Happy Saturday. Another nice day yesterday as I got out and about. Tuesday it will be turning cold. It will be October. Today, nothing scheduled. Maybe if ambition hits, I will go out and try to find the dead dinosaur I killed in my house and then threw on one of the neighbor's lawn this morning. I tried to find it at 4:30 when returning from my excursion, but it was too dark. I hate to put myself on Front Street in the daylight but I should get rid of it on city property. Of course most people would treat it as a Viking funeral and burn it on a bonfire in a boat on the water but that is not this writer. I like to do the proper thing. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Happy HUMP DAY. I went out for the walk this morning to a pleasant 50*. The high is heading for 77* so it should be a nice day to sit in the house on the computer keeping track of the Court TV cases and sports talk shows. On the walk this morning, I mused about the absence of the newspaper carriers and how I had to be vigilant of their vehicles coming down the street and putting this walker in danger. I like to walk in the streets. Some of them would even acknowledge this walker. They helped break the monotony of the walk of the miles of empty streets and the thought of ever seeing home again. In modern times it has been adults doing the deliveries but in my earlier times it was the kids doing it. In 20 years people will not even remember the paper being delivered to the door of the reader. A bygone time which I miss already. I am glad I am retired because I do not know how I would get along without the paper at work, or if I stopped at a restaurant for breakfast, how could I eat??? Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. The eve of the weekend is here and so am I. Get your good clothing on and head out the door. Have a so-so day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet! Postscriptum: don't be critical of the children for wearing white. This pic was taken the 23rd of July. I know how stern people are on the site for correctness.
Good morning. I was out for the morning walk this morning and the first sign of Halloween. Happy Halloween. Have a reasonable day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet! Post script: 1st time I saw these people do Halloween.
Good morning. Happy Sunday. It is about 49°F which is only five degrees warmer than yesterday but it felt warmer than that. I wouldn't go so far as to say I felt like going down the beach and do some dipping in the water but it made an acceptable exercise protocol. I went to Walmart yesterday. Not necessarily on an emergency assignment but there were a couple of items I felt like getting. I then remembered that I had only one egg remaining in the refrigerator and decided on making the purchase rather than having an emergency on Monday morning. The eggs were a prohibitive price, about $3.66 a dozen. The price has risen rapidly in the last couple of weeks. I then noticed an article on the Internet that some chickens had developed Salmonella which I suppose they had to destroy the chickens, and supply and demand could affect and wreck my wallet. In either case, it was about an hour later than I usually go to Walmart and so consequently I was able to view some people there for entertainment purposes. Not as good as the afternoon or early evening but something to do to pass the time and get my money's worth. I shall entertain myself today watching football and trying to get rid of some of the recordings on my DVR so I am not at 98% capacity on Monday morning when my talk shows have to be recorded. Outside of that, I have nothing planned. It is supposed to be warmer today than it was the last couple of days. I believe about 79° F. Considering the high temperatures have only been in the sixties lately, it will be an improvement. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Greetings this Saturday morning. Opening the day at 45*F heading to 68*. Felt somewhat cool this morning on the walk. I got the lawn done yesterday. Hopefully for the final time this year. Nothing planned for today except church later in the afternoon. There was an emergency stop this morning at the convenience store for bananas. As I entered the store I was humming the song about the lack of bananas, YES WE HAVE NO BANANAS, by Louis Prima. I am certain you remember him. Have a reasonable day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Happy LABOR DAY. 51* out this morning. When I started the walk, the sky was clear and one could see every star in this quadrant, the Alpha Quadrant. By the time I ended my journey, it was cloudy and fog started to come in. Not certain of an agenda but I will probably take the bike out for something to do. Game time decision. I may go to the shrine. I don't think I went there this year. Laziness. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Happy Labor Day Eve as I am certain most women know how that is. I am behind on the calendars. I got caught up with the football games yesterday so the day was non existent. I went out this morning to 61* although a temp gauge on the walk said it was 69*. I thought that had to be wrong as it felt cooler. Clear night enabled me to count all of the stars in the galaxy, well at least this quadrant. It was so nice that when returning to the Fortress I got out a chair and sat outside for a while with a continuation of counting the stars, I did not finish while on the walk, and I like to see rocks from space hit the Earth. The other day I secured some bananas, about a dozen. The problem was/is they are green. I am trying to ripen them but to no avail so far. Thus, no bananas this morning, or in the near future, unless I go and buy some at the store. Since it is a new month, I have to start the count on purchases anyway so maybe I shall. Have a good Sunday. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
