Losing Time

I seem to be losing track of time and can't catch up. I've been behind by a month for a good few years. In the last year I've lost another month somewhere. Not sure where but I have.


The mosquitos are terrible. We are in the house by 9-9:30pm these nights because of the mosquitos. And because the days are getting shorter. I don't enjoy the morning sunrise during chores (but do get to enjoy the sunrise on my way to work).

I'm always sad to see the days get shorter. It means that winter is around the corner. Speaking of winter, I'm just now starting to see some of the cottonwoods turning colors. I'm keeping a close eye. I went back a year ago in this blog and noticed that trees were turning at the end of July. We'll see what this winter brings.

I also noticed that the local geese are flying. Not sure if it's the mosquitoes driving them out or if they are flying early to get a prime spot. :-)

The only good that comes with the mosquitos are the hundred of dragon flies that were flying over Borderlands two nights ago. The sky was practically black with all the dragon flies. We can only assume they were devouring the mosquitoes. I wonder where the dragon flies have been all summer. It was rather amazing to see so many dragon flies. Made me feel a little small watching the hundreds of dragon flies fly past.

Lots going on right now. I have mixed emotions and have practically drained my mental abilities with figuring out what to do with Joe. But that will be for another time. But before I lose more time, I'll leave you with my standard view at Borderlands.
