Today I swam in the lake.  Goliath did not swim in the lake, he drank it, and later, frolicked in the river.

TP Finds You When You Need It

Image
Hello friends.  I am surrounded by books, pictures, crystals, machine washing, cat, fresh air (as far as I know- the window is open and the birds chirp), all the good things.  Some of you may be with your families, or your loved one (who may be driving you crazy), or whatever the case may be- I hope you are well. I am well.  It feels good to get out and drive for a bit and then thinking of that frozen Snickers, pass it up and go to the food store you haven't been to in a while and find tp, ice cream, pizza, and several other assorted goodies.  I have not yet run out of tp, thank the Maker. You may find yourself watching movies lately.  Myself, I've been watching a Star Trek series called Deep Space Nine .  I am very glad for it.  There are like 7 seasons with at least twenty episodes, about 40 to 45 minutes a piece.  That's enough for a while.  I usually watch an episode a day, sometimes two when I am really chillaxin.

Kahlulee, With Love

I really love the Little Free Libraries around town.  Sometimes I feel really called to them.  I picked up two treasures today from one of them: Selected Writings of Edgar Allen Poe and An Event In Autumn by Henning Mankell; I am not sure how treasurous that second one is but it is a mystery and I have been really digging mysteries lately.  It is fun to put books into the Little Free Libraries too.  Often they are McKay's rejects, but hey, they are still good books.  Maybe they are tattered or they have too many of them or whatever to be rejected.  It is nice to contribute since I like to take from these, oftentimes, gems of neighborhoods.  Yes, I will find ones not just in my neighborhood.  I know of at least four around where I live and have seen many more.  Maybe one day I will put one up at my house if I ever have my house .  "If I ever" is kind of lonesome and wanting; how about "when I have my own house.... "  That is much m...

Blessings On This Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving.  The long journey across the ocean.  Retching.  Sickness.  Escape from the tyranny.  It's why I am here on this continent.  Thank you.  There was a feast too with the natives.  Just like we learned about in grade school.  The Pilgrims and the Native Americans eating together.  History has taken many wild turns since Europeans first sailed across the ocean to America.  We can remember when we arrived that we had help from those that were already here.  They fed us and helped us to survive in the New World.  We can return to the days when we accepted each other’s comforts and help.  Those who were with the land and those that came to a new land.  Those that were here and those that eventually had other ideas like expansion.  Those differences, those objectives that were not the same, could not be mended at the time.  So different in world view, and those that wanted to claim did so ...
