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.

Well its time to say Good By Month, January is in the can as they say. It was been decent temperature wise but I am getting tired of handling snow. I was out there again a lot today, I am tired. February will start of with a bag. I ordered a new Kayak and it arrives tomorrow. I sure hope there was no problems with the shipping from North Carolina. Then tomorrow they are going work on putting Fiber Optic cable in the Sidewalk easement area. That should be lots of fun with all the snow and frozen ground. I told them nothing on my side of the sidewalk. They seem like they are trying to please. I hope there is no problem. I will admit I am very territorial of our property and I am also very respecting of others territory and property. Then on Friday they are coming to put new carpet into our main Bedroom. We have been here 24 years and the carpet when we moved here was not new. It is looking pretty dingy now. This wife picked out a medium dark green color, It should match the wall paper nicely. There never seems to be a dull boring moment in our lives.

I wanted to write this evening about boxes. The kind you put things into. I like nice neat square boxes that stack nicely and I can put lives events into them. With everything planned and coordinated so it can be boxed up nicely and stored. Or maybe displayed at times. It is upsetting for me to face chaos or bad preparation. There are times I wonder if I could at times put my guard down. but I am afraid to do that, I know now other way to be. I may be compulsive somewhat but I need for things to flow as needed and planned for.
The year 2020 was not easy to put in a box, it was messy. As I say we shall see, about 2021. The yearly to do goals are written down. And so after this week a bit will be done, So it is starting out right. But the year is young. I am not putting together a group of boxes yet.
