It's snowing out there! Someone make it stop! :-/ Ugly nasty cold stuff.  ::sigh:: Why does it have to start snowing?  And it is dumpng a pretty good amount on us too.  Knew we shouldn't have got that dang snowblower yesterday.

Well, I am starting to get things a little bit more figured out.  After a long fight with my site trying to get it to do what I want, I have started figuring out how to at least get the feed reader onto the front page even if I do not yet have the actual blog up there.

I am making headway, however, so hopefully I will sort this all out sooner or later. 

I'm thinking about doing some site maintenence and removing the other blogs from linking to this one.  I only really maintain this one anymore, so there is no need for the links to the others.  So, for now, until I get back to maintining them, I have removed the links to the other blogs here and am just going to be maintaining this one.

I went out yesterday and picked some wild Alaskan cranberries from out in the yard.  There are a bunch of cranberries growing wild in the big lightly wooded area behid our garage.

They are lovely berries that are right at the perfect stage now to be picked for use this holiday season. I just picked one bowl today to see how they are, but I plan to get out there before the end of this coming week and pick a bunch more of them.

Most of the ones here in the yard are on the average size, but I did find a few good sized ones.  Need to do some scouting around and see if I can find some bigger cranberries somewhere in the area.

Woke up this morning and still feel like crud, even though I picked up some flu medicine stuff, I at least got a good night's sleep last night, but only because I took stuff that knocked me out and made me sleep despite how miserable I was feeling.
