CRISPINS CRITTERS

Been a bad weekend for ole Scotty.....

I climbed on the roof Friday to clean the fallen debris from the winter and recent storms and clear the gutters.

The downspouts are plugged up due to the sheet metal screws holding the parts together.

Looks like I'll have to re-work all of them and use pop rivets to put them back together....

I felt a bit dizzy on the roof and was glad to find myself back on terra firma to pick up sticks prior to mowing for the first time this year.

I planned on pushing the wheelbarrow around for the collection of the sticks, but, of course, you know that the wheel was flat. Sheesh!

So, I finally get that straightened out, picked up the sticks and fired up the lawn mower.

First pull, of course. I maintain equipment, dig?

After finishing the front yard, I nearly fall over from my illness that reared it's ugly head.

I decided that was enough work for the day.

I then took a turn for the worse with my sickness and decided to go to the store to get some cough drops.

DEAD BATTERY!

So I spent the weekend coughing and wondering if my "number was up."

My Landlord was off racing somewhere and I was on my own.

He finally came back late last night,
And today, I pulled my truck battery and was in the process of charging it in the garage when he came out and I related the weekend.

The battery charge didn't take and I'll have to get another battery. CRAP!

He will take me tomorrow to get a new battery.
BEST LANDLORD EVER!

If I don't feel better in the next day or so, I will definitely go to the VA.

I've also listed a few other items of currency on eBay.

Dram, I see that you follow my listings on eBay...Thank You! :notworthy:

Hope All are Well!

My Best Wishes to All,

Scott

A guy messaged me today about the sale of my coins and currency posted on "Craig's List."
Says he wants to buy it all.
I hope he has cash.
And a lot of it.

I sent this pic as an indication of a small portion.

IM002572.JPG

Each is worth $15.

50. All sequential serial numbers...
If you fan it in front of your nose, you can still smell the fresh ink smell.....

We will start out small....just to see of his interest....



Of course, if I meet Buddy,

I'll be carrying.

And my Landlord, who will accompany me, will also be carrying...

Folks,

Rainbow - Since you been gone.

Without being too political, that song reminds me of America.
And, now that America is now strong after 8 years of wimpness...

As a Veteran, a Patriot and a Wolf Pack Member, I say,
"BRAVO!"

Enough of being pissed on as a country by the world and enemies.

It's time to show our strength!

I will see your diary and add a train.

"Crazy Train"

Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe. it's not too late
To learn how to love, and forget how to hate

Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train
I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train

I've listened to preachers,
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train
I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train

I know that things are going wrong for me
You gotta listen to my words, yeah, yeah

Heirs of a cold war,
That's what we've become
Inheriting troubles,
I'm mentally numb
Crazy, I just cannot bear
I'm living with something that just isn't fair

Mental wounds not healing
Who and what's to blame
I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train
I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train

If so, perhaps I can help.....



Never show your cards and always play your best hand, dig?

When the world around you falls,
and the Patriot's bugle calls,
Will you answer? Yeah....
Will you answer?

When life is hard every day,
and things don't go your way, (at all,)
Will you stand up and answer the call?
Will you stand up?
(STAND UP!)

The world is counting on you,
And all you can do!
Answer the call!
And, always stand tall!

Ah!

A hot shower, a steaming cup of chicken noodle soup with crackers and then sleep!

Hope all are well!

Best,

Scott
 

Joke of the day- Mom: Son, why dont you talk to Mark anymore? You used to be best friends.

Son: Well would you talk to someone who is stupid, uses drugs and is an alcoholic?

Mom: Of course not.

Son: Well neither would he.

Scott, hope you feel better! Man mowing for the first time this year!!! I wish I was!! I still got snow!!!!

As a Veteran, and what I have experienced,

I can only hope that soon I'll be able to connect with other
Vets who may have difficulties adjusting to being back "In the world."

That is why I decided to pursue a College Degree and look for opportunities to volunteer.

America needs more Heroes and those who provide support for our Heroes.

I hope to be one to provide help....

God Bless our Veterans and active Military,
And God Bless America!

Something recently brought to my attention....

Veterans Court | Hall County, GA - Official Website

I have a meeting possibly scheduled soon with Judge Roberts....

My Landlord's Brother, who is a lawyer, can introduce me to the Judge and the program....

Of course, I'll have to further look into the details....

From what I understand,

This is a judicial review that offers opportunities to Veterans accused of minor offenses to complete requirements to avoid jail time and further obligations relating to non-violent charges.

Sounds like I am called.....:hello2:

Yeah, Love stinks.

Love hurts.

Don't love and you won't hurt...

I've loved and It always hurt....

But I still love.
And, I guess, it will always hurt....
'Cause I'll always love....

Nightmares?

Yeah...
