I Hope Everyone Had A Good Turkey Day

I hope the meat was moist, the gravy savory and the stuffing perfect.

We had a houseful of folks from the Wifely Unit’s side and she made a great meal.

Unfortunately, for the last 3 days, I have laid in bed at night trying to sleep until I could see the light coming up through the window. By the time I would get to sleep and then wake up, I had about 45 minutes to get up and get out the door to go to work.

All that caught up to me today so I have been laying in my recliner dozing on and off all day.

Even with a house full of people yakking and laughing.

My back’s been killing me for no good reason too so I popped one of Daddy;s Little Helpers, put the headphones on and dozed listening to music.

Sleeping in fits and starts, I’m still tired but I did manage to get up and eat dinner and then after another nap, get up and have a piece of Pumplin Cjheese Cake with real Whipped Cream so I feel a little better.

I have no idea what the deal is with not sleeping, could be a lot of things but hopefully I will get back to normal by Monday.

Anyways, I hope everyone else had a good day and thanks for stopping by.

A Great National Tragedy That Is Slowly Fading From Memory

To this day I can still remember watching JFK’s funeral procession on a little black and white television in my Grandmother’s living room and asking her why the boots were in the stirrups backward on a horse with no rider.

If I hadn’t seen a post from someone else earlier while at work today I would not have remembered what happened on this November day back in 1963.

Pretty Much My Entire Life

One of my earlest memories is from when I was 3 or4, trying to figure out how to adjust the seat on my trycycle.

Honest to God.

Soon after that, I can remembere using one of these,

To lubricate the pedal mechanism in one of these,

So you could say, that am a Natural Born Mechanic.

Hatched and ready to bust some knuckles from the Get Go.

That means I have been turning wrenches way over 50 years now.

45 years at least, since High school.

I even took a Small Engine course in Junior High.

So when I saw this video, I felt every bit of it.

Some days, it’s all I can do just to get out of bed and get dressed but I still have to go to work.

At this point I am literally leaving it in God’s hands.
