Big Differences!

 Now, we are getting nearly 50 degree F temperature differences between morning lows and daytime highs. Truly a desert climate. Maybe a slight chance of rain a week from now. Maybe. 





Well, I predicted a clusterfuck and I was right. Sometimes I do not like being right.

Cool Mornings Hot Days Continue

 No rain no rain no rain. Pray for rain! Praying for peace is, as always, a complete waste of time. But sooner or later it will rain and you might as well enjoy the delusion that your prayers made a difference, and if you've been casting spells you can enjoy the delusion that your "magic" made a difference. And so it goes. I'll water again today. Because the rain is staying away. 





By the way, is Uri Geller still alive? Is he still bending spoons? Is he still praying for peace?

More Reality?

 Retreat?

Does that translate into losing?

I wouldn't expect any denizen of the insane asylum we know as MAGALAND to get any of it. 

Same Old Same Old. Again.

 I've decided to do things a little differently. It has to do with my exercise routine. I hate going to the gym but I must. But I don't think I need to go as often. I'm going to try two intense sessions per week and use more of my own weights here at home. In the gym I'll concentrate on what I can't do at home. At home I'll concentrate on what I can do at home. Makes sense to me. Warm but not what I would call hot, given our low humidity. I've started watering. I've got stuff coming up and I'm going to have a somewhat limited jungle this time, but there will be enough for the atmosphere I crave. In past years it reached the point that a machete would have been helpful. A bit much. It's also time for chilled white wine, rather than the reds I consume during the winter. So, prepping for the coming summer months, and hoping for rainfall.





Meanwhile, MAGA world dreams that it is "winning". Dream on.

Cool Mornings

 Cool mornings and very warm to hot days. There seems to be a news blackout. I guess we are not supposed to know how bad things really are. That will be tough to conceal as time goes on. Odds are, there is no winning. Losing seems more likely. But wait and see. I think we are having some real problems here, regarding lack of rainfall. When will that change, I wonder. 





Yesterday St. Patrick's day, but not much green going on here. Bone dry.
