Sat. Dec. 6, 2025 – Lists, I’ve got ’em. Plans too.

By on December 6th, 2025 in computing, culture, decline and fall, lakehouse

Cold, damp, but maybe just overcast and not raining. That is the hope anyway. Plenty of overcast and misty damp yesterday, although no actual rain on my windshield.

I did my pickups, and stopped by my auctioneer. No date for when I can get more stuff listed. Got some stuff for the house, and some stuff for the BOL. Loaded up the truck and eventually got to the lake.

Today I’ll sleep in a bit, then start on one of the lists. Probably I’ll start with getting the heat set up in the garage and down on the dock. Then moving, sorting, unpacking, etc. Maybe some electrical in the attic? Or something else. No idea which will move to the top of the list of need and motivation. Something will though.

Something always does. Even if it’s just “I hurt so I’m not doing much.”

Stacking is so much easier.

    So this morning I woke up, decided I wasn’t going back to sleep, stretched, poured myself some coffee, and beat Denis to first comment.

    This morning is much warmer than yesterday. Not much lower than yesterday’s high, in fact. Weekend is supposed to be seasonally warm, good for getting those last chores done, then slamming cold on Monday. Subject to change, and of course the weather forecast changes.

    “Man plans, god laughs.”

    Doctorow is one of those overrated authors who said the right things to the right crowd and then got popular because he was popular. In his case the right crowd was the Kewl Kids on the left coast. He does have some good points to make but his novels aren’t nearly as good as we’re supposed to think they are.

    Good morning, SteveF! It is the little things in life that make us happy, isn’t it? Have a beautiful day!

    Today is the feast of St. Nicholas of Smyrna, aka Sinterklaas or Santa Claus, patron saint of children. Good children got gingerbread and a tangerine in their stockings (or wooden clogs) this morning.

    I am hoping for a tangerine, or maybe a Terry’s milk chocolate orange, if I have been a very good boy.
