NOVEMBER.........UGH.

HEY!

My two least favorite months are March, and....you guessed it!
November!

YUCK!

I wonder why I feel that way. Probably because those are the two "Can't Make Up My Mind" months for Ma Nature.
It doesn't really feel quite like winter. And, it sure doesn't feel like summer!

So, we're stuck in a no man's land of gloomy chilly wet cloudy gray days.

I'm not one of the Great White Hunters out there, so I don't spend all year looking forward to Baggin' Da Bambi.

Instead, I gotta put away the bike, the motorcycle, the Miata, and the shorts.

I know, poor me.

Hey, when you're retard....I mean retired, the weather takes on a whole different meaning. You home schoolin' moms out there can surely sympathise with me, right? I mean, now you're kinda stuck inside with the l'il darlings.

Yoiks!!

Oh well, it's not like we don't see it coming.
And, surely, by now, we should be used to it.
At least, I should be, at age 54.

Man.

Not!

Okay. 'Nuff on the weather.

At least this gloom makes a good old fashioned home cooked meal smell, sound, and taste really great.
Like, maybe, chicken and dumplings, or lasagna...hmmmm.

I think I should eat breakfast soon.

Hey, here's a smallish poem .

Here goes:

So many days gone by.

What have I learned?
Where am I now?

Have I grown at all,or simply hidden away running running
flying away leave me now please.

Am I failing you Father?
Why can't I hear you any more?
It used to be so clear, your will for me.
Have I closed my eyes, my ears?

Don't!

Don't let me, please,
Lord, take control.

Hold me tight again.
Please lead my blind eyes again...

I am still yours.
I am still yours.


YOU GET THE POINT!!

Hmm, feels like a song to me. Do you have a tune to go with it? I personally like hibernating, so getting out the warm woolly clothes, closing everything up, and snuggling with a warm cup of coffee or cocoa is something I really do look forward to. And then there's the holiday season, which you know I adore. So, try to be a tough New Yorker and enjoy each season for what it has to offer. Summer will come again, never fear.

Not on purpose. The Mario game came from widgetbox with the links attached.
