Happy President’s Day. If you have work, sorry. If not, enjoy your day off. We’re on the downhill side of February and my birthday is getting closer. Yippee. (Where’s the sarcasm font when I need it?) Actually, even at my age birthdays definitely beat the alternative.

In better news, pitchers and catchers have reported for spring training and the rest of the players start arriving this week. Also, college softball has started with the usual opening tournaments. My Cowgirls are currently 6-4 and the Sooners are 7-1. In other sports news, Stormy’s team won Saturday, 14-2. We missed the game for…reasons.

And the reason? LG and I were on the road. He’d found a replacement truck for the one that caught fire and was totaled out by the insurance company. The truck had a few “dings” that made him want to keep looking. Then the salesman called with a new deal. One of the “problems” was that the truck didn’t have siderails/steps. 4WD trucks sit high and me trying to get my leg that high with enough umph to actually haul my carcass into the seat without that step is pretty much a big ol’ nope. The dealership offered to add siderails and they also dropped the price to get it within LG’s loan payment range. So, yay! He’s now the proud owner of a 2019 4WD F150 Lariat, white with black interior and only 128K miles. There are a couple of body dings and a small rip in the driver’s seat leather but we can live with those. LG’s already bought seat covers to take care of that problem. We’ll deal with the body stuff as needed. Anyway, the dealership is located a bit over an hour’s drive away. And there was weather we were trying to get there and back in between so no game. That said, they seem to win more when we aren’t there. Hrmm….

I did manage to get some writing done. Not much but it’s progress.

And we got rain Friday night and Saturday. We REALLY need rain so I’d take a lot more of that. Sadly, though, not in the forecast.

On the other people’s books front, the next new title on my radar doesn’t drop until the end of March and nothing has cropped up that’s caught my attention so I’m doing a marathon relisten to the Graphic Audio versions of Ilona Andrew’s Kate Daniels series. Fun stuff.

Other than laundry, there wasn’t much else going on. Looking forward on this week, there’s nothing on the calendar other than a Wallyworld run at some point and hopefully more writing. Anybody doing something cool?
