Nome is used to rowdy residents, but some relatively new transplants are making a real nuisance of themselves -- although unlike the colorful characters of the early 20th century gold rush days, these visitors have four legs, not two.
Musk oxen are wandering into the city on the Seward Peninsula, and despite loud noises, water hoses and even a blow-up bear coated in ursine urine, they don't want to leave.

Seriously, if need be, I will grab some missionaries. They just want to participate in service projects.
I may entice my great nephew and his friend, since they want to know where Jasmine-the-dog goes.

Bob. Pay attention: I can always read a menu, but I don’t necessarily need to buy what’s on it... ;o]

They can’t help it if they’re nocturnal. “If you just let us stay out all night, everything will be fine!”
Jake is outside rolling in the dirt, and Shannon is sitting at the screen looking disgusted.

I didn’t have any chest pains last night, but I don’t think I’m out of the woods, yet.
I hope Busdaddy doesn’t want me to go anywhere today. I need to go to Walmart, but that has to wait a few weeks, and when I go, it will be by myself, early in the morning. He wants to go places in the heat of the day.
Yesterday, I got some more stuff sorted and taken out to the slowly growing pile of stuff to be donated. When payday comes, I will try to remember to go to the thrift stores and buy some loose-leaf binders for the papers that I have. It seems to be the only way I can actually tidy up in here.

Sunday picnics in the South. Or is that the ubiquitous Church Supper?
Seeing that food makes me hungry, but I’m out of Instant Breakfast. I need to eat something when I take my pills, but my choices are slightly limited, right now.
I sure wish I hadn’t forgotten that CoQ10. Dang. I KNOW it’s because I was so tied up with Busdaddy’s break-in.

I don’t think that motor could do much damage. It wasn’t big enough. Damage, yes, but it wasn’t big enough to pull him into it.

I found a recipe on Facebook for Mexican Pasta Salad, if you’re interested. It makes a LOT!
It makes so much that I would have to halve it, and give half of what I made to someone else!
