We're fighting off 20 degrees below zero here in the Wisconsin Nort'woods.

That involves some drinks, thick food and a nice fire.

I built a nice fire in the living room the other night and had a little cognac.

Sadly, I don't have a fireplace so that's become an issue with my landlord.

And, oh, I can't afford cognac for those who believed that. But I do have a handle of rotgut gin that serves multiple purposes. First, it gets me going. Second, you can run your car for a short time on the stuff but then the car suddenly veers off the road. Third, it will take paint off your car if you're remodeling the vehicle. On the downside, it will take paint off nearby cars, your home and you will lose all your fingernails.

Despite my stupid jokes, it's lovely to have a home where I can settle at the end of the day. I'm still unpacking and have yet to find my winter coat, so warm to me I rarely wear it until the temperature is below zero. I suspect I won't find that box until May.

But I can do some minimal cooking with what I've unpacked and now have a kitchen table instead of a lap to hold the plate. I'm picking over some old books I haven't seen in a couple of years, not unlike talking with old friends after years away.

Home is beautiful. Life is good. Now I'll upgrade the nightly cocktail to, say, turpentine? 

Peace and home unto you my brothers and sisters.

  2. Hey Rich! Just watched yer Packers get packed up and sent home. Troy Aikman says if you lose in your first game of the playoffs, you ain't no better than Jacksonville! Best record and MVP of the NFL be darned. Sorry, I was a Packer fan, then Rodgers opened his mouth... And yet they keep saying Rodgers in a sure Hall of Famer. It's like Bill Belichick says - they'll let anybody in the Hall of Fame...

  4. Hi viewers online, I'm here to share my testimony about how I was helped to get my husband back. I was a cheat and my husband caught me several times. I tried fixing myself and each time I ended up cheating over and over again. I guess I didn't realize what he meant to me until he had left me alone. I began to find a way to get him back but nothing seemed to work out perfectly until I came across an article about Lord Zulu who helped a lot of people globally to get their relationships back. I made contact with him and he assured me that my husband will come back to me within 48 hours with his powerful magic for the materials needed for the work. Surprisingly, my husband came back home after 2 days saying that he still loves me and I swore never to cheat on him anymore. All thanks to Lord Zulu. You can have a chat with him on his WhatsApp number or you can contact him on +1(909) 781-4612.
