" Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum. "
Translation:
" Therefore, whoever wishes for peace, let him prepare for war. "
Woke up with cramp in leg that wouldn't go away for the longest time... probably too much coffee... not enough water. Problems getting any sleep at all between the grandkids screaming and Gail's dogs going berserk and being congested with the apnia mask... why even bother until I can't stop from nodding off from exhaustion.
Da Boards... normality settling in, temporarily if I know Da Boards. I kind'a have a feeling... nahhhhhhhhh !
Cold getting worse.
Whether the Weather: Tuesday: Beautiful sunny day...
Played some baseball with grandson David... at 7 years old, he swings a mean bat. I let him hit ( as I pitched ) up hill so's not to have to chase his smashes too far. Still, with my cold and all he wore me out after about an hour, each of the two times we went out.
Still some apples on the trees ! Most, unfortunately, pecked here and there by the birds. Plums have been gone for a while.
Noticed a large pool of fluid near Gail's front driver-side tire. Hole in transmission pan (?). " It's always something... " --Roseanne Rosannadanna
I'm still shook up a bit about the suicide note on a BLOG I came across on Da Boards the other day where the author, previously, had promoted his site. Don't wish to speculate further.
There's a HUGE orange full moon rising in the east above the Sierra's... beautiful !
Veterans
I am not worthy
but feel, still, I must
thank those who serve
and have served
our great Country
though I have no base
upon which to relate
other than those
of my family, who have
sacrificed, and some
who still do... serve
Thank you, emphatically, all !

Bye, y'all !
C'ya.
