Wise Old Bird

"The wise old owl, sets in a oak

the more he saw, the less he spoke,

the less he spoke, the more he heard,

why can't we all be like that wise old bird."

That has always been a favorite of mine and how true.  Not to sound like a broken record but yes there was more snow to clear this morning, was suppose to snow all day, but was pretty much over and done with mid-morning.  On the bright side of all this, the temp got into the 20's today....whew, 20's like a heat wave!  One more day for this week, tomorrow will most likely be a 'long' day having have everything out for Thursday through Monday.  But it will be nice having the 4 day weekend.  According to "NORAD" Santa is on his way in about 6 hours.

Speaking of Santa, I received an early Christmas present from the county today, yes...the annual property tax bill.  Well Wha-hoo!  Just what sort of a sad kinda joke is that?  Oh yeah, Merry  *$#*ing Christmas!  They couldn't get it out at the end of November or next week after Christmas...NO, it has to arrive the day before.  Just one of those "just to piss you off" things! Okay, got that off my chest.

I was going through some old CD's and came across one that had a bunch of old photos, most of which were either actual photos that had been scanned into the PC a few years ago, there were some that came from Seattle Film Works CD's that I used when I still used and actual 35mm 'film' camera.  That was a pretty cool find, I exported from disk to HD and did some re-arranging of the photos.  Once that was done I uploaded them to my Picasa Web Album.  Nice to always move forward, but every once in a while stopping and taking a look back brings back some forgotten memories.  As the days pass there is getting to be more behind then there is forward. Something to think about now and again...

Well, I guess that I've put in my two cents worth for today, so with that I will end this as it began with another favorite...

"But those behind cried  "FORWARD"

and those before cried  "BACK"
