Weird, Loud, Dark...

 

Short post.  I woke to it being extremely dark & crashing.  Thunderstorms were underway.   I'll post this now, in case the net or power crap out later.  I'd say more tomorrow, but it could still be doing this all weekend.  

Take care.

Little Off Morning...

 

I don't know why, but for sometime, the locals have decided Thursday morning is the time to make noise.  There's been so much racket on these mornings that I'm waking somewhere around 6:30 & then finally falling back asleep.  Of course, then I oversleep.  

This morning was no different.  There were crashing thunderstorms, someone left there puppy out under a tarped pin, the neighbors were getting about, etc...  It was a lot of noise.  I got woken a lot & then finally did sleep longer than I planned.  Now, I'm a little out of it as I try to wake up.

Thursday mornings have turned into a bit of hell.  Hope your day goes well.

Day After...

 

The 4th has passed.  I'm sure we'll hear some more fireworks, but the bulk of it should be over.  It was pretty, but I'm glad it's over, the smoke was getting to be a lot.   

I found this article dealing with Native Americans & Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS (PACHA).  It's a series of videos on the matter hosted by HIV.gov.  It was interesting. 

Hope everyone's holiday went well.  Take care.

Happy 4th...

 

The 4th is here & so is the noise & smoke.  While the fireworks can be fun to look at.  They're also really loud & smelly.  Some of the smoke off them, just stinks.  I know they have some sulfur components, but this is worse than the bad egg smell of sulfur.

While they're here, we'll try to enjoy them.  It'd be nice have a kind with less smoke & stink.  Still, they are pretty & make fun memories. 

Whatever you're doing today, take care & have fun.

Bill Time...

 

The 1st of the month stuff starts today.  We'll handle what bills we can & this finish them later in the week.  Things will be a little off with a midweek mail holiday for the 4th.  Other than that, it should be a normal start of the month.

Take care.

Bang, Lights, Smoke, Litter...

 

Well July is here & since the 4th is midweek, some people have started with the fireworks early.  There've some pops here & there over the last couple of weeks, but nothing big.  That changed last night.  The neighbors had people over & celebrated.  They had people over & had a small, yet loud, celebration.  

Fireworks are loud, but they bring people joy for a moment.  I'm not going to bring down their party.   I was that kid, running with fireworks & having a blast.  It was a small happiness I had as a kid.  I'm sure plenty of adults wanted to take it away from me back then.  I'm sure plenty of people want to stop it now.  Too many people delight in crapping on other people's moments of joy.  I wish the most tedious life on that kind.  

Try not to be a Karen or a Bruce & don't bring people down.  Everyone deserves their moments.  Hell, we need them just to survive.

Take care, Happy 4th.

Hello July...

 

Last night wasn't as hot at the night before, but it was more humid.  I woke to a just a hot & even muggier morning.  It's not been the start I wanted for July, but here we are.

Instead of a shining face.  July decided to start off as a sweaty armpit.  Thanks, nobody needed that.  It's about as hot as it's supposed today.  It might rain.  Our luck is it won't & we'll be stuck with the hellish humidity.  The weather should have to remain within 60 - 90 with reasonable humidity.  All other weather events would be by petition only.   

Well that's it.  Hello July.
