What am I Doing Here?

I need work on these things list.

I'm baaaack! (Jack Nickolson's line.)
It is going to be a hot day. Summer is only a few days away but the heat for the summer started early. I think I will complain now. I'm entitled.
1. The heat. Nothing I can do about that except strip naked and make sure I am not near any window.
2. I am fat. Well I exercise on our treadmill and try to limit sweets. I go shopping and sneak a few goodies in the cart. I just hope that I don't hit the next century mark on the scales in weight.
3. I am not reading enough. There are many books here so what's my problem.?
4. I am not working enough on my book. Well duh! It isn't going to write itself. Sit down dummy and DO IT!!!!!!
5. There is an election coming up and I do not know who to vote for. Well, talk to the Stan the man and research it.
6. Animals are being euthanized at an alarming rate. Why? Because they are caught as strays and have no chip or anyone who cares. Facebook is showing that some animals are being so abused that I want to go out and tar and feather the jerk who abandoned them. These are the most loving and loyal animals on earth and they don't get adopted and must make room in the shelters. Many people do not want this but ...and one can guess the rest. My heart goes out to these wonderful creatures. Not everyone can be Lee Asher of the FB Asher House post. He tries his bests. There are adoption events but very few dogs and cats get adopted. One person interviewed said that most people do not want their pet spayed or neutered. Why? The next generation of animals will not have to be euthanized. I wish I could help these fur babies. Dear God, please help these wonderful animals.
7. My balance and the physical therapy is going slow. I do not want to fall and get a broken hip. Stan is amazing but he has his own set of problems in the health department. I wish I could help him more.
8. My family in Texas have their own lives and problems but that is something I need to let them handle. I do not always get the news on what's going on.
9. I miss Bert and Millie. They came to Stan and my wedding. But they later got cancer and I did not know about Millie's death until much later. Bert did not want to talk to me much on the phone but he was having trouble eating/swallowing. I wish I had known about that problem so I could help.Graham did a nice job in hospital visits and post death responsibilities after both parents were gone. He is working to establish his own life. I wish him and Irene well.
10. This might be petty but I miss seeing my Astros on TV. It is always blocked out and I listen to the game on Sirius. It is fun to see homers by our guys and outs done in dramatic fashion against the other teams. We have good players but, sometimes they don't focus enough.
This is the top ten problems/complaints/worries/thorn in the side from my point of view as of today. Maybe the next blog should be the top ten good things I think about. That is only fair. If I can think of ten. Well it is off to lunch I go. I will be careful for number 2 of this list. time will tell.
Tomorrow is Father's Day. My father is dead so I don't have to talk to him. He didn't want me any way.
