Lima and Vilnius

 It was my first time, this morning, to talk to someone in Lithuania and to someone in Peru.

In Peru, it’s Winter. Although their current temperature is about the same as Brandon’s.  It is supposed to be Summer in Brandon.  This morning, I had to pull my seat pants out of the attic where I had them stored for Summer.

Wednesday 5:55 AM


 I am a up and at ‘emer! I am achieving glorious feats of earliness! Hip hip hurray!

217

 It’s the 217th day of 2026. 148 days to go!

Going to talk to Lithuania!

Tuesday 6:30 PM


 What a difference 11 hours and 50 minutes makes?

I posted nine of these view photos in a Facebook group called View from my Window.  One commentator said the view was spectacular.

I bought six books at a Thrift store in downtown Brandon on the road just south of the tracks. I bought two books on French, Gulliver’s Travels, a Rudyard Kipling short story anthology, Sound and Sense by Perrine, and a Chinese study book.  It cost me five dollars.  I took advantage of a buy two get one free deal, a Tuesday discount, and a Senior 55 and over discount.  

Casablanca

 I just talked to a student in Casablanca.  The topics of cous-cous and Marakesh were brought up during the class.  I was completely enthralled to talk to someone from such an exotic locale.

So, since returning to Brandoon, I had classes with South America, North America, Europe, Asia and Africa.  

I told the student to watch the movie Casablanca.

I advised another student to check out Kareem in Airplane!




Tuesday 6:40 AM


 







Where did the sunshine go? asked one of my morning interlocutor.

It’s coming I told him.

Scary

 


A mentally disturbed person walking down the street in front of my Mom’s house.  “F everything!” he shouted.

Wonderful wonderful morning!  Jump up and down and do a dance!

Two Books by Wolfgang Smith



I ordered these on Amazon.  I can hardly wait till I actually have the time to read.

Who is Wolfgang Smith? A great commentator on Physics & Metaphysics.  Also, he is Roman Catholic.
 

Princess Auto

 Doing a fund raising shift.

Praise be to God that I’m not outside.

Overheard some interesting stories of this and that.

Not doing good today.

I can see The Brick, Pizza Hut and Fountain Tire if I turn around.
