Thinking that Noah had a boat load of animals along with his family. It must have been a very big job to keep those animals fed and their stalls cleaned out. Wondering how they dumped the poo overboard? After all, the Bible says that God sealed up the boat. Maybe that just means the big door and not the top level of the boat. But still, if the critters were in the bottom of the boat, that is a lot of poo to haul up to the deck.
You might well wonder what brings Noah to mind. Have you seen where the rains have been falling lately? Not in California or the places that really need it apparently. Have a cousin down in Louisiana and noticed on the internet that her area is flooded to some degree. Then talked to my cousin John near Hot Springs. He said it is too wet to plant anything for sure. Guess it will dry out eventually.
Talked to my cousin in Charlotte, SC, about the guy that the police, sheriffs, and government officers are all trying to catch. Let's pray that they get this @sswipe and take him out of the population. He is so cruel and vicious that he has no concern for anyone. Idiots like that need to be disposed of without bothering with a trial or any other form of legal concern. Endangering entire cities by running into folks and killing them indiscriminatingly is just unreal!
Talking to John and Wham reminded me that it is graduation season. My cousin Pearl had five or six children and twenty grands. Most of them have children or are graduating now. Time moves right along. John said that he is not much of an uncle as he would not know them if he met them on the streets. That happens in every family. My nephew has three daughters that have never been in my home. Think Sterling knows them fairly well, but he is around them every once in a while. Doesn't take long, however, when they are all having babies for those little ones to get well beyond recognition stages. Life goes on.
The front walk looks totally different without all those Bluebonnets piled up on it. Still have a few petunias and poppies growing and blooming on it, but they are not going to trip anyone for sure. Maybe the sun will come out one day this week and dry up enough seeds so that they can be harvested. Does not take long to start shelling the little pods when they dry. And the poppies are already throwing seeds everywhere!
The broody hen is still ticked off, but she is also having to spend another night in the "jail" for her attitude. Maybe one more day will get it. Here's hoping.
Cut some of the Seven-sisters rose back this morning and also cut some of the grapevine back. Can see under the edge of the deck now. The hens use that area for shade and to hide. But they still can. It just looks neater without the stuff hanging on the ground. Filled up the trash bin, but that does not matter overly much. The trash truck comes twice a week anyway.
Think a sack of "chili" mix will be employed for food tomorrow. Bought it some time back and never have cooked it. Now, honestly, REAL chili does not contain beans, but this is a combination of several veggies with spices. And a sack of hamburger meat will be put in there as well. We will see how it turns out. Anything is better than the stuff out of a can.
Know very little to share on here tonight. Cousin Sharron from Quanah is in the hospital, but have no idea if they have been able to fix what ails her. Seems it is a torn aorta rather than an aneurysm. Not sure if that is better or worse! Anyway, please pray for her and for Sharon Dickerson's niece who is taking chemo. May they both recover completely.
Rest well and appreciate every day we are given to love this world and those in it. You know He watches over us.
You are loved.
