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.

Today was bad news and good news. The bad news was the little Dog Biscuit had a bad night yelping in pain with any slight movement. We had him sleep with us thinking that might help, It did not. So we did not get good sleep either. We thought it might be his teeth. The good news was we did get him into see the vet. It sounds like he pulled or sprained some neck muscles. We were given some dog anti-inflammatory pain pills and told keep him quite and resting. After a few days we will see how he seems. If not better we will need to x-ray his neck. I think his neck problem is how he lies in his kennel, Side ways with his head cocked up against the kennel wall. A bad habit I would think he picked up as a puppy raised in a kennel. The kennel is plenty big but he does not often lie the long way.

We leave for the north woods tomorrow. I am not in a good mood to do so. Maybe I will feel better once I leave. I am starting to feel down. I have no good reason other then this scourge on our land. I will come back with the Ice Fishing equipment. No ice here yet, Maybe by January. I may be able to ice fish up there now. We are going to try and return earlier Friday. I hope you have a satisfying week.

3. National Roof Over Your Head Day. Tell us about the favorite room in your home.

I wanted to do a few key strokes to write about this house we call our home. It is a typical large late 1800's Queen Ann style home. With the normal many rooms, but they are smaller but very functional for the two of us. The room I spend most time in is the office library room. Being a large old home we moderately heat the whole house and supplement with electric heater in our occupied room. So that favorite room is nice and cozy surrounded with my books, papers and desk, table and computer. It is full but not cluttered. I do my internet business work in this room. We also eat in this room if we are alone. A house is a house but a house becomes a home with your personality given the time to do so. We will have been here 23 years this coming January. We love this home. We will not leave it easily.
