Subject: Bees

I took a bit of time out and went and played with the bees.

Although I would like to keep a hive I realize that I don't have the time, fortunately there is a club with in reach and we have an apiary of 7 hives.
I heard or read that of all the the animals that man has got to work for him the bee was the first that was domesticated, and you thought it was something else. The bees make a substance that they seal the areas that they don't want open [or what ever] called "propolis" (bee glue) and they used it on the Egyptian pharaohs when the prepared the dead for the next world, and we thought that the bees only were for visiting flowers and making honey

It was a bad day to day, I lost a lot of photos which I wanted to share with you.

We have to have bad days so that we can have good days.

The only good thing about a bad day is that one needs them to use as a gage, and if to morrow is better than things are on the up. 
Spent most of the day trying to get Skype to work -everyone can hear but I am unable to hear them.

Making a habit

Hi,
I'm building the habit of blogging every day.
My mother  - bless her soul.
Had her grandson staying and she was trying to brake the habit/misfortune of bed wetting [he was at that age where it was possible 7 year old] and had some thing that he really wanted - a toy truck which was kept on the mantelpiece and when he had gone 20 nights he could have the truck. Well he had an accident after some 15 nights, when I asked why she didn't just give it to him She said that it broke her heart but if he could go the 20 nights he would stop the bed wetting, it would become a habit.

Strange,

B433CDFE-B71C-42C2-A5C1-D34C076A9851 4.000000 Letter Letter\signing_pen.imf Business Stationery Signing Pen SU1CTDEsNDYsgUmBSTCJlZU0KDgsTTCdhTRNiZE0kU0kjTSFTSiViTSBnZkkxcGNhUmBSYFJgSxJTUJMMiwwLCxJTUJMMywwLCw= repeat #ffffff X-ASN,X-ASH,X-AN,X-AP,X-AD ;

Strange, I'm 66 live on my own, do pretty much what I want; go to gym twice a week. On a Monday go to college, now that it is summer "bees" and a little bit of charity work a few hours a week [pay back – that's what I tell myself].

When I was 24, 10 days before 25, I was run over basically I was going along the top of the "T" when someone came from the other side and went down the tail. The result, I was hospitalized for 9 months eventually the right leg was amputated below knee. 6 months rehab, then 6 months "sick leave" where I took off and hitch-hikes around Europe for 9 weeks, (1972).

I have done pretty much what I've wanted to within reason. Unlike a lot of others who have difficulty spelling I find that I can't reed well, what I see isn't always what is written down, more than 6 letters throw in a "ph" or an unusual word in places I don't expect [you get the message]. However I have always believed in myself, the thing is getting others also too. I met a lady friend who said that it was my mind that interested her [and I thought it was my looks] this got me to realize that there are ways of getting by so thanks to spell check and Google's Dictionary.com.

In my spare time I was playing games on the computer, eventually I decided to rather do something that would exercise my brain so one thing or another and the thought of the possibility  of making a few $$$$; I looked, spoke, joined, left and although I knew about The 30 Day Challenge [had done that years ago – got nowhere], left the re-visit till last. In desperation re-visited "The 30Day challenge" only to find it is now just "The Challenge" [I'll tell you what is wrong with it there is no charge – or very little], and started doing the modules. That's life, the best thing is found last.

In Module Four-Day One Ed talks about The Julie/Julia Project, I listened and thought yes!, yes!, we all want that - but I liked what he says so I'm going to work at it. Well can you imagine my surprise when I saw that I have someone new following me on twitter and a guru at that? It is true that a house has to start with the first brick. Now that was a morale booster if there was one, if someone else can be interested in you then you owe it to them to keep their interest - amazing!

To think that Ed wants nothing other than to be able to say that he helped and even then he doesn't talk about it. If he was anyone else he would have a set-up where there was a membership and gold membership and had he started a paid training site when he first started .....  [read my article "Ed Dale" to be published in www.EzineArticles.com].  I'm waiting for them to accept my corrections and then publish – 7 days.

I haven't  made any $$$$ yet but I am getting all the bricks together. By the way if you are like me looking for help, look anywhere and everywhere but make sure that you include  www.challenge.co not only will you save $$$$ but you wont find better advice anywhere - if you do please let me know.

Submitting articles on EzineArticles.com is infectious if they will publish my article for me it will be a major achievement considering that I have a handicap [when I was at school it was called thick now it's called dyslexic]. The pleasure is in the feeling that I can submit an article and that some of the people who read EzineArticles.com will see read and them possible make some comment. I'm running ahead of myself I have only submitted the article done the first correcting now waiting for the next stage.

I', had a break and took the camera for some new pictures

Now have a link with tumblr.com

108AAAA9-F41D-401B-BCC2-7F22B2F57BC7 4.000000 Letter Letter\envelopes.imf Business Stationery Envelopes SU1CTDEsNDYsgUmBSYWBwSQkJCTFTTiJhShNiYGFME0wNDSRTZ04kZEwkTiNnTA0nUmBSYFJgSxJTUJMMiwwLCxJTUJMMywwLCw= repeat #ffffff X-ASN,X-ASH,X-AN,X-AP,X-AD ;

Hi all, today I have spent many hours looking to see if the lead that I was given by a friend Graham Bray <a href="www.easierinternetmarketing.com"> was any good. I must admit that this could be what I have been looking for.

I finally found out how to sign in on tumblr.com so now I have another link. Sometimes I surprise myself because when I established the link I didn't put in www. And fortunately I notices this when I was linking up from Posterous. Thanks for the help.

So close!

108AAAA9-F41D-401B-BCC2-7F22B2F57BC7 4.000000 Letter Letter\envelopes.imf Business Stationery Envelopes SU1CTDEsNDYsgUmBSYWBwSQkJCTFTTiJhShNiYGFME0wNDSRTZ04kZEwkTiNnTA0nUmBSYFJgSxJTUJMMiwwLCxJTUJMMywwLCw= repeat #ffffff X-ASN,X-ASH,X-AN,X-AP,X-AD ;

I'm trying [note trying] to establish another link this time with LiveJournal.

Because I trust everything to go to plan there are times when I am ambushed. I followed the instruction, then when I looked for "Welcome to LiveJournal"  I got "this has not been registered".  So after clicking everything I found that the email hadn't been verified looked at the email nothing there. Sometimes I think that I keep my brains in my back-side. Because I had to stretch my legs and while I was away from the computer It came to me "look in the trash" there it was.

Now I thought that it was just a matter of going to Posterous and "+Add a service" I was so happy.

No! For some reason I haven't given the right URL and to add salt into the wound I don't know how to find it.

If one of you know how/where and could help I will be extremely grateful and very pleased.

 

I do love this Posterous account, [like all things] it needs a wee bit of adjustment, but you know that saying "if it ant broke don't fix it" [I do fix the blog as there is too much empty space]
