Work

Well I suppose every one knows what that is, it's something you have to do five days a week and get paid for it, as in yesterday's blog my wife and daughter went back to work after their holidays and the house was empty apart from our dogs, it was a bit different to say the least after two weeks with them home but all holidays come to an end and now it's back to working for a living. What do you think if someone stays at home while everyone else goes to work as I do because I receive a pension do you class housework which is normally done by the wife as work or a job, I class it as both now that I have to do it everyday apart from Sunday. A lot of people people ask me what I do and I reply housework and then they laugh, ok if they think it's funny but I don't, now I know what has to be done every day to keep the household shipshape and it's not that easy and I now know what it is like being a housewife so I class what I do every day as a job. Let people laugh but I know it has to be done so when my wife and daughter return home then they can eat a hot meal and then relax which is only fair as they with their wages put food on the table and I pay that bills, 50/50 that's why our marriage is still going strong, it's a relationship of give and take, ok maybe I do spend some of my pension on things that I enjoy and almost always have a small amount left over for emergencies or buying wood for the Winter or a bottle of gas for cooking, there is always something that crops up unexpectedly every month so I almost always have a little in reserve. Well that's all for now on the subject as they've gone to work and my Job starts. If you enjoyed 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...

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...
