We decided to go on a reading trip down to Pullman for lunch…Cougarburgers, best hamburgers in the PNW! and a huckleberry-peanut butter shake, as if our sins of yesterday weren’t enough. We knew it was heading for snow. It’s a 2 hour trip. And the...

Jane three weeks ago spent literally hours (about 4) on the phone with Comcast tech figuring out they’d sent us a bad gateway…this governs our phone, our tv, and our internet: and provides connectivity for our housenet. We’re not wired down to the...

Nap attacks and writing… Ever had one of those sessions where your brain just goes into a near catatonic desire for sleep when you’re trying your hardest to think? Go with it. That’s lizard-brain trying to communicate. The hind-brain talks to us when...

We have an Epson Workforce 840 printer… which has been helpful—it allegedly slices, dices, and makes coffee. But not that well..and occasionally it just really screws up. The only thing it does well is talk to all the computers in the house via the net. It...

the fish food I went after. I had to drive about a 7 mile round trip to go back after it. We are, however, supplied with New Years’ Dinner and New Year’s Day dinner, and breakfast for a month, and supper for at least 2 weeks. Blow wind, come...
