Gripes, Groans, and Assorted Grumpies.

 Gripes, Groans, and Assorted Grumpies.

 

Jenn found that she sat too long at her desk when she worked here. At the office, she normally gets up and down quite often to take something from one place to another or otherwise get out of her chair. Lance has found that sitting in my office is pretty danged boring. Plus, nothing works as fast on my internet service as what it does at their office. Anyway, have a feeling both kids will be happy to go back to their own circumstances and situations. Plus, they won’t have to referee any dog fusses. Lance just mixed up two kinds of dog foods in their pans. Sylvia gave him one of those famous “who do you think you are?” looks. She can distinguish between Royal Canin and that other stuff without any problem whatsoever. He just stood there and laughed at the fact that she could pick up two pieces and spit out the one she did not want. His dog does the same thing and will NOT go back to clean out the bowl. And we think our children were picky!

 

It was sleeting this morning, but then it thawed out and just left some moisture on the ground. Nothing impressive about either the amount of sleet or the resulting moisture. Praying that we actually get some spring rains this year. It probably is already too late for the wheat crops. The economic impact may be as much as three times trebled considering all the loss of crops across Europe—especially across Russia and the Ukraine. So sad to think of all those people having to leave their homes behind and try to find a place of safety. God bless them and that which they have had to leave behind. Watching or reading the news is just too sad for words. No words can ever replace the loss of one’s memories and the lives they will have to leave. Truly wish that we could listen to the words of Carl Sagan—this—this little pearl of blue—is the ONLY home we have ever had or will ever have. Let us care for it and for each other.

 

May your days be blessed with happiness and joy despite all the woes of this world. Rest in His peace, my friends. You are loved.
