November 12, 2024

            Hello to you, but not to that other person, ok, hello to all and a good morning to all. We had a good day yesterday but there were some problems with the tamale preparation. We think the problem was with the masa but who knows. The tamales are bigger than normal, yes, I will have tamales for lunch today.

            Next let’s discuss shoes. What type shoe do I wear, well most of them have rubber or very soft soles on them. That makes each step soft and comfortable. Well, for some reason I began to think about a pair of boots that I have not worn for years and they were in the closet taking up room. I use to wear these boots when I rode motorcycles, no they are not cowboy boots I think they were called engineer boots. They are leather and have hard soles on them, there is no softness to the soles of these boots.

            I thought that being an ole person I would not even be able to get them on my feet, well I was wrong, I have them on and they feel so different without the soft soles. Walking in them seems odd, but I kind of like the feeling. Olden day memory, I wore these type boots when I was in high school. I had heel taps on the boots and they would click on the floor when I walked. I thought I was cool back in the olden days.

            Let’s talk about honesty for a moment. If a person went to the store and purchased several items which were put in bags and if that person took them home and after emptying the bags that person found an item they had not purchase, what would they do?

            My favorite wife had that happen to her. There was a package of batteries that she did not purchase, so she checked her receipt to see if she was charged for it, and she was not. She took the package of batteries to the store. Honest people be nice

            Another topic: as we sit outside, we see some things that get our attention. Recently the birds seem to be occupying the bird houses as if they are getting ready for winter. Yesterday, there was a lot of birds and noise coming from the tree with the bird houses. I have determined that the parents who raised several babies in the houses were telling the younger generation to go find their own house, and the younger birds were not wanting to leave.  

            I did get three more flowers in pots put into the hot house; one was very heavy. All the easy ones have been moved in now the hard work begins and I will need help. That reminds me that I will need to water the potted plants in the hot house today.

            The latest problem: there are neighbors who have put up their Christmas decorations, and we have not started yet. Wow, behind again.

            Well, I need to get going an get Alex and take him to school. I hope you have a very nice day and that we all stay safe in all we do.

Birds argue.

Senior ole person who has a long-sleeved shirt on today, Don the Ford

May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow!
