A Day for Ducks

What a moist day outside. I’m sure this guy below enjoyed the wet weather today. I did not and I’m not looking forward to a repeat tomorrow. While a glint of sunshine hit this picture none was present today.

This weather makes me so tired. I’m sitting here yawning and it’s just past 8 pm. A week of good physical labor also contributes to this feeling of depleted energy levels.

I’m going to have to look for a second wind here soon. While my best accomplishment was getting quality time with family today, I would still like to get a few hours in on the hobbies.

Eating baby back ribs is a real treat for me. I’ve been going to the Corner Stable on York Road for years and had a wonderful meal there this afternoon with my son. I got a full rack with fries and coleslaw. They were tender as always and tasty with their original sauce.

I was telling my son I’m going to get a smoker this spring and try some myself. Now that I have the time for some slow cooking, I hope I can get the taste and tenderness that make me want to stay home and cook them all the time. And then invite family and friends.

It’s time to give my better half a break on Sunday meals. She usually cooks something special on Sundays, so maybe I’ll suggest, that I cook tomorrow instead of her.

Random Thoughts of the Day

  • Some work on portraiture is in store tonight.
  • I never should have come home and sat down in that recliner.
  • Please be careful, ticks are out already this season.
  • I have a lifetime of memories, to still make.
  • My body feels like it’s reverting back, to up all night, sleep all day.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
