Beck has her own power poles, that is way, way out in the country. 😉

Glad you bought plenty of gas for the generator.

Sitting here, up in my tree, I’m pondering…( uh-oh), 25 years ago I would’ve laughed in your face if you told me in June 2019 I would be sitting up here posting on a message board. No discernible wi-fi near me and I’m reaching people allover the world. Insane!  
Nice breeze blowing. I smell Mimosa fumes ( fragrant yet strong).  
All I wish for is a pillow. My butt hurts from sitting on these boards. A snack would be nice, too.  
Ah, ain’t life grand!!  
ETA wonder if I could reach the space station with this voo-doo-woo signal??

Wave to the sky. Space station, Google earth, Russian spy satellites, there are eyes everywhere!

You know what, that sounds just wonderfully heavenly! Yes, I know you probably don’t see it that way, but I long for open country with no other noisy people around, just the wind and the sky. I finally moved out of the Big City but I’m just in the burbs on the fringes of it, so still lots of humans, cars, motorcycles, lawnmowers, etc. Fuck 'em all, I just want quiet. At least I don’t hear goddam jetliners any more.

It’s a pleasant place to live, when things are right. I’ve spent many years making sure my amenities work properly. Girl must have running water. I like my tea and baths.  
This little kerfuffle is really nothing. And…wait for it…MY POWER IS ON!!!  
Yay!!!

Yeah, that sounds like him. He has to keep his priorities in line.

It’s storming hard here. Under flash flood and Severe thunderstorm watch. So far, the power isn’t flickering.

I hope it doesn’t get any worse.
