exhausted
Did two loads of laundry today. Although the machines did most of the work...it still took quite a bit of effort. 68,76,38,0,B
I missed that gas station and laundromat. Are they new or up near Alpine, I wonder. (I know my spelling and grammar are ridiculous on here). I celebrated my birthday yesterday-but I don't know if I want to put it on the worldwide internet --(76). In two more months when you heal I wonder if you will be able to walk normally again or how it will be or if there will be much pain. Anyway you are in the best climate for that.
It's becoming apparent that a solo sustainable lifestyle is only possible in the best of times. Times of adversity without neighbors and infrastructure to fall back on, it'd be neigh impossible.
Funny Sam. Yes I realize I was in that laundromat and used the bathroom. Did not recognize the first picture. Also John, in the 80's, my daughter who is five years younger than you was briefly married to a man from a farm in Ohio. They were both in the military in Austin. I'm as sure as can be that his last name is Briggs. He was a handsome athlete. I forgot to ask her because she is terse as her brothers warned me. I wasn't here. He wanted her to have a baby Now and then divorced her and married his African American lady who gave him around six brown babies. So.....That is life.
TY Remmij. I like Robert Earl Keen. He reminds me a little of Bob Dylan in style who I liked. Bob Dylan performed here recently at Canyon Lake and I sat in front alone. And the sheriff came over wondering what I was doing there. And Bob Dylan sang--only 28 miles to town (San Antonio).
you forget to honk ?
ReplyDeletegreat view for doing laundry.
ReplyDeleteProbably safe to say getting clothes clean is never as much fun as getting them dirty.

ReplyDeleteI just recently realized that at my age I'd probably better not wander too far from electricity and the corner drug store.

ReplyDeleteMy daughter thinks the world is overpopulated.
