I Like Ike... NOT!!!

We had a most unwanted visitor over the weekend, fellow by the name of Ike. Came in, raining on everyone's parade, blowing a lot of air around, and just generally trashing the place. Everyone was glad to see him go and hopes no one like him comes around here for quite awhile.
.
Now we have to clean up the mess he made and it's going to be awhile, since he even managed to knock out the power. Luckily, we have generators and the phone (and Internet) is still working. The biggest problem is finding fuel to keep the generator running.

But we'll make it, just like it did when a little b!t&h named Rita paid us a visit.

Four Months to the Day...

... was the last time I posted in this blog.

It has been a very, very busy summer.

I worked most of the summer running a tractor, cutting and baling hay, getting a really, really good tan.

I spent the first part of August moving into a new house, combining a household with my fiance. My family went from two to six overnight, which would be an overwhelming change, except that I let most of it slide off onto someone whose shoulders are much broader than mine.

And no, I'm not talking about my fiance.
