Why Blog?


 My family stretches from Washington to Florida and to the far North of Canada. The miles keep us from seeing each other.

We originally sent letters by horseback cross country on something called the "Pony Express"... Then they got mail cars and made things a little faster, and now...

We use computers to get things done. {I'm not quite that old}

Life is easier with things like writing assignments and other work related tasks or as if reading a book to learn something new, or how to do something. We don't do FB, Twitter or such, most of us are too busy out doing things, and living life.  

Never did get into soap opera's so it's no wonder social media is not so interesting either. 

Too many people addicted to video games and social media, it's the collapse of society as we knew it. Now our countries headed for communism and folks are too busy staring at a screen watching the neighbor or someone acting stupid, to notice.

Sitting in front of a computer is like sitting in front of a TV all day, and numbs/dumbs your brains and allows your body to accumulate fat. 


HOWEVER


It's full of information and a great source for shopping!

It's nice to have a place to stop in and see how each others are doing, without having to schedule appointments or make time for travels.

Commitments keep you busy! and with this whole 'virus' thing and the great over-reaction going on. The internet has kept us in touch with each other, so for us/me Blogging is the answer for now.

There are occasions where someone has wanted to share a post, so it's necessary to keep the blog publicly open. We don't advertise our blogs, so if your here, you found me. Links to awesome sites, Recipes, family pictures, my opinion, and a little bit of everything can be found here. 

Welcome to the Barn.

I've found several new friends that have stopped in @ the Bright side of the Barn, and I enjoy your blogs as well, Visiting them often. 

Social media is where trolls and stalkers like to follow you/me, as it has been confirmed multiple times by all of the kids.. I have trolls ... 

My ex's wife hangs out on my sites. She been known to create phony ID's and harass my friends and family. So best I'm not on the sites to find in the first place, She's probably here with us now too.

For the last many years, this girl has been obsessed with me and extremely jealous of the relationship my kids and I have. She managed to manipulate my ex several years ago to where it ended the 'good times' my kids were finally starting to have with their dad. She has been the wedge in his relationship with his kids and grand kids ever since. 

Keeping the HATE alive all the way to the great grand children. You got to love immature people right?

So, now you know WHY I BLOG. Tell me, why do you follow or read my blog? I honestly don't mind, I'm as an open book in life, but as the cats, I'm curious. Why are you interested in lil ole me? 

There is no commenting on the individual blogs, you will find an open comment form to the side. Due to the 'trolls' it is necessary I monitor all comments coming into the site. I hope you can understand. 

Feel free to explore, I hope you enjoy your visit and come on by anytime.

Your always welcome @ the Bright side of the Barn.


** Folks please remember and consider, when I use the words "you/your", I am probably not talking about YOU, unless you are one who feels a pang of guilt on the subject matter at hand. Our own conscience will tell us, if we are one of the "you's" in the topic of the day..... That's not ME calling YOU out. It's your own soul ...


Blessed by God
Life's good @ the Bright side of the Barn
Thanks for stopping by
Until next time, Stay safe and Happy Trails.

New Beginnings

 


While most folks are on FB or Twitter, spatting out comments to each other, I'm over here, exploring blogs and webpages that people have made to share. I love the photography sites! I found this one @ Tao Zero. Beautiful work! You should check it out.

I felt this picture most reflected our journeys today. America is facing changes in great ways. Thus affecting the world in many ways. So here we all stand, facing a road to an 'unknown' horizon. 

Let's just remember we are 
'all in this together', 
and as a good Marine, if we 
"Never leave a fallen man behind";
 The future could be bright for all of us. 

Sometimes distracting yourself from the everyday stress going on in life, is the best 'break' you can give yourself. With the internet its so easy to find something new to see, learn, read, or do. We waste so much of such a good resource, gossiping on social media. 

Thoughts to ponder as we enter this new world. It's a new year and spring is on the horizon, ya I know we're in the middle of winter.... I live in Western Washington... Winter is short and spring comes early!

The Bright side of the Barn took on a new look as well, enjoy! I hope you all have an amazing day.

Blessed  by God
Life's good @ the Bright side of the Barn
