One Day at a Time.

  One Day at a Time.

 

Just talked to Michelle Malay about her day. She feels that she can’t really make plans in case the weather gets weird or her body aches worse than usual. Guess most folks feel a bit like that at times. But today at least a couple of things were accomplished around here: laundry! Never-ending source of work and more work. When it is all hauled into the kitchen to the washing machine, then the dryer gets its work done, and then the “folder” and “putter away of things” gets the rest of the job done. Sometimes it just feels as if it is an endless loop of dirty things that need to be washed and put away. But the blankets the dogs use have a tendency to get pretty rank if the washing gets put off too long. Whew!

 

Right now, the dogs are play-fighting with all the snorting and silly growls. They are so very funny! Cooked liver and bacon for them this morning, but still have not mixed up any veggies for them. Guess a couple of bags of peas and carrots might go well with the rest of the liver. They also had a boiled egg apiece. Gave Thompson the rest of the squash that started out as my lunch. He was not impressed with that or the apple. Oh well.

 

Read WAY too much about the Consort Queen and future King Charles and the mother of his children. Honestly, have no idea why it even interests me. Obviously, fidelity in marriage is not a big thing among royals. How sad. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have “leaders” who had some actual character and not just personality! But then, not many of our politicians even begin to know how much honesty means. God must be pretty disgusted with His children and their bad habits. Can say that my husband never strayed and was always faithful—and vice versa. Maybe more folks like us exist now than ever before, but how would we even know since only the bad stuff is published? And the older marriages may have been more honest than any we see today, or not. Some things we would just rather not even know. Whatever we tried to teach our children may or may not have been effective when we see all the situations in this current world. Shaking my head here.

 

Went down to get Patty’s trash bin earlier today and signed a paper as a witness for her. It reminded me that yours truly needs to do the same thing. She said she would try to remind me to bring the papers when returning the bin. Between the two of us, we might get this done. Had thought to have the housekeeper to sign as a witness next week—if that hits the memory cells just right! Have to have two witnesses to just about any legal document. Such is life.

 

Honestly don’t know diddly squat worth mentioning except to say that Mariellen Rose is still fighting the leukemia. Kathy Jarlsberg and her husband Stilton are pretty miserable. Kathy may—MAY—be getting a little bit better, but that just means that they will pour on more chemo. Barbaric! Insanity! If her bone marrow test is not good, there is nothing more that they can do for her. Maybe it would be best to just let her body fight for itself. The stupid stuff they are doing to her makes me want to shake someone! One nurse gave her Haldon that nearly caused her to go totally insane according to her husband. He had to leave the hospital in order to get one night’s sleep. He said that seeing his daughter J and her dog lifted his spirit. Let us pray for these folks with fervor. Only God can correct the stupidities and illnesses.

 

Guess the hens need to be checked on for now. They have spent the entire afternoon digging up the side lots. Must be something out there that makes them think it needs to be dug up! 

 

The snow and ice are about all gone now! Yay! While the moisture is wonderful, someone else can have that cold, cold air. The sunshine just feels so very good. Thank God for seasons!

 

Rest well, and find all the joys that you might have in life. You are loved.
