A redneck moves from the trailerhood to the suburbs for a little patch of dirt to call home and set up an as much as possible self sufficient lifestyle. Some things will go better than planned, others worse. Hopefully, most will at best be somewhere in between.

77 To 57 & Vlad Going Crazy
Today's high temp is supposed to be 77 F and tomorrow's is forecast to be a mere 55 F, a 20 degree drop in 24 hours., more or less as a high. After almost 3 months of near high record temperatures, we're expecting our frsrt frost of the year this coming Sunday morning.
Yesterday late morning I was parked on the sofa, watching the idiot box when my boy , Vlad the Jack Russell terrier came running in yapping and doing his "crazy dance". I asked him what he wanted, he answered but as usual I didn't understand what he was saying. First guess, I fed him and Bella, my Dachshund and they were happy for moment. Then Vlad came back dancing and telling me something which I again didn't understand. I filled their water bowl and again they were content... for a moment.
Later when I went to take some clothes off the "redneck dryer" aka clothes line, Vlad waited until I got to the line then jetted past me as if he'd been shot from a cannon!
That's when I knew he was feeling the season, that the heat wave was past and he was ready to run crazy! He would run crazy past me and I would call to him
, "Run crazy, boy!" and to Bella, "Run crazy, Get Vlad!"
After about 10 minutes or so, I'd had enough of running crazy so I called them in.
It was no more than 2 minutes after we came in I looked around for Vlad and Bella and found them sacked out in bed, awaiting Papa to come lay down with them.
It's getting a bit nippy here come evening time to sunrise so I've turned my heater/Ac unit to "heat". In the daytime, it's still comfy with doors n windows open but we need a bit of heat to sleep.
Who knows? Maybe I'll actually begin cooking indoors soon instead of on the grill or smoker.
