adverse conditions
“Summmmmm-rrrrrrr tiiiiiiime — and the living’ is eeeeeeee-zzzzeeeeee.” Thalia belted out one of her favorite show tunes.
Calliope hummed, “In my mind I’ve gone to Carolina… Can’t you feel the sunshine… Can’t you just feel the moonshine?”
Urania sighed. The thermometer read eight notches below the zero mark. “I — am grateful — for a functional furnace.”
Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds.

Why do you need marks below the zero mark??!!? ;) -Signed Weather Wimp
In my mind I’m skiing in Wisconsin
Can’t you just hear the snow crunch
Can’t you just see a hot lunch
Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
To sneak up from behind!
I didn’t realize the effect Cal could have on me! Impelling me to write nonsense lyrics!
Today’s post created an a-ha moment for me regarding Nia. I often interpreted her comments through a “party pooper” lens. But today I realized that being, living in the moment often colors her remarks!? Lacking a celebratory tone at times? I’m guessing that I don’t employ such a tone in many of my remarks. 🙃 “Just the facts, ma’am.” Sgt. Joe Friday. Dragnet. 🤔
Funny aside: When I clicked the link below “Atlas Ant” up popped Simon Cowell of America’s Got Talent. I suffered a finger stutter. Left me scratching my head. I then stuttered up a notch and voila! I liked typist’s review very much.
May your furnace be up to the task today, and always.
