Early bird

Early bird catches the worm so the saying goes, I'd rather be catching my pillow, got up at 0150 what a time to leave the comfort of your bed. The reason being is that I got up early in order to make coffee for my wife who's going away again to work, hopefully the last time, money isn't everything some things are more important but that's married life for you. Well it's only me and our eldest daughter who starts back to work today, back to usual, dishes, collect the dried clothes, prepare dinner and then just wait for our daughter to come home from work so that we can eat. The temperature is still in the low twenties and no breeze perhaps the calm before the storm, I hope not but a few drops of rain will do just to freshen the air a bit although today will be hot again. How people in hot countries put up with the heat every day I've got no idea, I suppose that they just get used to it. To change the subject only another seventeen hours until kickoff of Croatias last and most important match of the group stage of the Euros, only a win will do and I hope that they get it but after the way that they've been playing I have my doubts which is a terrible thing to say as a Croatian football fan for donkeys years, win or lose, continue on or not I will always support them but a win would be the icing of the cake. Normally I fall asleep about nine but today is an exception and I'll try to stay awake because watching it on telly is better than watching it on my mobile because I'll probably fall asleep and end up with a empty battery on my mobile and won't see the outcome. That's enough about football what about politics, well I saw Trump and his speech and he seems a bit out of it when talking and he says Biden is old, we'll it's not long and we'll see who will be the next president my only hope is that whoever it is will continue to support Ukraines fight for democracy against the russian hoards, so many lives lost, so many families pulled apart the war coming to an end can't come soon enough for me and everyone else who's watching the daily suffering on both sides. Well that's all for now as it's coffee time so I can stay awake, I wonder how many cups I will drink today or perhaps I'll have a little sleep this afternoon just to make sure I stay awake. Well if you enjoyed reading todays early bird blog then like, follow and 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...
