Have Lost Some Inches

Somewhere along the way, after so many back surgeries, seemed to lost some inches. Am now about 2 inches shorter than years ago, say when I was in high school.
Not that it's all that important, can get out of bed and at least can walk around.

If You Were To Meet Me

If you were to meet me in person, would you think of me as a normal person, nothing special about me?
Would you see clues of something hidden about me? Would my walk, my awareness, my eyes tip you off to who I was in the past?
Would my demeanor make you think of an important, confident person with a secret past, a leader?
Or would I be just another old man in your eyes, not different from any other man?
You would be surprised if you didn't know of my past, I believe, maybe even shocked. Many people have been surprised and shocked, truth be told.

Doctors Say Work Doesn't Count

Doctors say work doesn't count as exercise, but I can attest that after 35 years of running my ass off does count!
With the exception of bumps in the road with back issues, my weight varied very little. Night after night of constant working hard for 8, 9 or more hours, walking many miles in 5, 6 or 7 days a week kept me fit. 3 or 4 times a week putting away 1000 pounds of product loads is extra "exercise". Very little time to sit and rest, always on the go.
While the heavy lifting ruined my discs in my back, the walking alone, constantly making product kept me slim. All on about 1500 calories a day!
Even when I reached my 60's, wasn't until this current bout with 5 fusions, did I put on 30 pounds, which I'm slowly cutting (have lost 15 pounds). Man, it's hard to lose weight when you get older! But, I WILL DO IT!
So, work DOES COUNT as exercise, doctors are full of BS!

Unsettling Dreams

Don't usually have dreams (thank goodness n meds), but have had a couple of unsettling dreams past few days.
First one was in full color, my Mom was talking to me, telling me that everything was alright, that we would be fine and well taken care of. That she missed us very much, and was always watching over us, thinking of us.
Second one was also in full color. The door bell rang, and my Lady answered the door. In walks my Dad, in his usual green work uniform clothes that he always wore, clear as day! He broadly smiled at us, but didn't say anything. It was generally unusual for him to smile much, being a somewhat serious/stern/disciplined man.
That dream shocked me so, that I woke up right away. Both of them are always in my thoughts and in my heart, missing them both very much. Wish I knew the meaning of their "visits" to my dreams!

Some faces reveal that people are friendly, unfriendly, happy, mad, sad and many sides of emotions.
My face shows mostly 2 sides, pleasant n friendly or dead serious/cold. Pleasant side can greet people I see at the stores I shop warmly. Although, don't engage in small talk.
Serious/cold side can stop perceived threat dead in their tracks, saying "STAY AWAY!". I get that feeling most often in parking lots.

Falling

Through the years, never took much for me to fall for someone. Just simple things, like to be wanted, enjoying my company or just spending time talking.
That rush you feel when someone would be excited to see you and actually run into your arms, smothering you in hugs n kisses. Truly, deeply wanting you, eyes flashing with joy, a huge smile gleaming, sparks flying. Telling how much you were missed, the longing that was felt, no matter if it was just hours, days or weeks.
How proud they were to be with you, showing you off to friends and telling them how proud they were of you. The beaming pride you felt and being humble at the same time.
Have felt those feelings many times, miss them sometimes.
The sadness felt when all that melted away, when the there was no sparks left, not even knowing the reasons why the magic disappeared.

Life Goes On

Life goes on, even if it's struggle at times.
Still recovering from major back surgery, slow progress made in small victories. Can finally reach my right toes, a task made difficult by lack of motion in low back, just doesn't bend that way anymore..fused stiff.
Been battling a cold past week or so, but is improving.
Lost 3 more pounds, through hard work and focused determination.
Look at life as a battle, will not give in to retreat or compromise, but achieving goals set.
Not crazy, or indifferent as a hermit...............just comfortable in my life.

Got Little Rain

Got a little rain last night, a good thing, just .36 inches. Been too dry for a long spell! Plants will enjoy it, am sure!
Feel sorry for California, though, they got hammered with rain/floods. They can't seem to catch a break!

Through the years, have developed a way to compensate for friends/people in my life disappearing (Along with my distrust for people in general), or disliking me. The disliking me part is actually a useful tool, keeping distrusted/bothersome people at a distance. I hear the whispers/rumors that spread about me, but have a thick skin, and figure I'm keeping them busy, at least. Don't really care what others might say about me, or their rumors.
For those people/friends that "disappear", I try not to get close to them, or let them get too close to me. If I'm not important enough to put effort into keeping in contact with me, then they were not that good of a friend/person.
I'm a very independent person, choose not to depend on people or trust their motives.
*** Not so much here on this site, in day to day life.

In My Life..Weather

In my life, have endured extreme weather conditions.
Growing up in Midwest, lived through terrible winters, blizzards, ice storms n bone freezing cold. Summers could be 100 degrees/100% humidity, not all that different than the jungles.
Around the world, SE Asia could be chilly to just plain miserable hot, non-stop rain for months. North Africa/middle East was blazing hot with no relief, even in the shade. Central America was just another jungle, buggy, damp, n wild. Europe could be fairly nice to cold n snowy. England was so dreary at times, cloudy n rainy, or chilly n windy.
By far, hated being cold in the winter! Feet would be cold ALL winter! Bundling up with so many layers, that I could hardly move. Then, shoving snow, would sweat until soaked under all that clothing!
So, feel so sorry for those in the deep freeze back East!
