I just read ( for a second time) something terrible, horrific and really sad.
( but not TRAGIC, thankfully)
I hope you will benefit in some way by knowing this blogger
and reading her powerful post:
NOT A CINDERELLA STORY
There is always the possibility of (me) being the nice neighbor who was too good to let evil go on unchallenged.
Could You be the neighbor in some other child's story?
--------- friday, I am off to save a 60 year old Chinese Elm by pruning it,
so that the owner would not "rip it out" to avoid the 'maybe' of it falling on the stupid jerk neighbor ( and making the planet a nicer place)
maybe I can drop a chainsaw on this crazed and evil woman?

devolution
unlike my honorable friend in the UK, i will post even when I have little coherent to say. Today feels like a pfffffttt day already at 6:36 am. but blog i must, and there was NO good mail in my INBOX to keep me entertained/ distracted before my driving duties begin at 7:05.
So I checked my junk mail. (see laughter post below, first before you read on)
What I found was that like all life, junk mail is evolving - downward, quickly.
Here are my replies to the Low life offers below.
Vicki, no I do not want to meet, you are not real enough, yet.
Twohotblondes, I have bad eyes, I can't take the chance that you would damage them further.
shipping - send it on over, even though I did not order anything.
Mandy, I think Barry Manilow still has a thing for you.
Yes my poem actually COULD win 10k, in Nigeria..... hehe
Thanks also for the kind gifts of trips and airline tickets, I am so blessed.
By now you can see the one I am heading for....
see it?
YEssss, hot sexy christian singles are looking for me.
Finally someone has figured out my demographic!
This is so me ( checking in mirror)
Hot??? Yes, when I drive without the AC on!
sexy, who even knows what that means anymore, but I am sure I am.
Christian?? yes, saved by grace through faith. washed in the blood of the Lamb, and dedicated to God. Forever grateful that my life which was on a strong downward spiral, has been snatched up by a gracious loving, merciful Lord.
Single??? Seems so, despite my best efforts.
I am so signing up for this! Woo Hoooo

you know what?
I am just excited
so many things going on
small things:
like my mom doing better every day
and the peace I have that overcomes nagging doubts.
Big things, like good work and challenging
projects and renewed contact with good clients.
healthy activities and beautiful art work.
not to mention all the mornings I wake up here
at 7000 feet and enjoy the clean air and deep blue sky.
and maybe, just maybe God will let me have that sailboat.
some day this week I will go inspect it, after laying my hands on it
my heart will be knit to it, and the blood in my veins will go a bit saltier
even though I know that
Yes there is a sailor inside of me,
but he does not have permission to cast off shore just yet.
"Patience, your time will come, Lad."
Aye Captain. ( sighs)
someone go to my paypal account and put in xx,xxx.00
just for fun, ok?

MUST HAVE!
i really need this

Globaloney
Yeah, its hot out there! somewhere,
and later it will cool off, Thank God.
and surprise, when the sun comes back up, it will get warm again, maybe really warm. Even uncomfortably warm. Let me tell you, it was cold in my room last night, darn cold.
but then, i climbed under three blankets and a comforter and warmed up just fine to sleep right on through the COLD night until my eyes popped open at 5:30 ( my ears opened first, haha) and made my way down to feed the infernal combustion machine that is my woodstove.
PRESTO - I had warmth.
all this to say... I have no idea about the Global warming and cooling cycle EXCEPT to say that it is a cycle and it does manage itself. THE BIGGEST source of heating of this planet is our own SUN and we need that, so until the eco- enviro- hollywood- leftists find the Thermostat for the sun, we are going to have cycles of global cooling and warming.
I am ok with that.
we should worry about other things that we CAN do something about
and then DO something about them.
SUPPORT kids clubs, coach a team, hug your children and tell them you love them.
Take good care of your parents when they are old.
AFTER THAT, if you can catch the emissions from a cow, and use it to boil some water, have a cup of tea, and read Ann Coulter ( side bar ) and here. She is funny, and brilliant ( like me!)

how I spent my week
just hanging out with my bird friends, ( in Oceanside)Eating good seafood,
Mixing it up.
so to speak
Doing something HARD
and rewarding
making lots of mess
and putting another
400 miles on the
Ford.
You know what? I am having the time of my life! Notes: i just liked the shapes and colors, the seagulls caught my eye first. second pic - poured concrete floor - in process, design will be enhanced by stain to be applied later.
