If I am whining again, please excuse me...

...this is under health/wellness as it is more healthy to get it out than keep it in, don't you agree...?


Poem Artwork

Quietness by local kids diluted
Warmer weather over all polluted,
Cooler weather into the night booted,
To live around noisy brats I am unsuited,
When will the time come that I can give up this of life chapter,
Need to live somewhere secluded,
Moving to this space I was quite deluded,
Into thinking I would like it, but of late I’ve concluded,
That living out in the boonies would be for me,
A solution that I cannot be even to myself disputed…

Perhaps that is why I find it hard to give up my desire to live in a trailer,
Or even on a boat in which I could travel & be yes, a sailor,
South in the winter months, north in the summer months,
As it stands right at this very moment I CANNOT stand living in this apartment,
I am on the first floor subject to all the noises of the upstairs resident,
And the house is settling making all sorts of noises while it does,
I may be better living, rather cold in a shelter tent,
Well for memories in my old camper, I do lament…

You are whining again. Lots of folks still homeless today, living in cardboard boxes - be thankful for what you have.

DEAR KNAVE KNUMB KNUTZ ...

That is Why I bought my trailer 9 years ago. Smartest thing I ever did...
I am "Trailer Trash" ... and damned Proud of it! The Park happens to be a Senior Citizen one to boot. In warm weather, maybe an occasional Grand-Kid visits a resident neighbor, but I rarely See or Hear one.
No neighbor Above or Below, or adjoining walls... Peace & Quiet abound.
The rolling Semis on 695 at nite & the nearby Freight Trains can be heard, but in time those noises become natural & accepted.

Is the plan to move to Rene's on the keebaush? That would be ur salvation !
Hang in there Pussycat... Tooth n Claw !!!

I extend my sympathy to you, Ed. Silence and serenity are a rarity in this world/life. Love and peace,

I can so relate, I have close neighbors, that wouldn't make a pimple on a good neighbors ass. Ahh for seclusion and a little cheese to go with my whine.

What happened to your camper? I can appreciate how much you miss it. Maybe play your music a bit louder???

Love ya!

I hear you on the kids and their happiness at play and their sadness when things go wrong. They manage to scream giggles or wail with displeasure when things go against them. I couldn't handle it unless I was forced to . . .

I sympathise whole-heartedly, Ed. It wouldn't be for me either. I dread the idea that such a fate awaits me.
What happened to your trailer?
