  • First Sun of Advent is Nov 30th

    Consider this your reminder

    Surge, Domine, et dissipentur inimici, et eos qui oderunt te, a facie tua!

  • It's hard, but I know. Unfortunately, Advent and Christmas time is really hard and depressing for me.

    Hi Bataar,


    I think it is a very difficult time of year for many, many people.  You are not alone in that.  I know I am missing friends and family that have died or can't meet up with for various reasons.  Some family don't want to see me and my family because we didn't get the Covidvax or flu shot.  We haven't seen them in over 5 years.  We used to see them around the holidays but not anymore.

    Did you try any of the good suggestions to meet people?  Do you still have dogs?  Maybe you can talk to someone at the dog park.  Or find some winter hobbies when you can't go fishing.

    Bataar, does that name come from Tarbosaurus Bataar?

    I haven't been able to come up with a way to meet people. I need to find some kind of activity or project that others will be involved with so I can get to know them over that. My brain is backasswards in that I need to be able to get to know someone before talking to them. 

    I take my dogs for walks and I've thought about how to meet people there. Say I'm walking my dogs and someone is walking towards me in the opposite direction. Other than saying Hi or some kind of greeting like that as we walk past each other, I can not think of anything else to say.

    Hi Bataar,

    Do you give your dogs those pills to kill ticks and fleas? I'm thinking of getting a dog, but always the flea and tick thing breaks the deal. I don't want to give them a weird pill, but I don't want the bugs either.

    I used to give my dogs flea medicine that involved putting these drops on their backs, but I haven't done that for a while as there just don't seem to be any fleas around.
