I have had 3 e-mails in the last week commenting on my blue eyes...

So why is it only the physical aspect that is attractive

And how do you respond to being looked on as a piece of meat

I live in a small village. I need 5 minutes of walk to work. I even do not have my own car here. I use the company car only when I need, mostly for working reasons. But I avoid to use it for my own private scope.

I have too much free time so I need to consume it. I developed a daily routine. I walk every day to the supermarket and buy food. Just for one day. So I am forced to do it every day. I need at least one hour for this. So I walk calm, having a backpack, looking around, watching people, houses and gardens. The road to the supermarket lies close to a field. Amazing how fast the plants are growing. Now is the second culture. Sometimes I see also hawks. This road is forbidden for cars so one can enjoy the silence.

Slowly you get closer to the supermarket so the noise is increasing. Cars are rising on the horizon and the agitation take the place of the silence.

For entering the supermarket I walk through the entire parking. People with bags, in hurry, preoccupied of their own lives, never look around. They never have time. In the supermarket the same. Running around, from one place to the other. I have all the time. I have also the time to watch them. And I do it.

I ask myself if I will find between them an interesting person. What about an interesting woman? But I give up. I have the feeling the people are somehow in another world. A parallel world which has no connection with mines. They are fascinated of what they are doing. Driven by their needs, desires and lack of time.

Someone told me once. “Look to the people and tell me what you see? Are they aware of what happen around them? Or they are sleeping?”

Sometimes happen that I smile and someone smiles back. I would like talking to the people. But what should I tell them? All what we have in common is that we are human beings, nothing more. I have time and they do not have. I am present and see them. They are not and I do not exist for them.

So I return to my road. I am walking back beside "my" corn field and my beautiful hawk.

The following photos are not mine.
I stumbled upon them and just wanted to share the natural beauty
of the aurora borealis with you.

If you like, here's some beautiful music to listen to in the background
while you look at the photos;



Either way, enjoy the photos.

Have a beautiful day.

She is European, as well as being intelligent and sensitive she is very attractive; I do not want to show myself as a subnormal who resorts to an old and archaic cliche; and I am afraid that I am, at a glance, to be perceived as a dirty stalker.

Being honest and truthful makes an already beautiful thing even more beautiful...-"

HELP!

Been and paddled. 3 h 9 min; 10.04 km; 1042 kcal according to spy app.

Saw an eagle, for the second time in this fjord. Is it a young couple trying to establish itself in a new location? If so – that’d be totally awesome.

Saw herons and swans in a large number. Saw as well the couple with 2 cygnets, that I’ve followed since they were newly hatched in the end of July. They are growing contour feathers now and changing from grey-brown to white.

Turned the corner of Jönsborg and saw 2 roe deer: they stood still for a while – two beautiful silhouettes against the grey skies – and then disappeared behind the top of the hill delicately moving their thin legs, like ballerinas on pointes.

And on the other side – the absolute joy and the meaning of the tour: a seal was lying leisurely in the middle of the sea. Enjoying the mild weather of +5 C, almost no wind, some drizzle and light fog. Lying on a flat stone covered with water due to high tide. Like walking on water, but cooler. Stopped paddling and dug up my phone. It didn’t mind. Was drifting towards it with elements, it didn't mind. Took a few pictures, it didn’t mind. Didn’t want to disturb and kept myself at a reasonable distance. The first seal for four weeks.

Didn’t see any sea stars today... well, high tide. Another eye candy to look forward to.

For many years now I have experienced a breakout of spontaneous hives. It first started out as a tingling and weird itching and a "bump" like a mosquito bite. The thing had the weirdest itch I had ever experienced. It stung and itched for about 15 minutes and then it would disappear.

As I got older the symptoms got worst and I started noticing this phenomena would happen when I got the area affected wet or a cool breeze would pop up. It would affect just about any part of my body.

Then in the last 6 years or so the intensity of the occurrence increased and a couple of years ago the dang hives covered most of the upper part of the body and down to my belt line. Other than the dagnabbed itching it didn't seem to be harming me or making me feel bad like an illness might. I simply ignored it and laughed because it was so weirdly funny.

My move to Arizona where it is warm most of the year round has seemed to make the hives appear more often. Now that it's fall and coming to winter this crazy hive comes on me at night while I'm in bed. I have begun to wrap myself in full winter guard like sweat outfits to keep me warm and it appears like i will have to start wearing gloves as well.

Air conditioning has ALWAYS bothered me. Today as i sit in the library and the AC cranking away like were in a meat locker I can feel the crazy things itch and pop up on my legs and arms. AND on my forehead where the cap band covers the area above my eye brows.

Is this crazy or what? It started to really get to me since, again, it's been occurring more often. I have always kidded about me being allergic to cold. I didn't think the topic or symptom actually existed except in my joking! So today I googled the little sucker and sure enough it is an actual allergy.

The more i read the more I say "Yep". That's what happens to me. This phenomena has also been confirmed by the Mayo clinic so once again I call it by it's name: Cold urticaria!

Who woulda thunk this stuff existed. But here it is at this moment on my forehead itching away like mad, erupting then slowly disappearing.

So, excuse me while I read some more and if I don't come back to see the comments you will know I have succumbed to cold urticaria!!!

Rugby league world champions 2017. So that's the end of it.

...as our brilliant President's private doc. Wish I had one. While installing some electrical outlets at a neighbor's place, having no cable meself, I sometimes slum to indulge Fox REAL news. Just happened to see this military Physician's report on the President's annual physical and laboratory exams. A thing of beauty to behold! Not only because of the detail-as when students present such to a consultant teacher on a first victim during rounds. From hair to toenails/heels---and no orifice ignored, ma'am. Like one sees in the overly involved books on physical examination, almost too much pedantic compulsion, an*l at times, ouch. Only thing left out was a hearing test, which given what I've seen of how he sometimes strategically ignores some folks, leaves the question open. Same with the laboratory studies, again very thorough, focusing on pulmonary/cardiac and neurological health. Usually one says "for his age" here, but this guy is in better shape than most much younger men, especially since he is a fan of greasy sliders, and not of any exercise, unless it comes with a golf cart. Cardiac ejection fraction of almost 70%---give us a break. And at the Chief's request, not apparently ever done before, he was administered the Canadian 30 question analog to our old MSE, as a quick assessment of cognitive capacity, and scored a perfect 30. Now, not as valid as a full 8 hour neuropsychological battery, but hardly without meaning, and providing lot's to stump the reporters. But regarding the biases of the press, we are still hearing about his (alleged) unkind comments of a week ago. It's only the chirping of crickets on this wonderful newsworthy story, which presents our President in a remarkably positive light, except perhaps for the diet, exercise and blood lipid values---all not really big deals. Rarely a report no matter where one looks, but the R word fake news pieces continue. There's lying by commission, and now by omission. Who doubts for a minute that if the cognitive test had clocked a 15 out of 30, we'd be hearing about it for the next century, or at least until it was pushed aside by calls for enactment of the 25th amendment---or worse? They hate/fear him so much, it just about kills them to validly place REAL positive news anywhere. Pathetic. The broad electorate sees it all. A-V.
