The 1st of December was covered with snow...

elsewhere... in other years. A balmy 66 degrees in Missoula today; probably broke the record. The clouds were threatening but nary a drop on my way to and fro the liquor store to buy food. It's Wednesday.

I took out $100 from the ATM, spent $17, pocketed the rest. Maybe I'll check my mail, treat myself to a milkshake. It's been a month since my last foray across the river.

I hadn't been out since last Wednsday. Forgot to take the garbage out.

I'm sitting here with hot cocoa. I may eat up the rest of yesterday's poor-man 'paella' later.

Time to open the window. It will barely dip below 50 tonight which is quite a bit above the normal high.

But today... was covered in snow for me for over 20 years (1979-2003). It's Kevin's birthday and until he ghosted me he was the closest friend I ever had. Each December I'd listen to this song and know that all was right in the end because Kevin would be there for me.

Every 1st of December was covered with snow...



I made this trinket one year ago today,
