Saturday Morning NGD

 Damn the bourgeoisie. 

Today’s weather:

How to dress?

Monday 5:45 AM

 Hurray! It’s Monday morning!

Jump up and down! Do a yippy skippy dance!

We’re getting ‘et done!

Sunday 6:29 AM

 The chill keep me in bed…

where I did this:

Downloaded this book and this book at project Gutenberg.

Friday 5:37 AM: Second Day of Golden Week

 

Some notable things about this morning:

Fog

 Low lying fog on the first street bridge.

None on the North Hill.

Monday 6:08 AM

 

It’s Autumn.

I’ll need more blankets.

Stupid me.  Yesterday, I forgot to attach the sign to my table when fundraising. I didn’t notice till the end of my shift when I was packing up to go back to Brandon.

Yesterday, I drank a can of non-alcoholic beer.

I was asked by one of my early morning early rising locutors if I ever slept. Till 5:00 AM, I responded.

Here is some NGD:

• En la fe hay parte que es intuición y parte que es apuesta.
• Faith is part intuition and part wager.

Saturday 6:35 AM

 

I can hear rain hitting the roof.

I had two classes this morning. One cancelled. Just as well.  Morning will be less hectic.

Today. Killarney.  Need a better location for setup.

Mosquitos.

Increased my French score to 89.

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.

Okay now!

 It’s just hot now.

Crappy Weather

 

There’s a breeze and it looks like it might rain.  I hate doing this job outside.

Monday 3:50 PM

 Very unsettled weather today.

Sunday 6:30 AM

 It’s going to be a hot one!

Saturday 4:28 PM

 A day when you don’t have to work is great: it doesn’t matter what season it is.  Be that as it may, I don’t like this day’s summer weather.  It is too hot to be out in it.

Huge Forest Fires in Ontario.  They are not being caused by Climate Change. Forests just got to be on fire to rejuvenate.  And this year there is so much of them on fire that even if Canada had competent governments — which it doesn’t— the fires are just on too huge a scale for even the best forest management to deal with them.  So both the environmentalists and Trump are wrong.  Politics ruins everything.

Examination of conscience: a daily task. Book-keeping is never neglected by anyone in business.

And is there any business worth more than the business of eternal life?

When their religious depth vanishes, things become

mere transparent surfaces behind which nothingness

can be discerned.

 Un gran amor es una sensualidad bien ordenada.

Monday 6:43 PM

 

It is hot in Brandon.

How hot?

Today, I talked to Spain. Heck, even some pretty Senioritas.  Earlier, I talked to Wuxi.

I then drove to the valley to see the Assiniboine River.  Boy! She’s high! I tell ya!  But the 18th street road and the Correll Centre are not impacted thanks to the dyke that was built blocking the Grand Valley Road 

And speaking of Senioritas, my wife’s plane will land tomorrow midnight at the Winnipeg Airport.  Tony & I will drive to Winnipeg tomorrow morning.

Monday 5:36 AM

 It rained overnight.

It’s thunder storming now.

Rain not welcome at this instant in history.  There are already floods.

Wouldn’t want to be outside today!

 It’s hot!

Tuesday 7:25 AM

 A lot happening.

There was all the rain yesterday.

There were those World Cup games.

The people I was teaching to and I was teaching English with had a rupture, overnight my time.  I learned about it this morning from one side.  Now, I have to hear the other side of the story.  I’m stuck in the middle again….

Tuesday 5:25 AM

 

We got about four inches of rain last night.  Lots of photos and videos of flooding around Brandon:

This was some flooding a block from my Mom’s house.

The basement is okay now.

Sunday 5:32 AM

 

It rained last night. Surely, you realize by looking at the photo.

Today, an easy morning. I start a fund raising shift at 10:00 AM at a place close to here.

It rains in summer as well as winter.

Tuesday 9:20 AM

 Was is there to say?

Rain, rain, rain. Go away!

I want to sleep!

I got things to put off doing.
