Thinking Out Loud

I’ve been scanning some old photos, and I came across a picture of my son that begged for a little touchup. Notice the resemblance to that famous director? Read the rest of this entry »

Just came back from a meeting regarding my pension – how it will be set up, what I need to do, what they need to do.

Imagine that. Lee Lynds with a investment manager. That seems a little surreal to me.

I’ve added another web page to the “About Me” section.

The section for Natasha is up, and since she’s my first grandchild, she might get special treatment and get two or three pages. Read the rest of this entry »

Since today was an ugly, rainy, cloudy day I added a couple of pages to the “About Me” section.

That is the hardest thing to do. Try it yourself. it’s hard to come up with notable and interesting facts about yourself that you feel worth sharing or mentioning.

I’m pulling out the dead plants from the little flower (weed) garden in front of the house today. It’s about 20 deg C, the sun is shining, and there’s not a breath of wind.

Being easily distracted from something that should and needs to be done, I decided to watch the ladybugs I had disturbed. They didn’t do too much, mostly scurried to find a hiding spot from the crazy fool digging them up. Read the rest of this entry »

I want to go storm chasing when I grow up.

Apparently, “growing up” and “storm chasing” is a contradiction in terms according to some. My sister said (not relating to this subject at all, just as a comment in general about my sanity – thanks for your opinion, Sherry )

“I dont really think you are losing it all that bad (yet) Unless you do the storm chasing thing. Read the rest of this entry »

I’m trying to modify the code for “Thinking out Loud” (this blog) so that it is personalized for me.

So, if you stop by here in the next few days, expect things to change regularly as I work on it
