I just picked three decent sized zuchnni out of the garden, hubby says he wants to take two loaves of zuchinni bread to Scount camp next week. I'm having an day like I don' texist with other people...but more then that, have an tremendous third eye headache right now..and pain shooting down my right jaw, and ears..side I have no hearing on. So..hubby went out for some dinner tonight. I was watching an show on " Untold America" about an cave in the southern tip of Arizonia..at the enterance is an rock inscribed with what turned out to be an Anglo-Saxon rune message...which says bascially and was traced back...to an Englishman there around 1200 AD...and his name and what appears to be an burial palque for him.they went back to Shopshire England to find out where he lived and found the oldest home in the area built like the caves, which also minick the Gilla Caves in New Mexico. .Those were built around the 1500's by Native Americans. ..so his style predates them. His name was Rough Huretch...they think the "rough" was an nickname for him and in England..he has no further lineage...and the name appears to have been "peter" in the area. So they did ground imagining and did come up with an ground disturbance about 4 feet under. But without the permits and paperwork they couldn' t go any further. Over in England they were able to go to his "manor House"which is now an very nice looking pub in the area. So why washe there at that time?...they think from mining interests at the time that may also include the alchemy of changing base metals into Gold. That would of predated also the Templar Knights being disabanded by the Catholic church...at 1300 AD. The cave itself they were unable to get into in the back of it...the area to small for most of them to fit into without digging the side out..guy didn't makeout anything but really couldn't see e\very well either. At both sides of the cave enterance there had been at one time small ledges..and the rock over the ages has washed down on them an solified. If they were at one time the oil lamps that were in rock... like small aqueducts for lighteing the inside of the cave, they didn' tnotice ..that my own idea on why they were there to begin with. It was quite apparentt that the chamber went in an ways...at one time. I guess I better get going. I took over the flowers to my neighobr that I promised and her hubby is now home. My Dialais are blooming now. Kate is visiting her mother this weekend, William is playing polo..and things are getting ready now for the baby this week. They are giving every new baby born the same day over in England, at the same hospital an "lucky penny" keepsake suppsedly. |

Sk Lawson Posts: 4014 Joined: 7th Oct 2010 Location: USA | Posted at 10:22 on 15th July 2013 My old refrige downstairs went out..and my anxiety tonight as to how to remedy this one is keeping me awake...eating..which I don' t need either..but I also feel the "protests" going on around the country with this Zimmerman case also, and as expected..no matter which way it went..there was rioting expected..well, we got it. There goes the better part of food in an refrigerator out the door probably tomarrow. But the refrigerator upstairs needs replaced also. They sell such crappy stuff these days... for such high prices too! I went to Safeway here in town today...and bought some $65.15 worth of groceries and wrote an $70 check. ..to get back some money. I was told that theycouldn't cash an over the amount of check for me...I said why?..store don' t make enough money to give me back $4.85 back. She said that I had to write some many checks there per month...well, I was just there 3 days ago and bought nearly $100 worth of groceries..does that mean I should of written 10 checks for $10 each?...anyway..I was pissed off...and there ain't anyway else to say it.... I can take my business elsewhere you know..and for the most part do..beecause the groceries are cheaper.. This is the number one reason this dam town is an "loser"...and always has been. I've had my bank account for 30 years..it guarantees any check I write "automatically" to never bounce as an bad check. Our bank manager knows me in person. So do most ot the other checkers also. Anyway..I still am simply pissed over this. Because have never given any lousy customer hassel over anything...so why they do it to me. Had I written the check for $20 over or more....maybe that would of been differrent..but under $5....scumbags! Must be on the edge of filing bankruptcy...when ever an business starts doing me dirty..that's eventually what happens. It's not me on the "up and up"..it' s them.....So my fridge going out just kind of puts iceing on the rotten cake of life today. Nothing seems to apease my uneasy feelings tonight about today's unsettling events.Last thing she asked me was for my driver's license...the first thing she should of asked me for. ..She's an bitch..I just know it...or they would of never did things like they did....bad business..and they don' t care either..This is the story of what most true americans have to put up with any more..just an bunch fo total rip off's while the crooks get away scott free most the time. Exactly what they are saying about this Zimmerman case in being not guilty. tI wasn' t there..so I don' t know. But you can' t carry an gun and not expect someone to end up dead eventually. They are to easy to use. |

I test drove a Mini Cooper for fun over the weekend - is it possible to be in love with a car? Classic model, pepper white, six speed, moon roof...yeah baby, that's what I am talking about!😜 |

I'm sure they are 100 per cent more reliable now. I was able to fix most of what went wrong myself, I bet I couldn't these days, progess, but I suppose it's better than having to carry various spray tins of 'damp start' 'cold start' or 'just won't start' and nail varnish to fix the cracks in the distributer cap |

Pepper white....hair (I know what she will say...What hair?) One speed... (Had a lot more gears, but age has taken it's toll) Moon 'ie' still possible... (Well after the weight loss, my trousers are now too big). How does that picture grab you? lol I can see the new fella has got to start saving his dollars, she's a high maintenance job! lol |
