From here to there more of nothing is in the making. Nothing is a lot less than what we do and to us it is a fun time but it looses something when I try to put it on the computer. I think the problem is, trying to tell it in a humorous way is beyond my capabilities. Also I feel that I need to spice up even the happiest of our happenings because most folks would rather be entertained than read a history lesson. So I stumble on with the history anyway.
Yesterday I took a 3.5 mile hike and come up on a small bicycle laying in the desert. It was nice looking bike but the chain and sprocket were rusty and the tires were very low on air. That led me to believe that it had been wasting there for sometime. No need to let a good thing go to waste so I called Uncle Bill when I got home. We went back to the area and picked it up for Tyson. A bad turned into a good with possible bad still hovering about. If the thing was stolen and just throw out there.............Well, we hope whoever lost the bike, lost it long enough ago as to not want it anymore. Or that someone outgrew it and replaced it with a larger bike and just discarded this one. It was a sad sight laying forlornly there in the desert. Anyway, we changed that sight and made a little boy happy at the same time.
Today, Terrible's Casino is having an anniversary party with free cake and champagne, two for one buffet and they're paying four to the royal. If you get four out of the five needed for a royal flush they'll pay you as if you had won. Getting four cards of a royal is a constant to any poker machine player. We may give that place a visit today. My new positive attitude kept me from typing, "we may pay them a visit".
The ability to get up and go makes us a winner no matter if we do loose a few bucks! I like that reality softening rationale! "If you're able to lose it, you're a winner".
We have no more right to consume happiness without producing it than to consume wealth without producing it. ~George Bernard Shaw
