Forgetfulness

"I forgot" how many times have you heard that phrase, once or a million times, I don't know because I've forgotten. Like today I got up as usual to light the fire and let the dog's out and it felt a bit chilly around my lower body, yes you guessed it I forgot to put my trousers on. When you go to town for something specific that your wife wanted from a certain shop but you also have to buy other things and when you've got everything you need you go home and your wife asks you where is the one thing that she wanted which you didn't buy you say I forgot and she won't speak to you until you buy that one item and you think to yourself why didn't I put everything on a piece of paper and then everything would be alright. If you have to cook dinner and you need a certain ingredient so you telephone your wife at work and tell her you need it to finish dinner and she says she'll bring it when she's finished work so you wait and when she comes home you ask where's the item you telephoned her for and she says I forgot. When it's time to mow the lawn you get the mower out and look around for the petrol and there isn't any because you forgot to buy it. There are so many examples of forgetfulness that I can't really write them all down because I've forgotten them, you think to yourself is there something wrong with me but there probably isn't as everyone forgets something sometime even if it's just an important date of someone's birthday or anniversary and of course you forget, everyone forgets sometime in their lives and if they say they don't then I think that's a lie. When you have an appointment for the doctors, dentists or even the barbers you forget so why don't we just put it in your mobile because you forget that you can do that, some people call it absent minded or they say your getting senile but I suppose it's old age creeping up on you well that's my excuse although I always say that I'm not getting old. Is there really a scientific reason for forgetfulness, I'll have to look on my mobile if I remember to do it. Have you ever forgoten something I'm sure you have at least once in your lives even if you're young and it's something trivial like your homework that you forget and then have to explain where it is to your teacher and they immediately think that it's an excuse because you didn't do it but your actually telling the truth so it happens to everyone old or young, it's just life and it will always happen at least once so next time you have to remember something put it on your mobile straight away so that you won't forget it, I hope that's good advice for you and I'm going to do that from now on and I hope that I don't forget my mobile as I'm back to square one.

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...
