Another lazy Sunday has come and gone. The sun kept behind the clouds, rains misted the ground and I stayed in bed and read about Socrates while listening to country blues. Recommended. Today is the one year anniversary of the Tree Of Life Synagogue shooting, where 11 worshipers - including a couple Holocaust survivors - were gunned … Continue reading Sunday, October 27, 2019

Well, the Big Wind blew through Northeast Mississippi all day. Liked to have blown us clean off the map, too. The TV news said wind speed in Tupelo got up to 71 miles per hour. That is hurricane speed, friends and neighbors, and I've never heard blowing that hard without there being one. The mayor of Tupelo, … Continue reading Saturday, October 26, 2019

The rain's moved in and it's been coming down all day. Perfectly suited for extreme napping. However, Tropical Storm Olga has kicked up in the Gulf and is heading our way with more rain this weekend. Fine by me. I've gotten further into When Gravity Fails and things are finally starting to get moving. I don't mean … Continue reading Friday, October 25, 2019

I was telling both the Therapist and the Psych Doc that the most difficult part of all this was coming up with the opening paragraph. It's not exactly a lede for a newspaper story or an opening paragraph for an essay, because whatever this is, it isn't either of those. Anyway. Another day of very … Continue reading Thursday, October 24, 2019

Okay, let's do this. Let's get started. Let me tell you, friends and neighbors, happiness is cleaning out your Medicine Bag and contemplating the dry months to come but finding one last bowlful of joy. I'm going to deviate from what I usually do and talk about a video games series. Don't worry, it's pertinent. … Continue reading Wednesday, October 23, 2019

After yesterday's big storms, it has cleared out and gotten pretty cool hereabouts. Beautiful weather, though. I've said it before about New Orleans, but Fall in Northeast Mississippi is when it shines, as well. What Daddy would call "football playing weather". Did the Therapist thing today. She's of the opinion that since I'm writing, going … Continue reading Tuesday, October 22, 2019

The much-promised thunderstorms we were promised have moved and are slowly easing along. We've gotten plenty of rain but nothing like the nasty weather Dallas or even Shelby County saw. Otis is pouting at me because I won't let him go outside. I like rainy days. Always have. I don't know if I could really tell you why, but … Continue reading Monday, October 21, 2019

Sunday morning coming down. First one in a long time without a net, and it's not so bad. Granted, I spent most of the day reading Ambrose Bierce, watching the Saints, and napping, so what do I know. Tomorrow will mark five months I've been doing... whatever this is. I'm thinking once I hit six months, I'm going … Continue reading Sunday, October 20, 2019

Not real sure where or what to start with today. It's been a pretty lazy day, Saturday notwithstanding. Even Otis was ready come back in and go to bed by the time I'd brought the newspaper back up the hill. But that's where we find ourselves today. It's not a complaint, mind you. I am … Continue reading Saturday, October 19, 2019
