Psalm 90:10, "The length of our days is seventy years—or eighty if we are strong....
Three Score and Ten the Introduction,

Well here we go, After 50 years I am going to take another attempt at writing. The first time was the Palmer writers correspondence school in 1969. The writing will be not a book that will be written with the idea of being published, But will be a writing of thoughts unencumbered by possible publishing and monetary gain. This writing will be a hybrid of Journal and Reminisce. It is important to me that the writings are my true thoughts at the time, not influenced by any factor. The writing will try to explain how a 70 year old white, male USA citizen now relates to today's world. Is every oldest generation lost in their own world, that they aged into? What do I see, and feel as I age farther. I know I am not normal as in what this world today would consider normal. But I hope I am in the ball park writing the thoughts of a 70 year old. I hope for you to learn to know who I am, As I search for Who I am at 70+ This work will carry on until I am no longer able to think or write. This will be done on a nearly daily writing interwoven with a life's reminiscing. This writing has been in the planning for 10 plus years. and I have now made it to this starting point. This writing is dedicated to My Wife The Kitten, My family, My grand children, Lukas, Levi, Luis, Lydia and Sonora Pearl. I thank you God that you have allowed me to have your Three Score and Ten Time.

It is morning and I slept good. Now if I can write as I go along today. I am working old 1930' and 40's Colliers and Saturday Evening Post magazines at this time. Most are decent shape, but I am finding some have been clipped. I hate that. It is so easy to miss the clippings when I do a listing. Some back covers are missing that was not shown in the auction. So I sort them out.

It is 5:00 and I am just getting back to the Blog Post. Isn't it strange how you start a project and it snowballs on you. One thing leads to an other and the afternoon is shot. I started out cleaning out our Trunk Room. The trunk Room is what it sounds like, a room like an attic room used for storing trunks and what ever. Ours is the size of a small bedroom and it is full of Vintage Antique Paper Ephemera and Vintage Antique Christmas decorations. It is a organized full. The problem is we have a large old Queen Ann home that the bats love. So every year I need to vacuum Bat droppings from below the peak area. This sounds worse then it is, But needs to be done. But doing so I look at this and that as I move boxes out of the way. So it takes longer then it should. It is not heated so I do it before it gets real cold.

The I went out to the garage and decided to readjust the shelves and supports on two shelving units to give them more strength. It is project I had hoped to get to before winter. That was a can of worms. I thought it would be simple, NOT. I needed to remove everything. When as I started to move a component, I had to move two others. But the good news is one unit is done and reloaded. and it is much better to load. I started the second Unit to finish tomorrow.

It looks to be painting weather tomorrow. And it looks good for next week. I am getting a handle on the Fall To Do List. I hope you are also getting a handle on your Fall To Do List. Just watch out for those cans of worms.
