It’s 38 degrees outside and, as they say, feels a lot colder because of the wind from the normally balmy Southwest.
Enough to make you want to avoid doing anything outside, even though it’s otherwise a nice day, sunny with clear skies.

Of Few Words
My 10 year old grandson Bob has recently started sending emails, and it’s disconcerting, because he writes EXACTLY like his soon to be 36 year old father.
In fact, it’s difficult to tell them apart.
I got to spend some quality time with the 3 grandkids last night while P&B were at a meeting.
We didn’t do anything special, just a run to the library to pick up Bob from his book group, then a stop at Subway for supper.
Hardware Days
Hardware and network config are the two least favorite parts of my work, and for the last day and a half, I’ve been mired in both.
Break in the Weather
It’s that time of year that the weather gets blamed for colds and other “bugs”, as if sudden changes in temperature make people get sick.
After a couple day spell of freezing cold weather, it’s been mild for the last two days.
Second Anniversary
The first post on a Blog for All Seasons was exactly two years ago.
As was the case then, I spent a good part of today with my grandkids, and as was the case then, one happens to be 8: my granddaughter, Emmeline.
Unshopping List
In my last post, I chided myself for poor planning by booking a service appointment for my beloved truck on Black Friday at a location near the big mall in Hyannis.
When I reached the dealership, though, traffic was normal or even a little lighter than normal.
This would have been a great opportunity to do some shopping, but to tell you the truth, I have no list and no plans to buy much of anything this season.
Black Friday
Some time early this morning, I realized that I’ve booked an appointment for an oil change this afternoon at a dealership directly across the street from the Cape Cod Mall.
A slight revision in plan might be in order.
Thanksgiving 2005
For the first time in countless years, I’m actually looking forward to Thanksgiving.
Imperial James
Pete and Bonnie’s youngest, James, is blessed with extraordinary social skills. Even at his tiny age (5 1/2), he has some of the most refined interpersonals of anyone I’ve ever met.
