Maybe More

 My wife liked my review of the movie  of "Planet of Prehistoric Women" so much so she can't wait to it, but I think she was just kidding.  But maybe I need to review of sci-fi movies more often.  Yesterday was a travel day and although I had something I wrote for yesterday, I deleted it thinking I can do better.  And since we got in early afternoon and thought about posting, I didn't want to write something just to post something.  

I want a post to be good.  And there are times when I've deleted something only to write it better.  I usually work a day ot two ahead always making sure I have something for the next day.  I wrote for yesterday while in NY, but I decided writing for today from Florida would be better.  I had a lot of time to think about what I'd say this Sunday morning.

I feel both my wife and I accomplished a lot in two months.  Our biggest decision is what to do with the house there.  We shared the house with two other couoles who all four thanked us for being there.  So, we had discussions that included all involved.  No decisions have been made, because both my wife and I like the house being there.  I love to visit there, but my wife says at times it's a little too isolated.

It can be.  But at the same time it is so peaceful there.  It has its advantages and disadvantages.  It was great to get back "home" yesterday.  We had a lot to unpack, but by late afternoon both of us watched some of the Olympics.  We are just going to relax today and try not to do a lot.  Our son cleaned house so we wouldn't have to, but my wife always finds things to do, or things she thinks need to be done.  

As to our plans for the coming week, we will see what transpires, but I've been wanting to get back to the gym.  I think that will be my first priority.  I've managed to keep weight off since my heart attack as I was probably about 20 pounds overweight when it happened.  Diet is everything and making sure I don't eat too much and avoid a lot of snacks.  I was really into drinking sugary drinks and now I have two cups of coffee a day as my only caffeine and avoid sugars and any other caffeine.  

My cardiologist said 185 was my ideal weight and that was some fifteen years ago.  Now I hover around 190 pretty consistently.  But heart health is so important to me because my heart functions at about 50% now.  She has some things she wants to do.  But this morning is Sunday and I think we'll both take it easy today.  These hot mornings are going to take some getting used to.  The days here begin about 20 degrees warmer, but I'm listening to Sunday Morning Coffee while smoking my Angel pipe this morning with some Old Professor tobacco.  My coffee this morning is Guatamalan coffee.  Thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.

It's About Balance

 I seem to struggle week after week as to how much football I am going to watch.  There for awhile I was watching all the analysis of the collegiate games and decided I was simply paying too much attention to football.  I cut way back last week and as the season begins to unfold I have to ask myself how much is too much?  I didn't watch one pro game last weekend and hadn't followed the analysis of collegiate games all week.   Then I found myself having a kind of withdrawal and decided I can watch whatever football I want to watch as long as it doesn't interfere with my Spirituality.  But at what point is too much too much?  My wife and I talked about this last week as I cut back on watching and we both decided that I like football and I shouldn't have to be thinking about how much or how little I watch.  I enjoy the games.  College more than the pro's.   I don't have to watch the analysis, but I like College Game Day and I like...

 I can never predict how any of my posts are going to be received but I do get a reaction from my wife quite often, but I'll post about my Spirituality thinking I've said enough and apart from a few other subjects my Spirituality posts do quite well.  I had yesterday's tobacco review done a few days ago and saved it for yesterday and again, it seems my tobacco reviews do quite well.  Then I wrote about my age and it seemed no one cared that much   My wife says that it's my titles for my subjects So, while I have so many subjects to choose from, today it is about how my tobacco choices influence my Spirituality or do they?  Not really.  It's just that I can't smoke my pipes without tobacco.  I could be smoking a lot of things.  Like the question asked when someone thinks you are crazy, " What have I been smoking?"  Well, at least you know.  It's never any "funny" stuff.  You could be asking what I've been drinking.  I have ...

Old Ads

-
 My wife liked my post about old things we remember.  And a lot of what I remembered was good.  But there was some bad things back then that are different today.  Back in the 50's and 60's and even into the 70's advertising in both magazines and TV were incredibly sexist.  I don't have the space in one post to list all the ads, but really they can be summed by saying that a lot of advertising was incredibly sexist. I 've mentioned my wife lit my pipe for me just a few times, but these days she can barely tolerate the aroma of my most flavorful Aromatic tobacco.  She liked everything I said in that post except my mentioning Old Professor pipe tobacco.  Ironically, I like Old Professor the most and she hates it the most.  So, when I mentioned it, she did too.  But back in the day a man smoking a pipe was his lifestyle.  Today, it's a hobby, and not just for men. But too back in the day, no woman could walk down the street without some perv...
