Good Day, Friends !
Nice, but cool weather U.P. here today, but we never have a "Fall" in the U.P. Just Summer, and then, Winter ! Ha! But it's very beautiful in this upper peninsula woods/ area and the deer are moving and walking all over the place as if they owned it.... but we don't mind one bit... as we love all the wild life and Nature.
My new partial upper teeth needed to be 'trimmed and reshaped' -- so that they would not hurt my gums so bad, today, also. The Dentist gentleman treated me well, but I always go there with respect and humility. My wife will debate that statement, as she sees life much differently. Men are usually more 'DIRECT,' STRAIGHT FORWARD, BLUNT, but we speak our old "Army Language" that is so understandable within our "Group" and that's GOOD, because there are less verbal mistakes that way....as intended. Where civilians fumble for the correct P.C. words, Veterans speak directly and with greater understanding, IMHO. [In My Humble Opinion].
My wife has her personal "Projects" during the Summer, and Winter, and now taking her time redoing the front porch entity, with much drilling, sawing, sanding, chiseling, hammering, that is non-stop next to the living room, so that watching TV is totally messed up! Don't ever try to ask her for a few minutes of time to communicate, or other wise....LOL, if you don't want to be beat up and chastised. Like a Golden Retriever, type of dog, that is only focused on ONE THING, getting the fallen shot animal that the Master just brought down ! Personally, I think it's a 'Catholic Thing'.... where those nice folks believe that if they are not working hard all the time, the devil might catch them and drag them to hell. I was in a Milwaukee Catholic school in grade school, as they taught: "Idleness is the devil's work shop !" OK, I'd better stop complaining not, but I knew that our short 'time out' was only temporary at best. Let us pray and ponder on this point and also read the book of Proverbs.
Now, I have come to the point of figuring out that I HAVE ENOUGH Prepping stuff, and being prepared, so that stuff is now dormant and stashed in a cubby hole in the back of my mind, so I can now take care of other things. You See !! I am NOT myopic, narrow minded, over focused, so that I can take care of other important business ! PTL. When you/ we are done with a project, just STOP AND LET IT GO !! You have to be SATISFIED with things after you've done your best ! Maybe we have out priorities mixed up/ messed up, and we have to stop, sit down in silence and PONDER [THINK DEEPLY and SLOWLY], of what GOD wants us to do. Not like a bird dog who is let outside to 'do his duty' --- but instead the goofy dog has to check out every dang bush, tree, to pee, rather than what he was let out to do.... just pee in the RIGHT SPOT ! ! All dog owner KNOW what I mean.... Ha! I call this: "Rose Bushing" --- as the dog HAS TO STOP AT EVER ROSE BUSH IN THE BACK YARD, before he finally remembers to go to his right, private, special area to empty his bladder ! If I ask my wife to 'please, get me some cool water, or what ever, she does 5 other things FIRST, before helping me out !!' That is the crux of the matter, but she is so INDEPENDENT and proud of Women's Lib ----- which is contrary to the bible ! OK, she is NOT my slave or servant, but my co-equal, lovely mate, partner, but we try to help each other, even as I am disabled.
But, the VA doctors and staff are now working hard to help my feet from hurting most of the time that I stand up, walk, move, travel, and I am getting some new orthopedic shoes, SOON ! ! That is one reason I am so happy today. Smile. All that the VA is [finally] doing might help me walk again with out such pain !! They have me driving to the VA so many times for this and that.... but I am thinking that I should do all these things and 'jump thru their hoops' because some day and perhaps soon, the Gov't will cut our benefits because they are BANKRUPT ! I firmly believe that the time could come any week or day now, and so I Prep. Friends, I urge you to do the same and Prep. NOW, because all these services and benefits MIGHT dry up, never to be had anymore. Get your own health in good order, now, as best you can, so you can survive better when everything else is all dried up, and the wind blew it away. Feed Back ?? Am I right or wrong?
I also found a "new source for buying reasonable Silver, and other PM's." I will share these resources with those who have guts enough to email me. After the "Bubble bursts" --- silver and gold will shoot up, and quad triple in value to trade for food, water, medicine, ammo, etc., dear brothers and sisters.
I am drinking the last of my soda pop, and will then start drinking more pure, clean, water ! Nobody, hardly cooks for me anymore.... 'they are too busy,' and cannot be bothered. So, usually, I MIGHT get one meal a day, at supper time, if I'm lucky and behave like a perfect gentleman. Honestly, I would not mind so much, except that I NEED TO EAT SOMETHING after or before I take the VA's harsh medicines, etc. Or my poor old stomach will burn and pain me. So I buy certain stuff/ foods in the store, like cheap baloney, cheese and rye bread to feed myself... so I more/ or less live on Baloney for months on end. Ha! Some things never change ---- but putting our trust and love in Father God is the smartest thing to do, in my humble opinion, folks/ friends.
I am very tired of the constant bombardment from radio and TV/ Internet, about Politics, which is a big smoke screen to distract us while the Muslims infiltrate and plan to bring explosives and possibly an IMP device to totally 'mess us up !' Those of us who are KJV Bible loving Christians who love and trust in Christ, should be happy and joyous, because we know from Luke 21: 28...'that our redemption draweth nigh.' The old English term, "nigh", means NEAR.
Have a great day !
Respectfully,
Thomas G Schuckman
'The old days, when I used to get long needles in the knees... but I finally got so bad that I had both knees 'replaced' with steel and plastic.
This is one of our famous 240th AHC, Gunships, but I flew in "Slicks" [the H model],
that primarily transported the Infantry into battle, or extracted them later, or if the fighting got too hot, etc. We all had to work together like a well- oiled machine. The "U"H1-H [Huey] helicopter... the U stands for "utility." We could move, transport and haul many things, including people and guns. High Adventure ! Flying 7 days a week... Forever !
