As Cold as Ice (Because it is ice!)

That's an impressive icicle!

Tuesday was spent hanging out with the grandkids and digging Blue¹ out of the ice. The weather guessers are postulating yet another big snow storm this coming weekend. The weekend we had planned on heading north. The Missus Herself has decided that we will travel on Friday. In order to "miss" the snow. Maybe an inch here, maybe a foot up there.

Who knows?

I sure don't, but she has spoken and I can but obey.

I tried pointing out that we have a generator here, we don't there ...

I fought the law and the law won.

Remember the book, Almost a Lifetime, ya know, the one I keep promising to get published, some day?

Yeah, that one. Still in the plan. However, as I like writing more than I do researching "how to publish a book," I wrote a prequel to Almost a Lifetime. Which goes by the working title of The Prequel. Yes, I will eventually change the name.

I'm editing that one now, because I want to write more. And I will. I'm looking at a trilogy, maybe more. Depends on my mood, mostly.

You can read both books in their raw form here on the blog. One you can find here, the other you cannot, doing all those links takes time dontcha know, and back then I had a regular job, and not much time to do all those links.

Bottom line, you'll have to hunt for it, start here, that's the first chapter of the prequel. I'd help more, but I'm incredibly lazy, more so since I retired. C'est la vie!

Things are nice and quiet here at Chez Tuttle et Nuke for the most part. The boys get a little rowdy at times (no school yet to help them burn off energy) but hey, that's what I get paid for. (What's that? I don't get paid? This is volunteer work? Okay, they're good boys, I can live with that.)

The bruises will heal and perhaps teach this old man not to try and keep up with a five year old and a three year old. I'll know when I'm really old, that's when the boys beat me in a fair fight! (No, I don't play fair now, they've got me outnumbered!)

And now the driveway is clear!

Ciao!



¹ Blue is my 2020 Honda Pilot, a fine vehicle she is. She is blue in color, hence the name. Clever lad ain't I?

Just be polite... that's all I ask. (For Buck)
Can't be nice, go somewhere else...
