A little Ottis Reading … (Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay

Sittin' in the mornin' sun

I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come

Watching the ships roll in

And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' time

I just love this time of the year and since I am managing to stick with my current weight I feel like I am just sittin’ and watching the world go by. Oh I know where I am heading, but I am in no rush to get there. Just happy to be alive and watch as the world goes by with me. So …

Look like nothing's gonna change

Everything still remains the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess I'll remain the same, yes

Sittin' here resting my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

It's two thousand miles I roamed

Just to make this dock my home

Now, I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Oooo-wee, sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' time

Do not get me wrong I am far from lonely, but I just love the world and I love everybody in it. This planet is a lovely place. So I will just sit, carry on, and watch the world continue to turn. I love autumn and looking forward as it turns into winter.

I still have a birthday to fit in before the Old man of 2017 fades away and the new lady of 2018 springs into life.

Have a great week each of you.
