Yesterday we had a high of 93 degrees today we had a high of 43 a fifty-degree swing in temperature. It is cold and the winds which thankfully have not been as strong as other days still cut right through you when you are out in the elements.
It could be worse as some parts to the north and east of the state will see winter precipitation. Yesterday I took the opportunity to hand wash some of my nicer sweaters. During a normal Texas winter, I only have to wash them two or at the most three times...I have lost count of how many times I have washed them this winter. Needless to say, the central heater came back on.
My insomnia has returned. Last night I took a melatonin pill around midnight but it did not take effect until 4:11 a.m. but I was wide awake by 7:00 a.m. so it was useless. For some reason, melatonin does not work well for me.
As I type this MSNBC is announcing Russia is attacking the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv. This is so sad, I firmly believe Putin has lost his marbles. Today I filled my 6-gallon camping water containers along with many more one-gallon milk jugs just in case Russia launches cyber attacks on our infrastructure.
I also filled my five 32-gallon trash cans that I use for rain catchment as it has not rained in a while as a backup for personal hygiene. It is better to be safe than sorry.
Good night. May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
