Hallo, Lane + Y'all! The days are getting longer; hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If the flight is on schedule, I should be arriving SEA-TAC around noon on 6 Jan. I'll then take Sound Transit's new "train" to the forbidden building and then the 7 to Prentice St.; so, if you hear someone arriving @ Redwing in the afternoon of 6 Jan., it's not a burglar or a racoon, but (Tschüß,) Anonomann
Thanks a peck for for the Palmer Solstice celebration. I don't know where the hell the sun went, but the days are getting longer I heard a meadowlark warble. I loved your posting prior to this one. I re-posted it over on FFTR, and it has the dubious honor of being the last posting for 2009 on that sterling site. Texas was cold, although one day it wasn't. 10 of us stayed at my mother-in-laws home, and privacy was a thing of the past. My grandsons screamed, pitched fits, opening their presents (no adults got any--actually that is not true, one of my son-in-laws brought me a MUFON ball cap from a Colorado convention he went to. The day after Christmas Melva broke her left foot while holding two year old Austin up to the kitchen sink to wash his sticky fingers. This complicated our commute home, as one might suspect. Melva is handling it fine, better than I am. The grandsons crawled all over her banging into her injured foot every ten minutes. My mole surgery came back with clean labs, so that is a blessing of sorts. Melva also had a similar surgery the day before mine, and her labs came back good as well. Cancer will have to find some other dominion, some other domicile for the time being. I had 180 emails to delete after 8 days. Heading off to our annual friend's New Year's Party in a bit; cards, fellowship, BS, and party favors, to stand at midnight and watch both the ball fall, and the Space Needle shoot its top off; although it might be pretty overcast and crappy. In a blink I will be back in harness, and endeavoring to find stuff in my office after other have filled in for me for two weeks; if I have an office left. Boss told me that my schedule will be altered severely as I begin the six month countdown to retirement.
I like the way Jannie envisions 2010. Kind of a Salvador Dali feel to it. Leave it to her to find the bizarre in the mundane. Have to pop over to her site soon to check out the latest antics of Miss Kelly.
Gosh, kinda figured that there would be a post done over the weekend. But hey, dat's cool. Monday, Monday, the first one of the New Year; raining like ten sombitches, and warm, very warm, like 42 out here. Here I am at the office, and things did not get too messed up in my absence. I was filled with dread trying to figure out how to get back to work, wondering what surprises await me. But somehow, like a good sled dog, like a stalwart fire horse, put me in harness, and after a few moments of fuss, and move back into the traces like I never left. Scary really to be such a well trained wage slave. Melva is doing well with her broken foot; a lot better than I would for sure. She is returning to work today as well. Anonomann is coming! Anonomann is coming! And there is joy at Redwing Manor. What's shaking with the old Savant?

After nearly 70 years, I have not been able to

Eve. Probably be OK.
