Time marches on...

2022

Really? In a couple weeks I'll have been kicking around here for 62 years? Hard to believe. I guess it's true what they say "time flies when you're having fun"~

Playing in the background...  Time by Pink Floyd

"And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death"

 

The thing about bodies is they don't tell you that joints actually wear out just like car parts.

We're playing a game called Supermarket Whack-a-Mole trying to find dog food for the dogs,  we'll go to Market basket, then Hannaford, and if necessary PetSmart in Manchvegas for the Purina1 food our dogs eat. Market Basket is out of their canned food 4 out of 5 times that we go. (Yes, we have an emergency dog food supply, and worst case they can eat what we eat).

The seed catalogs are starting to come in, I've been going through them seeing what's new for 2022, I saw seed for a 3 lb. tomato called Steakhouse that Burpee has this year.  Wow I can only imagine the tomato sandwiches I could get out of one of those, I may have to place an order for seeds.  We're still on the fence about putting in the large garden, we didn't get to do much fishing, or boating, and never mind camping last year so we may either scale back the vegetable garden or simply not plant one this year. We'll wait and see.

Dad called last week and mentioned they had tried a Pizza called the The Screaming Sicilian, he said it was great and we gotta try it.  We found them at Market basket, though online they only listed Walmart as carrying them.  We'll have it this week and I'll let you know, we normally buy DiGiorno pizza, so we'll see.

The Turkeys are back again.  Zeb and Hannah watch them out the dining room window, you can just see them against the snow in the pic below.

We're supposed to be SUB Zero (-3 degrees) on Tuesday Jan 11th, I have folks at work in Wisconsin and Minnesota talking about -46 with the wind chill, yikes.

 

A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying: You are mad; you are not like us.” St. Antony the Great

Could be a quote right out of an episode of the Twilight Zone...

 

Stay Safe, Stay healthy folks!
