Foggy already. Its gonna be an ugly night
On the positive side, I'm home safe, gonna curl up on the porch with some coffee and enjoy the fog. So quiet, stealthy.

So I was laying in bed thinking of my times in the military in my early 30's. I miss those days. Thank god I landed the woman of my dreams.

Thank God you realize a good thing. Shes lucky to have you. Never take her for granted and let her know you care.

My night

So I just blamed my wife for fart dusting me. Nope it was just her just our old dog. God she gets horrid gas from grazing on chicken poop. The timing was just suspect. The dog can be 1 meter away and offend you. With doors and windows open as well. It is still 74.3 outside. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KTXSANBE6

It is so amazing what oranges look down here. They are not a chemically enhanced color. Mostly they are green and orange tinged. This thought got me off my pillow. We get them fresh down here wife made a nice pineapple, orange, banana, and mango with chia seed seed smoothie today. They just are not walmart oranges. As compared to Valley oranges.

I was told years ago (don't know if it's true) that grapefruit inthe stores is rotten, that's why it's sour. That a ripe grapefruit is a light green and sweet. Enlighten me....is this true?

I cannot eat those so do not know. It is a medication thing. Plus I didn't buy the 12 acre grapefruit plantation I wanted. I do not think they go rotten tough. If they were you would see it in their skins.

Maybe rotten is wrong word. The yellow/orange grapefruit are overripe.
That may be a better statement.
Axripe grapefruit is green with yellow, not yellow and orange etc....
Just curious, I don't know. Thought maybe you knew.

I just wish I knew what chemicals they use to ripen them. Like I was saying our oranges do not look like Walmart or HEB ones. I just know our farmers produce a sh#tton of them.

We get to buy the perfectly acceptable orange rests. They are unwashed and untreated which is how I prefer fruit. Honestly some of the small oranges are very sweet. Plus you can buy 10 kilos for 5 bucks. DW would say 5 for 5 but she is wrong I just know the better places to shop.
