You guys keep me going. I live in fear that I am slighting one of you and you might think less of me. I think it happens to all of us boomers at one time or another. What joy it is to turn on boomer and writterdeb and all the rest who say hey in the shoutbox, catch a recipe (I've already tried the shrimp fried rice), and see who is up and active. We all know who is most active. And we even have Active1951. I know most of the daily words but can't spell them without spell check. How would you like to have an editor who catches every mistake you make? Thank God..I have mine....
I'm a morning guy but I'm not. I get up early but it takes lots of coffee to get my mental energies energized so I don't say much but read a lot. I go through 10 newspapers and a bases loaded list of sports sites. I feed my brain with information I will retain like super glue but don't ask me what happened 5 minutes ago. Long gone like a Ted Williams homer...
I read the nice comments I get and I'll never live up to those billings but I do believe I'm almost famous. I have said bumper sticker on Blue to prove it. I'm kidding of course but a long time ago I set out to tell readers about where I live in the woods and describe to you the beauty of what I see so you can feel like your walking the trail with me. And you have been there. Every step ofthe way. Break life down to simple terms without the hoorah of the city life or anyone that actually has a life. I have a life but it's no where near the life most of you have. Remember that game LIFE? I played it a lot as a kid......
Together we can get through these hard times. Here on the lake I'm not saying a word about how I'm broke to Kris. He came here to get away from the bills he has, the cut hours and maybe having to sell his beloved Harley. That would be like me selling Blue. I don't talk much about he worries about his mother and how he may have to take her in soon. I think this is why he hasn't married. Mom has always been number one to him. I feel his pain....
I'm never alone as I fight my battles. I have family. I have friends and I have my BOOMER friends. That's a trio I'll go to bat for. Like my Grampa Plankey once told me; The sun even shines on a rainy day...
Happy Monday my friends..
Easy...
