but... first, Coffee.


Beautiful... Morning, in Iowa.
Possibly Record High Temps, today!!
The Sun is Shining...
Oh Boy!!

Feel like I've already traveled a million miles, without leaving the house, this morning.
: )

Phone calls... appointments, work... and more work, this week.
Making 'Lists'... of things that must get done.
Oh Boy!!
; )
Seems... there's always many, many... 'Fires' to be put out, on Monday mornings.
; )


Sippin' from my Monday Morning Coffee Mug, 
it reads...

"but first...
Coffee"

Indeed.

Starting on The Cedar Rapids, Iowa... Estate Sale, today.
That Sale... guessing, will be set for mid April.
Stay Tuned!!
; )

Many Changes... coming, this Spring.
Yeah... 
Boy.
; )

Here we Go...
Full Throttle,
Wide...
Open.

; )

Love to Ya... 
Prayers for All.

Estate Sale... Coming in April!!


Starting on an Estate Sale, in the morning.
This Sale... will be in Cedar Rapids.
We haven't set the dates, yet.

This Estate Sale... is the one we had planned on conducting, in January.
The Estate Holder's have been working on renovations of the Home...
their contractors fell behind, it's been a long process.

This is a Complete Household, with a Full Double Garage.
The Home, will be for sale as well.

 Guessing the Sale will be held mid April.
We'll know more, concerning the dates, in a day or two... as we begin sorting.
: )

Stay Tuned!!

{It's going to be a Crazy... Busy 'Spring'. Much... is coming down the pipeline.
Many Changes.}

Priceless.


 

Stay Tuned.


<3
Sometimes...
 struggle with the 'forgive quickly'...
part.
; )
{It's a 'Taurus'... thing, I do believe.}
; )

I'll be writing a longer post tomorrow.

Today, thought of the tune,
'Wolf Creek Pass'.
; )




Dad, was a Trucker... as was Brother, Sonny.
<3
{The Stories... <3 <3 <3 }

The Stories... Dad shared, over the few years we 'shared' together, were, looking back,
 The Best Education...

'Preparedness for Life'.
; )
<3

Love to Ya...
Prayers for All.

{Sure wish, CDOT, and IDOT... engineers, would, and would've... asked Truckers, and Highway Patrol about 
'Safety'
concerning
State, and Federal Highways...}





Sure wish... Fairfax, Iowa... 'City Hall', would've given a thought, concerning 'bike trails', 'Safety'...
and building wrongful...
bloated 
Bridges...
{The West Cemetery Road Bridge}
 to 'accommodate' them.
{my humble opinion}
{time... will tell.}
{it always... does.}
<3

Sippin' Whiskey, a little early.
oh...
my.
; )

Stay Tuned.

Oh my.


 

One day... at a time.


The Windshield verses the Rearview mirror.

I... struggle, with that.
Always have.
; )

I'm an old Taurus... 'The Bull', who would much rather be grazing, eating 'Clover Tops', than... fighting a 'Bull Fight'.

 When a 'Red Flag'... is flashed in my face, well...
tend to sharpen my horns.

The Book... is coming.
There's so many moving parts, in this IDOT/Fairfax, Iowa...
'Mess'.

few... 
sadly, in my opinion, could follow it.
: (

It's gonna 'Take a Book', to explain.
'This Mess', in my humble opinion...
should 
Never, Ever...
Ever... Ever...
'Happen', to anyone, ever again.
Ever.

Love to Ya...
Prayers for All.

One Day... at a Time.

Indeed.


 

So much.



It sickens me, to think...

For the record...
I know who you are, and... who you think you are.

Bless your hearts.
; )

At the end, of 'this' day... well, those who have wrongfully......ridden this 'Crazy Train', sadly...
I wish you all.. 'to Rot in Hell'.
: (
Make no mistake... I Will... be calling each,  and every 'Loser'... 'Liar', to The Front Lines.

It might take me a minute, and miles...
but, 
 guarantee, 
'Hell', eventually....
is 
coming to 
'Breakfast'.

Love to Ya...
Prayers, for All.

{so much for keeping things 'light'. ; ) oh my. 
visiting with neighbors, kinda stirs me up.
We all agree, 'Fairfax'... ain't 'Home, sweet home', anymore.
Hasn't been, for many, many... years.}
