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. |
| I guess I am falling down on the job or I am getting busy. Today is spring and I will get in the fast lane soon, Much to do and so little time. But I will try to make entries here as a priority. As you can tell we are back from the north woods. There is still snow in the woods and shadows. I went ice fishing both days and got three meals of crappies for the wife and I. I then put the Ice Fishing gear away for another year. At this stage of the game I can not but wonder if I will get it out again. I did get to trim the Blue Berries. I have six more Blueberry plants coming the end of May. Every thing looks like it should up there. I did not sleep well last evening, I will never after all these years get used to living in a town with there ideas of what needs to be done. Now it is replace our incoming water line this summer, It never ends. It upsets and stresses me thinking about it. I have always gone with the idea of if it is not broke don't fix it. I will always be a Country Boy. You only fix what needs fixing and you work with what you have, When need be. Today It was very nice out, The first day of spring. I uncovered some perennials in the beds. Tomorrow we will remove straw from Garlic, Strawberries and Winter Onions. We now have bulbs blooming and many other are coming along. Did I say "I Love Spring" In the bid to make life a bit easier I will write on enticing prompts now on this Blog entry. I do not want to get Bogged down. The Writing for me I do not want to become a chore. I is supposed to be something for the Grandkids, It is supposed to be of interest to you, and therapy for me. "What lesson do you remember most vividly from your childhood"? Some where along the trails of life, I have come to: Keep your options in a situation open as long as possible. Be careful with your commitments and promises. Once made, They are made to keep. And you need to live by them, The promise is your Word and Reputation. |
