I Remember A Time

 Yes, I remember a time when life seemed to me to be much better than it is now, or ever can be again in the future. I remember other times that were not so long ago, too. Like these sunflowers, for instance. 

A change of weather is in the near future, here, and that will be good. They say, those who are in a position to make forecasts, that it will be much more temperate for a few days, and that more rain will be possible. Memorial Day is done and I'm glad of that. It was a scorcher. 

Really Hot

 But it's that time of year. This week might see some relief and maybe even a little more rain!

January 2nd it got down to 8 degrees F here, and I'd rather be dealing with the heat than that kind of cold. Covid continues to spread. I'd like to think that's it's modifying human DNA in interesting ways but that's science fiction. Creating the basis for a new and improved humanity-- smarter and less ape-like. Better yet, less dog-like, less like a follow-the-leader pack animal. Less prone to submit to the first charismatic psychopath who happens to wander onto the scene. Less prone to BREED charismatic psychopaths. Dream on. 

Yes, A Holiday Weekend

 I'm not too keen on holiday weekends, myself, except Labor Day. Labor Day is a good one. The rest I can do without. Change them to something else. This one is going to be a scorcher.

Have you noticed? The PU is not a congenial place for life of any kind. The PU stinks. That should put things in perspective. 

Heating Up And Drying Out

 That's what they say, riding a sort of meteorology roller coaster. It'll be a hot and dry Memorial Day Weekend. I would not travel anywhere on such a holiday under any circumstances. No way. When everyone is on holiday and everyone wants to go somewhere, that's the time to stay home. I've never been able to understand travel mania. Let's go someplace! What?? WHY??

This seems like a good time to do sunflowers again. 

A Holiday Weekend

 Some call it "Mumorial Day" but I never see any mums. Maybe they mean moms? And some say "Marmoreal Day" but I have yet to see any marmosets at play, with little tin drums and tiny horns. For lots of Texans it's going to be another fine time to celebrate-- something. I wonder what one SHOULD celebrate. What will Texans celebrate? I don't feel much like YIPPEE, frankly. Make no mistake: many WILL be celebrating. Maybe celebrating their 2nd Amendment rights?? But let's not go down that rathole. Too many rats down there, and a lot of them have rabies.

As usual, my preference is to be where no people are. Too many of them have rabies.
