New and Old

 

Greg is cleaning out the old house. He found this from 2000.

Jr. And Michelle got me a door camera for Christmas. Jr. Came down yesterday and installed it.  It works really well. This was a video, but blogger does not play well with video. Most people call this a doorbell camera, but I do not have a doorbell. Hence, door camera.

Weather is delightful. We got rain yesterday, but lots of sunshine today. At 2:30, I walked my mile in shirtsleeves, no jacket.

We are having beautiful weather

 

Tipped 75 today. I am loving it. Greg even grilled steaks yesterday.

A prayer

A Democratic congressman shamed President Donald Trump during a prayer from just feet away.

Rep. Jonathan Jackson (D-IL) spoke Thursday morning at the bipartisan National Prayer Breakfast, where he cited scripture in his intercession asking God to open the 79-year-old president's heart to greater compassion and to follow Christ's teachings, as Trump stood by shifting his weight from foot to foot behind him.

"We also be reminded that we ask for the word of God, our good and gracious God, we pray for the health and deliberations of the president of the United States," Jackson said, "and we pray that you would be the final arbiter of whatever decisions he endeavors to make, that you would increase the stature of his wisdom, because without you, none of us can adjudicate the overwhelming details of leadership and life today we pray for America and we pray for all parliamentarians around the world.".

"The Book of Timothy teaches us that you have been entrusted with leadership today we pray for the future of this nation and that you would leave this president into greater levels of compassion for your namesake," Jackson continued. "We pray that you would protect him from the iniquities of evil and that you would give him greater clarity, greater courage and greater capacity to do what is right and forever challenges. Today we remind him that the lives of millions of people are in his hands and that he has the power to turn mourning into dancing or to reduce the country into cosmic elegy of chaos and suffering, and it is because of this that we pray that the best of this president would rise among us for the sake of this nation, for the sake of this world, we pray that goodness and mercy would announce themselves in his life in new and powerful ways."

 

Better weather

 It almost made it to 60 today. Snow is almost gone. I walked to Dan's and back in the mud after work.

I found the feathers in the road. They look like woodpecker feathers.

I saw this woodpecker in the trees last week. I think maybe a hawk found him.

It is supposed to be warmer all week. I turned the heat and dripping water off in the old house this morning. It had been on for over a week. I am ready for spring.

This week in the news

 

Count your blessings, things could be wrose...

Supposed to get really cold again tonight.  Sunday looks hopeful, and next week is supposed to be more normal February weather.  Ground hog will not see his shadow because he is frozen.
