Not quite as high as the suv, but close.Doing well today here at Gina's. They have made me feel very comfortable and at home. The house is really charming and homey. Worried a lot in the night, and read until I fell asleep. Called Joe and things are o.k. at home. Also talked to Charm. We visited this morning, went to the store and this afternoon Gina has gone to move cattle and vaccinate at Bob's son's ranch. She will be back about 4 p.m. I'm babysitting the dogs and kitty - they are all very quiet at the moment - and catching up the blog. Looked at the email. I'm on Gina's laptop, but brought mine and am going to get it set up. I'm sure it will work fine by just plugging it in. And Gina has wireless here, so we'll see how that works. - will learn something new. I just wanted to get the blog done before I got involved in trying to get mine set up because several of you are asking what's been going on.
I have a lot of photos on the card I haven't been able to download onto the "big" computer, and will be able to do that with the laptop. I'll show some new pictures. I even brought the external hard drive along, and can spend some time writing on the book.
This morning it was snowing when I woke up, then the wind started to blow and drift the snow. Now its clear and sunny, not too cold.
In a while I'm going to get meatloaf dinner ready and that will give me something to do. I've made a list of things I want to accomplish in town while I'm here, things that need to be arranged or settled and have been on my mind. The oil in the car needs to be changed.
Thursday there is a Mixed Media art group meeting at the senior center that I said I would go to. Yesterday's blog pretty much was most of what has happened. I'll write the news as it happens.
Remember Gina is the one who adopted Nube. For a while she was out on their ranch in the pasture, but she is here in their corral right now. I can look out the window and watch her. There is another horse with her so she has company. I don't know how she likes being a city horse, but she is looking good.
I brought along a few errand type of things to do here in town, since I haven't been into town for three months, except just to go to Jackson. I also brought my pastels and may be able to work some with those and get some artwork done.
About 10:30 the wind did come up enough to be moving the snow, and by night is still blowing, so probably a good thing I am not home. I may not be able to go back at all until spring.
Here are a few things I thought I'd mention:
PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT send me any packages. Joe will have a hard time hauling them in on the snowmachine and I will not get them.
Even regular mail I may not get for quite a while.
It will be best to email me rather than phone for now. I will try to respond better than I have been in the last few months.Thanks a lot.
~J~ will you send me your email address again, I can't find it right now and have been meaning to write or phone and have been procrastinating, sorry, I'm bad about that.
