Phone Issues! It seems like every one who use version or straight talk service is in out. I hear there putting all towers to 5gs. But I hear there a delay. But for last two days phone service been up and down. I need my phone to sign in and check out electronically. I hope there no issue when it comes to getting paid. I've document every thing. It been a while since I did any drawings. This is practice run for part of my Brooklynn Sketch Book Project. Confession time....I sure drug this project out for long enough. This one is about "Thinking Out side of Box" I'm also thinking of doing a different type of cloche hat.
Bart heading over to Seattle I believe this up coming weekend, or soon after, for his Proton Cancer Treatments. I thought he couldn't leave the treatment center. But no, he can. What I understand now what going on. He rent a sort of studio duplex for the six or eight weeks he over there. So after his treatments he can leave the hospital. Bart and Molly will drive over together. So he will have a rig. I'm guessing she will fly back to Spokane. Than on weekends she will drive over and visit Bart. And I think she taking switching off with each of the girls. So one of the girls will be able to see there dad. I understand the treatment can be draining.
Bart said he plan to get some reading done. He like me in one way. He is "History Buff" last thing he read was about Pirates on coast of Africa.
Work been going ok this week. But I'm so glad this is my last full year. I'm so ready to retire mostly physically, mentally, and emotionally. I could retire at 62, but I will loose 30% of my social security. If I was born one year earlier. At 62 I would of lost only 20%. Full retirement for me I believe is 67 years old. I want to retire and be able to do things. And joy life.
Thursday is 6th of January. Date our democracy almost fell. Scary! I think most people or I hope most people want best for there country. But I wonder about extremists.
Not saying it should be taught in grade school. I think the schools should teach "Critical thinking" I didn't say "Race" just critical thinking. I believe if critical thinking we wouldn't be repeating our self as much. The old saying "History Repeats it Self" well because we refuse or don't understand where the other so called side is coming from.

Yay for knowing it´s your last full year!
ReplyDeleteDo you have plans?
I just started all over again, aw, well.
Yes, Januar 6th will stay in our memories for a long time! Have a great day, Valerie
ReplyDeleteGood to know that Bart need not have to stay in the hospital throughout the treatment and has arranged a place for himself and also for the family to be with him during the weekends. Yes, once we are retired, we can enjoy the things we like to do.
ReplyDeleteThat is a photo of your son and his family? Nice.
ReplyDeleteYour last couple of sentences are very wise. Noted that Trumpet cancelled a press conference on scum riot day.
...our kids played with Bright Light, but they were good at picking up the pieces.
ReplyDeleteA friend in Salem surprised everyone by talking about her son's brain cancer surgery, that was yesterday and went for 11 hours. He's in ICU now recovering. I didn't know he had brain cancer. I hope all will be well for both him and for Bart. My phone is quite old and I don't know if it supports 5G. What a pain these new expensive devices have become in some ways.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your paintings today.
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice looking family, all our best to Bart and to you too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful family in that photo! Best wishes to your son for the up-coming treatment.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear about Bart, I hope the treatment goes well.
ReplyDeleteJanuary 6....it's not going to be a good day tomorrow.
Sending Bart good thoughts. I had a Light Bright as a kid. Loved it. I think. It's been so long since I thought of the thing.
ReplyDeleteHistory doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes. I forget who said that, but I love the sentiment. Very true.
I'm glad you got to spend time with family. Good to hear about Bart.
ReplyDeleteGood thoughts being sent to Bart
ReplyDeleteI’m glad you got to see your family
I had a Light Bright too when I was a kid. I didn't even realize they even made them anymore. That was a VERY long time ago. Thanks for sharing the art.
