Windows to Russia

Happiness comes in such little moments at times… The Tiny Russian Villages all around the Ryazan Oblast are facing fines and issues, brought on by an age old issue and new rules to correct these issues. They are installing trash dumpsters (mind you slowly, but surely) at all villages. Also this has never been done […]

While working around TRV and getting ready to go home to Moscow, Russia. Just some thoughts… We (USA & NATO) entered Afghanistan under false pretenses, we (USA & NATO) stayed in Afghanistan under false pretenses and as we (USA & NATO) tried to present false pretenses and leave….we had our false pretenses shoved up our […]

One of my favorite dishes. Well until the last few years when my insides decided to change how I eat. But that is personal and has nothing to do with how wonderful Morkovcha (Korean Carrots) are to eat… Ingredients: 1kg carrots shredded ½ tsp of onion powder ½ tsp of garlic powder 2 tsp sugar […]

To take a moment in life to listen to it wake up is probably one of the most important points in the day….God has blessed us with a very beautiful planet. I just wish that we all thought the same way about our planet! I call sparrows “Monkey Birds” and I sat quietly and listened […]

I started dehydrating plums this morning. Gonna make prunes and have yellow sweet plums for this winter. The fancy purple plum tree is not ready yet and soon they will be dried also. Don’t want to waste such wonderful fruit… Not an apple anywhere this year… Cherries non existent this year… Frost really did a […]

I wanna know what you are doing and or what you doing for short, was messing around this morning in the dark… Meet “I wanna know what you are doing” birdbrain I feel terrible, bad night, weather changing again and again….yet when this little bird, in the dark scrounging through the fallen leaves and making […]

This morning I checked on the pears and that is what I do every morning. Well….this morning I came upon a Eurasian Jay bird party and they were eating our pears… Of course they denied that they ate them and flew away like they did nothing. They saw nothing, heard nothing and are innocent. Yet, […]

We seem to be sliding toward a dystopian style of future: Dystopia – /dɪsˈtəʊpɪə/ – noun: dystopia; plural noun: dystopias – an imagined state or society in which there is great suffering or injustice, typically one that is totalitarian or post-apocalyptic… Except is it really an “imagined state or society” anymore? Children in masks, children […]

Fall (Autumn) is coming and in Russia it comes fast… (TRV) When the weather changes and beats me up as it swings back and forth. Autumn/Fall is here… WtR

Again we run… Around and around we go. Like chickens with our heads cut off… Singing “Leaving On A Jet Plane, Don’t Know If I’ll Be Back Again”… Shred that paperwork, no time to pack those bags, keep your head down and run like hell….for the ones we illegally attacked (twenty years ago), want our […]
