Reminds me of this monster on the girls' window 3 years ago, right after installing new windows!

Warning @nuleafjhawk !
This descendant has affixed himself to our window screen

The gentleman who lived across the street from me passed away earlier this year and his wife was here a couple of weeks ago getting the 3 story house ready to sell. The for sale sign went up last weekend. Being nosy, I looked it up online and it is for sale for $750,000. Couple of the pictures were actually great at showing what my cove looks like.

Happy Friday. I've been a bit occupied!!

Today I had blood work done in Marble Falls and stopped at The Bluebonnet Cafe for breakfast. Then I went and took a look at this beauty! After seeing the full size Bronco (gas guzzler at 18 mpg) that I could hardly get in because it was so high off the ground and it was just too big for me, I softened up to the Bronco Sport Outer Banks model (27 mpg). They are a much quieter drive than the full sized one. I can almost hear the sound of waves crashing along the beach because I will go if I have a reliable vehicle.

We are being outplayed. They hustled and took the ball away from us so many times. Lazy passes.

All the good will we earned from around the world these last 2 weeks was wiped out by this atrocious turnaround. The world hates us now more than ever and only us in the United States will be rooting for us. Just sickens me.

From the archives: Freeze 2021. Where we didn't have power for 7 days and then when we got hooked up, the transformer blew out and we had to go another day before they were back to replace it. We kept our frozen foods outside in a cooler. It was below freezing for an ungodly 5 straight days. I would rather have 100 degrees than be that cold ever again. And mind you, I was born in South Dakota, lived in Bloomington, MN growing up and then down to Leavenworth. When Mike and I moved it was because we just didn't want to go through another winter. I flew down to Austin for an interview with an attorney (who was a cousin of my present boss) the first of November. We were packed up and moved in on November 29th. Leaving Leavenworth was the other reason. Just nothing happening in 1979 for either of us.

England putting the whammy on Mexico. Quieted the crowd.

@approxinfinity And you know who wants that trophy for himself.

@rockchalkjayhawk I told you THE FIX WAS IN lol

Here's a 2,000 piece puzzle we worked on this week. It is called Radiant Rainbow Mandalas. It was a tantalizing array of colors.
What Is the Purpose of a Mandala?
Ever since their creation, mandalas were used as symbols for meditation, concentration, protection, a personal maturity process, and healing. Different religions, philosophies, and cultures, all use different techniques of mediation when using mandalas.
Using a mandala can help you to find yourself, or the path you wish to travel.
Spending time cultivating harmony and peace within your heart. From this, you can find gentle words and thoughts that can show you new paths or directions. If you are passionate about coloring and want to try something different, try to color a mandala and find the purpose of a mandala for yourself. Have a look at the benefits of coloring a mandala. They are widely available for about any design you could imagine.

Darryn Peterson's Summer League debut did not disappoint
His 28 points were the third most by a Top-2 pick over the last 10 seasons, and the most in their SL debut over that span.

This guy did a whole lot of metrics to come up with the 25 hardest to play gymnasiums and of course AFH is at the top. Here's why:
"1) Kansas | Allen Fieldhouse

"Pay heed, all who enter: Beware of the Phog."

The banner has hung in Allen Fieldhouse for years, and by every measure we have — over any window you choose — it isn't a bluff. Kansas owns the longest, loudest home-court tradition in the sport, a 16,300-seat building sold out for decades running, a program that loses at home about as often as it snows in Lawrence in July.

It leads or nears the top in every pillar we track: fill rate, mystique, home-court swing, and history, over as long a data set as you want. There's no debate at the top of this list that the model had to manufacture"!

@rockchalkjayhawk I, of course, did lol. No mention of Johnny Furphy that I could find. I think this goes under the radar when talking about Kelly:

Insert Oubre, who is one of just 32 players who has averaged over 11 points per game since 2017-18.

Messi has been given more favorable rulings than anyone else and it's not even comparable. The fix is in.

@approxinfinity So sorry for your loss. A mother's love never waivers and she always knew your love was there for her. It's something I learned after losing mine and being a mother myself. May her memory be a blessing to you in the days ahead. ️
