We're back! Taking a leap of faith

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed

Bob Dylan - Things have Changed


It's been a while.   I never wanted to let this blog go for as long as I have but things happened.  First off for whatever reason we lost our Facebook accounts - both for this blog and my personal account.   I still don't have access to it and by now, I've reached the conclusion that I never will.   

Most, if not all of my readership came from Facebook.   

Then we had some changes in the job, some health problems.  Some things that made 2024 a mess, and before I knew it is the middle of November and I'm looking at a blank page and asking myself "What can I write about?"

So, just to fill everyone in, I'm slowly but surely poking my head out and again.   I'm working in insurance again and even created my own website to help - ReppartWilson.com - which will be my business site, I'm even debating about doing a few YouTube videos to give my personal opinion about the products that you should look for.   

I've also had a small barely used Instagram account which may start to get more use, both as an advertising tool and social media site.  I even have a Tic Tok account but again that more to look at news and video's than to actually be used for anything else.

In the coming months, I'm going to have a lot to learn, but you know what.   I'm doing this.

I am taking a leap of faith and going into something I love.  Helping people.   

What?  You did think I was going to say insurance sales, did you?   

But all jokes aside, this is what I do.  You can't hide in the bushes forever.

What all the cool kids are reading.

The Home Improvement Blues

      When I sit down to write something, I do so for two reasons; the first is that yes, I want to remember my thoughts and feeling about a particular moment in time, so in some ways this blog serves as my journal.  The second reason is that I hope to impart some knowledge or information on.  In the hope that you, gentle reader, might learn something new or, more likely, avoid the mistakes I make.        I leave that decision up to you.       Thus, in some ways you can blame our youngest cat, Bobble, for our upcoming spending a lot of money on window's and other home improvements.       Our first winter in Western Pennsylvania was not really that bad.  This year it seemed we had weeks of sub zero temperatures and several feet of snow.  Our house was physically colder.   Now if your wondering why I'm blaming the cat then please read on dear reader.   ...

Interlude

  Hey everyone!  Did you know that this page now has a companion Facebook page?    It will have articles, memes and such that interes t me that relate to this page but don't really apply.  Be sure to check it o ut!      I find myself in a holding pattern.       The generator has been ordered and is making it's way slowly to me, it will take approximately two weeks to find it's way to my door.   In the mean time I have the estimate from one  electrician and I'm waiting on the estimates of two more.   I am a bit fearful that I will have no choice than to go above my self imposed $1500 budget.        I'm also fearful that after having all this work done, that the generator will sit unused in my shed.  Although if I am serious about becoming more self sufficient, then I'm sure that it will come in use, somehow and someway.       It has occurred t...

The American Climate Corps and other good news

 Generally speaking I don't trust the government when it comes to climate.  Here in America we basically have an Oligarchy - where a few rich asssholes are more concerned with maintaining their own power than doing what is best for the country overall.   This has not given me much hope for the future.  In fact, I've reached the conclusion that we simply will not be able to relay on the government going forward.  I'm not a doomsayer but the government at the highest levels simply isn't functioning the way it should and because of that it's simply not going to be able to handle the environmental and other climate related challenges in the future - such as massive immigration caused by failing crops.  Due to their age, most of our leaders are living in a world that no longer exists. So, why does President Biden's American Climate Corps pigued my interest? Two reasons really, it is an understanding that we have to do something sooner than later.  Wel...
