back to frost, north wind

yesterday's clouds are gone leaving it clear and cold again.....below freezing at night....there's enough shrimp chow mein left to have a bowl for lunch today.....and for supper I'll do something with chicken breast besides chow mein.....like maybe BBQ style, with cole slaw and something.....nothing in the mail yesterday......watched an old movie and then read an e-book until around 10:30 and then went to bed.....in front of the mill when I was walking in the afternoon the AT&T guys were moving their lines from the old telephone pole to the new one that the contractor had put in the ground last week.....when they released the lines from the old pole, it just fell over.....guess it really was ripe for replacement.....the pole near my back fence looks fairly new, hopefully it isn't ready to fall over too.....the one by the mill had been hit by a car a few months ago, maybe that was a contributing factor in it's failure.....not any other excitement in the neighborhood that I can think of.....
