Sleepiness

    I have been sleepy lately.  I get off work, and I come home, and instead of playing a computer game.  I go right to bed.  I am not sure why that is.  I am taking medicine.  I think that might have an effect.  But it is not like I am losing energy.  It is just- I get tired after work.  Even though I enjoy my job as a Courtesy clerk, when I get home I am tired.  It is even hard to write in my blog.  I drink a pot of coffee to stay awake sometimes.  I sleep as soon as I get off work sometimes.  The tiredness does not go a way so, I try to find ways to stay busy.  Even though I am tired.  The sleepiness causes me to not want to do anything, so sometimes I have to force myself.  Even smoking a cigarette takes a lot of energy for me.  My sleepiness makes it hard to read sometimes.  I enjoy reading, and so I try my best to keep reading.  I just keep thinking of the passage of time.  After my wreck I began to consider about my life, as I felt I almost died in the car wreck.  

     Part of the sleepiness is being misunderstood.  I am on a quest to help someone.  People misunderstand what I am trying to do.  I put my energy into something, and I devote my energy to it.  That's the way it is for me, I just do it, not on purpose either.  Even right now, while I am writing, I just want to go to sleep.  The book I am reading, The Flying Tigers, is going extremely well.  I noticed that the first part of somewhat of a minibiography of Colonel Claire Chennault.  He grew up in Louisiana and attended Louisiana State. Colonel Chenault did a lot of hunting and fishing as a boy in eastern Louisiana.  He went from hunting and fishing in the South Eastern United States, to being the leader of the Chinese Air Force during World War II.  I think Colonel Chennault, ends up leading the Flying Tigers.  A group of American pilots who flew for China against Japan.  He actually modified his Hawk 75.  Here is what the Hawk 75, or P-36 looked like:

Claire and Gibbon used the Hawk-75 to shoot down some of the bombers coming in.  It was Gibbon, who grew up in Seattle, who flew the P-36 mostly, in the book.  It was actually a trainer, but it had machine guns.  That is why Claire and Gibbon modified it and flew the Hawk 75 into harms way.  Thank you USAF Museum of Dayton OH for the image.

Ukraine Invasion Continues

 Earlier this week Russia began invading the Ukraine.  Now, that invasion continues.  This video  shows footage of supposedly Russian forces firing, near Kharkov. The city is located in Eastern Ukraine.  I heard another say that Russian forces are nearing Kiev.  In the article,  The explosions were seen near Kharkiv, Ukraine, a city with a population of roughly 1.4 million nested near the eastern border and approximately 300 miles from the capital city of Kyiv, Ukraine This just shows how quickly the Russians moved.  Are we going to respond?  I don't think we can.  Ukraine is not a NATO nation.  The Russian President warned everyone about interfering, and said  attempt to intervene would lead to "consequences they have never seen." Putin did not specify what his threat meant.  But I expect most people understand, that this could be nuclear.  Supposedly, Russia and China have entered into a new partnership.  Just ...

Filling Out the FAFSA

 Along with re-applying to UTA I also filled out my FAFSA for 2021 and 2022.  I always forget to fil out my FAFSA.  But this year I did it because I am re-applying for school.  I intend to use the GI bill rather than student loans.  But it is on the to do list.  You can fill out the FAFSA yourself at  https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa .  I need to order transcripts according to my checklist.  But UTA already has my transcripts.  Still, I guess I will find out whether I need to do so in the next day or two.  It is a weekend that I submitted my application.  So, I need to allow a couple of days.  It will be good to be back in school.  After working at Albertsons maybe I can tough it out a little better now.  I have a bit of a work ethic now.  I cannot wait to start.  Not sure if I will start this fall, or next spring but I am determined to finish my studies.   Scott is going to come b...

Rhetorical Writing Triangle

  Rhetorical Writing Triangle I wanted to run an advertising campaign.  To test out the features of pinterest business mode .  I chose this Rhetorical Writing Triangle to advertise.  The campaign has generated 61 clicks.  It is clear, I do not know what I am doing.  But I am interested in learning so I could help out and maybe make some money.  It is clear, many people want to learn about Rhetorical Writing.  Yet, do they even teach it in school?  I have no idea.  I was home schooled.  But I did attend Christian Liberty Academy.  I remember some of there Grammar involved Essay writing.  Book reports too.
