“Hold on to Your Hat – Dear”

Jan 30th “Hold on to Your Hat – Dear”

If you don’t hold on to your hat – today – you will be running faster than you have, in a heck of a long time! The wind is cleaning up the streets in our neighborhood – blowing everything not tied down –away!

A man across the street was running after his trash can – what caught my eye was a big white floating bag – must have loss half of its stuff – and floating up and down, as he went to grab, for it – down it went, and back – out of reach. Looked like a ball team at practice – throwing a ball here and he would just miss it, and then, up and over there, till finally he got it, and threw it – swiftly into the can!

That’s what happens, when you are too much of an eager beaver in following after the putting out of your trash, too early. Have to give the guy credit on his report card at home – doing the right thing – get the trash out of the house, and in to the cans – and then to the curb – should just have waited for a later time! Wind blowing at almost 65 mph – even the snow flakes were having fun – slapping each other up and down and around – why hit the ground – when you can have so much more fun flying around – as if you have some place more important to be?

Even the Birds took cover – do not see the usual suspects that are invited to my back yard – must be staying in their “bird house” or in a much safer place in the Park – taking good cover – safely? If, only I could put the “roar of the wind” on paper – so you could just hear it a wailing – away ! No trash cans out here, at our location – “Dear!” – just not in the mood – to run up and down the street!
