What is it that most of us want, other than being healthy, wealthy and wise? Most of us want to have friends, we want to be considered as friendly. Although I have covered this subject in the past, it came to mind again, so here I go preaching, I mean teaching!
If you are smart, learn to listen. Hopefully someone will listen to you.
Moving from that subject to another, as the Tres and I walked this morning, more than an hour prior to sunrise, I was surprised by a bird that started making a very loud sound. Then another bird started making a loud noise. They seemed to be in the trees that we were walking under. The noise continued until we were about 100 feet away. I assume they were warning all the birds in the area that a silly senior person with a big dog were in the area.
Back at home, a cup of real coffee in hand, I went into the ford’s garage to acquire a hooded sweat shirt to keep my senior body warm in the cold weather. Yep it was so cold that Tres had asked for a jacket. Even though the cold weather was crippling, I was able to sit on the Ford’s swing and sip on the coffee. As I sat there I heard someone’s cell phone ringing. The sound seemed to come from across the street. The phone rang several times but I did not see anyone. I kind of assume it was my neighbor out behind his home. Still, that was a long way to hear a cell phone ring.
I plan to go get my license for the truck this morning. I plan to try the local HEB first then if I can’t get them there I will need to drive down town.
You are correct, ole senior people are always on the go!
May someone listen to you today!
