Weekends

Ok well weekends what does that really mean, for some people nothing because they still have to go to work but for others it means two days of relaxation and a break from their daily boring life when they can enjoy whatever they can't during the working week. It's like I think a two day holiday, a time to be with family and friends and catch up on what's been happening during the week, asking how their job is going, how are their family and friends, anything new happened at work or school. It's a time to catch up on washing clothes and putting them out to dry if it's a sunny weekend, cooking food for the next week, putting it in the freezer so all you've got to do when you come home from work is put it in the microwave, giving the house a good clean because you didn't have time to do it when you get home from work. If you've got a family then probably they all come to visit at least every couple of weeks or it's a time for you and your wife to be on their own and enjoy the peace and quiet but if it’s a family weekend then it's not going to be a quiet weekend, everyone shouting because of something stupid, everyone talking at the same time, discussing this, that and the other, if you're a parent then it may be a bit overwhelming but at least you are all together as a family communicating rather than talking over the phone. Then Sunday comes around and they all have a lay in until it's time to get up then all hell breaks loose, everybody wanting to use the toilet at the same time, some wanting to get ready for church, parents starting to prepare lunch not for the usual two or three but for the whole family, it's supposed to be the weekend, a time to relax but that's not important as your all together as a family unit and that’s the most important thing. Then after lunch, washing the dishes, sitting down watching telly or just talking it's almost time for the weekend to finish, you say your goodbyes, wave to them as they drive off and then what do you do, start to get ready for the next day when the working week starts again but that's what the weekend is all about work, family and then work again until the next weekend. What does the weekend mean to you, is it the same or do you spend your couple of free days a different way, whatever you do then it is surely a happy couple of days, a break, a time to replenish your battery for the working week ahead with only one thought in your mind, only five more days and it's the weekend, I can't wait but you have to as it's only five days so that gives you the energy to go to work with that thought in mind, am I right or wrong.

Luck

Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...

T+L

Well at long last it seems that there may be a break in our heatwave, last night after the temperature hitting a huge 40 degrees it started to thunder and lightning but did the heavens open for rain to fall, no only a few spots, I could probably drink more water than fell from the sky, at least it's a little cooler 19 and set to rise to a reasonable 35 degrees which is a bit more bearable. It's Sunday the end of the weekend and again it seems that my wife and I will be on our own, my youngest daughter and her fiance are going here and there to visit his family and I'm not sure if my eldest daughter will be here so it's going to be a weird Sunday but peaceful. It's going well for Ukraine from looking at all the media as Ukraine is still taking over more of russia and blowing up bridges so the idiot can't resupply his troops and he is also bombing his own country with missiles, what a shame the ordinary people who so called voted for the puppet master are having t...

Terrible

Isn't it just terrible to see once again ordinary people being targeted by bombs and mortars and being once again driven from their homes. The orders obviously coming from the top which of course means non other than the war monger himself, Putin and the Ukrainians can't do a thing to stop it except helping with the evacuation of the elderly and sick from the border towns with Russia. It is a familiar site for me after witnessing it myself here in Croatia in 1991, so I know how those people feel being driven from their homes and normal lives not knowing wheater they will return or not by a superior force intent on carrying out their orders by a lunatic dictator. Here in Croatia after so many years people are back in their homes, rebuilt and the villages, towns and cities are back to normal, Croatia has come back from the brink of destruction to become a stronger and better country, all because of the heart and will of the people. There is a huge question mark over wheater the U...
