No it's not someone from James Bond it's a something,it's the beginning of a season not in the sence that you're maybe thinking but something else. It's the beginning of the season of the most annoying, blood sucking and disgusting little things on the planet, not Putin but close it's mosquito season, no more days or nights without being bitten at least once by these tiny insignificant insects. The weather is heating up and you begin to get rid of your winter blankets and quilts as the nights are to hot and humid to soundly sleep but apart from the weather you start to drop off to sleep and they attack. What do you do when you hear that insesant buzzing and because of the darkness you can't see where it's coming from you just take a swing at which ever direction the buzzing is coming from and just when you think you've hit the target it starts again. You wake up the next morning after an uneasy sleep black and blue from where you've been swipping the mosquitos and missed, there are also little marks where they've had their midnight drink and had buzzed off to find another target. There is no escape from these monsters especially if you live close to rivers and forests which a lot of us in Croatia do, you want to sit outside and enjoy the sun but you can't because they're there waiting for you to begin their afternoon feeding. When you walk along the river even in the cities you see people waving their arms around as if they belonged in a lunatic asylum, there's no escape and you can't wait until the planes start flying and spraying liquid in an attempt to get rid of these little monsters of nature but to no avail, some survive and wait for the rain so they can start reproducing a new colony to continue their reign of annoyance. In order to get rid of them from your home you go shopping not for food but for bug spray or creams there are loads to choose from and none of them work as the label says, then you try wire nets on the windows but they've found some little hiding place so they remain a constant threat, the mosquitos are winning their relentless and blood sucking war against us no matter what we try to do. The only thing to do is put up with it and hope that when it gets colder they will die off but they don't not until it gets colder and their breeding season comes to a thankful end, wow, sleep under the blankets, warm and comfortable and no buzzing, well until next year at least, I feel sorry for all the people all over the world that have to put up with mosquitos but their a fact of life and we have to succumb and get used to it, well for the next few months at least before they start breeding again. Well that's all the buzzing news from my blog for today so until tomorrow shut your windows and doors and try to get some sleep. If you enjoyed todays blog then share, like and follow. Thank you.
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 ...
