I Can't Think Of A Title For This One.

Sorry about the lack of pictures on yesterdays bit of silliness. My camera was playing up. Yeah right! It was I tell you. I lied about the thong too. I haven't worn a thong ever! Well all right then, except for the time when my ex wife bought me one back from an Ann Summers party. I only wore that once I can tell you. It's not nice when your own wife laughs at you and says that you don't fill it like the bloke at the party did. Never again! Besides, it was very cold that night!

Anyway it was good to write a bit of nonsense yesterday. I'm not sure if I should admit this, but sometimes when I ramble away like that, I make myself laugh. It's a good antidote to some of the heavier stuff that has been occupying my mind lately.

The last chapter I wrote was very sad for me to recall. Sometimes I think to myself, did that actually happen? I can't believe my own childhood. But yes it did. My book is based on things that happened. Obviously I cannot recall conversations from those times exactly, but the events and my feelings as a child are straight from my own memory bank.

Yesterday and today I have taken a break from the book writing. My extremely handsome son George and I have been outside a lot clearing the drive, ready for my party next Saturday. The amount of rubbish I have accumulated over the last twenty years or so is amazing. When I say rubbish that is what it is. I am such a hoarder of junk. I am pleased to say though that I am not finding it too hard to throw stuff away.

Incidentally, talking about my party, you are welcome to come. I would love to see you. Someone. A blogging friend is coming. Female too. Obviously she doesn't know about the effect I tend to have on the ladies. Or perhaps she does!

  2. Wish I could be there ♥ It is my dream to travel across the US and abroad to see all my blogger friends. Although you are the only one abroad, but it would make it extra special.

  3. Laughter is always good for the soul. The ability to laugh is certainly why you have survived so well. Since I have no passport I am unable to come to your party. I expect a full report and many pictures when you have recovered.

  4. With the move I'm having a clean out myself. Hope your birthday celebrations go well and you have fun attempting to fight off the ladies

  5. How exciting that your birthday is so close! I like to collect stuff too. Am dreading the clean up I have to do this coming week in anticipation of moving day on Saturday. Wish I could have been at your party, it sounds like it will be a lot of fun and you will have to share photos with us!

  7. Too far to flap my arms for the flight across the oceans to be able to come to your party. But hey, I will be there in myt head. Im a bit of hoarder as well so when I move from here I hope to have a skip bin to have a massive throw out. Have a good productive and cheeky week.

  8. I too was a hoarder but I'm now at the chucking out stage. Isn't it kind of me to think of those who would have to clear up after me...grins. I wish I could come to your party. Never mind I'm sure you'll have a good time even without my presence. Hey, just make sure you take lots of pictures.

  10. Laughter is indeed a cheap medicine. But who can laugh when the roof leaks and the walls give in to floods?

  11. John, it seems from the comments made so far that you will need to get your camera repaired to take photos of your party. Phaps you will get a new one as a gift, which would be nice too. Sorry but we won't be able to attend as we are away ourselves next week, but. It going abroad and great Britain is crowded enough now with the Olympics and all those tourists.

  12. I hope you have cleared a secluded little corner for my tent. I want to lie in bed in the morning, with the sun pouring in, and the birds twittering, and a mug of coffee delivered to my door :o))

  13. All of these requests can be fulfilled except I can't guarantee sunshine Ilona. I expect it will shine though.

  14. I'm playing catch-up so I must go and read your previous post.
    Hey...I understand you questioning if your childhood horror memories are real. Not many folks will believe that such abuse really happened.:(
    If I had the means I would come to your Party. Please take plenty of pics!

  15. I'll be at your party in thought. Won't it be great when teleport travel is invented. I hope the book is not too depressing for you but I believe it helps you cope with past problems. Will we ever get to read it?

  16. I get that same attraction from the ladies. I met fellow blogger Bob from St. Lou yesterday. He taught me a few ideas to use with the ladies. As you can see by my blog comments today, my wife of 37 years was not impressed. hahahaha
    *note-- Check out the link to Bob's blog(7/30) for better hint at what the ladies will be talking about tomorrow.
    Sheeeeeeeesh!

  17. When my posts make me laugh I always have to wonder if I'm the only one who finds it funny. Maybe I should stop trying to be funny and work on cleaning out rubbish, I have a lot of that around here too
