Just sitting

                   I am sitting here in Willard Library in Battle Creek Mi. , checking it out and working on the first of my projects for my Toastmasters club meeting in four weeks . I hope I will be ready for my first speech , I rally h/ave not done any public speaking since 4-H in my youth . I am going to turn sixty in a few weeks is it to late for one to try to improve his skills ,I hope not . I have been to a few meetings and I really enjoyed them . As soon as I give my first speech I will post here in my blog . The only way to make it work is to just dive in and see what i can do .
                  Later on I plan on checking out this southern cooking place downtown , the real test will the sweet tea . I sorry I do not have much to say , I have not been keeping up with the news , have not done any fishing in a while . I plan on it soon .

Just keeping up

                        I have been neglecting my blog , for which I have no one to blame but myself . I have been busy with work , bailing hay and some fishing . For the most part I have been pretty much lazy . This week been a good and busy week . My brother got married , my sister was in for Montana . I spent the weekend driving her and my cousin Jimmy around , so that they could go to their class reunion . Also it was Union City's 150th birthday celebration this weekend . There was a lot going on . I also started building a park bench for wedding present for my brother . Him and his wife like to take walks around the the hay field and I found the perfect place to put it . From there they can see the whole farm , it also has a good view of the house and barns from there .
                         I know I said I would write about my fishing , I have not caught anything yet . My casting still sucks . I have not found fishing buddy yet , from whom I could learn from . Today would be a good day to try but I want to finish my projects . Its a little breezy , cloudy and only 69 out . Yes it would be a nice day to sit around the water and be lazy . Just watch the water and just be outdoors .
     I have joined toastmasters to try and network a little in my company so I could have a chance to move up somehow . I have no idea if would help but its worth a try .
                          Here lately its seems I don't have much to say . I don't talk much and don't hang out with a lot of people now a days . Have no reason to . I am finding there has been less drama in my life these days /
