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 Ten + Day 233 I have spent the most part of the last two days in the garden. I started out dressed like it was March 6. I changed clothes as I went along. It was nice out but a bit warm for this time of year. And it is Dry, We need some rain, a nice warm spring soaker. We got our Onions, More Spinach. Romaine Lettice, Red Lettice, Arugala, and our main planting of Radishes. Then in between I did some painting on our hose posts. And then of course I have to gets hoses out. Then first thing out I have hose repairs to do. Now normally I have just about everything a hardware store could hope to have. But this time I could not find a male end in my hose parts. So we also needed some batteries and photos printed from the Kentucky trip. So off to that Wall Market place. The wife got the batteries and the photos. But the hose end has a dead end. That place has to be the worst excuse for a garden department that there could be. Lots of hoses but no honest hose repair parts. Just buy new evidently, no one fixes anything any more. I went home and went into my stash and found two bags of male hose ends. I saved a couple of dollars and that big box lost a couple. Tomorrow there is I hope rain. I am ready. We will go shopping in the big city, Do banking and an Oil change on the van. Then back home to make phone calls trying to line someone up to re-roof the garage. It is hard to find someone to do a smaller job. At my age I think I will stay of roofs. I am not as steady as I once was climb around on top of silos. I hope you have a Blessed Evening |
