I DON'T WANT TO GROW- I'M A TOYS......


I know these are silly-- but so what!

WE CAN ALL HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND. IT ALL STARTS WITH A SMILE AND AN ATTITUDE THAT SAYS, "YES I CAN!

It may only last an hour but it was worth the try.....






I'm not going to start another Weather Rant, about disturbed weather in the East, or why are Tropicals Depressed...

what I want to know is why in rush hour, bumper to bumper, stop & go traffic, on an INTERSTATE- they show you a "DOT cam of ANY-lane USA" and say:

"TRAFFIC IS PICKING UP in this area---"!!!

NO!    NO! IT! IS! NOT!-- It's frigging broken, Moron, TRAFFIC IS BROKEN..It's not picking up--and besides--I'm at home watching it--- What good is this LIVE camera shot going to do me? What are these people doing--don't tell me they are watching the news on the way home too, and Not just Texting while driving!


Now thy even have signs--lighted digital signs that 

TAUNT YOU!!!! and your tardiness!

as if there isn't enough road rage they hang these little dealies on the overpasses...--KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE ROAD WHILE YOU TEXT AND READ ALL THIS INFO!!!!!!

Travel time to Exit 56-- 8 mins
Travel time to Exit 58 a-- 12 minutes!

No it ISN'T!!- BECAUSE TRAFFIC IS  PICKING UP!!-- so how much time have I shaved off my 
evening commute during this "pick up'?

AND WATCH THE TRAFFIC ON THESE CAMERAS'--NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THE COUNTRY THEY, SHOW THE SAME EXIT AND SAME 14 CARS!!! LOOK CLOSELY--YOU'LL SEE, IT'S SUCH A FAST CUT- MOST PEOPLE DON'T CATCH IT!!!!

FILM AT 11:00 (ABOUT WHEN YOU GET HOME)

IF YOU STILL DON'T BELIEVE ME- WATCH- 

LA STORY-!!!!!!

RELOCATING: IN OUR OWN BACKYARD!


REQUESTING SIMPLE PRAYERS AND WELL WISHES FOR FINDING A NEW HOME!!!


Initially, we came to this rental  property - after Medical Hardships- caused our first house of 14 years to go bye bye. Is was during the last BIG recession also.... this one has been tougher!  This Rental- was an absolute Miracle from God....timing, place and price! 

We would be here a mere 6 weeks to 6 months max, while we weighed all our options, including a fresh start again back in FL. That was 10 years ago. Getting that awesome job at The Hospital ER/Urgent Scare was phenomenal.We are now really serious about finding us some new Diggs, in the Lexington SC/Lake Murray area. Basically- we don't want to move-- we just want a new place with New appliances- that will last us till we say Goodbye!

We are going to see about getting a Modular Home- very small, with little to no yard maintenance- Except THAT, which I choose to do! It could be an excellent time to get what we want at an excellent price. It's time for that and the Pontoon Boat. Between those two accomplishments we have successfully deluded ourselves that this will ultimately make us happy! I'll NEVER STOP DREAMING!

WE- have been working on the Happiness Factor, first by working on our OWN SELVES...making sure WE are taken care of, and then coming back to the relationship.... That way we are able able to go out from home with a Positive attitude to start with and that helps! It helps to spread the wealth and the good feelings outwards. Choosing to make this a fun time, and a time of exploration will make finding the perfect place all that much more:


PERFECT!


We want a very simple floor plan, but have found out lot's of little tricks and likes we want in a home. It will be cool- making it the way we want it! A true Custom design within a strict budget should allow for a nice retirement!

As this will probably be our last home, we need to think about building in Handicapped accessible areas, before they are needed, - Bathroom, Fixtures, Ramps, Door Width...etc, just a  really great project!




right back in here somewhere should do it!

INSECTS, IN SEX, PUPAE, LARVAE...WORKING THE BUGS OUT, RUSTY HOLE


The Helicopter strained under the massive weight. Simple tonnage itself made this lift extremely difficult, but the size in relationship to the Chopper just wasn't right!

Using every ounce of available horsepower it eased it's over-sized load to the ground right in front of me. Strange--but it was silent. All that work and not a sound.



The Wasp laid the Pupae down and walked off about 1 foot- stretching- and I swear I heard it say--"Dang that was heavier than I thought!

I kept waiting for it to come back and claim it's prize. I could only imaging what it was going to do to this Caterpillar. EAT IT! Maybe lay eggs in it and let the babies eat it alive as they grew. Take it back to a processing plant to get it cut up into freezer sized portions?
Instead I got bored and put it in a Fire Ant Bed.


I LIKE BEING NATURES' LITTLE HELPER!

FLOATING IN A SEA OF DEATH

BACK TO LIFE THROUGH A RUSTY HOLE



GOOD NIGHT

SHOT MY FIRST TURKEY!!!!!!


I shot my first ever Turkey Yesterday Morning Early. I have Deer hunted all my life but never Turkey Hunted. I finally decided to give it a try and 

shot my very first one on the first morning!



Scared the crap out of everyone in Frozen Food section of Publix- but it was worth it!



Woman's Poem

©Unknown 
 He didn't like the casserole
And he didn't like my cake,
He said my biscuits were too hard
Not like his mother used to make.
I didn't perk the coffee right
He didn't like the stew,
I didn't mend his socks
The way his mother used to do.
I pondered for an answer
I was looking for a clue.
Then I turned around and
smacked the shit out of him....

Like his mother used to do.

Just "JOHN"


Just a few more.....






OK--THAT SHOULD JUST ABOUT DO IT FOR THESE! 

HOPE TO BE BACK AND ALL CAUGHT UP MONDAY OR SO---BUT I AM WORKING ON IT.

Life has been exceptionally complex for the last few- weeks, months....YEARS...

It seems, that I have caught up, WITH LIFE---- and everything that I have really thought/worked through, have come up looking pretty Good! I am 99% sure that I caused most of the said "Complexities" myself. Handling them correctly and as soon as they appeared would have been the smartest of several choices.

I however...and some of the Complexity I caused --so there is nothing to do but handle it! Even if I didn't cause it- I would still have to "Handle" where I am now. I wanna go Low Drama!!! Way under the Radar--except for where I like to POP up, with as much control as possible.

I choose--Here and You!- to pop up. This is my Haven....with you guys!

Apart from a couple of solid, close friends, I just don't have the same number of Casual/Social Relationships a couple would have, at a Club or Party Circuit, or a Home based Faith/Worship Group, or any number of factors that define your social circle in different time periods of your life. also.. Those relationships usually go much deeper than the superficial level and you can really gain and appreciate the dynamic that is a friendship. True friendships, require special careful cultivation, love and care. But Oh, are they worth it!

I just went out yesterday with an Old Buddy from work. (One of those rare ones- where Both Husband's and Both wives get along famously---these are very special people!) We have very similar pasts in that we both had- Open Heart Surgery and 2 stents later we have exactly the same medical Hx- and happened to end up working together at Urgent Scare. The parallel's were uncanny, anyway..... This is the a type of the God placed friend, and not just a chance meet. I really believe we have special people that come along at just the right time in our lives.) That's just me. It's happened to me to many times to be coincidental.

We went to Best Buy- (the only time I can go is WITHOUT my wife! OMG__ we get into that store together and we are walking out with Deer caught in the Headlights WEHADTOPAYBECAUSEWEWERETOEMBARRASSEDTOASKANYONETOPUTANYTHING BACKSTICKERSHOCKON OUR FACES~!! we are both gadget crazy and Love Music and Movies--so-is that place a Death Trap for the Wallet to anyone else? 

where I left a $17.99 Metal Boxed Gift Set of The Best of The Moody Blues. We went to another store 7 miles away at a nice mall, and they didn't have that Box set. They showed it Back-ordered, and not available at ALL stores- and he didn't even show the other store had that one in! I started to run back and buy it- but I got The Best of Moody Blue's.. Santana's Greatest Hits, and Train's Newest CD.., I put back a Deer Hunting Game for the PC-- It was pricey- and since I quit Hunting (or have taken an extended break) from it--, a couple more accessories for the Wii--- It is still set up and LOOKIN' GOOD--Fit and TRIM!~

We then went to Five Guys and Had a Double Cheeseburgers with, (Insert Name of Idaho town fer Taters)
a large SWEET TEA!

We had an awesome time together, killed the better part of a day with out our wives ruining a shopping trip getting what we needed to get done leisurely- but still within a small appliances warranty period!!. In this brief span of thime we proceed to 

Fixed the Economy--- AND HEALTH CARE MOST OF ALL!!!. Take Credit for Making the New Well Cap WORK for the Gulf! Talked a LOT on Anatomy.  Gotta keep those skills sharp. Talked, family, future, what are you doing about getting your shed put in .....you know-
THE REALLY IMPORTANT STUFF!!!!! I am really blessed by this friendship, and this isn't Bob...my fishing Buddy--although Joe and I have fished too!

"I don't know you, but I Like You! Seems like I'm always...thinking of You....

I'll be your friend!  Hey-- I can lick my butt- sit & stay....wanna see?"......  Hope



Do you think about your current situation a lot, little, only when something seems to be wrong?
Are there, or are you exploring options, or  are they already put in place, in case of Emergency?
Do you know who, how, when etc. to ask for help? What resources are available?

Most of us can probably answer YES- to at least being able to know to at least ASK FOR HELP!!!!!

Some don't even have that luxury, privilege, break, opportunity, in LIFE!! Maybe we need to all give each other a break and keep pulling together. There's strength in numbers, and there is an exceptionally LARGE group, of fine people left in this Ole' World!

I do hope and pray that things are going well in your Life!

THIS IS TERRIBLY......TERRIBLY FUNNY & I DON'T KNOW WHY?

I THINK THIS IS HILARIOUS, AND SUMS UP WHAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE FEELING!!!


Whether or not you are a country music fan, these are truly the words of a deep thinker, and a highly intelligent person.

So simple, yet so profound!

Read the words of wisdom from that famous philosopher Willie Nelson, iconic country and western singer, on his 75th birthday below his esteemed portrait.

Only a man with such wisdom and maturity could be so concise and succinct in phrasing his feelings at this turning point in his life





"I have outlived my pecker."


A MOMENT OF SILENCE IF YOU WILL.....
THANKS!

And now for something completely different...


BE BACK REAL SOON.......
The Picnic

  A Jewish Rabbi and a Catholic Priest met at the town's annual
 4th of July picnic. Old friends, they began their usual banter.

"This baked ham is really delicious," the priest teased the rabbi.
"You really ought to try it. I know it's against your religion, but I can't
understand why such a wonderful food should be forbidden! You don't know  
what you're missing. You just haven't lived until you've tried Mrs. Hall's
prized Virginia Baked Ham. Tell me, Rabbi, when are you going to break
down and try it?"

The rabbi looked at the priest with a big grin, and said, "At your wedding."                                


touche!
