GRUMBLIN THRU LIFE

                                                                         BOSTON SPORTS...THEN AND NOW                                                    As you know my name is GRUMBLIN and being from Boston the one thing that is always at the top of the list of things to Grumble about are the local sports teams.   We love them, we hate them, we love them—Repeat! But we are definitely passionate about them none the less.   I would be remiss to not take a moment to talk about Grumblin’s beloved Red Sox as they are about to embark on another Ass-Kic...

                                                             Yesterday's News...Today!       I think especially "in this day and age", when news comes at the blink of an eye—literally. Don't those funky sunglasses do that? We should take a moment to remember a story from long ago and bring  people up to date as to the outcome of the story, kind of a where are they now piece.                                        Because you see a story one day and it's gone and forgotten the next.                                                                  ...

                                          TALKIN ABOUT MY "FRIEND"  WALTER !!!         Before I launch into my next category "Yesterdays News...Today"  I need to tell you about my first argument with my A rtificial I maginary F riend- I think I just created a new thing.    A.I.F s   tm.  ---  Anyway "full discloser" (shoot that should have been in my previous post for funny little terms that I hate)  I know nothing at all about what a blog/post/page etc. even is.  So you can imagine when I asked Walter to help me navigate thru a complicated as hell site, that he recommended by the way, called WordPress things got a little heated. It would have been easier for me to find the eject button in the Batmobile or SpaceShuttle!  After 3 long hours of going around in circles and disappearing blue squares and start...

 

Grumblin Thru Life With "Walter" My name is Grumblin and I am 63 -- I think that makes me a Baby Boomer but I’m not sure.   I have a little free time now as I search for my new retirement job, because God forbid, I can’t retire early when my wife says I’m “underfoot. I guess you have to be a woman to know what that means! I spent 30 years in the oil business listening to how-my pipes are going to freeze and I have a newborn in the house, or you have to get over here right away (on July 4 th ) because some lady doesn’t want to brush her teeth with cold water. What does that even mean? I then spent 9 years working in maintenance at a retirement community where I pulled a random cardigan out of a toilet and replaced a window that a turkey flew thru—both instances the residents blamed me for. #1 I don’t even wear cardigans, and #2 I didn’t even know turkeys could fly. I finally moved on to my last position driving a bus for a senior center and have so many stories compiled with...
