helped take my mind off the way I was feeling. And since I’m currently rather limited (That’s physically! Not mentally, okay?) as to what kind of tinkering I can actually do, my sites are usually the ones that suffer from this type of mental analgesic.

However, this particular site may have actually benefitted from my “distraction” technique this time rather than the other way around or at least I like to think so. We’ll see what others think about it as time goes on.

In the meantime I’m still dealing with the aftereffects of that damn flare up and just to make things more interesting, it looks like I’ll have some more snow to clean up tomorrow as well since it’s been falling steadily for a few hours now. I’d make some remark along the lines of when it rains it pours but at the moment it just doesn’t quite seem to get the point across.

To be continued…(as always)

  1. Gosh darn it Kirk, sorry to hear your flaring. Glad you were able to get a post out. It has been pouring for you lately..sorry. Hope the sun starts to shine on you again soon!

    Merry Chistmas to you and yours.

    • Hi janeywan,

      And a Merry Christmas to you and yours as well and many more merry ones to come.

      The sun was shining today while I was out snow blowing the driveway from last night’s storm and in preparation for tomorrow’s. I got the whole thing done before one of the augers broke it’s shear pin…oops (“oops” is not what I actually said at the time it happened though). Guess that means that our good friend and landlord will just have to send somebody to plow us out, huh? :P

    • Hey Quickroute,

      Glad you like the new look. I mat actually stick with this one but with me , you never know.

      We survived the storm alright with the excpetion of a busted shear pin in one of the snow blower augers. The southern part of the state had massive power outages due to icing they had down there (we had nothing but nice soft snow).

      And have a Merry Christmas and a fine New Year while you’re at it.
