**YESTERDAY. Published 2 collections of QUOTES, ETC., 2 collections of
TWEETS and my main blog related to Issue 2 in Ohio.
**TODAY. 5:00 AM 11/10/2017 ET. "It's 5:00 O'clock Somewhere." Allen
Jackson and Jimmy Buffett.
Veteran's Day is tomorrow and I need to place a new banner flag out front,
changing the position of the flag from the front porch to nearer Smucker Road.
On the porch the flag kept getting wrapped around itself and was a continuous
source of aggravation. I need to find a pole from the garage to drive in the
ground and then place the flag there like I've done at the northeast border pole
of our property.
The weather forecast calls for a high temperature of 30° with chances for sleet
and snow, then the temperature climbs upward throughout the coming week to
a high on next Friday of 51°.
I may have to wear shoes today when I attempt to place the American banner
flag out front, but it is still not cold enough to abandon my wearing shorts.
The only scheduled thing for today is to take our dog, Dolly, a Maltese, to get her
hair cut. She is sort of crazy when leaving the house, so Ryan will need to hold
her while I drive us to Wags & Whiskers in Orrville for her 1:00 PM appointment.
If I haven't deleted the video of me taking Dolly Jo to Wags & Whiskers, you can
view it on YouTube.

I HAVE SOMETHING ON MY MIND
**Are drive-troughs one of the reasons we are so overweight or obese?
Before Mother became to old to leave her home, there were many times that we
walked together, not using any conveniences or drive-troughs.
One was when we visited the area in Staunton, Virginia where my Father and
her had an apartment (sometime after 1940). It was just off U. S. Route 11 and
she said that Randy, my Father and her use to walk from the apartment uphill to
a mostly old soldier's last resting places. They then would walk downhill and
back to their apartment.
Things have changed since then. A new Interstate 81 that parallels U. S. Route
11, their apartment gone forever, a Walmart across the street and a KFC just
west of there which brings me to a story that was told by my sister, Nancy.
This KFC is only one of a few left with a buffet, so Mother liking dark meat
chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy and green beans, we took her there as often
as we could. Nancy said that she drove Mother to this KFC and upon arriving
they found out they didn't bring any money or credit cards. They told this story
to a person nearby, but this person was not a good Samaritan, not offering to
contribute. All of us kids would have handed over $20 or more in a minute,
saying to pass it on. As it turned out the visit to KFC was not fruitless. Mother
had to do a number 2 and then they returned to Mother's home on Herring's
Lane in Dayton.
We walked in the Turner Ashby High School parking lot, in the gated community
in Lake Wales, Florida when visiting Uncle E. C. and Aunt Ruth, Mother's younger
sister, park as far away from a store so we could walk the further distance, in
Omaha, Nebraska when visiting her grandson, my son, Michael, and many other
places that we had the chance to walk.
The moral of this story is that people want convenience, so companies are
provided it for them. It's not their fault, it's yours.
I forsee in the future that grocery and other stores will bring food with a
waiter/waitress to serve you, a person to clean your house, appliances, etc. to
your home and all you'll need to do is sit in your easy chair watching TV and
eating, dictating to the waitress/waiter what you would like to eat, tip included.
After spending 12 hours of the day watching TV, eating, peeing and pooping and
because you got so wore out during the day from all this activity, you'll need 12
hours of sleep.
