Ehd of the Winter Season

I can't believe that the end of the season is here already and things are winding down and people are heading NORTH for the summer....Many have left already and some I didn't even get to see to tell them good bye and have a safe summer....It seems that all winter I have so much going on, I don't have time or forget to put any thing on the Blog and when the season is over, there is nothing going on to report on...I guess there is no way I can win in trying to keep a blog going, but I will put something on when I have an event....I know that I have one or two that check once in a while so to satisfy them and let them know that I'm still alive and Marilyn is still visiting Walmart....LOL....Any body reading this please have a great summer and be safe.....God Bless you all....

Weather Check

I am tired of this weather being up and down every few days and am looking forward to some nice weather from here on out....I guess I will keep my fingers crossed about that , but I think that would bother my pool shooting some what so like everyone else , I will just take what comes...I haven't gotten out much except to play pool and take Marilyn to Walmart or  to HEB.....Exciting heh.... Oh Well at least the last Dr. visit last week he did tell me not to come back for 6 months.....HOORAY for that....I have also being trying to lose some weight and having SOME success, but it sure comes off slower and harder than it went on...HA HA..Well the pool leagues will be winding up at the end of this month so that means some things will be slowing down and I can get some things done around the house that I have been neglecting......Tomorrow I have to go to Magic Valley and be a referee for the Olympics men's pool....I usually go to watch them anyway, so at least I will have a purpose for being there....I would like to go over and watch the women play at Victoria Park but will have to see when I get off duty first...That's about it for now...Later...

Flying Time

The title is just what it says, oh how the time is flying bye...I didn't realize how long it had been since I had put any thing on here....There is so much going on with pool leagues and taking Marilyn to Walmart and HEB....I have even started to play shuffleboard on Wednesday nights here at Siesta....They have a game called horse collar that is a fun game and I kind of enjoy it, so that's another night away from home for a couple of hours....I guess I need to take advantage of all this while I can , cause when all the northern people go home, I will only have pool for a coupe of nights a week and a lot more Walmart....HA HA...Oh well I don't care just as long as we are having some fun along the way....Well at least I put something on here so the one or two people that read this will have something to read and not get on me for not writing....LOL....Till next time.....Keep safe and keep smiling....

Are we up north?

I just can't get over how cold it is here in deep south Texas this early....Usually we have a couple of weeks late in January that we call winter and then it warms up and back to normal....Not this year it seems to have been cold or at least very cool for the last couple of months....I don't know what is happening to this weather all over the country...Oh well I guess we just have to grin and bare it as there is nothing we can do about it but complain, but then we always seem to have something to complain about one way or the other....Oh the joys of getting OLD...HA HA......

Well the busy season is here with all the pool leagues and other activities that are going on...I guess we need to enjoy them all while they are here to enjoy....I mean we have to make hay while the grass is green in other words...It sure is nice to be able to see all the old friends that are down here in deep south Texas for the winter season, cause we won't get to see them in the summer and we miss them for at least 6 months or more unless we get pictures or keep in touch on Facebook or email....Oh well I'm trying to put something on here once in a while to let a few people know I'm still here...More later...

Yes I'm still alive

Well the other night I was let known that I hadn't written any thing on this blog for ever....I said that nothing has happened in my boring life to put down and also I didn't think anyone read the blog anyway...I was informed that there was some that checked just to see if I had put anything down...So I will try to put something down for those that do check....The holidays are upon us in a big way....Christmas is just over and here comes the New Year....I do know that this is the worst time of the year to go any place in a car as the streets are so crowded and the stores are a fright......BUT we still have to go and make sure to let them know we are still OK  because if we don't they will send out a search party to see what has happened to us....Well whoever reads this keep safe and have a Happy New Year....Till next time....

Summer Time

I think that summer time is here for sure.....I don't understand how so many people still think that they have to leave here to travel up north to wade in snow or slide on the ice....I would just as soon stay here and run the air-conditioner and be able to go outside without a coat as go up and run the heater and wear a coat every where outside....I realize that sometimes things come up that a person must do or some of the family is sick or something, but this is just how people are always looking for the bright side of things or should I say the warm side.....

Well some things never change even in the summer or winter....We all have to make a certain number of trips each week to Wal-Mart or to HEB to seem to be able to survive...HA HA....At least the roads aren't crowded and the stores aren't either....One bad thing is pool slows down as so much I have to go to other parks and play....It's the same at most of them and we just get together to have enough to play.....It's kind of nice to have no pressure and just have fun....At the end of the night we usually can't tell who won the most games and it doesn't make any difference any way....Well Marilyn and I are doing OK and just getting older together ....That's just the way it should be anyway.....Later...

Yes I'm still here

I know that I haven't put any thing on the blog for a long time and the only thing I can say or blame it on is January and February are my busiest time of the year....The last couple of weeks I have just kind of sat back and relaxed and not done much at all....It's kind of nice not to have a schedule to keep up with....Pool leagues have all been done and some schedules have been made for next season while things are fresh in my mind....The only some what planed activity if you could call it that is I have to make a certain number of trips to Wal-mart and I never know just when one might come along, but that's OK with me.....I do know that I am glad we don't HAVE to go up NORTH in the next few weeks as I keep hearing about the cold and SNOW that looks so good but I don't want to come in contact with....Well that's all for a while, but I'll really try to put something on more often now....Later....
