As a Netflix addict I can state that my fascination with the various British accents help me focus on more positive things and forget somewhat my various pains both mental and physical. What type of accent do you have, David?

It is spring and the insects and seeds are twitterpating in my compost heap. (This is a Bambi reference if you want to check it out on youtube.) Last year we got cantaloups. This year, the sky is the limit.

tied...

I have what some people in England would describe the accent as a Hienze 57 variety


I was born in BIrmingham left when I was 7
Moved to Tamworth in Staffordshire

Left home at 16 joined the Royal Navy in PLmouth Devon

1983 Portsmouth HAmpshire

1984 Worthing SUssex


1989 to present date Oldham Lancashire ( or Greater Manchester)

Where I live now they class me a Southerner, if I go to my home in Birmingham they think I am a Northerner..


UK accents are an oddity.

Tied. .....what’s your accent..?

David

I was born in California but lived in Arizona, Texas, Illinois, and Arkansas. In California they think I have a southern accent and in Texas they call me a Yankee. I tend to switch accents according to who I am talking with. I love to try to do a Scottish accent but I think I fall short. When I was in Soviet Georgia they thought I spoke Russian with a Polish accent. I later learned to speak Russian with a Leningrad accent, so I sound a bit like Victor Tsoi.

That brought a smile to my face

Your ascents are like mine a multitude of mixtures


Russian ...wow a hard language to learn...big up you Tied for trying and pulling it off..

доброй ночи (Good night..in Russian)

Take care of you

Hope everyone is doing well. I am learning the ins and outs of Trigeminal Neuralgia. Currently taking a sabbatical from it. Recently went to a memorial service and came away inspired. I am sad she is gone but a better person for having had her in my life. This spurred some dreams that became waking goals. My friend saw the skills, talents, and dreams in people and then said "Now go do that!" I am a little too amped up on that and now can't sleep (in a good way). What do I want to do? Organize a grapefruit harvest for a food bank, apprentice on a farm that uses horse energy, plant endangered local species (and continue doing the other things that feed my soul). I task you all with discerning what's good in everybody and inspiring those souls to do more of that. I leave you with a song we sang at the memorial - Finlandia.

Hello all it’s been a while, I hope you are all well.

The last twenty months have been life altering to say the least.

June 2018 my mum died, after breaking her hip. Her dementia just wouldn’t allow her body to heal. I’m glad she no longer suffers.

In October 2018 I was diagnosed with having an Abdominal Aortic Anuryseum. It was 4.2cm when found, and grew to 4.7cm in the first 3 months..
I was put on medication to slow the growth rate and in September 2019 it was 4.8cm

Nothing can be done until it gets to 5.2cm then options are a stent or graft.....dependent on health.


Then in July this year 2019. I noticed an inverted nipple, saw my dr and after tests was told I had Breast Cancer.
In the UK 444 men a year get this, so I was shocked to say the least?

I’ve since had a mastectomy, and a full lymph clearance in right arm.

I start chemotherapy on Tuesday 19th of November for 18 weeks treatmeant, then radiotherapy and hormone therapy to follow after.

Time is a strange thing and I look back on my life and concern myself that my worrying and anxiety have truly caught up with me now and the physical ailments are side effects of my mental health condition.

I have learnt the hard way....don’t worry about anything not in your control, appreciate everything, show gratitude as it defeats sadness and believe in your heart
Love will overcome everything..

Take care of You

David
