Morning/Evening

 

Some of us like the mornings, others like the nights.  When I wore a younger man's garments, I was a night owl but after fifty years of more than ample mileage, I have decided that nights are for sleeping and it is the mornings that should be enjoyed.

My mornings begin with giving a treat to our three cats and a fourth cat that thinks he belongs to us.  I tend to our cats first, then to him.  My wife calls him LITTLE BOY...  I just call him cat.

Next is my thyroid pill, and coffee made with my Keurig pod machine - nothing fancy but I regret that now, because I cannot use a universal holder for ground coffee.

I watch FOX News while drinking my coffee until they start repeating themselves.  Before 2015, I was watching CNN and CBS but found they censor the news while FOX News does not, even though they ALL ARE BIASED.

My political views support neither party; I just want low taxes, no illegals, a strong military, free speech, and for the govt to stay the hell out of my life.  I'm not a fan of war or of the 2nd Amendment.

Mornings and Afternoons are spent working on my blogs and writing novels that will never be published as I just love to write and don't care of earning more money than I need.

I might watch a couple of episodes of a SciFi series or listen to a book on tape.  Sometimes, I will go for a walk or drive the car to the lake and just admire the beauty I see.

BUT...  mornings are my special time...  I am typically alone with my own thoughts, feelings, and emotions and can dream about anything I want.  It is a quiet peaceful time, especially now that I am retired.

I stay busy which is what being retired really means...  staying busy but working for anyone, being told what to do that made no sense.  Being retired does not mean doing nothing.

Each day goes by quicker than the day before.
