Somewhat Cold This Morning

 But it's sunny and it didn't freeze. Probably this will be winter's last swat. A bit late now for freezing temps, snow, or ice storms. 










I need to try to find a copy of D.H. Lawrence's "Apocalypse". I am currently reading, along with Sue Grafton's fine fiction, Bart Ehrman's "Armageddon". I highly recommend ALL of Bart Ehrman's work. James Tabor's too. There are so many excellent scholars out there, with so many excellent books on so many interesting subjects. That's wealth, and that sort of wealth is available to all. Public libraries are still a treasure. I buy my books but many can't afford to do that, or can't buy online, as I like to do. The book burning/book banning crowd should themselves be burned. Never burn a book, but instead burn those who would burn books.

Fine Weather

 Project complete! So good! Ahhhh! It looks good. Well worth the time, the effort, the expense. 










I "cast about" as the old idiom went, for some new thing to do... I have a few ideas.

A Little Windy

 Really not bad temps, and the wind is "up" but not that much. We could sure use more rain, rain without a barrage of hail, but chances for rain are negligible. You know, virtually everything I do now has the sole objective of maintaining the status quo and warding off change. My recent projects had that purpose. I do not welcome novelty. I have no NEED for novelty. I have no DESIRE for novelty, or change, or for anything new. Nada. Zip. Zilch. 










It's amazing sometimes, how hard it actually is, to live a frugal, quiet, uncomplicated, and private life.

More Work Done

 Finishing this project is going to be pretty easy from this point on, and for the time being I could actually consider it done. In fact, I've got two options and I'll think about which one I use. Plenty of time now. 










And our spell of terrific weather continues. The wind is picking up but that actually feels good. It isn't windy enough to raise dust.

Really Nice Weather

 I decided to take a time out. Most of the essential stuff is done. I'll start gathering what I'll need for another project soon. But there's no rush. Things are falling into place nicely.
