I Like To Blog

It really is a lot of fun to write these Blogs, not just for myself, but to create some stories for other people to read. Hopefully, whether they agree with what I say or not, I am very pleased that so many people come and read my comments.

I have to admit that it still surprises me about how long it takes for me to complete one of these websites and then post it. As I am sure that you know, I do not create as many articles as I used to do but I still write quite a number of them. It takes me several hours generally to complete these postings with all of the different articles that I have in them. Of course, I'm not even talking about the time it takes to do the research necessary before I even start to write a story.

Naturally, I do this because of my background. I have written stories on the Internet for a good many years. It's a nice task being able to continue doing it. However, there is also the obvious reason why I'm doing it. I want to keep my mind operating as best as it can given my age and the illness I lived through. I really do want to keep my "brain" working. I cannot have it "relaxed" so that I lose some of my mental abilities. 

As I believe I mentioned before, I try to write about a lot of topics these days. I just don't write about the relatively few subjects as I did in my previous postings. But then again, I don't have the same responsibility that I had before. This Blogsite is a personal one for me that allows me to post what I think is important around the time that I do so. Moreover, it allows me to write about less important subjects but nevertheless subjects that are of interest to me.

I often wonder if you, dear reader, have ever wanted to do something similar to what I am doing now. If so, it's easy to do it. Just go and search out for different places where one can go to start writing articles that go online to let your friends read what your position is. The good part about it as well is that it does not have to cost you, dear reader, any money to do so. Who knows, if you are as good as you can be and you can attract lots of readers, there are all kinds of opportunities that you can gain. Including financial ones!

So while I want to do what it takes to continue to have you come to my website to look at what I have just written, perhaps I can ask you to let me know where you are posting your thoughts so that I may read them as well.

Now let me show you what I do that takes up the space in the rest of the typical posting that I invite you to read.

HOSPITAL EMERGENCIES

Although this is not what I am writing about in this article, just remember that it really won't be necessary to have something similar here when we only have one hospital in our region. It won't matter at all how long it takes you to see a doctor in an emergency in the future because there will only be one hospital in this region. You will have to wait as long as it takes whether you like it or not!

Oh I know that there is supposed to be an Urgent Care Centre/Main Satellite Facility at the former Grace Hospital Site but it is limited in scope: “An alternate site for patients with less serious issues, who do not require all the resources available in an emergency department.”

Just so you know as well, this Site: “is not meant for patients with life-threatening issues. [It] will not accept patients by ambulance.”

Today, just go to this website https://www.wrh.on.ca to find out which hospital has a better time to wait for examination before you go. You will find out about how long you will have to wait so that you can make a decision as to which hospital you think you should attend depending on your condition. It may be that both hospitals are equal in treating what is wrong with you. In such a situation, it can be better for you to go to the place where it takes less time for a doctor to see you and start treating you. After all, why go to the place that has a lot more patients at that particular time. Here is what I mean:

FOREST FIRES

If you want to read something about forest fires, may I suggest you take a look at this New York Times article published on August 25, 2018: "Canada Letter, When Extreme Fires Become Routine By Ian Austen” 

Here is just one part I read that I think you will find very interesting and should convince you to read the rest of what was published:

“How exceptional have the recent fire seasons been in the West?

What we’re seeing now is something that we haven’t seen in the last 100 years. Fire is behaving in ways that are unpredictable and pretty frightening. There are a lot of reasons for it. We live in a part of the continent from California right up to Alaska that has really experienced most of what climate change offers: a lot of dry, hot weather, which produces very dry forests, and the hotter it gets, the more lightning you get.” 

RESIDENCE OF THE FUTURE

Nevermind everything that you are reading about the new homes which are going to be built in our area. Oh sure, they are going to have all kinds of features that seem so amazing these days. I can just imagine how quickly so many people are going to try and see the latest new types of homes in an "open house."

Pshaw... What a waste of time that is!

One ought not to consider buying one of these homes when there are better homes to buy. However, the number of these particular residences may not be that huge so one has to prepare in advance for when they come on the market. Moreover, one must save a lot of money and get a lot of it as well in order to pay for these new units. They are not going to be cheap at all to purchase.

Here is the story about that new residence:

“This 15-story underground doomsday shelter for the 1% has luxury homes, guns, and armored trucks”

Given what may happen in our world today, this might be the perfect protection home to buy as a second home if there are any concerns that arise in your mind:

“Fortified shelters, built to withstand catastrophic events from viral epidemic to nuclear war, seem to be experiencing a wave of interest in general.”

Get out there now and consider whether you should put a deposit down if you want to buy one and can afford to do so!
