Preparations are made

Posted on by James Argroves in A Fun Story, Encouragement, Eyes, Food, Sleep

Clothes are now washed, drying in process.  A completed task of tomorrow, now in the final stage.

Soon to medicate the final dose of today, the question remains will Melatonin defeat the zombies tonight.  I have surrendered myself to less food intake prior to bed.  That might be the aggravation that drives the zombies to wake me and force my eyes to remain open.

Tomorrow I have some papers to fill and organize prior to Wednesday’s meeting with the doctor.  It is a consult but I may be encouraged to submit to pressure when talking to him.

A goal has been established to remove the fur from my face.  I need to keep it removed because it drives me nuts.  The hair curls and digs into my skin causing discomfort.  Yes, tomorrow is the day.

I shall now make preparations for my final hour of activity today.  I wish that tomorrow shall be a productive one.

Extraterrestrial life

Posted on by James Argroves in A Fun Story, Uncategorized, Uncategorized

Been watching  a historic shows about space ships and landings around the world.  The commentators made some very good evidence for life on earth.  The building structures, the possibility of help from extraterrestrials to build them.  It is very interesting, but the governments will never let us know for sure what they know.  We have heavy equipment working daily and nothing that can move some of the blocks of stone across ground much less up a steep side of a building.  Was people back then less smart than we are today?  Lot of questions remain unanswered and we will most likely never know the answer.  Speculation of what happen then and could it happen again today?  Believe in extraterrestrials if you will, I will have to see one first.  The movie where the extraterrestrial wanted to call home from earth, ET was it?

Best Buy

Took a little trip up to Best Buy to window shop.  I am sad to say in one area car stereos I thought the offer was good.  In another area the area was nasty and a purchase did not give any items needed to operate the item that I was looking at.

The car stereo installed was a little less than $500.

The Sony Camcorder priced at $849,  Looked up on the phone and it came with some items necessary for the use at $848.

I ended up buying a Coke and leaving.  Now do not get me wrong I have bought from them before and I like the product a smart watch. $365.

I think I said once before that I will look at something at least 3 times before I decide to or not to buy.

I also looked at washer and dryers, I have been thinking about upgrading but not sure yet as the ones that I have are working good.

I get home and my sister calls me via video call.  We talked about 30-40 minutes.

Now back home and looking for some kind of content to express my opinion about.

Paper products

Posted on by James Argroves in A Fun Story, Computer, Education, Encouragement, My opinion, Technology

This post was to be about how paper products are produced.  As it was pulled up on the computer to be read or viewed on You Tube various things were going wrong.  The video was the easy part, it no longer was available due to the producer was no longer associated with You Tube.

Many years ago tree bark was used to write on.  Parchment as it was called also used.  Today the world is blessed with so many different brands,  bonds,  colors, and uses as in boxes, copy, notes, books, and even clothes (not practical but has been done).

Some paper products are made of clothes or cloth.  Some of cotton, and others of old paper recycled.  Tree by products are also used in the form of waste wood.  They take a pulp log cut the lumber out and use the waste products to turn into fiber, to clean, press, heat, roll, and cut into a final product.

Years ago in towns where a paper mill was located, the air would have a fowl oder because of gases put out from the manufacturing process.  EPA, and others forced air clean up and the manufacturing companies had to filter the exhaust before releasing it into the air.

If one sit and thought about it, books and writings have been around for centuries.  Someone very smart came up with the how to and began the task of producing paper products.  It might have been because a use of poison Ivey leave a few times triggered a need, or a pocket full of bark dollars was too heavy.  The marvels of invention.

Paper products is the name, the process sounds simple, but it is never that easy.

Sunday 7/15

Posted on by James Argroves in A Fun Story, Eyes, Medical, My opinion, Technology

I was in a Wal-Mart a few days ago and I could not help to notice that school supplies are out on the floor and people are already shopping for school.  Summer is not even a month old yet.  Back in the day when I was a kid, we got out of school the end of may and did not go back till the day after labor day.  We even learned a few things during the school year.  Sorry here I am personifying my story again.  Oh, you have never heard of Wal-Mart before? Sorry, it is the second to Amazon in size and money value.  I am not sure how either stand to the value of Microsoft, I do know that Bill Gates did well there, in fact still is doing well.

I currently do not have much planned for today, I will be out and about in a little while so maybe I will come up with something to replace I with.  Even with the war between the zombie and Melatonin this morning, I do feel rested for now and presently driven to accomplish something today.

Tomorrow a friend starts a new job and I do sincerely hope they will do well with it.  It is Verizon sales.

On Wednesday I  have to see a surgeon about working on my eye lids.  I am not sure it is my desired direction but maybe better this approach than replacing the lens of each eye.  A different doctor for each procedure.  I have been assured that the insurance will cover the procedures should I decide to go forward with it.

I may go to my local VA and order some new glasses or get her opinion on if I should wait.  Will see how that goes anyway.

I was just looking at the keyboard and found some buttons that I have never pushed.  I have had this keyboard about 3 or 4 years and never tried the buttons.  Something new again today.

Here is a good part of this story, I am positive today, will look for some new content besides little old me, and the funny part of it all is that I will be back.
