Monday is winding down, at least the daylight portion of it. It turned out to be a pretty fine day with about 75% spent with great friends. About 3:00 PM I remembered I had one more thing I wanted to attend to. Two more cable boxes needed to be picked up. A trip to the cable company store is rarely a fun thing and I’d thought that 3:00 would be a good time to go. Actually it wasn’t too bad – when I first walked in the receptionist indicated to would be 20-30 minutes. He stopped me a little later and said the line was moving well and I was next up after about 10 minutes. A very few minutes later I was out the door and on my way back to “old #5.” Last time I was out front the partner was still gone with his son car shopping. Good Luck Boys!
I just stepped out to the courtyard to pickup a bag of pork skins, to discover rather rudely I might add, that it’s RAINING. A cold winter rain- Ok, OK it isn’t THAT cold but it isn’t comfortable. “I’m spoiled you say?” Eh could be.
Back into Crusty’s Cavern, bag of fried pork skins, a glass of brew and some Doc Watson bluegrass playing and a book lays within
my grasp –(see previous paragraph ref “spoiled”) How on earth can I ever gripe ? I expect I’ll always be able to find a way but I’ll know it isn’t well founded.
Tomorrow” hasn’t gotten much thought yet. A little sunshine or not will probably be a determining factor. Lots of things COULD dominate the investment of time & effort. Sunshine would lead me to another pass through the front yard to stay ahead of the falling leaves from next door – fall through late spring means LEAVES falling from it / a few warm days and it has new ones till the next cool days and then it just starts over OR I could continue the shop “thing” in anticipation of Shorty’s “new to him” car needing SOMETHING done to it.
