I&#8217;m doing Laundry, poo patrol, general cleanup before the storm that&#8217;s coming in on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the weather reports are saying this storm will be rain. Others are saying that it could drop 18&#8243; of snow in the higher elevations. The problem is, which higher elevations, and what do they consider higher?<\/p>\n<p>Since I&#8217;m at roughly 6000ft it might be a big deal.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, they might be talking about the ocean facing mountains and where I&#8217;m at will  get whatever makes it over the mountain behind me. That puppy is 8000ft I think. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s possible that the bulk of the storm is just going to crash against the mountain and leave us with nothing more than decorative snow.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the problem with these things, you can&#8217;t ever tell what&#8217;s going to happen.<\/p>\n<p>So I take the opportunity to handle outdoor chores when I can during the Winter and then I hope I don&#8217;t have to go anywhere. It sounds like some of the neighbors below me are doing the same thing. <\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve had a pretty mild Winter so I&#8217;m not complaining, however I&#8217;ve been dreaming about warm Caribbean waters, beautiful beaches and diving. <\/p>\n<p>This morning I was dreaming about being naked in the sun, and this big Komodo Dragon looking lizard was walking along a fence coming right at me. <\/p>\n<p>The lizard did a double flip off the fence, stuck the landing took a bow then climbed back on the fence heading the other way. It had a tattoo on its tail that said &#8220;Mac&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I was thinking about how odd it was for a lizard to have a tattoo then I woke up. Somehow the double flip and all that seemed perfectly reasonable.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know anybody named Mac. I did, but he died many years ago. I&#8217;m sure that the Freudian psychologists in the crowd are all sharpening their pencils.  <\/p>\n<p>Maybe tonight I&#8217;ll have another dream that will shed some light on what exactly my twisted subconscious is trying to tell me.<\/p>\n<p>In the dream I was excited. The sun felt great on my balls. Happily when I woke up I was just as excited. After taking care of that&#8230; I feel much better and ready to tackle the day.<\/p>\n<p>I hope your day started out as pleasantly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today in the mountains it&#8217;s heating up quickly.
