I'm Back!

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 15:43:09 GMT

Now that I have finished my yearly duty according to Matthew 22:21, I will try to post a bit more regularly.

I am fine, just been a bit swamped. Now, I need a nice long nap.

Take care, everyone and stay safe!

RIP to Jessi Pierce and her three children, who died in a house fire on Saturday. She was an amazing hockey journalist who was greatly loved and will be greatly missed.

Here is a gofundme set up for her:

And So It Goes II

Sat, 24 Jan 2026 22:50:22 GMT

So, it's been weird. Mostly due to weather. *sigh* I finally got fiber optic installed for my internet, and that is a big plus. However, I failed to inform my cats of this ahead of time and they are finally coming out of "the trauma" that happened on Wednesday, lol. Poor little furballs.

The weather has gotten very cold but the worst of it seems to have avoided it. I am in hibernation mode until maybe Tuesday.

Not much else to say. Just letting people know I am still around even if I'm not posting often. Take care everyone, and stay safe!

((hugs))

Checking In

Sat, 03 May 2025 03:28:35 GMT

So, last month was... weird. And that's enough said about that.

This month, I hope, will be better. I'm visiting family in Chicago (May 5 - 12), so if you don't hear/see me around, don't worry. I might post on Fb though.

No other news for now.

Take care and stay safe!

Well, That Was Fun

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 01:55:22 GMT

So, Tuesday night, we were hit by a major blizzard. For the last few years, in addition to the 24-25 winter, most of the bad weather has seemed to go around us. While other towns and counties in NE were hit fairly bad, we mostly just got brushed with it or minor snow.
