Friday’s Rain

— Posted inLegacy — 3 min read

God I love the sound of rain on a tin roof, grandpa had one. It just came to my mind because it is just pouring out there. Rain it’s a good thing though it makes everything clean, fresh as it glistens in the damp cool night. But first you need to get past the mud and pot holes.

There are so many wonderful things about the rain I never paid attention to, I wish I would have known that then. Much time wasted on worries about dirty shoes,muddy carpet those are so unimportant now, almost selfish that I even let that stuff bother me. I welcome that mud now.

How nice it would be to be able to go mudding and lol cow tipping again. Even camping when we least expected rain, we got hammered, Ed used to stand out in that and hold an umbrella over the fire to keep the embers hot, for the boys to stay dry and warm and for me naturally to cook. Ha! Those boys were never full,s’mores and pizza presses, hotdogs and especially the breakfast fresh eggs, fried potatoes even the toast were all done over an open fire. Mmmm: I can close my eyes and smell it as I type this out. Oh and the extra cheesey scrambled eggs.

Ed used to get whatever you needed from nature, of course if we didn’t bring it. If you needed a toothpick he had a cure for that too. I always used to think that setting up the camp site was the absolute worst. But now I realize it was actually tearing it down, little did I know at that time that was the end of a chapter of my life.

But it was also a time to head home, get ready for the soccer practice days, they were chaotic but I always loved them. As a coach I don’t think I could have had a better team of players, yep I said that every season. Until the time came when all the children my children knew were older, and it was time to let them move on to better coaching, for I had taught them I think all I could.

These are just a few more of the little things I miss now and should’ve been missing then as well. Until next time anyone in the loft is looking be safe, be kind, choose your words carefully, softly because it really doesn’t matter what matters is the time spent with the family and friends you held so dearly. I know I so miss those days now.

Pain It’s a Real Thing!

Hello I’m back did you miss me? No, you didn’t because I received no comments. But it’s all good. Seems last post survived. That’s wonderful!

I’m in so much pain, Lord sometimes I don’t know if I’m going to have enough time to say everything I need to say. But if I put it all out there now then there’s probably nothing left to say. If you ever meet a cancer patient or even better yet a survivor, consider them a warrior!

We take so much, we think about how we are going to be buried or cremated personally I’m choosing that later, can’t bear to think of myself being nibbled on by insects. Or flooded by a heavy rain. Cremation just seems logical. Then I can return to the earth of which I belong.

Pain this is like nothing I have ever felt nor do I wish anyone else to ever feel, hell not even Satan. Well, maybe he does. I’m just not sure anymore.

While I’m thinking about this those at Shutterstock and the Bitcoin wallpapers I want to toss out a big thank you and the work your doing w ell, simply put admirable and gorgeous! I’ve tried sending thank you. But I’m not able to do so for some reason. But please know I’m very pleased and appreciate. You have help take my mind off of so much!

Now on to the next issue, The V not sure what’s going on but nothing 3 working right with me. I make a forum post, I get admonished as if how dare me bug them as I was told, my simple language is just to simple because they are techies. Well if they can’t comprehend me, they I no longer ask for help. If this blog looks like shit write them. Maybe then they will take time to tell me what the hell happened after they updated their blog awhile back, Lord knows I’m not getting any help. You see it is just a combination of everything that makes my pain so much worse!

My last words today, Take Time, To Help Those In Need, Never Belittle Someone for Learning. Be Kind, Be Helpful. For one day you too will be old, hopefully not as sick as I. God bless and Be well.
