ADHD

 What is your views on ADHD..  Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. That was a question I was asked.

First off let me tell you this.  I don’t believe there is any reason what’s so ever, for prescribing drugs for children with their so called ADHD drugs.  If a child has a problem of not communicating with the teacher or whom ever or causing a bit of a problem in class, usually it is because they are bored. If the teacher can’t control the children then they should be sent home and their parents notified of what is happening and let the parents fix the problem. Drugs should not be not be brought into the picture what’s so ever.  Also our Powers That Be should be taking steps to make the classes interesting enough to keep the children wanting to go to school.  You are always going to have a bully or some one that causes a bit of trouble.  They are kids, they crave attention and to get attention will go to any lengths. We as adults should see this.   A lot of children comes from broken homes, not an easy way of life on a child’s view of things.  I know, I came from a broken home.  Had all kinds of different folks looking after me, until one couple took the time to help me get my mind back on the straight and narrow.  I was probably one of those young ones that would be a candidate for these so called prescription drugs today.  Thing was I made out OK in life, without them.  Also… there is no scientific proof of what these drugs will do to the young ones mind later on down the road.  Seems to me that the Powers That Be today are trying to fix everything with drugs these days.  The more zombie us humans becomes the better it is for those that want control.  Altering a child’s mind with drugs is not the answer.  My Opinion Only

Dragonflies Have Arrived

Well update to the Blog here.  Dragonflies have made their appearance a few minutes ago.  9:30 AM to be exact, at least that’s when they dropped by our home for a visit. They have landed you might say, as I just finished my cup of Dandelion Tea on the back deck and one landed on my arm while I was soaking up some sunshine.  Sat there for a few minutes looked at me and said…. “I am back my friend, I will now get to tending to them Blackflies and and Mosquitoes.  Great to see their arrival, as one of their main preys is Blackflies.  Enjoy & Protect  them my friends.  GW

Happenings In & Around Port Loring Ontario

Good morning.  Well a really nice looking day thus far.  Temperatures are sitting at….     17 C | 62.6 F.  Will warm up to where it was yesterday a bit later on. Forecast for today is calling for it to be….Stormy, much rain later on in the day and into tomorrow and Tuesday even. Going to get some rain which in reality is needed.  Amazing how things dry out so quickly.  Reason being it is mostly sandy soil in our area.  Mother nature looks after her own.  We as humans think we are so powerful, but if truth be known we are smaller than a gnat compared to our Mother…Earth.   Makes me smile when the so called Powers That Be….say. “This is the way it’s going to be.”

Bug Report:  Well…Black Flies and Mosquitoes are out in full force preying upon us warm blooded critters.  They aren’t real fussy neither, be it horses, dogs, cats, birds, deer or humans.  All a spring feast to them.  At any rate each day moves forward towards the end of the Black Flies and hoping the Mosquitoes fill their appetite and leave us humans alone a bit.  Of course then we have the horse flies and deer flies, along with the no see flies coming into the picture.  Kind of just have to take them one at at time.

Fishing Times:  Today the old weather stick, along with Grandfathers Formula, says that the best times to be out there fishing will be from 12:00 PM – 2:30 PM.  Then once again from 5:00 PM – 7:30 PM.  I give it a 1 fish rating for catching them early, with a 2 fish rating out of 4 later on in the day.  So not the greatest day for fishing, but as I always say…One just never knows when that big old Walleye might take a notion to have a snack.  Good luck!

Around Town:  Quiet here in town this morning.  Once again hardly a car going up or down Highway 522.  You know that tells me folks are staying home enjoying their time with their families.  Seems like a modest thing one can do.  Don’t you think?  My family lives so far apart, makes it a bit hard to communicate, but when we do see each other we make up in the Hug department let me tell ya.

Below I have added a couple flyer’s which might be of interest to folks.  Especially those looking for groceries in our area.  Click Flyer to enlarge…ltss-0353 ltss-0354
