Bieber and the Olympics

Image
Hello one and all. Life for me is rather very dull at the moment. No real dramas in my life. But that's what happens when you have a hum drum kind of life. I do have one more project done. But I have not taken a picture of it yet maybe later. Plus I'm over half done with another one. Maybe I'll wait till I get the other one done, then post both of them. The rest of my life is not exciting either. I didn't work on Friday. It's that time of the year where we do get a little slower for awhile.  I'm tired of winter. It's been a very cold one so far. Tomorrow there is suppose to be a high of maybe 9 below zero. I think we are even colder then Alaska.  So I guess I'll talk about things in the news. How about Justin Bieber? Now I'm not into the brat or anything. I'm old enough to be his mother.  He is being a spoiled brat. From what I see at this point, he will only keep spinning out of control until he ends up just like Michael Jack...

What I do on my usually normal boring humdrum week

Image
Well for me this week has been kind of on the boring side. The only different thing I've done this week is start posting on my new blog. It's called, Dear Howard, A Fading History. It's based on the old letters, pictures, and scrap book that belonged to my Grandparents  http://dear-howard-a-fading-history.blogspot.com I thought instead of putting those things here I'd start a whole new place for them. It's still a work in progress as I'm still trying to decide what to all put on there for links and other things. So if you want you can check it out. As for the rest of my week. I'm tired of the snow. This the most snow we have had at this time year in a long time. The questions I've been pondering are, whether we will get all this snow now and have an early spring? Or is this the beginning of a very long winter season? Like we had last year. Last year the snow started a little later but hung around till May. Plus it was still cold in June last year...

Why do people want to blow themselves up?

Image
Hello one and all. I survived the bitter cold. But there was one tragedy. My poor car had to spend the time in the car hospital. It had to have a fuel pump transplant. It's now home and resting comfortably in the garage. Well I did get to drive it to work yesterday. So I guess you can say it's as fit as a fiddle. The bill of course did damage to the bank account. Hopefully it will recover and get back to at least looking a bit better then it does now. I'm thinking this year I'm going to try and put more humor in this blog about my boring, hum drum life. It's time I opened up and show more of my goofiness. Not to say I won't still rant and comment about other things in the news, because you know I will. So that being said there is one newsy thing that is worth commenting on that happened just the other day over near Wausau. A house blow up. I'm surprised it has not been on the national news because of what they found. Not only the house blowing up...

What to do while I hibernate

Image
It's cold outside. How cold is it? 8 below, with a wind chill of  22 below at 6:11 in the am. I do not plan on going out much if I can help it today. I will have to take care of my outside animals. So I have to go out to do that. The husband said something about going to town to get some extra gas for the generator just in case the power should happen to go out. It shouldn't, but you never know. I wasn't sure what I wanted to post right now so I decided to open the dictionary, randomly. Point to a word, then Google it and see what kind of images pop up. The word was habeas corpus. Here is the first one. I think I'll see if I can find another word, lets see.... Grant. The first image is.. Ulysses S. Grant. Actually that's exactly what the dictionary had first as a definition. Well that's enough random things. I plan on working on the projects. I do have all three baskets done and two sets of the fish. I'm still working on the ones that ...

Happy New year 2014!!

Image
This is going to be my year!  I can feel it! The pondering questions are, will I know it when it happens? Or will I only see it after the fact? I'm hoping to have many great adventures and challenges. I've got two going so far. My projects. And my exercise bike challenge. There is room for so many more though. Like finally getting something going for all the old letters and pictures. Finding myself opening up more and not being afraid to express myself more.  To stop being over critical of myself. Believe in me. A few things I think the world needs less of are as follows: Miley Cyrus and her trying to be the most shocking person. My words to her would be, "It's not shocking, you are just demeaning yourself and will regret it later if you are not already." Justin Bieber, and him being a spoiled kid who is just showing the world he also has no self respect. My words to him would be, " Step back and take a good long look at yo...

The end of 2013 and looking forward to 2014

Image
Well Christmas is over. I hope everyone enjoyed their time with family and friends. Mine I guess you can say was uneventful. At least nothing earth shattering happened.  Like allot of the country we had a white Christmas. This is the whitest Christmas we have had in a long time. This picture was actually taken the day before Christmas. On Christmas it snowed lightly all day so there is even more snow piled up.  Anyway now that 2013 is almost over, finally. It's time to start pondering the future of 2014. What will this year hold for the world? What will it hold for me? What kind of new dramas will be exposed?(As if we didn't have enough in the last one).  The world is run by drama. Some is bad like losing lots of money, dealing with drama queens, con artists, politicians, control freaks, people that are able to really work but would rather find away to get something for no real effort on their part or someone being very selfish and blaming others for their...

Affluenza?

Image
How did we get to this point that this is an excuse for doing something really bad and it's excepted? But that's exactly what happened to this person. I can't really call him a kid and he is not an adult. He, in my book, is a very spoiled person. With parents who are using everything they can to get him out of murder. They seem to be proud of their rank among us.  But it's the one thing that keeps the wedge between the haves and the very hard working people of the world. And it is only getting worse.  The ones with lots of money are doing all they can to make sure the ones who have very little stay that way. Plus they like to rub it in the average persons face from time to time. With the mega Millions jackpot over a half a billion for tonight it will create another one or more to join the club. Everyone wishes to join this club but if you really don't use your head you will be worse then suffering from affluenza. You will be a target for every lunati...
