Woke Up Tired

Woke up tired – again – this morning. I am not sure how that works. I go to sleep when my head hits the pillow and carry on sleeping until around 7 in the morning. Usually that is about 8 hours a night. Seems like that ought to be plenty – donchathink?

I got the after lunch nap down to a science. For some reason – no matter when I actually go down – I sleep an hour – give or take 5 minutes. Rarely I can have a nap after dinner – that one being around 45 minutes.

I am ‘regular’ for a lot of things in my life – perhaps that is why I get anxious when events don’t follow my plan – heheh. Could be mild OCD – ya think?

No matter.

The other day I checked and found I continue to earn an average of pennies a day on my Adword account. Nice steady income – too bad it is not an average of dollars a day. I am working on it…

Yesterday a new Info Site was uploaded – one for the Guys - Six-Pack Abs. At least I think that Guys are the only ones that get Six-Pack Abs. You Ladies can point the Guys in the right direction to get some new Info – heheh.

Okay. It’s time to try for a quiet weekend – again. The World hasn’t seemed to be getting my message – but I will continue to try.

Let’s have a ‘break for Peace’ this weekend and consider where the World is headed. Take Care. ReV

Let’s listen about it.

Birthdays

Birthdays are an interesting concept – at least in the US. Every year we – or friends and family – celebrate the anniversary of the year of our birth. To me – it is sort of a nice time to recognize someone and mebbe give them a present and make them feel a little more special for one day. Not a bad thing to do.

But what about them other birthdays? Like the dead Presidents – famous people – religious figures? What about family? Today would have been my Father’s birthday. We don’t celebrate it. But ever since he passed – more than 30 years ago – no matter where I am – I give my Mom a call. Just because.

I pretty much think of my Father every day – no matter what is going on. I often wonder if I am living up to my Father’s expectations. Probably not. But I miss Him on the other end of the phone line saying ‘hi.’ We never talked that much – usually after I left home I would call in and talk to Mom as she usually answered the phone.

The Wife is heading over to Mom’s to spend the night and do a little laundry and see if Mom needs help with anything. So I will be here with the dogs and hanging out. I might even do something constructive – heheh.

Happy Birthday – Dad.

Puppies Get A Beach!

Because of so many people that are irresponsible – and don’t pick up after their pets – there hasn’t been a beach in this whole county that has allowed pets. And this county has something like 60 miles of beach! That’s really a shame – but only service dogs are allowed. However – after much promotion and meetings and talking and promises – there will be a short section of beach – right down the street from our Coach – where puppies are allowed. Woowoo!

The dogs will still have to be on a leash – but they will be allowed. At first – there will be ‘citizen’ watchers that make sure everyone takes care of their animals and cleans up – but once everyone gets used to it they are planning on owners policing themselves. All this is not a problem to us because we take care of our dogs all the time anyway. Our only problem will be only taking 2 at a time as we think all 5 would be harder to control as far as barking and such. We are looking forward to having the puppies see all the water. That’s all about a month from now.

Hey – we know how it is when people don’t clean up after their pets – we see it all the time. As far as we are concerned – it is the height of irresponsibility. You just carry a couple poop baggies around. No problem.

So – I got a new Info Site uploaded for You - Fish Oil! Sound like a fun Site – eh? I take some of that stuff every day – heheh.

Days To Go

The Wife and I went to see Mom yesterday and then we both looked over the little park by the Indian River off the causeway near Mom’s house. I think – on the Google Maps – it is the Melbourne Causeway. It is a really nice little park – but a tad windy yesterday. We both took a few pics anyway – but we may return on a less windy day. That’s okay – we have Days To Go in our retirement to go there again. Lotsa days – heheh.

I have decided to purchase some jack stands to put under the Motor Home. The hydraulics are so old that the pressure built up to raise the Coach slowly eases up and the Coach goes down real slow. So I have ordered some heavy duty jack stands – I think – to put under the frame after I get the Coach raised and leveled the way I want it.

Wow! It only took me about a minute to write that out and I suspect it will be days in real time to get the job done. It will not be easy. I will need the Wife to help – radio communications – and tactical use of pads – jacks – and thick pieces of wood to get ‘er done. I doubt seriously that it will be easy.

You might remember that with a try every month it took me 5 months to get the one jack to retract so that I could get the Motor Home up at all. This will be a more concentrated effort – but the jack stands are on the way so I should start soon with the lowering and trying to get that jack to retract where I want it.

I have been mulling this whole situation for several days and ordered the jacks a couple days ago. Oh – the cost of the jacks is only about $100 – the cost of repairing the entire hydraulic and jack system on the Coach to work correctly would prolly be a couple thousand. We shall see.

Confidence is the feeling you have before you understand the situation.

Monday Morning Notes

Indian River

I live on the other side of the river. On the other side of the large hotels is the Atlantic Ocean. Life is Good. The river is about a mile wide and the barrier island is about another mile wide. Woohoo!

I looked and looked and finally decided I couldn’t easily put an eMail link on the front page. It is more a matter of not knowing how this beautiful Blog software works than not having the basic software skills. But – You can always put in a ‘real’ comment and if it really is about me or my work or what I say – I will see it. You prolly knew that already – heheh.

We had a fairly quiet weekend – all I did of any value was Surfing. Couldn’t work up the gumption to go take pics – however – I scoped out a place to go and the Wife and I may go there later. It is next to the Indian River but about 5 miles South of the pic above.

Think About It

The fact – obvious from any reading of the newspapers – that humanity has not become much wiser over the past two thousand years, in spite of a prodigious increase in rational knowledge, is ample evidence of the impossibility of communicating absolute knowledge by words. –Fritjof Capra

On the Move

Not us. We just sitting here trying to get on with our lives. But the ‘neighborhood’ – all the Motor Homes and RVs – are quite active these days. You drive around the Park from one day to the next and there will be at least 1 new neighbor parked and another gone their . . . → Read More: On the Move

No Rest For the Wicked

Or is it ‘weary?’ I dunno. I just know I don’t seem to be getting enough rest. I have to do 90% of the driving around because of the Wife’s Carpel Tunnel. It is really hard for her to grip and such – even with the braces. So I get elected to drive for . . . → Read More: No Rest For the Wicked

Monday Morning Notes

Not much happened over the weekend – mostly resting up from last week with a little Surfing getting done.

Got the Blues today. Drove the Wife to her doctor’s appointment for her Carpel Tunnel condition. Surgery next month. Oh Boy. She will be out of any serious activity for 8 days. Poor Me. Even . . . → Read More: Monday Morning Notes
