home alone---Oct.26-Nov.19

Gale has taken off with Doug Smith and two other buddies to explore parts unknown. Mainly Colorado and Utah.
will be gone 19 days and I am alone for the first time for this amount of time in a great many years. At first a sense of freedom like shopping and not fixing meals but then sets in the loneliness--- eating and watching t.v. and general malaise of thinking of things to do and doing nothing. A good widow I would not make.
I will talk myself into getting busy and will accomplish a lot but still not the same.

two new words for Piper (age 14months)
Thanks you and cracker!

How much hotter can it get. 108 actual temp today!

Getting cabin fever!
To many days inside with hot weather.

Auction for Gale, farmer's market and staying cool.
