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 Thirteen+ Day 13, 8-30-2023 Yes, I know it has been awhile since I have written I just can not seem to get the desire and urge to write and I do not know why. I will attempt to understand why. I have now passed another year. I should be up that I made it another year, but I feel down. The aging thing is catching up on me. I guess I feel okay. and I suspect I am better then many others and I am grateful for that. The real problem is in my head. I am loosing my motivation and drive. With my eye problems I know face the realization I won't be able to do all I would yet like to do. I have managed to keep all the balls in the air this past year. So for me the aging thing is mental and coming to terms with it. and on top of coming to terms with age my mind is not working as it was Before Stroke, which is BS. As for the eyes, the cataract surgeries went well. I had a inflammation flare up a couple of days ago, but it is now under control. I got my new glasses yesterday. I am disappointed with them. I guess I see sharper close up, But in the house the rooms seem darker then they should be. The outside can be too bright for the eyes without shades. My thinking is I will need to adapt to what is. I will not give in easily. We are going to go with a fiber optic internet service. They are coming to do the installation tomorrow. We have a very minimal DSL service know. I hope the new service which should be much faster will make the computer react faster. Sometimes it just does not seem to want to go. The copy and paste function is terrible. I did take the internet store off line before the cataract surgery. I could not see to ship. Now I will wait until after the internet service change, making sure all is good before bringing it up again. I think I will see well enough to ship with the new glasses. As I think I have written earlier we lost our Little Dog last February. We are now in the process of deciding if we are going to get another dog and what it would be. We can never replace our Little Biscuit. The vegetable garden has been decent but has taken a lot of city water. But water is still cheaper then groceries. I did manage to fish up north a few times but not down here. We hope to go up after Labor day to do some chores and hopefully fish some. I will try to be more consistent with posting to this blog. It does help the mental situation to write and try to put things in order. But things will never be easy. Luna the Big Kahuna Kat sends his greetings, Stay Blessed |
