Good morning. Friday is here. I am expecting the new lawn mower today. I am dreading it in a way as I hate changes. And of course there will be some minor assembly I would assume. None of this used to bother me and now it is terror from outer space. At least it is supposed to be a nice day. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Expecting rain today so I may not make the walk this morning. Game time decision. I feel better since ordering the new lawn mower. It did help to scream as I authorized payment though. Nothing on the agenda today except maybe church and balancing the bank statement. I am expecting the new lawn mower to be delivered tomorrow. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Calendar pages changed on all calendars yesterday in a pre-emptive move heralded by all of my neighbors. May Day is celebrated today. It used to be something to honour the working class and commemorate their struggles for fair wages and better working conditions. Now it is a military parade for the communist nations around the world. Years ago the Catholic church made it a feast day for St Joseph the Worker to honor the people who worked. I of course am still struggling with the problem of a final solution. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. The last day of the month. Time to get ready to change the calendar pages. I depressed myself and went and looked at lawn mowers yesterday. I thought I found someone to fix mine but so far he has not returned the call. Actually he has but I was not there to receive it. It probably would not have worked as he would probably want me to pay him. Now someone said the guy who lives next to me has a host of lawn mowers and maybe he would sell me one. Of course that would involve an argument on how much he would want for one of them. I used to like buying and selling and the vitriol involved with this. Not any more. It would not look good on my résumé for sainthood upon completion of my journey on this side of the curtain. Waiting for the light to go for the exercise. Have a reasonable day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Monday is here like it was predicted to be. I think the rain is finished. My mind is still muddled with thoughts of the lawn mower............. what is and what could have been. Have a reasonable day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
April 27, 1981, The wedding of Ringo Starr and Barbara Bach, with the Harrisons and the McCartneys; FYI, John Lennon had passed away the previous December 8, 1980
Good morning. Mid 50s and rain today. No agenda. Lawn is growing and I languish in the uncertainty of a lawn mower. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Happy Saturday. I woke up at 2 this morning with some inconvenience with my tooth, or maybe it is the gum. In either case, I do not like it. I have a dental appointment in about a month so I will have to tread water if it is not the end of the world. These things always happen on the weekend or the eve of the weekend. Well, as they told me about the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, meditate. I am planning on Walmart this morning for an emergency trip for eggs. It has been raining all night and the neighbor is building an ark. I believe by six the rain will have stopped for a few hours and I shall release a dove to see if the water has receded from the surface of the ground. Have a reasonable day and don't let your tooth bother you. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
A million years ago for these horror icons. I wonder how her parents feel!
I used to watch both of these people every week, and still watch the woman in the bottle.
Good morning. Expecting some rain later in my backyard, around 9 or so, colonial time. Tired this morning. NFL Draft. I have not received a call as of yet. Have a reasonable day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Greetings. About 40* this morning. The agenda: Who knows! In either case, have a reasonable day. I usually do not do coffee until after the exercise protocol. I hate not being able to go at 3 any longer. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Happy Passover. Cooler this morning, about 35*F. Going to the high 50s later. Passover started Monday. I don't celebrate it. It is something from the distant past. People are going around throwing paint and blood on people's houses. Toilet papering their property and soaping the windows of their cars. I prefer the present. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. I am hoping for a reasonable day for you. The Vice President has left my city. She was about 4 or 5 blocks from my house and therefore not easy to travel. I guess something one has to put up with in this era of people getting nuts over politics. I miss the days of JFK. I actually got to see him speak. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
That is the Radisson Hotel where I used to go to brunch every Sunday and holiday......without the cars. This is obviously some dinner for a car club
Happy Sunday. It is 32* but heading to 60*F. Nothing planned. I suppose the walk for exercise and some tenacious television watching. Have a good Sunday. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
I went for a walk. It was cold, maybe near freezing. And, when walking into the wind, it almost made me a coward. Then it started to rain, but it was not rain, but ice. Welcome to spring.
Greetings. Cold this morning. 33* feels like 25*. I wonder how the plants I secured from the church are making it down by the neighbor. She has not transplanted yet. Weather lousy. Easter Lilies and some other non descript names. Next week Mums but I think the neighbor woman is being overwhelmed and maybe I should not get any more for her. It has gotten to the point where I sneak in the alley and leave them on the trailer by the alley. I figure she has a million sisters and friends and she can get rid of them that way. Whatever! The weekend........... more people in the stores and more traffic. Have a reasonable day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Frost advisory until 8 AM. The good news is it is heading to 48* later. Does not look like any rain in the area. I am still pondering the situation with the lawn mower. Part of the problem is getting it home from the store. I still have a month before the situation becomes critical. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. 43* topping today at 53*. Living with some rain into the afternoon. Uncertainty of my agenda. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Happy HUMP DAY. 58* at 3 AM. Heading for 59* later. I am contemplating the lawn mower situation. I should buy a new one but I hate change. I most likely will be doing church in 3.5 hours Colonial time and so that will help clear the haze from the situation. Have a reasonable day. Don't get wet. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. I have a full plate today. I may go to church this morning. Planning on trying to fix the lawn mower. Worked on it yesterday with no success. I am expecting rain later, maybe a storm. Of course, these are plans and are subject to change. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Monday is here and so is this writer. Yesterday and Saturday, the temperature got up to 74°, I believe. It actually felt uncomfortable in my fortress for whatever reason. This will most likely be the last day in the 70s for the rest of eternity. It will be cooling down the rest of this week. Tomorrow will be the one year anniversary of a snowstorm which I believe we got 5 to 6 inches of snow. I officially ended winter yesterday by putting away the flow shovels. It really doesn't matter if we get more snow as I shall not be participating in shoveling any snow. Actually, I have not shoveled in quite a while. I think on my street the plow came through oly twice this winter that I recall. That is almost a record of scarcity in my colony, especially on my street. In either case, I shall be going out for my exercise in approximately an hour, maybe a little longer. This has really been an inconvenience for me not to go for my walk in the dark since the incident. I went out to throw out the water and the temperature felt good and cool. I believe it's 47° and after yesterday, that really feels great. Outside of that, everything in the world is perfect. Actually, the negatives are too numerous to mention. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Happy Sunday. It is 65* here at 3 AM, heading for 75*. I never thought we would see this again. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
some British who were involved in THE BRITISH INVASION of the Colonies
Good morning. Saturday, a day of people with real lives trying to assimilate into the fantasy world of the rest of us who live vicariously on the web. By definition and necessity I am drawn to the store today, most likely Walmart as I do not need a lot. I also do not need a lot of purchases on the bank card as I am far ahead of that quota. I miss the 24 hour service and agonize over the wait for 6 AM. Let it be typed, let it be done! Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet. And........ as Phil Esterhaus would say, Hey, let's be careful out there.
The ‘Dorothy’ Sweet Stores. 6 Merchant Street. Bristol, England 1902. I wonder if the clerk is still there. Hard to understand her. Back in those days, they spoke British. Some people there still do.
Good morning. Friday is here and so is this writer. 50* heading to 59*. Since discovering Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, the problem is that the younger me never thought there’d be an older me. However, this is good since the option was not getting older. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
