it's a convoluted mess
January. 2023. Alright then. Joe has been gone two months already. It still feels impossible. Maybe it always will. In lieu of more depressing grief talk for the moment, I’m going to talk about snow and other innocuous things. Hey, guess what? … It has been blizzard-ing for two days. We are now far above average for snowfall so far this winter so that’s good news for the gawd-awful drought we’ve been in. However, it’s… Keep reading…Time on my hands…
It’s April 1st. We’ll just pretend the 1st doesn’t really exist because people are somehow even more unfathomably stupid and gullible every gad damn year on this date and I just want them all to go away. Right then.

We went from a Polar Vortex with “historic” wind chills to the snowiest February on record. It’s like after a few weirdly mild winters Minnesota is all ZOMG I REMEMBER HOW TO WINTER GUYS LET ME SHOW YOU IN CASE YOU FORGOT TOO. And everybody is just Slow your roll, FFS. Remember the blizzards you dumped in April last year? We’ve still got two months here for snow to fall. We’re running out of room… Keep reading…Far from over…
Wednesday night I heard a weird noise that Bob thought sounded like wind rattling the house. Upon further inspection I found WATER DRIPPING FROM THE LIVING ROOM WINDOW. Oh hey, remember the Mystery Leak To End All Mystery Leaks when we had the whole front wall and half the ceiling of our living room torn out trying to find the damn leak and closing on our house was almost delayed and OH MY GOD CAN… Keep reading…Less than perfect…
