Sure Got Cold Again!

We're needing that snow which we are NOT getting in SouthWest Nebraska to be falling on us and getting that ground all covered up while the winter lasts, you know; something like trying to find an end to the drought we've been enduring for what now seems like decades. What we're getting, though, is some melting off and some packing down and a general thinning to non-existence of our snow cover. That lets the ground freeze and hastens the drying of it, making sure that what we'll have when we do get some scant moisture is the majority of that moisture running off. Making for floodings elsewhere and a missed chance for some ground softening along the way. Oh Well!! The library is undergoing construction and will be closed for up to 20 days beginning 1/15/2013: We'll know more on that, later. I'm hoping to be able to find someplace that's all capable of getting me connected to the WWW while that construction is going on, but in this burg I WON'T be holding my breath while looking. I guess I really DO need one of those smartphones I keep hearing are so great and that I see in so many hands, maybe the ISP @ home thing isn't so necessary any more, but right now this place has been serving fairly well. I'm going now to try to make some sales online happen. If it works for me, I will surely be saying so.

How Many Days Passed Was That Gap??

Hello Whoever, & I put it that way because of the failure on my part to make this thing any kind of interesting. Or to even make it here with any sort of consistency what-so-ever! That's the way things go when you're having the best of times which you can in the worst of times you might be living through. More changes are coming for McCook, NE and it seems that I'm going to be having a hand in some of it, both for the starting of the changes and then also in the day to day of the thing begun. We FINALLY got a smattering of moisture in this near desert we've been enduring, but the drought is far from broken or over, the wind pushed the snow into some pretty fair sized piles around the neighborhood, but it's going away without getting any replenishment and this isn't such a darned good thing at all. I WILL try to be back sooner and more frequently than has been happening, but who knows how that endeavor will go? Best of all to all in all, everyday!
