An oryx taken in NM not far from me…
About oryx in NM…

Went up to the acreage I’m buying this morning & snapped a few pics in various directions from the top of the ridge on the property…
Also talked to the guy who owns the 37.9 acres to my west - super nice guy who’s an avid hunter. He bought for the same reason I did - hunting & shooting on his own land + the thousands of acres of adjoining BLM land to our two properties.
He drew tags for upcoming hunting season for mule deer, elk, antelope & oryx (yes, we have African oryx here!) -
My doctor asked if anyone in my family suffered from mental illness.. I said, "No, we all seem to enjoy it."
I thought growing older would take longer.
My bucket list: keep breathing.
Camping: where you spend a small fortune to live like a homeless person.
Just once, I want a username and password prompt to say, "Close enough.."
Being an adult is the dumbest thing I have ever done.
I'm a multitasker. I can listen, ignore and forget all at the same time!
Retirement to do list: Wake up. Nailed it!
People who wonder if the glass is half empty or half full miss the point. The glass is refillable.
When you can't find the sunshine . . . be the sunshine.
I don't have grey hair. I have wisdom highlights.
Sometimes it takes me all day to get nothing done.
I don't trip, I do random gravity checks.
My heart says chocolate and wine, but my jeans say, please, please, please eat a salad!
One minute you're young and fun. The next, you're turning down the car stereo to see better.
I'd grow my own food if only I could find bacon seeds.
Losing weight doesn't seem to be working for me, so from now on I'm going to concentrate on getting taller.
Some people are like clouds, once they disappear it's a beautiful day.
Some people you're glad to see coming; some people you're glad to see going.
Common sense is not a gift. It's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone else who doesn't have it.
I came. I saw. I forgot what I was doing. Retraced my steps. Got lost on the way back. Now I have no idea what's going on.
If you can't think of a word say "I forgot the English word for it.." That way people will think you're bilingual instead of an idiot.
I'm at a place in my life where errands are starting to count as going out.
I don't always go the extra mile, but when I do it's because I missed my exit.
I don't mean to brag, but I finished my 14-day diet food supply in 3 hours and 20 minutes.
I may not be that funny or athletic or good looking or smart or talented. I forgot where I was going with this.
Having plans sounds like a good idea until you have to put on clothes and leave the house.
It's weird being the same age as old people.
When I was a kid I wanted to be older... this is not what I expected.
Life is like a helicopter. I don't know how to operate a helicopter either.
It's probably my age that tricks people into thinking I'm an adult.
Never sing in the shower! Singing leads to dancing, dancing leads to slipping, and slipping leads to paramedics seeing you naked. So remember... don't sing!
I see people about my age mountain climbing. I feel good getting my leg through my underwear without losing my balance.
We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Made in China virus vs a made in the U.S.A vaccine? That was an easy choice for me. I suspect if it had not been politicized most people would feel the same. Frankly I think it’s kind of sad that people would let politics influence a decision like choosing whether or not to get vaccinated

For many of the unvaccinated it’s not a matter of politics, it’s a matter of not trusting, or being leery of, an experimental vaccine. I think that’s perfectly understandable. See my post above (#84) regarding the initial polio vaccine fiasco. I took the vaccine because of my age. If I was younger, I may not have. We won’t know of any potential long term consequences until down the road…

Do you need one of us to go there & cut you down?!

The polio vaccine was not initially successful…
It actually CAUSED polio & resulted in many cases of varying degrees of paralysis & even some deaths. I chose to take the Covid vaccine but that’s my choice. I respect & understand those who are hesitant to take an experimental vaccine - that’s their right. -

A YouTube short video - “Can you believe someone threw this away?”
This proves the adage, one man’s junk is another man’s treasure.In our throw away society, most people aren’t willing to take the time and effort…
