…Stupid if you open your mouth too much, and that is
definitely true for someone like me…who never ever shuts up!
Even when I write it is always the same, no absence of
space until my motor runs down.
Truth is that I do talk as I write and vice versa.
Never ending, silence is too harsh for me to deal with
and that is my reasoning… why I do it.
To me dead quiet is frightening.
And I do often wonder why that is?
You see, even if I am all alone I must have some form
of white noise, usually the TV in the background humming even if it is two
rooms away, like ours is now, being in the living room, with me in the sun-room
and Hubby’s outside watering the potted plants under our lanai.
That is a bald faced lie!
Right now the TV is off in the living room and the
only noise, other than what my brain is telling me in my head to write is this
noisy keyboard, aha! Fooled me...you too?
Although, Hubby just passed by this windowed door with
our watering can and then went back to the rain barrels to refill!
He is not stealth all of the time, but on occasion he
is…
Dinner is done, we had left overs, since we went down
to Punta Gorda today and ate out, again, this time at the Crab House on the
water there… I had points for ten dollars off any entrĂ©e of twenty-five dollars
or more and so we went! Hubby had a Grouper Reuben and I had crab tomato bisque
soup with a Crab Louie salad, mmm, mmm good! Coffee for him and unsweetened
iced tea for me with extra lemons, but of course.
The reason for the trek down there when nothing else was
actually scheduled or going on at any of those venues, how weirdly quiet too?
Any-who, Hubby received one of those come on down to see if you won $25,000 or
two lottery tickets or $100 from a very reputable auto dealership, in fact the
one we bought our car from back in 2001. It is called, Palm Auto Mall, since
they carry several different makes of brand new vehicles and used ones too and
has been there for a very long time…since 1955, gosh they are almost as old as
me, ha!
Of course we won the lottery tickets that were only
scratch offs, and were losers, worthless, but we expected that!
It was something to do…
Hubby met a gentleman that was willing to show him a
new Toyota Sienna mini van although Hubby explained that we might not be ready
until next year to seriously look. And he was very nice and didn’t seem to mind
at all…and showed Hubby all the bells and whistles although, we will be looking
then for a leftover new one and you never know what’s available then, and we
really would prefer a Town and Country by Chrysler, we will see… We will try
saving some big bucks by then.
Not having any major things to pay off right now we
have a bit more in our pockets to save and I already started this month, so who
knows?
Barring any emergencies, ha, who am I kidding we
always have those!
But we will have that saved for.
Our SUV now has less than 40K original miles on it,
although it gets lousy gas mileage, but it was paid for years ago…and so that
is why we stay pretty much always in our ten mile radius, with so much here and
gas prices rising daily, not too bad, really!
*Did you see that eleven cent increase in just one
day?
Thursday, Sam’s Club’s gas was 3.41.9 a gallon and the
next day it was 3.52.9 a gallon, yesterday, Friday! Must be due to what’s going
on in the Middle East… and the holiday
weekend?
I give up trying to figure it all out.
It is what it is and that is only about gas prices;
the other stuff is all tremendously frightening to me and you too I am more
than sure, their annihilation of human beings!
If we don’t intervene what does that mean about us?
That we are heartless?
I think of how long it took for us to get involved in
WW2! And we all know what the result with that wait was.
We have to figure the best way to stop this inhuman
behavior and let those who believe otherwise to know it cannot continue!
We are definitely walking on eggshells with this;
hopefully the powers that be will do the right thing.
I hate leaving you with that last thought, albeit an
important one to ponder, since many feel to stop us from getting involved in
another war and have launched protests to that affect today alone… Geez, you
are singing to the choir here! But if there is a way to let them know that they
have to stop without, as the president said, without boots on the ground; then
I say let’s go for it!
And I support that decision whole heartedly!
On that note of a bit more positivity, allow me to be
the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly
count all your blessings and share all your overages with you know who and we
will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!
PS if I waited for a conversation to ensue while
writing this… it would NOT be a BLOG, it would be a … WHO KNOWS WHAT? HMMM?
