Sunshine in a Russian wintry day is rare and when we have it, Boza and I enjoy it. It went to -5 last night, but the sun is out and is beautiful. It will be +6 today and lets hope the melt continues… The gurgle of a creek, even if there really is no creek, […]
The world is not coming to an end, just an old friend, who is just slowing down. Wars and depressions come and go but here we are, still standing. Every person in America and or the world will still be doing all the other activities that constitute an economy, just at a much reduced level. […]
Vova made pancakes today… It is pancake week you know? Well if you do not, read the link above… Vova brought a huge platter of pancakes down and him and I gorged ourselves upon the tasty treats. These were what I call real pancakes and not the thin blini that are common in Russia. I […]
I took my cup of coffee and sat overlooking the lake this morning. I got up at 5:30 a.m. and felt good! Therefore, to celebrate, I watched nature and her bringing spring to us. Boza chased a fox, while I sat quietly and listened. After Boza calmed down and came back to his guard duty […]
I woke at 3:30 a.m. and I was not sure what was wrong. I grabbed the sugar monitor and took a reading. My blood sugar was at Mild Hypoglycemia! (3.0 mmol/l or 54 mg/dl for Americans… Kinda too low…) I woke with a headache and shaking. I was having a wild dream and was startled awake. […]
Long morning and Vova once again keeps things interesting. Vova went to Majara to chase a woman he knows there. He knew better and he admits it this morning. But we guys are kinda stupid at times and his stupidity (or little brain as we call it,) got him buried deep in the snow… I […]
Busy today so drink some coffee; I did… Have a nice day and I will post tomorrow or maybe this afternoon. Counts on what is going on in life, today is Big Village day, Vova and I are going on a grocery run. Kinda out of food… WtR
Which comes first? I am heating the water to make a cup of coffee. Boza and I got up early and walked around to see what is up and going on. Not much really, when there is only 3 people living in the village, not a whole bunch happens exciting at any moment. So while […]
Terrible snow storm, rain, sleet, hail, wind and tons of snow. Storm that had it all… The internet provider, which is also the cellphone provider, got squished, squashed and smashed evidently at its tower nearby. Since we are too far from civilization for other towers to take over, we were silenced effectively for the day. […]
This morning I woke up and Boza and I ran outside to walk… We stepped into an alternate world as we exited the door and found that winter had decided we were bad and snowed all over our parade. It was only -4 this morning, but still, what is the deal with the snow? Oh, […]
