Do you remember when you joined X? I do!

Okay, I really don’t, but I thought the idea of reaching ten years (perhaps I should say “enduring”) was, ah, interesting. Thanks to all of you out there for being my friends, IRL or virtual.

Why I’m not on social media much today…well, the pergola my husband & I installed 10 yrs ago, made of insect-resistant lumber, was previously infested w/termites & now has carpenter bees & scorpions nesting inside. My work thus far (yes, I have to fix the back fence too).

Oh, I see a couple of restaurants I’ll be trying out. Peach Cobbler is on the food pyramid, right? We’ll see if it’s as good as my dad’s. 😎 communityimpact.com/san-antonio/no…

Just finished handing out the last giant bag of candy and turned off the porch light. Counting the candy and dividing by two pieces per child gives us a figure of 730 trick-or-treaters this year, down a bit from 2022, likely due to cold weather. Some fabulous costumes this year!

Friggin frackquakes. Who says they’re “not felt?” Oil and Gas? Been there. Done that. They’re not harmless and they’re not invisible/unnoticed. 4.1-magnitude earthquake rattles Karnes County on Thursday; 4th quake this week via KSAT ksat.com/news/local/202…

My favorite moment from the NBA Hall of Fame Enshrinement, as former Spurs asst coach/current WNBA coach/former WNBA star Becky Hammon gave her acceptance speech. Coach Pop is the best, simply the best.

This is what a water reservoir that is part of Austin’s water supply looks like right now, folks. Not the first time. Not the last time.

So I’m in Rockport, having just taken the trash outside, and I saw the most marvelous thing—two fireflies. I haven’t seen those here since 1962, and I haven’t seen them at all, anywhere, since 1993. Kind of remarkable.

Oh, I shouldn’t have looked at this. I was busy convincing myself that it was still cooler here than other places in Tx. Heat-index-wise, it’s hotter. Much.
