Philately: Postage Stamp Collecting ( #AtoZChallenge )

 

     Philately or postage stamp collecting used to be a very popular hobby when I was growing up.  I don't know that very many kids today collect stamps.  It's probably pretty boring to most modern kids. For me it was a great hobby. I would spend hours with my collection learning so much about the world and history.  But we didn't have so many other distractions in my youth.  It was a simpler time where patience was just what you had to have sometimes.  Peaceful, it was when I think back, but maybe not really.  Now it is all just past.

Ozempic and Other Such Things ( #AtoZChallenge )

 

     Ozempic and other such things I have considered in recent years.  I've been what is considered overweight for a number of years, but in the past couple years I've been losing pounds.  I've yet to resort to any weight loss drugs.  I'm hesitant to do so.  I have however been eating far less than I used to and consequently have been losing some weight. Good news I think.  Hopefully I won't have to resort to any drugs to lose weight. Eating less and doing more exercise is the way I prefer.  I'll walk up and down my stairs more.  That sounds like a good approach.  And less eating.  

Nice Things ( #AtoZChallenge )

 

        Nice things are nice to have.  I have a lot of nice things, but that is my subjective opinion.  My wife doesn't think a lot of my things are all that nice.  I suppose a lot of folks would not be particularly impressed with my possessions, but I like them just fine.  I've got pretty simple tastes and don't really want of all that much.  My needs are met for the most part and I'm pretty content in my life.  I guess that's a nice thing as well.
