The place I used to call a safe haven has been invaded by sickos. That night I posted the surrogate blog, I got attacked right in front of my door at around 3 am. The sicko followed me, I felt I was being followed on he stairs but every time I paused and observed he stayed quiet and hid. I reached the 3rd floor and I was about to unlock my door when he suddenly came from behind and covered my mouth. I immediately took out the key from my door and hold tightly to it, thinking I would be defenseless and hopeless if he manage to get inside my place. I struggled and pushed to reach my neighbors door, I couldn't scream but managed to knocked hard on their doors, my knuckles are still raw! I scratched, elbowed him, bit him, kicked him, twisted till we were wrestling on the floor. When he held my jaw and tilted my head , I thought he was going to slit my throat, for a moment there, I thought that was my end I let out loud screams and luckily he let go and run away. It was no robbery, he didn't take anything, I was holding my phone and had my computer bag .

Got inside my apartment and locked door, called relatives and friends who are still working in the office. They immediately came, went around to check the area and called the police men who came quickly. I just want the whole thing to go away quietly but police procedures are seem to be very complicated and mysterious, something that I don't want to go through again. Even in the middle of the night they come to get more info and investigate.

Camera from neighborhood were checked, neighbors mentioned that they noticed a strange car parking near my apartment between 1-3 am for few nights so police are doing surveillance late at night here trying to find that car, I'll doubt they'll come back here but I'm staying home till I feel good enough to go out.

I'm a toughie but listening to my neighbors admitting they heard the commotion and me screaming outside their door but too scared to help makes me feel so down. I opened my door to my neighbors late at night a few times...I would still do that if they would need my help.

A not so daily commentary on my life, family, hobbies, general musings and nonsense.

This time he got involved.

Yep, instead of playing golf in Florida during this potentially devastating hurricane, he took executive action to help the residents in Florida.

Instead, of playing golf in Mar-a-Lago today,
he's playing golf in Virginia.

He really shows how much he cares !



I remember conservatives often whining about how much golf Obama played. But, Trump plays way more golf & also cheats on his score,
and not a word about Trump's golfing and the soaring $$$ costs from conservatives.

If you got a buzz on (alcohol or whatever), say hi.

Hi

It is now 4.45,am,and I am wide awake,and up since 3.30.
I don't believe I was ever a good sleeper,but,it is getting worse.
I'm sure shift work,over a number of years,at different times of my life,play a part.
Still,being reasonably healthy,retired,and not a prisoner of the clock,makes it bearable.
Living alone,I wonder if a partner would relax me more,and help me sleep?
This is the longest time I have been on my own,for many years.
In some ways,it's nice.
Doing my own thing,without offending,or finding things being changed,and not knowing where they are.
Still,man or woman,were not meant to be single.
Even Roman Catholic Priests were allowed to marry,at one time,until a stupid,jealous Pope,forbade it!
How much safer and better world today,especially for children,if that buffoon,had sense!
Right,my first attempt at a Blog!
Not too bad,I hope.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend,and,try not to be sleepless.
Nite/nite,or,morning/morning.
Mike.

Just getting back from taking a small trip....nothing significant to talk about...but, along the way I bought a pack of new socks. You know that little plastic thingy that holds them together...well, I just realized that you don't need to break that to get the socks loose. One side is designed a little thinner than the other side to allow it to bend and pull through the sock. It only took 30 years to realize that...unless it is a new design.


no feminism again.

My sister invited me to go on a trip with her to the next province over to spend a week at a cabin in the country. Will be little over a week. Probably not going to have internet but I'll survive lol.

My plan is to smoke lots of pot and do lots of fishing

Never judge a book by its cover. t's a way of saying don't judge others…before you learn who they are on the inside. It’s a great saying but the reality is that human beings judge books by their covers. All the time. Sure, you’re great once you get to sit down and chat but the world is judgmental.
There are different ways people judge you:
1. By your wardrobe
2. By your Time Management (punctuality)
3. By Your Preparation
4. Manners and etiquette
5. By your Language
6. LASTLY BUT MOST IMPORTANT – APPEARANCES

It is the last one that’s my subject of discussion.
Appearances can be deceptive
No One is Perfect
No one is equal
If you are thin, will a stranger assume you are mean, vain, and controlling? And if you are overweight, are you observed as sloppy, slow, and lazy? A poll was conducted by Rebecca Puhl, PhD, at Yale’s Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity, asking women “to envision a female stranger who was either ‘overweight’ or ‘thin,’ then choose one pair of words to describe her.”

Per the results of this poll, overweight women were described as “slow,” “undisciplined,” “sloppy,” and “lazy.”

The article also stated that, “a study of out of the University of Manchester found that obese women had more trouble getting a job … gaining any weight at all or having a baby face (chubbier cheeks, less pronounced cheekbones) could lead to lower wages and reduced career opportunity.”

On the flip side, the poll also concluded that thin women were described as “bitchy,” “mean,” “controlling,” “conceited,” “vain,” “self-centered,” and “superficial.”

All women – thin and fat – are judged by their size.

If these conclusions are based off of what history has depicted and what our minds preconceive, how do we change things for the future? Can’t an overweight woman be a go-getter with game-changing ideas? Because a woman is thin, is she automatically controlling; or, could she perhaps have fantastic genetics and is actually a very understanding, compromising female? And, when you see a woman on the street, at the grocery store, or at the park, are you subconsciously or consciously judging her worth based on the size of her body?

I think we women are all guilty of this. So, how can we change it?

If you are overweight and struggling to find a job, does this information push you to lose some weight? Or, if you are thin and always misjudged to be a snob, would you gain some weight to push those notions away?

Why do we care what others think of us?

What do you think?

During my browsing the internet through social media and somehow with dating sites , I've been astonished and extremely wondered how dare some men can Impersonates a woman character...showing love...deep affectionate personality, warm soft words with sexy pics!!! Just to cheat, deceive, bluff and steal money from men !! Is the ignobility has reached to this lowest level of ethics? Who gave you the right to rob or deceive the others? Beside many women got to adopt this track and they always targeted the Old Men......That's absolutely disgusting and really weird....of course there's many procedures could be made in case of worse..But I'm here blogging to warn people who not aware of such bad news people!
