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. |
| Three Score and Now Twelve + Day 125. 12-20-22 Hello Grands and All others We just had our main daily meal after coming back from grocery shopping. What a zoo it was. The people were getting ready for Christmas and too an upcoming snowstorm which to me does not sound really serious to me. There were more than normal empty shelves with what I noticed as much higher pricing. I sure was glad to get back home. We did get some eye drops for eye tear lubrication. I went to see an actual eye doctor on Monday. he does not think the problem is cataracts, but he thinks it is from prolonged dry eyes. Which has made my eyes as he said like they have sandpaper on them, rough and scaled. So, he recommends Eye drops and hot compresses on my eye's multiple times a day along with flax seed oil pills twice daily. I will go back and see what he thinks again in February. Hopefully the scale will dissolve away and allow more light into my eyes. I never realized or considered dry eyes as that big a problem. I will try to follow the advice. I think the hardest experience for me is the grocery store. The isles piled up high with a lot of lights and glare. I have two follow the wife too know where I am at. My brother said something to think about a couple of years ago. He said you get old in the winter months. Where he got that from, I do not know. but it does seem to be true. I feel I am aging more this winter. but I am looking forward to daffodils and tulips blooming this spring. Since I will not be ice fishing this season, I will be Bitting at the bite to go kayak fishing this coming spring. I may need to purchase a long-desired Kayak trailer so me and the wife can both go. We both wish all of you a Blessed Christmas day with family |
