Problems

Yesterday started off as usual, getting up, dogs, coffee, blog and then waiting for my wife to get up and thankfully there was milk for her coffee, at least I wasn't shouted at first thing in the morning the start of a good day I thought. Then It was time to go to the shop but of course I hadn't received my money back from the bank so my daughter just wrote what I owed on a paper and went back home to wait for the bank to open so I could ask where my money was, the woman told me it would probably be some time during the day, ok I'll just wait and sure enough it did arrive so everything started to get back to normal. No dinner to prepare as my wife said she would make tortillas for dinner so nothing to prepare and yippee no dishes, there must be something in the air as everything was going right, famous last words. As I had received my money I telephoned my wife to ask when she would be home, she answered sounding not very happy and told me she didn't know as she had a ton of paperwork to finish so I asked her when she did come home to leave the car outside so that I could get my money as the buses weren't running as usual because the children were on holiday, she said ok and hung up, it seemed that the day wasn't going as well as I thought. Eventually she and my daughter arrived home so I took the car keys as I could see my wife wasn't in a good mood and go to get my money then the problems started. Out I went to the car and turned the keys, nothing, I tried again and nothing, then out came my wife and daughter to see what was wrong, I gestured that I couldn't start the car so my wife tried to no avail during which time my daughter had telephoned her fiance so after we all went inside and my wife decided what to do next but of course my daughters fiance arrived and he tried, of course nothing but he popped the hood to see what in his personal opinion was the problem as if he was a mechanic and nothing so he said that it was the battery but I wondered how my wife started the car to come home and I thought that it might be the altenator which charges the battery but they had all decided it was the battery. Then I had an idea that we would push the car inside and I would bump start it in reverse so my wife, daughter and I decided with a little help from the neighbor to push the car inside, ok that went well,then I got inside and they gave it a push and it started straight away at least I had had one bright idea my wife left the car running to try to recharge the battery while she telephoned the mechanic who she had bought the car from and he told her to photograph the battery and send it to him and today he would fix it. Of course then my daughter decided to mow the grass so the car had to be moved, I just hoped that it would start today. Great it has and my wife has gone to work, I wonder what today will be like better I hope. That's all for me for today so if you enjoyed reading today's 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...
