Happy Birthday to Me!

Now...

 

This is a glorious rainy day the Lord has made. Rejoice and be glad in it.

I am reading a book about a WWII prison camp.  It is surprisingly upbeat. I enjoy reading about real people and their real lives that are so different from mine.  I am grateful the Lord gave me today to rest and read.

Quote from the prisoner book: On the whole, punishment hardens people and diminishes their sensibilities; it concentrates,  it intensifies the sense of alienation, it toughens the power of resistance. Nietzsche, The Genealogy of Morals, Essay 2, 1887.

Sun setting on...

 

From my window I often see beautiful close up sunsets, whereas, the sunrise is far off and obscure. That is my life's story.  The beginnings are far away and long ago.  The endings are close up and right here.

Critter Cam December

Had a few racoons, an armadillo, and a bunch of squirrels.  The family of 5 are there almost every day. I think it is a couple of Mama's and 3 fawns born this year.  The two bucks are the only ones captured in the last two weeks.  One is the one horned wander that we have seen before. We get lots of night pics, but only occasionally day pics. The dogs still wonder up there every few days.

My Entertainment, Ode to Sister

I am not really entertained by much of what enterests most people.  I have been reading over Sister Patsy's blog during slow times.  This is what entertained me today.  And, in case you think she just made this all up, NO, this relative of Patsy's late husband actually had his own obiturary published in the local paper in an attempt to aviod arrest.

CALL THE COPS

 

THE LAST TIME I TOLD YOU ABOUT STEVEN GILLON HE HAD CALLED IN HIS DEATH TO THE HARRISON PAPER WHICH THEY PRINTED. THIS CAUSED A CHANGE IN THE NEWSPAPER POLICY IF YOU WANT YOUR DEATH REPORTED IN THE PAPER YOU HAVE TO DRAG THE COFFIN DOWN TO THE NEWS ROOM AND LET THEM CHECK THE COFFIN FOR SIGNS OF LIFE. APPARENTLY STEVEN HAS BEEN CALLING IN FALSE REPORTS TO THE BOONE COUNTY COPS AND THEY TOLD HIM THE LAST TIME IF HE DID IT AGAIN THEY WERE GOING TO PUT HIM IN JAIL,he did and they did. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HE CALLED IN ABOUT BUT HE IS KNOWN TO CALL PEOPLE PRETENDING  TO BE SOMEONE ELSE AND TELLING ALL SORTS OF LIES. THE LAST TIME HE CALLED ME HE SAID HE WAS A COP AND NEEDED TO CONTACT DONALD GILLON , WOULD I KNOW HOW TO CONTACT DONALD? I KNEW IT WAS STEVEN HE HAD JUST CALLED MY SON TRYING TO GET SAMMY TO GO TELL DONNIE TO COME DOWN TO HIS HOUSE. I TOLD HIM I DIDN'T KNOW DONALD GILLON, HE TALKED TO ME TRYING TO IMPROVE MY MEMORY BUT HE WASN'T HAVING ANY LUCK THEN HE SAID DONALD HAS A BROTHER WHO IS A LITTLE HANDICAPPED. I SAID I DIDN'T KNOW DONNIE'S BROTHER EITHER . STEVEN FINALLY GAVE UP AND HASN'T CALLED ME SINCE. I guess calling the cops was more fun cause they came out to his house with blue lights flashing and sirens wailing.
IT WASN'T AS MUCH FUN WHEN HE GOT TO RIDE BACK

Beautiful day in the neighborhood

Take a walk. Sing a song. Read a book. Write a poem.
