Well different subjects at the bottom of my blog, that is
for sure.
Hub in my hometown today two hours from my now home. But
before that, he and the Little Fella had what we call Aftercare today. This is
where our dogs are tested and how our partnership is doing, between in Hubs
case him, and his dog. Thank goodness he passed. As did the dog. Haha.
We weren’t worried as they must be doing something right, as
they are working so well. He’s a lovely dog, so loyal and loving as well as a
great worker.
We are positive they know when they are being tested. It’s
like taking your driving test. But at least our lovely lady who comes out is a
sweetheart and so very real. I like her a lot and wish she was ten years
younger and not close to retirement as I personally really don’t like aftercare
but knowing that lady is coming out makes me feel at ease. She’s so lovely and
knows her stuff as well as being straight, what you see is what you get and I respect
her.
In my fridge I have enough carrots to provide enough food
for Bugs Bunny and his family and enough to help with vision across England. So,
it’s carrot and coriander soup for tonight’s menu.
I have bought vegan cream to put in it, goodness knows what
that will be like, I may just make a small amount.
Going out with two ladies later so looking forward to that. And
then it’s our pub quiz.
Received two really odd phone calls today. First one I missed
and I’m waiting for an important call so without thinking, I just called it
back an elderly lady answered. She spoke Russian. Haha. So, I asked her had she
called me by mistake, in Russian obviously.
afterwards I checked out her
number. It said she was calling from the Maldives
Sadly because of global warming, that part of the world is
sinking fast.
Just thought I would throw that in…
And two hours later, another really odd number different to
the other but I blocked the other because the lady called me back and I was
afraid she was running up a huge bill. So, was the other number from the same
place? This time it didn’t say but it wasn’t
a number I ever get in the UK.
And when the other number called, it only rang once. Hmm.
I have a friend in India, is he on holiday there and using
his family’s phone? Are his family calling my number for him? But if so, why
doesn’t he speak? Apart from my neighbours, that is the only connection I have
with India.
My Darling Son came home from work and told me it sounds as
if I have been conned. Why? The old trick I used to tell people about and may
have fell for it myself today. When you see on your phone a missed call or you
phone someone back, you get charged a fortune. And with it being a Russian
speaking person but calling from the Maldives?
I think I’m going to have to call my phone provider.
Thank you for your comments about the blog I wrote about
love. It’s so interesting to hear all about your experiences of falling in love
and simply love for others. How different everyone’s opinion was. Karen, I loved
your answer and Terry, I didn’t expect that from you. But V, I did. B, interesting
and for all the rest of you, it’s so lovely to hear your stories.
So, this is for C. remember this, broken crayons still
colour. And please don’t take everything so serious because most times you are
right, people are awful, but sometimes, we come across angels’ good genuine
people, it just doesn’t happen enough where we meet kind people who are prepared
to give to you what you give to them. And sometimes we can get disillusioned by
how others treat us. We have to learn to walk away from them and hope they can
do the same. If people hurt you, you don’t need that in your life. it’s
normally because they are not happy in their own lives. So, they feel they have
to treat you badly too. Well walk and hope they won’t follow. On your journey,
you will meet people you really can trust. To C, again, I will try to listen to
your music and give you my review. Smile, you did ask for advice. Here it comes
the Fifi style.
Remember. A ship is always safe a shore, but that is not
what it’s built for.
If you are going through hell, keep going because if you
stand still, you will stay in hell. You have to come to the end eventually. And
you don’t need to see a complete set of ladders, just take the first step in
life.
This blog may seem quite cryptic, I’m trying to answer some
media messages and comments and the people I’m writing to connect with, will
know what I mean, and I hope that at least one of the messages in my blog will
get to those who need it.
That was all written yesterday. So, today. More news on my
phone calls. I called my provider and they say yes, I have been tricked. They kindly
gave me my money back but told me that they can’t do anything abut it. Today I received
another three calls. I just keep blocking them but make sure I don’t call them
back I don’t even want to answer their calls.
I have been out this morning but now in for the day. Hub
working from home so it was good to get out. I had my meeting and it was lovely
went well and had a morning of chatting and catching up with girlfriends.
My Son has just come
home from work. I expect he will be catching up on sleep. He’s had one late
night and two early mornings. He was up at silly hour this morning making Hub
look like he was sleeping in. and Hub is up every morning really really early.
I was asked today if I wanted to do a ghost walk. Haha. Em,
not sure. My friends are going, but I don’t know yet. Let’s see. I guess the stories will be
interesting as obviously someone walks around with you and you get the history
and stories behind the ghosts and where they frequent. But it’s very touristy,
so not real.
I’m exhausted this week. Mentally. Tomorrow we have some people
coming and the day after I’m hoping to get out just for a couple of hours. Then
the week starts again where I have a person coming on Monday afternoon but
apart from that nothing all week so I can catch up with you all.
I have some really deep writing to do inside of my head. How
it finds itself to paper is another matter.
Right now, I have my dogs by my feet for some reason, this
week they have both been really clingy. Pushing themselves on me. Following me
like shadows. I think they are detecting something dogs are so clever.
OK, todays subjects. I had to look into this headline when I
read about it. (birth canals are different all the world over)
Really? Surely ladies are all the same?
The shape of a mother’s birth canal has to be wide enough to
allow a baby through but narrow enough to let the lady walk properly.
That was what was always believed. But a new study the
researchers measured the pelvis’s of 348 skeletons from all over the world and
the pelvis’s were not carbon copies of each other.
Some women from Asia and parts of Africa, were narrow from
side to side and deep from back to front. Native American women had wider
canals. European ladies had the most oval shaped canals. Colder climates favour
wider bodies, which which are better at holding in heat so that could have an
impact on canal shapes. There are different ways ladies go through labour as
well when the baby turns etc. so this could design our insides.
I guess it’s all the same result. Which brings me onto my
next blog. I am not sure my gentlemen readers will want to read what I will try
to write about tomorrow, though it’s inspired totally by a man. And what a
story.
And finally, a question was asked.
(Have you ever had sex with someone of the same sex?)
Researchers identified those who said yes and those who
answered that question no. 450,939 who said their sexual relationships had been
exclusively heterosexual and 26,890 who reported at at least one homosexual
experience.
At the annual American society of human genetics, it was written
that the researchers were cautious, about exploring sexual behaviour that is
still illegal in many countries, and that they tried to frame their questions carefully.
The researchers performed a genome-wide association study in which they looked
for specific variations in DNA that were more common in people reported at
least one same-sex sexual experience. They identified four such variants on
chromosomes. Two variants were specific to men who reported same sex relationships.
One chromosome has been reported to have a pattern to cause baldness. Another chromosome
is rich in olfactory receptors. This plays
a large role in sexual attraction. A large stretch on the X chromosome linked
to inherited homosexuality.
The same chromosome that identifies homosexuality, showed
signs of depression too, but rightly so, the scientists said that could be
linked with their lifestyle and how the general public except or not except
them. So, I doubt that connection between depression and homosexuality, can be
linked.
Well the findings reinforce the idea that human sexual behaviour
is complex and can’t be pinned on any simple constellation of DNA. In other
words, there is no gay gene. I’m just not too sure where this study will take
us to? Why need such a study unless future scientists are thinking about deleting
certain chromosomes? I mean, what could be the other reason for such a study? But
I think they have been looking into this since 1993.
And now it’s the weekend, I hope you have a great one. I’m
going to have a lovely evening with the Hubster and our dogs. We may be blessed
with Boy Wonder, who knows, I think he may be going to Shams house though. Right
now, he’s still in bed. So, he won’t sleep tonight and he has to work early
tomorrow again. The faster he can get a job where he is working 9 till 5, the
better, though not sure any more if such jobs exist.
Look after yourselves but please watch out for those who mayneed
you. Remember no one really knows what goes on behind closed doors. You could
be that person who is able to open that door for someone. I believe in Karma.
