TITANIC, A COUNTRY DRIVE, CHEM-TRAILS AND LIFE IN GENERAL

~Beautiful ROSE wearing the HEART OF THE OCEAN necklace~

AUGUST 1st here we come.  NEW MONTH HAS STARTED. I had to go walking.  It's been 2 weeks since I walked the track.  I knew I needed to take it easy since I've been ill.  The coughing now is probably from lungs getting irritated due to excessive coughing with the co v id.  ASTHMA.

SO I WALKED 1/2 a mile instead of a full mile.  Got to the track before it hit 80 degrees.  It'll get extremely HOT later in the day.  I walked 15 minutes and got some exercise plus my VITAMIN D.  Pleased with the outcome.  

Afterwards, we went to pick up the mail from the post office.  I had a check that I needed to cash so we detoured on the way to the BANK to a small community to see a new mural that has been painted on the side of a business building.  We took the Interstate to the BANK to purchase some $2 bills.  The BANK only had 18 $2 bills, so I was contented to get that many.  I like saving these and using them for Birthday gifts.  On the way HOME, I stopped off at a THRIFT SHOP.  Picked up 3 t-shirts for Lil Dude.  I remember well when a child's t-shirt was a quarter not a dollar an a half.  sigh.  Such is LIFE.    

I purchased a small hammered aluminum bowl with lid for $3.oo.  Thought it was worth that much.  Drove HOME unloaded the spoils and fixed LUNCH.  Resting now.  Think it's NAP TIME.  Ready for a break.  Will shampoo my hair after a NAP.  

The WATKINS shampoo I used last time was a disappointment.  It didn't suds up and it felt like I didn't get the shampoo washed completely out even though I rinsed it well.  Will try something else this time.  

Will have vegetables for SUPPER.  We were given some corn on the cob, so I think we'll have this plus some cherry tomatoes from our patio garden and some turkey patties.  Water to drink. Sounds like a decent meal to feast on.

Noticed some of the leaves at the tops of the trees are turning bright yellow.  Signs of an early AUTUMN.  We haven't reached many days of 100 degree weather so I am a bit miffed that the leaves are turning so soon in mid-Summer.  The CHEM-TRAILS are affecting the environment. It's not a hoax or conspiracy.  General condensation that comes from flying aircraft, stays in the air for a short time then dissipates when CHEM-TRAILS stay in the sky for hours on end. Chemicals that are sprayed come from the tips of the aircraft's wings as general condensation comes from the engines.  I need to contact my Representatives in Washington DC and voice my concerns.  I can do that as an old woman out in the boonies.  OLD LIVES MATTER as well as young.  We all need to breathe.  I will start recording when aircraft has sprayed chemicals in the air and see how soon after they spray that my asthma acts up.

Last evening we did get some rain and the scent of KANSAS RAIN was present.  It reminds me of an early SPRING shower.  Fresh scent.  It thunder some, but overall wasn't a storm to hide oneself in the basement.  During the storm, we watched the 1997 movie, TITANIC.  Tis 3 hours long.  Toward the end of the movie when so many are living their last few minutes of life, we skipped this part of the film.  I didn't want to see it all over again.  We went to the theatre when the movie first came out loving the costuming and the interior of the luxury cabins.  

HEART OF THE OCEAN NECKLACE.  I didn't like the ending where Rose drops the huge blue, heart shaped diamond necklace into the ocean.  I remember thinking what a waste...she could have sold it and fed the poor in addition to giving her granddaughter that was taking care of her a sizable amount to help her out.  I thought the same thoughts last night.  

Some of the language was rough, some nudity, but overall a pretty good movie.  27 years ago, I watched this film for the first time on the oversized silver screen.  Have mercy, time gets away from me.  I'm an old woman now myself.  Best get on with it.

I wish I had been eating better back then.  I thought I was, but now I know I wasn't. I am OBESE and it seems like I am stuck being heavy set and not liking it.  I don't like it.  I truly don't.  One shouldn't cut the calories too low when having hypothyroidism.  Aim for 1000 to 1200 calories a day.  You can KILL the metabolism when starving.  I will attack this disease with exercise, healthy eating, supplements and water.  I will return to recording what I eat during the day and be as truthful as I can.  No cheating.  

I will work on correspondences this evening and maybe a load of laundry.  I need to make a date to vacuum the upholstered living room furniture.  I desire to be a better housekeeper.  I have not been keeping up on the housekeeping like it should be done.  Always room for improvement.  

God Bless and don't let your attitude sink the boat,
