My this and that.<br /><br />Jake and I went to vote for an open city council position. I don't know why the previous council person couldn't fulfill their term. Three choices--a former Marine who's crazy (not because he's a vet but because he's just crazy and yes we know him), a w woman who creeped around in her car at odd hours, stopping in front of houses and making notes whose activity was then posted on the Nextdoor app (and was confronted, hence we know she was running for council) and a woman who never distributed campaign literature so I have no idea what her platform was. I voted for her. She didn't win. The vet did. Jake wore his SDIT vest and freaked at the sight of the building. Part of a church but could look like a pound or shelter. I assured him, and he was fine after.<br /><br />I'm getting NaNo words every day. Sometimes it's the bare minimum but most days are at least 2K. The story is progressing nicely.<br /><br />I'm tired of the cold. I want fall back. We went from summer to winter in 24 hours.<br /><br />Lets not talk about leaves. The yard guys haven't come in a couple of weeks. They're supposed to come twice a month during fall and winter to deal with leaves and trimming trees. Haven't seen them since mid-October.<br /><br />Have I mentioned I hate DST? <br /><br />And that's about it for me. My life consists of coffee, words, and occasional outings with Jake. In other words, boring. Later, tater!Silver Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15606837105470988646noreply@blogger.com
