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. |
| Hello Grandsons and others it has been eleven days since I wrote last. Since I wrote last, we finished planting the gardens, We did two flea markets, went to the Northwoods to get planting done. I did get some items listed in the On Line booth. We did get the house gable vents installed. I did some shipping and all the normal things. BUT I am disappointed with myself. I can not seem to get all the things done that need to be done and find time study and read. When we are north I may find a bit of time to read philosopher's and study human personality types, genealogy, and Theology. I have always been a reader and quested for knowledge. But know it seems it is getting more difficult for me to do. I need to use a magnifying glass with a light. I get sleepy tired. But the worst is my mind just does seem to get sparked to take it all in. My mind is getting lazy. The words and thoughts and ideas do not flow to the top. I am going to structure more if that is possible, set aside a block of time to read and study. What I need is you young guys and your spongie mind that absorbs everything put to it. And while you are at it how about some of your energy. I have an online auction going off in fifteen minutes. So I will leave for now. I am back the auction is near over. I did win 4 lots of items. When during my earlier days a good on site farm auction boiled my blood. Tomorrow I need to take the van in for service. I am sure glad we only have one vehicle Till next time be Godly Blessed |
| Three Score and Now Eleven + Day 296 Hello, you Grandsons Have missed me, The alligators and wild dogs have been hot on my trail. I have had to keep moving or they will get me and eat me up. So much to do and so little time that is right to do it. I have been fishing only one time this spring, that being in the north. I did get a small meal of fish. You guys know the lake. I did get potatoes planted north. Now we will see how they do this year. Will the deer and potato beetles get them? With the price of gas as it is we will only go up twice a month. We may stay an extra day to give us the time we need up there. We did a flea market last Sunday and will do another this Sunday. The garden down here is doing well. Now keeping up with it is another story. The first crop of spinach and arugula is harvested and spinach replanted. The garden seems to grow faster each year and I get more tired each year, not a good combination. I need some young weeders and totters and doers like you guys. Lukas and Levi you will be stopping here on Friday on your way to camping. I always look forward to seeing you both. You both are growing so fast just like the weeds in the garden. but you are not the weeds. You are the First fruits of the family. I hope you both realize how Blessed you are. As for the others reading this I hope you are also well Blessed this day |
