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 am just getting home from fishing, had a bit to eat and so know I can take the time to write. Just when I think the days can not go any faster they do. I did not leave here for the lake until near 4:00. We did our early month shopping first and Then I mowed grass and had dinner. I did get a meal of fish this time out. But the water is still cold. Even after our 80+ degree days the water was still only 59. We did get a inch and a half of rain that was badly needed. I managed to get a small plot of Sweet corn planted just before the rain. On May 1 I did get the Cauliflower, Brussel sprouts and Red Cabbage planted. I tried taking a short cut and did not put the shading up on the plants. Then it really got hot with dry humidity and they wilted down. The good news is they recovered. We did do the Flea Market on Sunday. It was busy with people. And they did spend some money. But we only have good stuff so sell. We did have a good day. On a another note of goodness there was not any husband, wife fireworks. That is always a plus. If the blog some has misplaced words, blame Luna the cat. He insisted on lap sitting and helping. How do you tell a big Tomcat he help cannot, You don't. Tomorrow I will need to unload the van, Then load the van for my brothers garage sale I will help him get ready for on Thursday. [Luna just got off my lap as the wife and dog just left the room. We have a real zoo here]. Then I hope to dig up a spot that needs attention and plant some Lavender plants there after trying to save some coreopsis, potting them up for planting in the north woods. Then I there will be fish to clean at some point. Do you hear that?. It is the Wild Dogs howling. They are getting ready to chase me tomorrow, They will be at my heels. But I will rest good tonight and I will be ready for them tomorrow. I hope you have a great rest also. |
