It's obviously cold...all three dogs found the right place to poo and got back to the deck in record time.
Yeesh, that wind will cut right through ya. Apparently even when in a fur coat.

Yesterday I called my closest cousin in age. Though I am five years older, he and I loved being at our common grandparents' farm when we were kids and we remained fairly close for a long time. Then geography kept us apart as much as did his born againedness. Last time I saw him was in 2009 when home for my dad's memorial service and I picked up on the god speak.
I am sorry that his second wife, who he was with for 30 years, died. I only met her one time but I feel bad for him and I know his two kids were close to her.
But...we talked for 15 minutes and he brought up Jesus, religion, and prayer roughly 857 times. UGH.
I remember him when he was a fun guy. I am glad he quit drinking...people used to call him Otis (Andy Griffith show reference) it was that bad even as an older teen. But he switched his alcohol and cocaine addictions to food and god. He is now overweight and preachy. I suppose whatever works for him but it was an exhausting call.

Caught myself thinking about bed and I have not even started getting ready for work yet.

There will be no afterlife, for most people. Most people will simply cease to exist. Some especially repugnant spirits (including me) will be sent to the nether world, to be tortured for an undetermined length of time. I'm a masochist though so it's no big deal.

It appears the cold front arrived. The temperature dropped 16 degrees in less than an hour and it isn't done yet.

How cold is it you ask? I don't think we had a fire in the fireplace last winter....we do now!
