Stops and starts

Today I'll return to work. I have a couple of things that I need to complete by the end of the day tomorrow, along with a few more that I'd like to get done. Sandra wasn't feeling well yesterday, either, and came home early. She reports that she's better this morning and will go to work. What a fun couple we are.

The water in the birdbath is frozen for the third morning in a row. Sandra covered the pansies that's she's planted along the driveway. We're expecting temperatures below freezing every night through the weekend. Everything warms quickly once the sun reaches it.

Apparently having solved all of their other problems, the Wisconsin might allow cat hunting. I know several cat owners, peace-loving folks, who would consider drastic action.

One has to know a lot about a lot, just to get along. We had to fill out some paperwork for the conservation commission. The form asked for the latitude and longitude of our camp. It sort of makes sense, given that the town doesn't even have its own ZIP code. Nevertheless, it's not the kind of information that you keep in your head, unlike, say, One hen, two ducks, three squawking geese, .... The commissioners were good-humored and agreed that they could find the proper with other map information we provided. BTW, we're somewhere around 72.1W, 42.5N.

I know of people who wrote college papers for other people as a way to generate some cash. It was hard work, because you really had to research and write the papers. Automation has greatly simplified that work.
