Our personal PC has burned lighting. Can be repaired, but cost too much. So I will be using a public pc at the library; whenever. Consequently, my stay here at AP will be seldom.
-
I will not be here for few days, maybe even a week. I am fighting a really bad cold and the meds. make me a bit off the real world. So decided to stay away, and not read or roam and not be ugly to anyone here. I am just going to read and watch TV, Take care all, see u later; I hope.

Here I go again. It is 4:30 pm and the aches and pains of the day are starting. It is hell getting old as your body now says, "OK the day is over. Don't think you are going out an dpaint the town; as I have plans for you." THere was a time the day was over and my ight would begin. Home to shower and wash the day away

A Giant Egret has landed in our back yard and has been here for two days. What a beautiful bird. The wife and I are trying to figrue out what to do. THere is a Wildlife Rescue near us, we will give a call and see what can be done in the mean time we are enjoying the visit. It is simply admazing!!

Many thanks to all who gave me positive comments toward me on my comment on the person (name not mentioned) who no longer wanted to be my favorite. I have many favorites left. I have no tme for such child like actions. So what the hey. See you all on the flip-side.
-
Well, how about that? Like the song goes "Ain't That A Kick In The Head?" I was asked by someone here to remove their name from my list of favoriets. It hit me as strange as I can still look at this persons poem if I wish and even comment which I will not. If I am not liked then remove me. Put me on your perm. ignore

Getting old ain't all that great at times. Oh yea, we no longer have to work 9-5 and can do pretty much what we want.But, you can watch so much TV, read so many books, work so many crosswords, to keep the mind active,but then what? I like to go out and eat, but the meals are now expensive and have no taste. I like to

They need a spot here for the teens only. This site is full-up with them. Way too many off the wall gals and guys. Unless I go into the many profiles, I have no idea to whom I am talking with. I see many are "gold" members; thanks to mom and dad. I could not afford it. Of course, some are very good poets and some are

My how time does fly by. In just 6 months I will be 73. How did I get so old so darn fast? it is a crazy age as many people avoid you like the plague. They think because you are old you are a fool. Well I can certainly fool them. Anyway, I am kicking and thinking and writing and staying sane. I hope you all are doi

I have the CDs lined and Iam sitting in the semi-darkness listening to Willie sing. Drinking a bit of Jack Daniels on the rocks. There comes a time when I need to do this. Me, Willie, and old Jack. I cry a bit, tap my foot to the melody, and shake my head at the memories his words bring.

I went to a quilt show yesterday (6/5) with my wife and saw a quilt that brought sorrow into my heart. It was a Ground Zero Quilt by Lois Jarvis of Madison, WI. If anyone here at AP is a quilter or would like to see Ms. Jarvis' work go to: loisjarvisquilts.com It is something to view. Thanks to one and all, I do not

it is 1130pm and i can't get to sleep. My head hurts, my eyes burn and my brain will not stop running in circles. At time sit seems that the shit in life never stops. The only good thing is my wife loves me. Why, i have the slighest idea. Maybe because she and I can hold a conversation for hours on end. I have no use
-
Well, North Korea is at it again. Ready to push the button. We need to wake up and watch them closely. Remember General Douglas MacArthur said long ago"Watch out for North Korea" or something like that. It was right after the Korean War. He knew his enemies. So I guess we are just gonna sit and wait and see if they

There are some very nice people here and some are really not so nice. It is almost like being out there in the real world; as here we all have well password names. Every now and then there are one or two, not three; that i would love to out on ignore. Is there a ignore button here?
-
I get so bored at times, I could just yell. What do you do after the beakfast dishes are done, the dogs have been fed, plants watered, wife off to work, and you are home with nothing to do. You can just write so many poems, read so many poems, comment on them and then what? Give me some ideas please!!! Oh yes so many

no matter how bad we feel others feel the same or worst, that is just how life is. as the song goes "some days are diamons and some days are coal. I just muddle along aand do the best i can. i have been made fun of, abused with words, sent to hell by ones who I thought loved me. But see, I survived, I made something
-
Haven't been here in awhile, but now I am back. At times there is really nothing to say or say something that I shouldn't. Been thinking alot lately about people I have know; they are more than likely all dead now. when you get old that is what happens; people just pass away and you are left with"I wonder how the hel

Ever feel like there is really someone or something out there watching you and I? I tell you my fellow AP members I sometimes wonder. Every time, well 8 out of 10, I sit down to a nice lunch there is a knock on the door: a relative has just stopped by; "Oh, hi ! are you eating? "This will just take a minute." Yack, y

Maybe I will be around and then maybe not. I may sail the seven seas, take a long ride, just fool around the house and enjoy my life. In other words, I am here but not here. There are many nice people here at AP and others that leave lots to be desired. Some i like and a few I have put on ignore.

As the saying goes "Sticks and Stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." I am surprise at some of the rudeness that comes out of the fingers of some AP members here. I let it all wash off. I may return a sarcastic response or two and then cast you into a den of serpents where you belong. If being ugly

If April showers bring May flowers, what do the winds of March bring? Well, the month of March has brought me love. The wifey and i will be married for 34 years on that special day this month, this year in March. i am pretty darn happy about that. we went and bought ourselves a new TV, with all the bells and whistlesby Papagallo on Mar 2 9:30 AM, 100 words. → 2 comments, Add one?

Been up since 2am and going a bit dizzy. Had a hunger for some well-fried eggs, toast, and fish stcks. I can asure you AP friends I am not with child. Also been looking around in my closets and found a stack of lessons and syuffed I used when teaching years ago. Why am I keeping this stuff?

I was just thinking, as I sometimes do. Next year will be the year 2010!! Wasn't there a song years ago about 2010? Anyway in 2010 I will be married for 35 years and will be 73 years young. Not going to tell my wife's age; because you will say that dirty old man. Also we up-graded our cable system and not get 125+ of

Finally figured out how to do this. It is an age thing. Now that I am here, I have no idea what to write. Want to know about my life, desires, the world here and elsewhere? What do I think or care about? How do I write or why do I write? I just posted a poem on here about the deck at my home.
