WATCHING THE CLOUDS

When the seasons change..  How to tell, I look at the clouds and see how they go from seriously pissed off or have the ability to be worked up into a lather, to being lumbering and laid back  in what I like to call chill mode..  I transfer from now to what it is like in relation to the spring .. Counting to December 22 (first day of winter) and count the same amount from say now to that day and then count away so say it is eight weeks until the first day of winter (exactly) then count two months forward from that day or Feb 22      are these two dates relative in that way??  Usually it is colder in February than it is in October but when the days are relative this way are they that opposite??  It's like counting to June 22 from May 3 lets say.. May 3rd to June 22 is about seven weeks give or take and seven weeks after June 22 is late July , however it always seems so much hotter in July than May, or maybe we are just so tired of the heat.. Wouldn't it be nice to have Mays weather in late July...

Went to the pumpkin patch yesterday..  It was really nice to have the whole fam damily     the whole dam family there ... EVEN LUCY  who I thought wouldn't go because she wouldn't feel very good..  As much as it felt good being there it wasn't the same as before..   as we grow older those feelings change..  But it is nice to have an outing like this even if everyone splinters off and goes their own way.. Some of us were in the maze while others were elsewhere ..  We went through kinda quickly, I tagged along with Donald and Ian and Lucy.. While Lucy said absolutely nothing to me until just before we left and it was me (I  for proper English)  who asked her how she was getting along and she said fine, fixing to be a whole lot better in  a few months and I told her I hear ya.. That was all and that was enough .. it was a start..  Tried to talk to Donald but he was somewhere else, in his head I think.. Bob seemed to be somewhere else as well, in fact there seemed to be a bit of a strain feeling from the entire lot there so rather than push my luck I went back towards the hayrack ride.. And when that was over we left.. Not sure if anyone else was torqued about that but mom was cold and in the short amount of time she sat out there while we walked through the maze she went from perfectly fine to freezing.. Me, I haven't felt cold yet ( I know I should close my bedroom window but I like to holdout as long as I can)..  We got to have the boo for the remainder of the afternoon, which was fine for mom, she likes to have him around here.. There was a question of why Tabitha took the twins out there but it was her call..  After we got back home mom said she was sure no one would stop by before heading on home and while that was figured to be the case I knew something they didn't.. Mom made her sloppy joes      sloppy hosay and we feasted on that at supper time.. Your lose was my gain.. We'll have leftover joes for a while and that's ok with me.. ..

We had sloppy joes for supper, Ian wanted some but then decided (after a lot of himin and hawin) to have serial or supper, her was hungry for breakfast and as it turned out he had two bowls of that.. Totally stunned me because he usually wants a big bowl full and then leaves a good portion.. We do make a big deal when he eats a lot because we want to see him eat.. I know the day is gonna come when we will be saying "you're eating AGAIN??".. 

Took him home at a little after six last night, my first driving after the sun went down with the new vision helping things (glasses) and everything wasn't fine going down, but I've always hated driving towards the sun even though the sun was beyond the horizon, it was still the back light situation.. 180 degrees direction and I would be fine but.. Then coming home there as no problems at all.. I'm not the most confident when it comes to darkness driving and haven't been for a long time now but I can get by alright.. I think I will always doubt my night driving.. Just the way it is..
