Posting defunct today! Went to Big Village, got bit (more like swords of death driven deep) on the right top of my hand by a horsefly. Hand is swollen now. Taken antihistamine for it. Itches like crazy. Grouchy and grumbly! Then a horsefly bit my left elbow and now it is swollen, itchy and I […]
When I was a little kid, grandpa handed me a small shovel and bucket. He then pointed at the outhouse and told me to clean out the pit… I was fascinated and scared at the same time. I had visions of monsters that lived in the bowls of an outhouse and ate all given to […]
Biggest, bloodiest and or whatever Mass shooting/killing “ever” in America? Not really, but lets pretend it is for the sake of less arguments. Just think American Indian and that will focus your brain… “Bloodiest mass murder in US history at a gay nightclub in Orlando on Sunday, federal officials said…” It is not the headlines […]
Sveta picked up a old Samsung smartphone so that I could use GPS and have a always carry camera. Well neither worked properly and since it was Symbian operating system, there was not much I could do with it. Literally junk, until I thought about installing android in it.

When in a Tiny Russian Village, the comforts are what you make of it. If you are lazy and ignore all around you. Life gets rough and you have no one but yourself to blame. You let your fence collapse, that is your fault. You allow your house to fall apart, that is your fault. […]
After several emails and a comment or two. I decided to verify that I have the weather station still and I use it daily. I am working on figuring out how to install a widget that allows me to have the stats on the blog, but as I am not that swift with coding. It […]
Yesterday it got to a high of about 7 degrees. We were lucky that it got that high… The day was very windy, rainy and the wind came out of the north, stocking caps, heavy coats, long underwear and gloves were necessary. Boza of course had his fur coat on, so he was fine as […]
