Good morning--It is hot-hot -hot-- The AC is flying-- The sun is out-- and both dogs did their business--so-- what a way to begin a day!--We have bananas----perhaps groceries to-morrow--and, I hear we might even get rain to-morrow-- That will settle the forest fires around here--Now isn't the above the truth?--- We older people have so much packed into our head, that to "download" it all, it takes time.--- I thought this would make yer day.
Someone sorta mentioned that I do not include men in the blogs-- I suppose I write for everyone really-- perhaps weighted more for the woman of the house--- I believe it was kinda insinuated that I am hard on the male---LOL---- I certainly never mean to be--- I mean, we could not live without the men in our lives and I do love my husband, who worked so hard all his life to send all our 455 children (well, it seemed that way)- to University and Colleges, at least 999 times---But, women kept the home fires burning--so this could occur--and , women had all these little bodies, cooked and cleaned and this goes on still--and perhaps being a woman, I am sorta biased-----especially when I get up at 5am and finally flop into bed at 10pm--
Usually I feel most days, like the above, -- because in my older age, life is extra busy, taking care of an elderly husband--To-day I am hoping to weed whack the hill, going to the lake-- I hate that job--I have already called the wonderful kind soul (and he is a man!)----to restring my 3 weed whackers after balancing on this hill , as I chop the weeds-- He tells me to bring them down (town) anytime before 5pm--Bless his heart to do this for me--
It is Friday--I hope that your weekend is great! -- Get out that "Getto blaster"--turn it up--full blast, and SING---It will put life in your years!
Hi Lynda, it's Kathy. Honestly I have never read anything that would suggest that you are hard on men so whoever said that was reading in between the lines. You write about YOUR life and we enjoy hearing about it. Some days are very challenging and you share that too. Some days are really challenging for me too and my husband is younger than I am so he is able to do more. But, he usually only does what HE wants to do! So keep on telling us about your days!
ReplyDeleteOh Kathy---Yes, I write mainly for the woman of the house--because, --I firmly believe it's us who keep the world going around--WITH THE HELP of the man--maybe-- LOL--- I just did the hill--so now it looks from the lake that civilized people live here-It really is a lot of work to keep this place going-- but--- I like to see it looking nice--do not know if we ever moved if I could start all over again-- so--this just may be where stay-Lynda --So good to hear from yu--hugs
DeleteNot writing about men? It’s your blog! Lol. I think that some people need something to complain about. Well, come to think about it, it seems like that’s all people do anymore.
ReplyDeleteI spend a lot of time in my flowers. No complaints and they seem perfectly fine with whatever is thrown at them. In this day and age, one must take care of themselves before you can take care of others.
I love your blogs. It is your blog so you can write whatever comes to mind! If it is about food, animals, family, hair, or men - it’s your thoughts! I don’t write much…. Can never find the right words. You do that delightfully. Even if it’s hard situations. Carry on…
Have a wonderful weekend.
Jacquie
VERY hot here to-day--over 30C----I am heading down to get the weed whackers restrung-- Bless Bill At the Nappa place--
DeleteLynda
I never meant anything at all that you are hard on men, good lord! Not sure how you could get that kind of feeling. It’s we women constantly being teased and joked about as being absent minded and crazy in many memes!
ReplyDeleteOK----
DeleteWe made it to Friday! And you have bananas! Doesn't get much better than that. Hope your day and the weekend ahead are smooth sailing at your place... and that rain really would be welcome!
ReplyDeleteYu gotta love Friday---LOL-Lynda
DeleteHi Lynda: I love your memes today about our brains - how true! I don't know who thinks you don't talk about men at all - you talk about himself at lot
ReplyDeleteYes Brenda-- We really live on an old gravel pit-thus the weed whackers hit the rocks-- so hoT to-day--Lynda
Deletedon't know how above posted before I was finished! You also talk about your kids, etc. It sounds l like its too hot to be doing the weeds today. Didn't you just get the weed whackers re strung a few weeks ago? you must have to use them a lot. Now stay in ans relax where it's cooler. have a good evening. Brenda
ReplyDeleteThe AC has been running for days--- Lynda
DeleteRainy today in Ohio but we needed it. You always work so hard, Lynda! It's a lot of work to keep things looking nice. I hope you rest when your company comes. Relax and enjoy. I like your blog just the way it is! You make so many happy to share your thoughts here. It is appreciated. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYu are so good --thank yu--- Everyday seems busy doesn't it--- I try to get the outside stuff done in the mornings-- now-Lynda
DeleteHi Lynda….I can totally relate to the files in my head…I know I’ll think of whatever it is I can’t immediately recall…just not sure when that might happen! Too much stored there!
ReplyDeleteYou are strong to be able to hold and maneuver a weedwacker…that is something that I never learned how to operate. ❤️Eissa7
it isn't fun weed whacking--especially on a hill-- a steep hill--but i did it--It looks better now --like people live here-Lynda
DeleteI'm late replying. I love your blogs and no you do not say anything in particular about men. Someone must have interpreted things from their personal perspective. Its your blog. Write about whatever you want. I'm so glad you share your day, your stories, your kids and pets plus your occasional struggle with DH. We all know how much you love your family and pets. Keep on keeping on. I get a positive boost, smiles, laughs and strength from your daily shares.
ReplyDeleteGlad you have banannas lol. Thank goodness for the NAPA man. Hes so helpful and kind. The constant work outside makes ME tired lol.
Hope you are in the AC playing your piano.
Hugs
Yes I had the weed whackers restrung--thanks to the Nappa man--Tis very hot still-AC on-- so nice of yu to write-lynda
DeleteGood for YU TO MEET YER step goal-Now why do yu have swollen glands?--Is it a virus of some sort? Nice of your friends to help yu out with those bins.---and I like your pink light--It is always good to hear from yu-Lyndang
ReplyDeleteOnce again, my comment is not here. Can't remember just what it was, but I can say that I do remember week whackers. The cord always broke on the king we had and I could never get it to work again. {{{HUGS}}}
ReplyDeleteI don't think you have ever written anything dissing men .... you write about your disappointment occasionally with the children...and how Fred is and is not doing...............so I don't think you come down on men at all. I went back and read some of the comments, and the lady said she did not mean you dissed men, she was a little misunderstood on how she phrased it.
ReplyDeleteGlad the guy at NAPA takes care of your weedwhackers for you and do be careful outside when it is so hot, so you do not get overheated. I have had heatstroke and it is NOT pleasant.
Hugs Lynda....stay strong.
PS: If anyone knows of a fix for coughing(allergies) that is on the natural side, let me know............I have kidney disease and cannot take OTC products. Thanks bunches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
