Asides

Then We Got Rain…

IMG_2894
It has been raining now for weeks. The ranches in the area now look like lakes with cattle carefully walking on the few dry areas left. This morning it rained. The lightning and thunder started around 6 just in time to get most people out of bed a little too early on a Monday morning.

Rain is good for gaming. There is not much else to do except watch TV, read a book, or eat large quantities of unhealthy food. Sadly, my gaming is confined to a few half hearted attempts. There really is no room to play and time is as usual very limited.

For me, the prospect of moving looms once again. I spent the weekend inspecting boxes, discarding junk, and preparing things for a trip to the Goodwill. Sadly, the rain has prevented me from taking any more photos since I remain dependent on natural light but I hope to get a little more posted in the next week.

The living room has become a sea of small boxes. The miniatures get moved by me and only me so I have stacked them where I can keep an eye on them. I will find out whether I move or not in the next few days. Moves can be exhilarating but I know this one will be a challenge.

To close what may be the last entry from my old home with a positive note, the website has been up for a year, there have been 7 malicious logon attempts and almost 500 spam comments. It has allowed me to write and in doing so focus on exactly why there is this enormous mass of boxes in the living room. No answers yet but I expect to have them eventually.
