Tomorrow will have a high in the 60s. The next morning will be below freezing with highs in the 40s the rest of the week. A white Christmas is now unlikely, but temperatures will stay below freezing most of that week.

Beef found
After three weeks my beef guy called yesterday. I didn’t notice because I gave up on him and don’t check my phone or even carry it with me unless I am expecting a call. My quarter should be here Tuesday night. In the meantime I started to fill up my freezers. Guess it is timeContinue reading “Beef found”
Back to the grind
After a long weekend, I have to go back to work tonight. The nice thing about taking two days off at the beginning of the week is coming back to a three day workweek. The two days off after will almost be like another vacation.
White Christmas
The best definition of White Christmas was an inch of snow on the ground on Christmas Day. The year I moved to Kansas it snowed the day after Thanksgiving and was still on the ground after New Year’s Day. I was out of town over Christmas, so I missed it. There has never been aContinue reading “White Christmas”
Feels like spring
Temperatures are staying above freezing and I got my first seed catalog yesterday. Baker Creek is the closest big mail order seed company to me. I have to watch the budget this year. The garbage bill arrived. My garbage bill is over 70 dollars a month, billed quarterly in advance. I hate to think howContinue reading “Feels like spring”
How not to get publicity

In the latest debacle, the AFL decided to release the Round One schedule. During the 2020 season the AFL had to release three weeks atContinue reading “How not to get publicity”
100 days until footy starts
The AFL season starts March 16 with Carlton taking on Richmond. Geelong plays Collingwood the following evening at the MCG. Normally the defending premiers would kick off the season in a rematch of the previous year’s Grand Final. The AFL wanted the Cats to play on Friday night and who better than against the teamContinue reading “100 days until footy starts”
Christmas Bone US
In the last quarter century, the Christmas bonus has gone the way of the typewriter. I have gone from a week’s pay to a 20 dollar gift certificate to a extra discount. At Wally World we will download a code to get a one time 15% discount on most items in the store. I haveContinue reading “Christmas Bone US”
Vacation
At Wally World you can roll your vacation and 0ersonal time over to next year. I have a week of vacation time left. I will take a couple of days off this week and roll the rest over to next year. Even staying at home is better than having to go to work.
Big day in sports
I won’t have to hear much about soccer for another four years as the US got smoked by the Netherlands 3-1. In football Kansas State won the Big 12 championship game, which is like being the prettiest girl at an all-ugly contest. Locally, Coffeyville lost its NJCAA playoff game to Hutchinson 38-7. Only three moreContinue reading “Big day in sports”
