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 and Now Twelve + Day 132. 12-20-22 2022 Christmas, it is easy for me to get down during this dark cold time of year, But I do know that I should not get down. As we had a Blessed Christmas. The next-door neighbors came over Christmas Eve, we had a bite to eat and visited. We have been doing this most Christmas Eves for some time now. The family came Christmas Day and stayed later since the did not have to work the next day this year. We had a good meal the wife prepared with additions from the family. It was good to see the kids and grandkids. I had a good visit with Sonora Pearl who is the oldest Grand. She was 19 on Thanksgiving Day. Her world at 19 sure is different than mine was at 19. I would not trade her places. I worry and have concern for their new so called progressive new world. it seems to me like an individual regressive world to me. But that is another thought maybe for another time. The twin grandsons are growing physically and now starting to be showing their individuality, which is good. They are very close as there are no other siblings. They are now 13.The second grand daughter is 17 and preparing for college next year. It sounds like she wants to study to be medical technician of some sort. She is a very determined young lady. She will do well. The oldest Grandson is 18 and in the Marines. We are very pleased that he has taken this step going in the right direction. He had a difficult up bringing experiences and he could have easily made bad choices he didn't make. The youngest grandson is 10. He is sharp maybe too sharp. He lives in the own world in his head. i do not know what to think yet, Time will tell the story. So as you can tell. I should not feel down with so many family blessings. It help's me to write them down here and remind myself of it all. The days are still Dark and Cold, but I know it will not last. I will write again next year. I hope this year for you was a good one and the New Year will be even better. |
