Abm

Abm stands for all by myself, that's a song that I remember but today it's not about the song it's about the feeling, feeling alone although you've got a family around you you still feel alone apart from my blog and the dogs. This weekend all the family and fiancé's will be here for the weekend, great you may say as do I but I as always will feel out of the loop, they will all be talking about their jobs, what they've been up to the past week and what's new in their lives. If they ask me what I've been doing then my answer will be nothing as I haven’t a real job because I'm retired and therefore don't have a job that I can talk about, the only things that I do are household jobs while my family are in work, like washing dishes and drying them, putting clothes out to dry, when it's cold trying to keep the house warm but if it gets warm outside during the day then I'm wrong for lightning the fire, paying bills when I get my pension, looking after the dog's and that's about it, a really interesting life don't you think. The years when the husband was the bread winner and always was the head of the family have passed and nowadays that's all changed with equality of the sexes don't get me wrong I'm not complaining that everybody has something to talk about but sometimes it does get me down. Everyone talks about something or other and I just listen to try and understand what's been going on in their lives, perhaps it's the fact that I've never really learnt the language as well as I should have and I often don't understand what they are saying but in the end I sort of understand, I wonder if there are people like me who live in a different country who don't understand everything, I'm sure there are and perhaps those people can relate to my blog. What can I do about it, nothing, just put up with my life as it is and don't complain, be here if by any chance I am needed and help if I can. Life has been good to me here where I live, I've survived four years of war in two different countries, married a great wife and we have been blessed with three great children who are getting on with their lives to the best of their ability, a roof over our heads which we call home and our children are always welcome as are friends of family members but it's as though I'm still in the army with everyone telling me what I should or shouldn't do it's as if I have a houseful of superior officers giving me orders. Well that's all for now although there is a lot that I could write about but instead I'll keep it to myself which is sometimes the best thing to do, it may get you a little depressed but that's life, live life to it's full and try not to think about things that get you down after all that's what life is all about, getting on with it to the best of your ability maybe I'm getting on a bit in years but I'm not totally useless. That's all on that topic for today, write again tomorrow, if you didn't get too depressed reading this blog then comment if you want to and of course share. Thank you.

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...

The other foot

I bet that the president of Ukraine is now extatic when the shoe is on the other foot and the idiot in the Kremlin is getting a right good kicking. It's been so long since the people of Ukraine had something to be happy about and not feel miserable every day. They may be still losing their homeland little by little every day but I now think that perhaps the tide is turning. The incursion into the russian motherland which is the first time since WW11 is an early Christmas present after all the suffering that they have endured physically, mentally and the bodies of their loved ones coming home from the front in boxes. Now it's the turn of the russian people to be upset and experience what the ordinary people of Ukraine have for so long. The Ukrainians have gone on the rampage and are taking russian soil not inch by inch but mile by mile, now there's a sense of jubilation among the people of Ukraine and the mood of the ordinary people of Russia has turned against the puppet ma...
