Leaf it to me.

Cloudy, waiting on rain and wind today. Mild temps in the 50’s. What do you do when you are a very tight budget and need to fill some garden beds? You use what is available naturally as much as possible that you can get for free. That may look different wherever you are. For instance,ContinueContinue reading “Leaf it to me.”

Welcome to 1.5

1.5 is the magical number climate scientists agree was a number to avoid. It wasn’t officially expected to happen until 2040. But I know it would be quicker. Ever since Al Gore attempted to bring up the issue of climate change, there was a very concerted effort by just about everyone to “scale back” theContinueContinue reading “Welcome to 1.5”

Just Blows You Away

This here states perfectly the idiocy of how certain people “think.” They can’t understand the concept that the atmosphere is heating due to human behavior and has been since the industrial revolution. But they believe that somehow humans are changing the weather with tech aiming weather around at a whim. Science is fake! Climate scienceContinueContinue reading “Just Blows You Away”

I’m not the only one who sees.

https://www.facebook.com/will.tveit/videos/858717552755116 I tried to embed the video, but a link is the best I could do. Stupidity is right. It’s dumbfounding. I’ve talked to smarter people then I in person to ask if they thought I was over reacting. One in particular is a lady i work for who helped invent the super computer. She’sContinueContinue reading “I’m not the only one who sees.”

Be Silent, Shut Up

Be a good little citizen as your neighbors get marched off to the gas chambers. As they get rounded up and deported or moved to concentration camps. We’ve seen this before in history and yet so many are willing to see it again, and are celebrating it. They celebrate a “man” who stood on stageContinueContinue reading “Be Silent, Shut Up”

Mexico?

No, I will not go to Mexico. My landlords and the owner of this property are considering fleeing the United States after this latest fiasco. A dictator who promises to put the hurt on people exactly like them. And honestly, I wouldn’t blame them if they did. But that would also leave me in aContinueContinue reading “Mexico?”

I can no longer worry

We as Americans are truly fucked. And I don’t care if you are offended by my cussing. Some situations are warranted. THIS IS ONE OF THEM. I no longer can worry or care about a large population here. Because they have spit in the face of all that could be good and just. They votedContinueContinue reading “I can no longer worry”

Just been watching-

It’s been a couple months since I’ve really posted anything. I was tempted, considering all the crazy weather disasters that have been happening but I didn’t feel like it was sensitive to those who are suffering, lost, or dead to have talked about it so soon after the event. I know the people affected inContinueContinue reading “Just been watching-“

Fall Veggies

I spent a few minutes today weeding Gary’s garden and planting seeds for the fall where I had little spaces to squeeze them in. I prefer to plant intensively and not leave open spaces for weeds to grow. Still, I will be fighting weeds in this garden for a while because there are bindweeds andContinueContinue reading “Fall Veggies”

Dear Dad: Middle Village in Chinook

Dear Dad, do you remember that little spot along the road you wanted to stop at every time we passed it but for one reason or another we never did? Today your dog Rider and I did stop this time. I kick myself for not taking you there sooner, when you were still breathing. YouContinueContinue reading “Dear Dad: Middle Village in Chinook”
