Scott ⋅ 69

Retired factory worker in the USA. Been on here off and on for a while and like to try different ways of doing things on here. I used to care and reach out to people on here then I realized most folks just want to bitch, moan and do their thing. Yeah and that's ok. Live and let live. If you want to comment bad, fuck off. Otherwise, I am a very nice guy ;-)

"The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise, we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them".

Buddy And Max Photo in Old

I am going to repot the plant I just bought (a leaf of it showing in the window in back) and the kids decided to play in the dirt before I do. Very natural for them so I let them. Here, go act li...


Insights about my past for one. Much as I try to put so much behind me, lock the door and throw away the key, the door always bursts open and my past haunts me. I was a very anxious kid that late...

Tonight, One of the daughters of a former coworker who died in May contacted me because I had requested an obituary for buddy the former coworker. I had been looking in the wrong place apparently...



The power was off for seven hours last night. I am trusting no food went bad and taking my chances on eating it however, the cottage cheese did smell kind of nasty. Very little sleep due to the h...

I don’t have any human children, but I do have my two birds and they are to me adopted children. It was a good feeling and humorous that some people told me I am a good father to my children a go...


It is funny to me how in the morning when I am drinking coffee I feel stoned and want to go sleep again, but kick myself because that’s wrong to do. Today I tried to prepare in whatever small wa...


Quiet at 9:23. I suspect the last cool breeze for another month or so. I savored waking up in the middle of the night feeling cold. Ah! To feel cold these days! Heat dome hitting my area starting...


This morning, waking up, I remembered a brown ceramic plate. I remembered it from my parents house I think or maybe I imagined it, but it was caught in my awareness wandering about a simple damn ...



Sometimes with my guts are gurgling, I look around to see who’s talking. At times The voices I’m hearing are not in my mind but in my guts. I have been doing good with my exercise. 3 miles or 700...

Father's Day in Old

Father’s Day is Sunday. As always, I truly hope no 20-something knocks on my door and says, “Hi Grandpa!” Or their mother saying, “Hi Dad!” As far as I know, I never had any kids.


I have been wary of the approaching heat for a while and thinking about how to deal with it. Mobile homes are little ovens. I have two air conditioners I can use, but will for now use only one. A...

Dealing with regret in Old

When I was working the factory, I would make an error and it would become a big deal. The boss would bitch about it and I would feel bad about it. Fortunately, the boss and I both changed about t...

The Stuff I Had in Reflection’s

It occurred to me today that younger generations will not have the trash impact that I and others of my generation had. Due to how much is put on computer files and not hard copy stuff using big ...


If anyone keeps up on me here, they know I have two Conure birds that are my life. Male and female, very different personalities. Their behavior amuses and at times irritates me. When I am home, ...

An Example Of True Love in Old

https://imgur.com/gallery/be-this-guy-CwCVobA


I started watching an old medical comedy that I’ve already seen. I wanted something light. What I had forgotten was that there was a very annoying character in it. I’ve noticed these days if ther...


Most of my life, my identity was who I was yesterday and all the time before. If you believe in reincarnation, you can make it very complex and say that you or I am all the lives we were in our c...


Is how for one moment looking at them you can feel such a deep beautiful universe singing screaming love and joy. For one moment in your day. One of possibly many. THAT MOMENT OF LOVE Can be a ba...


Most of my time I seem to feel lethargic. I have a routine and it’s boring, but I like that boring. Every day I try to do something productive around the house. Today I expected to be another one...
