****trail of breadcrumbs****<<<
Not a good choice /idea.
Here my ants would have carried them to feed the clan and your trail would be lost.
You are to “blaze a trail”, with piles of rocks, or snapped branches and no I shouldn’t tell about how I led the whole gang down the wrong path, on top of the mountain.....
They blamed me, as I was in front, looking for signs of ore and and not aware that I had missed the connector trail....
About 3 miles of trail, why all those wise ones did not yell that I was past the return path, I never knew.....
It was on the top of a desert mountain, no trees, just a donkey path.
Smiling at you and attempting to tease you.
” Smiling at you and attempting to tease you. “
Good morning, Granny...
As we get to know each other, you’ll find out that I have a pretty decent sense of humor, and I enjoy being teased - and teasing.... :~)
As for our (delightful, for me) conversation of yesterday — I think I need to add a small disclaimer....
When I share my thinking and planning, I’ doing just that - sharing. I’m not advocating any particular course of action for anyone else...
Everybody has his/her own unique set of circumstances that needs to be addressed, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution....
If I am advocating anything, it’s the principle that each one of us needs to look at our particular situation honestly and realisically, including what might happen should certain variables change — and then do what we can to tilt the odds in our favor, within our individual constraints - physical, monetary, family obligations, and the like...
And the most important principle of all is to *BE FLEXIBLE* in our planning — never assume that events will play out exactly as we envision them... And be emotionally prepared to abandon preconceived notions and impovise at any time.
Again, Granny — what I shared yesterday was my planning, and, to me, more importantly, the thinking and philosophy behind my planning, given my particular circumstances at this time, and given the scenario you laid out (sudden, surprise, devastating terrorist attack - but also applies, somewhat, to ‘natural disaster’ scenarios)..... Keeping in mind, of course, that I don’t consider anything ‘set in stone’, and my thinking evolves daily as events unfold...
If my blather strikes a chord and gets someone else thinking about “what-ifs”, each in his/her own way, then that’s just icing on the cake — otherwise, I’m just pleasantly passing the time with some new FRiends....
