Old Games… of my past anyhow

Many years ago, in the time when a 386 machine was new and there was no graphic cards for the home user. PCs were there for working on not particularly games…

There was a few games that were fun that I used to enjoy playing… It was generally Shareware, Freeware or Public Domain
- as you got them for free as well as a few bought ones.

Favorites were: Worms, PGA Golf and Scorched Earth (which i’m told came from the amiga era) – I often wonder what would happen if I was to play them on PCs of nowadays. These were early 90′s games – great fun – often simple but fun.

I’ve came to find the new updated version of scorched earth that needs a bit more power of a PC than the olden days but it just as much fun if a little more difficult… Its all in 3D like so many games are now.

Fun Times :)

Am I only one half by being single?

This is what I thought while alone. I’ve felt alone for a long time although I have so many friends to support me i’ve not had another person to share with for a long time.

Over the past week I’ve been at spring harvest over the easter break time and picked up a few things that made sense.. One was about being only part of a person.

I need to be a full person before looking for “the other half” – we should both be full and able to exist easily without one-another: I’m not saying I want to be alone, just that I want us both to always be happy. Missing people is expected – I don’t want to be in the situation where I feel I can not go on by being alone or without someone.

A little story someone told was about a chair… Strange as it sounds it made sense.

You get a chair, and chop it in half. Half is you and half is a partner. Your love, passion etc are the sticky tape between you and add a bit of pressure and you’ll get through it – add a lot and you both break apart.

Then imagine a full chair – you are both full people – ready in life for anything – you come together and work closely together – one on the other making a very strong surface. I’m sure there will be things that get in the way and do put pressure on you but you are much stronger as you are full people.

So before I start looking for another, I am seeing how to be full again – its been a while but I see it now as a posability again.

1471 1741

I did a strange thing earlier – I typed the wrong number in to find who I just missed the call from.

I dialled 1741 instead of 1471 – I didn’t know you could find your own telephone number out – it was quite odd.

House Cleaning Time

In general I try to keep my home tidy and clean and once a week I try to blitz the place and get everything nice and tidy to a state I’d call normal and in general I’ve kept to it.

Spring Cleaning time… Its taken a few days to do it properly. All windows cleaned, Curtains washed, all skirting boards washed down, floors, cuboards cleaned out, oven cleaned and even washing the hoover/filters etc.

Its not something I mind doing, althou my organisation is awful at times it does feel good when its all sorted.

How often do people usually clean/clear things.. Is it different because I don’t have a family living with me?

I don’t know – I was always brought up with keeping things tidy and clean.. I’ve learned from talking
with others not everyone got this type of guidance but I am glad I was as its a nice place to live in :)
