Sitting Sipping Speculating

 November 23, 2024,

Hi to one and all, I seem to be coming round full circle. As a teen, I played hockey. Practice was at 06:00 and the rink was far enough away that mother would get up to drive me to the rink and then take me home to get ready for school. Breakfast was tea and toast with either brown sugar, peanut butter or both slathered on. Later in my teen years, I switched to coffee, strong and black! Now I'm back to tea. Breakfast is still toast. Though now I'm more likely to have cheese than brown sugar on it.

His attack against international law and order began with his old tired trope of, Antisemites are attacking me and all Jews everywhere!   I am hoping rather than believing that those who have so far backed NetanYAHOO will rethink their position. Biden has once again shown his Zionist colors and called the ICC decision a disgrace and will shortly be bringing whatever influence he still has against the ICC as he continues to enable the genocidal war against the Palestinians. This morning I saw the new old dame that lays almost teardrop shaped eggs on the nest. Odd shape aside, they surely do taste good.  We are about 60% through revamping the garden. Most of the vegetable growing area has been switched to the upper pond. The central circle s beginning to look like a butterfly magnet, and the dogs are enjoying a bit more space to run and play.  I have no hard and set rules for when I opt for a serious painkiller.  No, as I do a quick rethink, I do have one hard and fast rule. I only take them reactively. IE, when the pain is too much for sleep, I pop one. Which means that I am taking one or two a week and no Advil, instead of seven a week and lots of Advil.  The air feels different today. Colder and harder is how I describe it. In the past, this has often been how a super typhoon announces that it is coming our way. I do hope I'm wrong. And that my friends and family is enough sitting, sipping and speculating for one morning.  Brian
