Howdy y'all!

The house and the move has finally settled into a lower level of effort. My time is finally freed from some very urgent difficult tasks like assembling furniture and organizing and tracking deliveries.

Good news, La Petite Fille has been officially admitted to university, and we will be getting her registered for classes. They begin next week! But, major milestone in her life, reached. I couldn't be prouder, happier, or, quite honestly, more relieved.

I just published a post concerning how Trump et al. aren't dealing with reality. I'm thinking that it will be an on-going frequent column. The problem is what to call it. The Cray-Cray Watch? Has It Bitten Us in the Ass, Yet? I'm open to suggestions, though.
