It is a very fine line writers and bloggers walk each time they go public with their musings. Over the many years I have been blogging, friendships have been made and friendships have been lost over things I have written or maybe even things I have not written. It is easy for words and sayings to be misinterpreted, misunderstood, and misaligned but it is a chance we writers and bloggers take each time a word goes to print. It is a fickle road we walk and it is not without its unfortunate and unsuspecting pitfalls. OUR JEEP RIDE THIS MORNING LED US BACK TO THE BANNOCKBURN CONSERVATION AREA AGAIN
A nice sunny morning to start the day but it clouded over by noon dropping our temperatures with a thump again. All and all I would say it has been a cold April. Just as cold doesn't work for me anymore nor does hot. It is a narrow comfort zone of whimsical weather I live in nowadays and it's another one of those things where I put the blame squarely on this darn aging process. Not everyone of course but I'm not everyone, so I will probably continue to complain about the hots and colds to the very end of my days.
I am very heartened to say I 'finally' have absolutely no idea what is going on politically south of the border anymore. And I have to say I am feeling much better about things because of that. My formula is simple, no television news, no internet news, and no printed media news. I don't want to hear about it and I don't want to talk to anybody about it. Not exactly the right way to deal with it perhaps but it's my way and I just got sick and tired of all the fighting, bickering, and arguing 24/7, and the toll it has taken on friends, families, and most all people in general.
I DID NOT SEE THE DUCK ON THE RIVER UNTIL I EDITED THIS PHOTO TONIGHT
MAYBE NEXT TIME HERE WE WILL CLIMB THESE OLD WOODEN STAIRS AND DO THE WHOLE TRAIL |
ALWAYS INTERESTING SMELLS ALONG THE WAY |
SOME GRASSES JUST SEEM TO TASTE BETTER THAN OTHER GRASSES
Oh, and before we get to Groaner's Corner I suggest anyone who shares my interest in Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO''s) or Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP's) as they are now more commonly known, check the following link about an announcement to be released by the U.S. Government in June. Pentagon UFO Report I have my fingers crossed that at least 'some' of the truth will finally come out. AND, WE'RE BACK TO THE JEEP
SO WHY DID I HAVE A BACKYARD CAMPFIRE TODAY?? BECAUSE I COULD......'YAY GEORGE':))
A: When there's tobacco spit on both sides of the truck.
At age 74.75 I have found my comfort temperature to be more like 78F than the previous preference of 71F. And COLD starts at 49F now.
ReplyDeleteHow is peanut butter on your diabetes diet? I'm appreciating the cold night. It's keeping the black flies where they belong - rather than on our skin.
ReplyDeleteI only eat natural peanut butter with no additives, and I eat it straight out of the jar. No bread.
DeleteGlad Kelly's mom is on the mend.
ReplyDeleteKeeping our fingers crossed for your PSA test to come back Negative.
For a while after I retired from the Casting Plant anything under 90 F was cold.
Be Safe and Enjoy those Peanutbutter Sandwiches.
It's about time.
Al, I agree with you on a couple of things! First, like you, I can only tolerate moderate weather. I used to be able to stand it here until it got to 100 degrees. Now, if it is up in the mid 90's, I am uncomfortable. Second, we are enjoying the relative peace & quiet here. We don't stay glued to the TV 24/7, wondering when martial law would be declared. Phew! Peace & quiet FINALLY!!!!
ReplyDeleteI completely agree about watching the gong show unfold. Not just in the states but as always that is most of where most of it is, Brad still monitors it but I pay no attention at all anymore - my nerves just can't take it.
ReplyDeleteHope Kelly's trip goes well. Enjoy those peanut butter sandwiches!
ReplyDeleteHey Al, you like celery? Peanut butter is great on celery. Put some in a bowl and scoop celery stalk into it. Yum!
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more. And I have to live here....
