It just released in theaters this weekend. Its worth a watch in my opinion but just like the marvel movies you have to try to keep your brain from going back to the books and watch it as a movie if that makes sense

I had already been running track and cross country many years before i read the book, so i identified VERY closely on how the boys felt during the march…cramps, blisters, fatigue, even the dio. So when i read the book it felt like i could have easily been one of them.

Years ago I had a cat that on a couple of occasions brought in a snake and let it go after playing with, but not killing it.

Hopefully not a rattlesnake...

Sitting on my couch today relaxing and watching tv and randomly get a ring doorbell notification “there’s a person in your backyard” so I jump up and look out the kitchen window and some random lady had walked all the way right up to our patio/fire pit area and was just standing there so I secure my family and open the door and ask, can I help you? She looks at me and shakes her head and just says no. I say ok then what the hell are you doing on my property? She kind of just shrugs her arms and gives me a confused look so I say, are you lost? Do you know where you are at? She says kind of mumbling with some sort of accent “I just arrived here last night” I’m baffled wondering what the f$%k is going on so I ask, do you know where you are or where you are supposed to be? She replied with a name that didn’t sound familiar so I say ok walk around to the front of my house and I’ll help you from there. She walks around front and just continues right on walking through the freshly mowed front lawn and looks at me and just says “It’s ok now” and keeps walking then turns down the neighbors driveway. I watched her wander around out in front of their house for a few minutes, at that point I’m guessing that’s where she came from. I look at my wife like what the hell was that all about!? About an hour later we’re out front and hear our neighbor outside saying “oh my gosh there you are, where have you been!” I think it was one of their family members that is visiting and has some dementia and was just out wandering around for a while. Still have no idea how she ended up in our back yard that’s never happened before but glad it didn’t end up to be some lunatic crazy person. Anyways that was the highlight of my day, cheers!

My dad has some dementia. He has good days and some bad day. I took his car keys from him a couple years ago. But i tell you what, for an 85 year old man, he can disappear quicker than a 4 year old. Just last week he was just cresting the rise on our gravel driveway on the john deere riding lawn mower. He took a right turn out of the driveway and hopped on the county road. Glad no cars ran him over.

Yeah that’s sad to see happen to once sharp minds and can definitely be dangerous too, once I got the drift that’s what was going on with this lady earlier I almost instantly let my guard down and went into help mode which she pretty much refused but still tried to follow and watch where she went and that she was safe. I bet that was scary seeing your dad cresting the hill on the John Deere I’d be booking it to catch up with him too! Sad to have to take away car keys too but it’s for their own safety and others too. Had to take my dads keys not because of dementia but because his neuropathy was so bad from his chemo he couldn’t feel the pedals with his feet anymore and he was in agreement that it probably wasn’t safe for him to be driving anymore.

I had a similar story before only it was snowing, front porch light had burned out that same night, and someone was trying to open the front door.
I’m on the phone with 911, with a pistol pointed and ready to go..knew I was being verbally recorded so I rehearsing what I was going to say to myself, in my head.
What seemed to feel like forever, I see )and hear) the crown Vic whip around the corner followed by “police!!” Then his tone got softer. Turns out, cop recognized the (elderly) male as he is known to “get out” during snow storms. Shit got real there for a bit..don’t think I could go back to sleep when it was 2A lol. I had the wife and kids (youngest was being breast fed at that time) locked up upstairs and I was guarding the stair entrance and trying to actively monitor the front door, rear glass door, and all windows while my dog focused on the front door with me, growling.

That’s crazy, you handled that well staying calm, protecting your family and calling 911 at the same time to let them help handle it from the outside. Middle of the night and you don’t have a visual could have been a dangerous situation for that elderly man, also during a snowstorm you very likely may have saved his life.

I would have felt horrible if it had gone south knowing what I knew after. I’m just glad it ended well

Found a nice rock to add to the new aquarium along with adding a Java Fern as the first plant. Tomorrow will mark 1 week of the aquarium being setup. Outside of an initial bacterial bloom that caused the water to cloud up, everything is coming along as expected. I'll test the water on Friday to see where it's at in the cycle and then consider adding a couple of nerite snails if there are no nitrites. Still about a month away from adding fish.

Stepped out of the office for a quick break and this guy decided to come hang out with me for a while. I did not, however, see any coyotes.
