Got to keep writing

Someone commented that I need to keep writing - follow up on previous posts, or something new.

Go figure - I live alone. My day goes as follows

Up at 6.30am - Do the bathroom thing, shower etc. - Get dressed - Go downstairs, switch on the kettle - go outside for a smoke - go inside make coffee - go outside again....2 cups of coffee and maybe 4 or 5 smokes later, I've checked the Facebook updates, read any WhatsApp messages that have come through, read the daily message and prayers, and get ready to go to work. It's now 7.40am.

Note:- At this point I have not spoken to anyone yet.

Drive to work, get there at 8.am. Go inside - now I get to speak to people, the employees. Put in my 8 hours, and at 5pkm, lockup the factory and go home. I'm home by 5.15pm, if I don't stop at the club for a cold one with the boys.

Once I'm home, I don't get to speak to anyone again till I get to the office the next day - Maybe a call from one of my sons, or Gavin, a close mate, but other than that, nothing.

So, unless something happens during the day that requires taking note of, or needs to be shared with my hundreds of followers, I don't have too much to say.

Weekends are similar - up early, coffee, smokes. A visit to mom at frail care in the old age home (Advanced dementia means no communication, but I believe she knows I'm there).

Then sometimes to the club for a late breakfast, then home. Up early on Sunday - same routine - then Church, followed by a visit to my sister, followed by a visit to my grandchildren, and then my other son, and then home, to prepare for work on Monday.

Saturday afternoons I used to play poker - a nice game just a few k's down the road. But I've given that up as I can't play against donkeys, and I strip my moer too quick - it's not healthy for me :)

Reading through this post I get the feeling I need to get a life!

I am, however, posting quite a bit on my other private blog, and might share the link sometime.

Keep safe out there.....
