A bit. You get so angry it worries me sometimes.

In other news, the weather's calm and aside from the High Wind Warning for late Saturday/Sunday, there are no Watches, Warnings or Advisories out right now. I expect that to change.....

Heading out. My eyes are burning and both eyelids are twitching. NOT a good sign...

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley  Smiley

Greetings.
Skywise has the day off so we've been busy.
The expected "weather" is finally moving in so we're battened down for the night. I just hope that someone told the wind that it's supposed to slow down once it hits the county line......

The internet is being singularly uncooperative tonight so I'm going to say "goodnight" while I can. The weather is quiet here so far and I'm hoping for a peaceful night.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Afternoon.
We went into town and were nearly blown away. The wind is really strong today. There are a lot of power lines down but fortunately, we haven't lost power. The sun has finally come out and with the wind, things should start drying out quickly.

A piece of the Chinese Willow in the Old House's front yard came down on the porch roof. Skywise got it off and says he can fix it.
The wind is still howling and is expected to do so until around 10 pm. I hope someone told the wind.
My nerves are shot.

The wind has finally died enough that I can't hear it. I'm hoping for a restful night's sleep with nothing bouncing off the  the roof. I'm going to head out now and get started on that.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley Smiley

Afternoon.
We went into town for lunch and to pick up a few things. When we got back there was a big box on the steps Smiley containing curtains for two rooms and four books. However, the big thing is the trailer with two huge spools of cable parked in the yard near the house. It looks like the internet line from the pole to the house will be installed today.  Smiley
It looks to be a good day......

Well, the internet guys packed up and left a few hours ago without doing anything. Still, I'm encouraged that they are taking advantage of the reasonably good weather.

Boring internet but Moonie and I did get the new curtains up in my bedroom.

Afternoon.
I've been sitting here paying bills. *sigh* We had no place to go this morning so I slept in a little. Then Warrior Princess wanted to be petted so that delayed my getting out of bed! She finally let me up just in time to, you guessed it, pay bills.

Afternoon.
We're back from town -- had to pay the electric bill and pick up a few things.
Settling down for a quiet afternoon.
Now to catch up.

We're now expecting a few inches of snow on Sunday. No one is willing to guess how much. I'll top off our supplies on Friday...
Right now, I'm going to get prone. My knees hurt.

Well, I got prone and since I didn't sleep well last night, I napped longer than usual. Since then I've worked on Book 4, figuring out the ins and outs of insurrection. Unless I get inspired or find some really good reference, most of the nuts and bolts of revolution will happen "off camera".
Changing the female antagonist's backstory has gotten the story moving again but I still have details to work out and rough edges to smooth down. It would probably would be easier if I were writing what is now called "erotica" but was known as "soft/semi-hard core porn" back in the day. I have no taste for it although judging by what Amazon keeps trying to sell me through my FB newsfeed it seems to be a "thing" now. No accounting for (bad/no) taste I guess and the "authors" are apparently cranking it out at speed. I wonder how much of it is "cut and pasted" from other authors' work. There's apparently a lot of that going on now.

Skywise hasn't called yet but my eyes are burning and my brain is semi-fried so I'm heading out.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley Smiley

Afternoon.
And the next day.... it snowed. Nothing heavy so far and if a blizzard was expected, I'd have heard about it.
We got our produce run out of the way. Skywise has left for work and I'm in for the day.

We got enough snow to mostly cover the debris in the yard. I haven't decided if it calls for my hiking boots or not.

I continue to puzzle over my two writing problems. I haven't found anything about how to write an insurrection plot so "trial and error" may be the order of the day. Still trying out various ways to bring the female antagonist into the story....

Greetings.
Rough morning. I'm going to take painkiller and get prone. Hopefully, I'll do better once the painkiller kicks in.

Well, the painkiller hasn't helped much. I guess I'll have to switch to another for a while. Unfortunately, I'm out of my alternate so I'm out of luck until I can get more. *sigh*

Skywise hasn't called yet but I hope he will soon. I'm sleepy  Smiley And I'd like to go to bed but it's pointless until he's home. I can't sleep at night unless I know he's home -- unless I'm blind from exhaustion which I'm not at the moment. Still, I'm heading out.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley Smiley

Greetings.
Back from Saturday errands.
Found an additional place to buy milk which means we won't have to get it in town tomorrow.
Got painkiller which I'll be taking directly. You know the pain is bad when it disrupts your balance and the leg hurts while you are sitting down.

Painkillers and getting prone helped. I'm able to walk a straight line without pain being plain on my face.
The snow has not yet started but it will before morning if the weatherpersons know what they're talking about.

No snow yet but it is out there to the west. We'll see how it is in the morning.

Since I'm tired, nap notwithstanding, I'm heading out.
