SUNNY, BREEZY, 38 ON THE FRONT PORCH, 54 THE PREDICTED HIGH.

DARLING WIFE OFF TO ANOTHER FUNERAL, THIS TIME IN SALLISAW.
NO BREAKFAST FOR ME :-( LOOKS LIKE BOOMERANG OR THE DONUT SHOP.

BARNCAT STILL BEGGING ON THE PORCH. SHE IS JUST TOO PEOPLE ORIENTED FOR A BARNCAT.

TIME TO FEED TROUBLE---

HI EVERYBODY---

FOGGY, 51 DEGREES GOING FOR 64 AFTER NOON. GOOD CHANCE OF RAIN, THEY SAY.

DUE TO TAKE THE JONAH CAR IN FOR BODY WORK TODAY. PAID THE RANSOM AND GOT THE BUMBLEBEE HOME YESTERDAY W/ NEW BREAK BOOSTER.

BARNCAT HAS ABANDONED HER POST AND SPENDS THE DAYS ON THE FRONT PORCH BEGGING TO COME IN. QUANDARY!

LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER TWO NAPPER TODAY. WE HAVE NOT GOT MUCH RAIN OUT OF THIS GO-ROUND, ENOUGH TO SETTLE THE DUST, NOT MUCH MORE.

GO FOR IT, Y'ALL

GOOD MORNING---

HI TEE---

CLOUDY, SPRINKLING RAIN, 58 DEGREES. SHOWERS OFF AND ON ALL DAY THEY SAY, HIGH OF 66.

TRIED TO GET THE DOG FED BEFORE THE RAIN STARTED, NO LUCK, WE BOTH GOT WET. CUTIE-CAT PUSHING HARD FOR HOUSECAT, HANGING AROUND ON THE FRONT PORCH, BEGGING TO COME IN.

BROUGHT JONAH HOME, DUE IN FOR BODY WORK TOMORROW. CAR SET OUT AT THE DEALERSHIP, GOT SPRINKLED ON, IT'S THE DIRTIEST I'VE EVER SEEN IT :-)

LOOKS LIKE A TWO NAP DAY FO' SHO', BUT WE WERE GETTING AWFUL DRY.

ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE, GURUS!

Quote:

WHERE ARE WE GOING? WHY AM IN THIS BASKET?

CLEAR, CALM, 49 AT TAHLEQUAH, GOING FOR 70 AFTER NOON. LOOKING SPRINGY AROUND HERE EVERYTHING JUST BLOOMING AWAY.

Rx AND JONAH RETRIEVAL STILL HANGING FIRE, MAYBE TODAY---

TWO DAYS OF RAIN COMING UP THEY SAY, IT'S NEEDED.

DARLING WIFE DOING WELL NOW WITH HER SLEEP MACHINE, OR AT LEAST COMPLAINING LESS.

TIME TO FEED THE POOR STARVING DOG WHO IS WAITING AT THE GATE :-)

HAVE A HAPPY WEDNESDAY!

HELLO OUT THERE---

PARTLY CLOUD, 50 DEGREES, SLIGHT BREEZE. 67 IS THE PREDICTED HIGH.

YESTERDAY NOTHING WENT RIGHT: NOTHING DEFINITIVE ON JONAH, THE BATTERY IS MARGINAL SO WILL REPLACE IT AND HOPE FOR THE BEST. HAD TAKEN THE BUMBLEBEE TO THE BEST BREAK/FRONT END MAN IN MUSKOGEE WHO DISCOVERED HE WAS TOO OLD AND FAT TO GET UNDER THE DASH. SO TOOK IT TO MY MAN AT GMC. PHARMACY STILL DRAGGING THEIR FEET ON ONE Rx. IT WAS MONDAY ALL DAMN DAY!

BUT THIS IS ANOTHER DAY. WE'LL GO VOTE AND PICKUP THE JONAH, MAYBE TAKE IT IN FOR BODY WORK.

DOG IS FED, I'M NEXT, I HOPE---

THERE ARE BETTER DAYS TO BE!

BETTER THAN MONDAY, I HOPE---

CLOUDY,CALM, AND 63 OUT FRONT, 77 AND WINDY LATER.

STILL HAVE FIRST OF THE MONTH STUFF TO FINISH UP; ALSO CHECK ON CARS IN SHOP.

DARLING WIFE MADE IT HOME WITH SOME CANDY-PECANS FROM HER TODO YESTERDAY; THEY ARE RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING :-)

KEEP UP THE FIRE, GURUS!

GOOD MORNING---

SPRING-LIKE HERE, 60 DEGREES, CLEAR AND BREEZY, HIGH OF 78 THEY SAY. THINGS BLOSSOMING, FLOWERING, THE LESSOR PERIWINKLE IS STARTING TO BLOOM. IT'S BEEN SO DRY LATELY THERE WON'T BE A REAL GOOD SHOWING. BUT THAT MEANS THE GRASS WILL BE SLOW TO GROW :-)

NOTHING ON THE AGENDA TODAY FOR ME, DARLING WIFE'S FEMALE SUPREMACY COVEN HAS BIG DOING AFTER NOON. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO LEFT OVER FINGER FOOD ITEMS.

IMMER VORWART, AMIGOS---

HI Y'ALL---

CATCHING UP ON FIRST OF MONTH STUFF THAT DIDN'T GET DONE BECAUSE OF BIRTHDAY.

THAT BIRTHSTONE VERSE DOES SOUND A BIT SPOOKY---

53 AND CLEAR AT TQ GOING FOR 74, WILL BE WINDY AS WESTERN OKLAHOMA, THEY SAY.

RUNNING LATE THIS MORNING, HUNGARY DOG IS WAITING AT THE GATE :-O

WHO ON THIS WORLD OF OURS THEIR EYES
IN MARCH FIRST OPEN SHALL BE WISE
IN DAYS OF PERIL, FIRM AND BRAVE,
AND WEAR A BLOODSTONE TO THEIR GRAVE.

BUMBLEBEE AT THE BREAK SHOP, DARLING WIFE HAD HER BD BREAKFAST AT JIMMY'S EGG, DOG FED, CAT FED, I'M FED. BUSY MORNING---ALMOST NAP TIME:-)

ITS 44 AND CLOUDY, PREDICTED HIGH IS 59. GOT JUST ENOUGH RAIN LAST NIGHT TO SETTLE THE DUST.

NOW I'M DOWN TO ONE AVAILABLE C4. HOW ARE THE MIGHTY FALLEN---
SEEMS TO BE A SHORTAGE OF MECHANICS AT THE TWO DEALERSHIPS WE DEAL WITH ALSO; WE GET TREATED WELL BECAUSE WE'VE BOUGHT CARS THERE.

GOOD DAY GENTLEMEN AND LADY---

CLOUDY, BREEZY, 41 DEGREES GOING FOR 52 AFTERNOON. MAY RAIN, THEY SAY.

HAD TO GO OVER TO MUSKOGEE EARLY FOR AN UNNECESSARY LIVER SCAN. AT LEAST THEY GOT ME IN AND OUT QUICK. STARTING THE DAY W/O COFFEE IS MOST UNSATISFACTORY :-|

TODAY IS #1 GRANDDAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY. SHE'S SEVEN :-) FINISHING HER LAST YEAR OF MEDICAL RESIDENCY. PRECOCIOUS CHILD.

TOMORROW IS DARLING WIFE'S BD; I'M JUST GOING TO FALL BACK ON FLOWERS---

DOG IS FED, I'M FED, BARNCAT IS NEXT.

ALWAYS FORWARD BUT SOMETIMES CIRCULAR---

SAD TO HEAR THAT ABOUT SOUTHWEST. IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS THEY WERE TRANS -TEXAS, a.k.a TREETOP AIRLINES, AND WOULD HAVE A DRINK IN YOUR HAND BEFORE THE WHEELS CAME UP.
VERY POPULAR WITH THE ARMY AT FT HOOD,

WINTER STRIKES BACK: 24 DEGREES AND WINDY, 46 FOR THE HIGH.
BUT THE SUN IS SHINING :-)

WESTERN OKLAHOMA IS BURNING UP, 30,000 ACRES THEY SAY, HOMES DESTROYED.

CHECKED ON RED CAR, MECHANIC HAS BEEN UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. HIS THEORY IS THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR DID NOT GET SHUT ALL THE WAY AND INTERIOR LIGHTS STAYED ON TO DRAIN THE BATTERY. HE CAN FIND NO PARASITIC DRAIN.
HE'LL KEEP IT THIS WEEK AND SEE IF THE BATTERY STAYS UP AS IT HAS SO FAR.
CAN'T DECIDE IF THIS IS GOOD NEWS OR BAD---

TODAY, NOTHING ON THE AGENDA. NOT A GOOD DAY TO BE OUTSIDE!

KEEP UP THE FIRE!

HELLO OUT THERE---

A MAJOR MILESTONE: CUTEY THE BARNCAT KILLED A MOUSE. SHE DISPLAYED IT NEAR HER FOOD DISH. SAVING IT FOR DESERT, MAYBE?

LIFE AM GRISHEIM: CONTINUAL EXCITEMENT :-)

Education counts:

When I was young I decided I wanted to be a doctor so I took the entrance exam to go to medical school. One of the questions asked to rearrange the letters PNEIS into the name of an important human body part which is most useful when erect. Those who answered "spine” are doctors today. The rest of us are sending jokes by email.

"OH WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MORNING" CLEAR, 68, LIGHT BREEZE. THE PREDICTED HIGH IS 84, IN FEBRUARY ???

ALL WENT WELL WITH THE CARDIAC FOLKS. I LIKE THEM; THEY GET YOU IN AND OUT WITHOUT MUCH WAITING, EXPEDITIOUSLY ONE MIGHT SAY :-) BEING ON TIME FOR AN APPOINTMENT AND THEN HAVING TO WAIT IS A PET PEEVE; THE LONGER I WAIT THE GROUCHIER I GET.

AUTO ROTATION TODAY, HARVEY UP. THE BUMBLEBEE'S BREAKS ARE FADING, HAVE TO GET THAT SEEN ABOUT.

I'LL GO OVER TO MUSKOGEE AND CHECK ON THE JONAH CAR.

MY BEST TO YOU, GURUS!

OFF TO DOCTOR'S IN TAHLEQUAH---

HAZY, 60 DEGREES, SLIGHT BREEZE THIS MORNING, PREDICTED HIGH 77 :-O HAVE WE SKIPPED MARCH AND GONE STRAIGHT TO APRIL?

DOG IS FED, HOPE I'M NEXT :-)

IT'S WEDNESDAY, TOMMY, AND I KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS: TIME TO FEED THE DOG :-)

ANYBODY DOING BUSINESS IN NEW YORK BETTER GET OUT WHILE THEY CAN.

GONNA BE A BRIGHT, SUNSHINY DAY:-) ENJOY!

GREETINGS---

HOME AGAIN, FIVE HOURS WINDSHELD TIME, TWO HOUR SERVICE.
GLAD WE WENT. SEEMS THE LONG DELAY WAS DUE TO GETTING THE GRANDKIDS IN FROM AROUND AND ABOUT. WE WERE FRIENDS SINCE THE NINTH GRADE.

CLOUDY AND COOL, 50 ON THE FRONT PORCH AND WON'T GET MUCH WARMER THEY SAY. MAY CLEAR OFF SOME BUT GET COLDER, FREEZE TONIGHT.

BARN CAT COMING HOME TODAY, OVERHAUL COMPLETE. THIS FREE CAT HAS BEEN A BIT EXPENSIVE, EVEN WITH DAUGHTER-DISCOUNT.

NO SXS, THE ARGO HAS EIGHT DRIVEN WHEELS AND IS AMPHIBIOUS.
BODY LIKE A BIG BATH TUB, IT WILL GO JUST ABOUT ANYPLACE.
(MY HUNTING BUDDY ONCE THREATENED TO GET OUT AND WALK BECAUSE OF SOME OF THE PLACES I WAS GOING) IT WAS THE WENCH ON FRONT THAT DID THE DAMAGE. MADE IN CANADA, GUESS CANADIANS ARE TOO SMART TO START IT IN GEAR :-)

JONAH GOES IN FOR COSMETIC SURGERY (BUTT LIFT) ON MONDAY.

CALM AND SUNNY, 42 ON THE FRONT PORCH, 48 AT TAHLEQUAH. 64 AFTERNOON THEY SAY.

NOTHING DONE YESTERDAY BUT DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS, AND MORE TODAY FOR DW. I DON'T EXPECT MUCH FROM THE MEDICAL ESTABLISHMENT AND THEY USUALLY LIVE UP TO MY EXPECTATIONS.

GOT AN APPLE PIE FROM MY VALENTINE. APPLE PIE WITH CHEESE MELTED ON TOP FOR BREAKFAST, YUM!

HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING WITH THE JONAH, MAYBE TODAY---

BEST TO YOU, AMIGOS.

BUENOS DIAS, Y'ALL---

SUNNY AND COLD, 45 IN TAHLEQUAH, HIGH TO BE 64. IT’S ASH WEDNESDAY AND THE DAFFODILS ARE STARTING TO SHOW YELLOW, LENT LILIES.

GOT AHEAD OF THE POWER CURVE; DARLING WIFE OFF SWEETS AND THE HOUSE IS ALREADY FULL OF FLOWERS SO I TOOK HER OUT FOR SUPPER LAST NIGHT AT OUR FAVORITE ITALIAN PLACE. THOUGHT TO BEAT THE CROWD, BUT THE CROWD HAD THE SAME IDEA 😊

ABOUT THE RED CAR: DON’T KNOW WHETHER TO CALL IT FRIENDLY FIRE OR SELF-INFLICTED WOUND. SWITCHING CARS, TOMATO WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF ARGO IN THE BARN, STARTED ARGO TO MOVE IT. SOME IDIOT HAD LEFT IT IN GEAR; IT RAMMED THE REAR OF THE CAR, BROKE THE UPPER REAR PANEL, THE MIDDLE TAIL LIGHT IS HANGING DOWN INSIDE SOMEPLACE, THE INBOARD PASS SIDE LIGHT IS LOOSE. I’LL HAVE TO GET THOSE SECURED/ REMOUNTED WHILE I LOCATE SOMEONE TO DO FIBERGLASS REPAIR.

THIS CAR HAS A NEW NAME: JONAH.

SUNNY AND COLD HERE TOO, 34 DEGREES GOING FOR 59 THEY SAY.

GOT A DR APT AT 1999 HR, "FOLLOW UP", MILKING MEDICARE?

MORE BAD LUCK WITH THE RED CAR, MORE LATER.

GOOD MORNING---

THAT WON'T BUFF OUT---

WINDY, 33 AND DRIPPY THIS MORNING; THE WEATHER WIZARDS SAY IT WILL CLEAR OFF AFTER NOON BUT THEIR PROMISES CAN'T BE DEPENDED UPON :-| NO SNOW TO BE SEEN HERE, SEEMS IT WAS MOSTLY NORTH AND WEST OF US.

AUTO ROTATION DAY, I'LL JUST WAIT TILL IT STOPS DRIPPING. THE TOMATO WILL BE UP AND I'LL HAVE TO REPLACE ALL THE ODDS AND ENDS I TOOK OUT DURING "REPAIR". ALSO NEEDS A WASH BUT THE WEATHER WILL HAVE TO BE WARMER FOR THAT.

DW WAS ACTIVE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY THEN COMPLAINED HER RIBS HURT---IMAGINE THAT :-)

TEE, HOPE YOUR BIG NIGHT WENT WELL AND YOU WON LOTS OF MONEY.

GO GET 'EM GURUS!

A DREARY START TO THE WEEK---
