No money, no food *If you had no money to feed your children, how would you go about getting food?* The question you read above is a scenario given by https://writingexercises.co.uk/scenario-generator.php. This site is good for prompts or characters to write about. If you have nothing to write about you can give it a try. It's an interesting question and I wonder how many of you readers deal with this. If it comes to me as an adult I can do with just a bit of food and it can…
Superpower Which power is it you like to have? If it comes to power, some superpower it's no different from making a wish or three wishes like in those fairy tales. Always be careful with what you wish unless you don't care a wurst is stuck at your nose. If you believe stupid wishes are made by women only you are wrong. Wishing everything you touch turns into gold isn't smart either and this wish was made by a king or a guy who pretended to be one or can be the storyteller…
Clogged Toilet trouble How to unclog a toilet? I know some tricks and I'm trying them one by one. No idea how far I get but if I can't solve the issue we (read: I) have a problem. No plumber will do the job, come over here so if all the tricks won't work I might have to remove the toilet seat and... One thing is for sure I do not like surprises and today seems to be filled with unexpected events. I tried something (didn't work), I read some tips on the internet (Belgium…
Homemade milk products I have a stressful week behind me and it looks as if it isn't over yet. Sunday it was a clogged toilet which I could unclog yesterday and yesterday one of the wolves had a piece of bone stuck between the teeth at the right side. If you ever pulled a bone out of the mouth of a jumping wolf (partly panicking) you know what it looks like (the opening that mouth, keeping it open and using pincers to pull it out (while standing on a leash to control jumping…
Climate control I can't say it keeps me busy. To me, the climate is just a word. The climate turns out not to be the same as the change of weather which sounds a bit odd to me. If it comes to the weather I can't say I noticed any difference during my life. Warn Summers, cold Summers, Rainy Summers... I notice it is a certain sequence and that process I call the cycle of life. What counts for me (birth and death) counts for flora and fauna and the earth as well. Everything…
Only 3% No action will be without a reaction. Can be this reaction won't be today, in the next ten or twenty years but that reaction will come because people don't forget what they know, experienced about injustice, a war they pass to the next generations. No man is an island? Man is an island only not if it comes to remembering injustice, the fight against it, the fight for his freedom and dictatorship. These battles no one can win if he stays on his island. You have to let…
Crisis The mess we deal with today is the result of one thing: globalism. If everyone's food, clothes, job, money depends on only a few countries (read: people) it's clear not much is needed to create chaos, poverty and starvation. That better world will not be realised overnight and be built on the corpses of many. At this moment 1200 people more die a month where I live. Twelfhunderd more and they do not die because of that virus many feared and is used to create more…
The trick called aid Generally speaking, I do not trust aid funds. Too many of these big funds filled mainly their own pockets. They even used the money for sex parties and exclusive travels and bonuses. Next to that, I don't see any point in giving because the government already does. Billions are paid to 'help the poor' those in need but in reality, the opposite is done. Those billions I pay for because I pay taxes a lot of taxes. So if I give I give to people I like to…
Stay informed If granny walks she looks as if she's in pain. She walks with a bent back and it is as if she's always in a hurry. Granny rarely talks with people outside on the street. Perhaps she know no one or people don't like her? She doesn't like to gossip like her friend. Granny minds her own business and says although, my mother beats me she doesn't hate her because my mother did never anything to her. My uncle says it's not true. Because of my mother, my uncle has to…
A good salesman *Is it possible to get rich if you are a honest person?* Lately I think a lot about my grandfather or perhaps I should say grandparents since as a couple these two made it and with making it I mean they became millionaires. Hardly no one becomes rich over night so my grandparents worked for it. They survived the second world war and as I understood it wasn't too hard. With hard I mean they only once or twice saw a German pass by (or a soldier at all) and that…
Short memory Looking back it feels as if it never happened. It's true what the richest people, the globalists just like the governments say: *the people have a short memory they even have a very short one and they do not search for the truth or reason.* I admit I am partly one of these people although I am interested in history and the human mind and understand how easy it is to manipulate people if you spread fear and divide so they do your dirty work for you. While I…
Everything comes with benefits Have you ever wondered why we go bald, on our heads that is, but not on our bodies? Even the caveman covered his body in colder regions and a cave is cold but how about the head. A cold on your brain is no fun. If you have ever visited a cave, you know all about it. Even if it is 30-40 degrees Celsius outside, you better bring a thick jumper when you visit a big cave. There are not many in the Netherlands, so you have to go to the south of the…
Never a break It is not that I never wanted to be a mother. As a child, I said that I would have many children once I grew up. As a child, I didn't think about how difficult it could be to get pregnant, how hard a pregnancy is. I didn't think about being dumped by the father of the unborn because he thought he was too young to be a father. I didn't think about what it would be like to suffer hours of pain, to rip out or to be left with a dislocated pelvis. Pelvic…
Travel angst? *I still don't know how I will survive with children if there really is nothing left to buy.* *Whether it will come to that is the question. I suspect that it will be like it was a long time ago. Today you have to queue up because only sugar is sold and with a bit of luck a piece of chicken, the day after tomorrow there might be flour or milk.* Last Sunday, my child and I drove around to recharge the car's battery. In the countryside, there should be enough…
Keep in touch *They love to keep you busy* **Can you write two essays within one hour by hand**? *You have four options and can pick out two which you need to write about. If you ask me it's difficult especially if you have to write about a subject you never heard of before or have no opinion.* One of the tasks is to write about wind turbines. Wind turbines that will be placed on the hill of a small village. How happy would it make you? Are you against it or not? Any idea…
Clothes What do I know about clothes? Nothing, almost nothing. It's not that I'm still in prehistoric times when it comes to my clothes, but I've never really been interested in fashion. I don't belong to the fashion dolls and I don't like shopping. Shopping is not my thing. Shopping makes me tired and I can't go fast enough. I would love to buy everything online, but unfortunately that's not possible. In any case, what I would never buy online is clothes and shoes. I have…
Perfect harmony *Do angels exist? If so, I find them scary, just like clowns.* I don't want a genderless thing dangling in my Christmas tree or in the nativity scene. I used to have a nativity scene that I picked up from the rubbish heap in the street. It was a dilapidated thing without Jesus, Mary or anything else. I bought these figurines elsewhere. I found that stable quite appropriate. If there is no room in the inn but there is only in the stable, this must not have…
Wonky **No story, no 'wonky donkey' for me.** *I never heard of this story nor do my children. Wonky donkeys are not in our vocabulary the only one who was wonky and at times still is, is me. Not because I was or am drunk but because of many other reasons. Reasons I'm not going to repeat here but have to do with and are the result of my childhood and the years after.* Still, wonky is better than not being able to walk at all since it's part of being independent. If it comes…
Computers & Nostradamus *I waste a lot of time searching the internet for a computer (laptop) for my youngest.* I myself haven't been using one for years. The youngest child received one as a present from school for being the best student. Of course, this laptop, an HP, was broken. I bought a different battery and we tried every trick mentioned on the internet we could think of but if it starts at all it can only be with the adapter. It feels bitter to receive a present like…
A new world **Do you already know how you and your family are going to survive in a world without electricity or a limited amount of electricity for the people?** It seems to be coming and we can protest en masse but most likely it won't matter. Those few rich people have already decided what the new world will look like, for whom there is room and for whom there is not. For decades, they have been training people who, in their spirit, want to push the people in the right…
Circle - no horror Imagine you wake up and you have no memory of what happened. This scenario seems to be popular. At least it is in the movies and series I'm watching lately just like being doomed, the dead awakening, a new normal, viruses and the fight against the end of the world and 'games' are frequently involved. There you are. You wake up and have no idea where you are. You are standing next to other sleepers in a strange environment and cannot move a step. You are…
