Another day....

...is upon us. The sun is glorious and very welcome. The sky are blue, winds light and I'm stuck indoors with this stupid chest. Maybe manage to get something done later. The Japanese Knotweed has started to emerge so had better get the sprayer out. It's such a shame that there is no easy biological control method. I believe it can be eaten, must check out what you can do with it.

H back to school tommorow. Probably the thought of it keeping me feeling yucky. Hey ho.

All hot air...

In twenty years time we'll all be wringing our hands and saying 'why did we choose onshore wind power'.

Future...

Before human kind can go much further we need to stand back and take stock. Within 20 years technology will have expanded to encompass virtually every aspect of our existence, we however will still be a bunch of monkeys clamouring and bickering over the upset fruit stand. Without a doubt we need to change the way we think. Conflict, politics, population, over consumption & religion are all aspects of ourselves on which we need to work. We need to elevate ourselves to a higher plane, see past the petty, embrace the positive and reject the negative.

How do we do this? I have no idea. Especially at a governmental level. Politics get in the way of government, short-termism rules but equally socialism does not seem to work either...nor dictatorships, total monarchies or despots. So, we must start with ourselves. Simplicity, quiet, peace, honesty, family and self. Simple wholesome food, simple entertainment, simple lifestyle. Quietness in our homes, workplaces and streets. Deal with honesty in all things. Peace between ourselves and our neighbours. Love, honour and respect our families. Love, honour and respect ourselves.

It's a start.

Writing

Well here I am, once more trying to write, and yet again I am drawn to the short-term, short-piece option of blog, Facebook and Twitter while the real works lies open in Word before me. My main character, young Archie Hunter is becoming increasingly frustrated with me, he sits there in the woods of Nova Scotia, the beautiful and mysterious Seq at his side and knows not which way to turn. I must propel him past the nefarious types who who do him harm, help him find his father and rescue their adopted young sasquatch 'Whiff' from the clutches of the baddies. Will he succeed? I've no idea, I'm only writing it!

This Illness Business

This unresolved Lyme disease issue is becoming a drag. Pains in joints, muscles, lethargy, forgetfullness, a cold that has become just awful. But what can one do? Doctor is convinced it isn't Lyme...but seems not to notice they didn't do the first test and was treated for Lyme before they did the next test. I was certainly better after the antibiotics but have relapsed. Seriously pissed off.

Never mind, let's make a positive of it...I can get more writing done and start serious promotion of my website. Wildpeople is a dating site for outdoor people and people who like outdoor people! Check it out and join for free for a limited time while we build up steam!
