How well do you know your immediate neighbours? Not well. When living in a house I did, but it’s very transient in an apartment complex.

2. Do you notice changes in your neighbourhood : ie. new car, new dog, home improvements, etc. There are people moving in and out constantly.

3. Should new neighbours move in next door, do you introduce yourself once they are settled in? Sad to say, no. When I first moved in here, I used to.

4. Have you ever had to complain to your neighbours? Besides my confronting a woman who constantly let her dog poop in front of my patio instead of the designated area, no. And that didn’t fix anything.

Gratitude: I am so grateful for my grandkids. Today the 17 year old is traveling to SD for a college interview requested by the soccer coach there. If she decides that is her choice she will be about five hours away👍🏻!

No one ever allots education to insects. I’m sure you think they rely on instinct only, sigh, you would be wrong. Have you ever seen a heartily enthusiastic march of carpenter ants diverging on your kitchen cupboards? You don’t need to live on a ranch in the countryside to relate. Have you ever noticed just not one single winged flying insect skid happily onto your food? And it’s not even a picnic outdoors in warm weather? I say insects as a whole are in a very determined, practiced and smart group.

FOWC – Seat

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

Please sit down, take a seat 

There will be no tea or treat 

We will be suffering defeat!

It’s time for the drums to beat

Get up now, on your feet

Never say never, and don’t retreat

This definitely isn’t going to be neat.

Let everyone with a hateful bleat

Be met with your questioned plea

To stop the graft and tax form cheats

Expense accounts in glamorous suites 

Stop the everyday obnoxious tweet

Hidden under peaked white sheets

They’re about, themselves, to feel the heat

When we grow our opposition fleet

And they find themselves out on the street.

The Rich vs The Poor

“Have any spare change?” the tousled man asked

The tycoon indicated with a rude pass

Stopped to stand over the never obsolete man

Surveyed the area with a wave of his hand

“You’re a plagued addition here” declaring it loud

His rudeness stunning the approaching crowd

“The accession of vagrants like you

Give this city a disgusting view!”

Then proceeded to be on his way

Acting indifferent to his ill mannered display.

Run is appropriate for the day since it is homecoming dance day for some high schoolers in the state. My daughter’s home is full of activity as boutonnière and corsages are being crafted and there’s the usual soccer and reffing other soccer games taking place in between times. So run is definitely on the agenda. What fun being young! At least as I remember it🧐🙄😂

Joe tried out the mustache and monocle disguise in the rear view mirror. He checked his ticket time on his laptop and hoped the secured and well hidden explosives would sneak under the radar of the train terminal agent. He had a bible obviously shoved in his jacket’s breast pocket and his passport clearly stated he was a minister on his way to the “Faith in Time” convention in Little Town. All was going well as he approached the steps to board the train. Then he heard a voice calling to him. Trying to ignore it and fairly pushing his way ahead in the line, his sleeve was grabbed by the man who had yelled at him. It was the ticket attendant with a bottle of water. “Hey, you left this at the counter!” Joe practically fainted but thanked the man and boarded the train.
