GOD save me from people who think they know best!



Someone broke into the yard of 1916 E Amity avenue, in Nampa and stole our four chickens and ancient cat.
I do not know why people go to such great lengths to be AWFUL.
We are very upset this morning, the kids were getting an Ag permit for the chickens, and the old cat never hurt anyone, he stayed on the porch.
There are splats of blood on the sidewalk, but I cannot tell from what, there are no feathers anywhere, as there would be if it were an animal breaking in the yard.
Also the gate was shut.. so I think it was a neighbor, possibly one that keeps calling on us and complaining. We may have to leave the barking dog in the front yard instead of in the house at night...

I know I was suposed to do something

What was I suposed to do? Thank goodness I took notes in every class.
My back pack is so heavy with books that my arms go numb when I am packing it on my back.
Have I mentioned how thankful I am... this is not a cement floor at a convenience store.. OH thankful day.. it's a cement sidewalk with a wave of humanity walking too darn slow, waving their hands and sounding like some tribal mating ritual.. NO that is next semester... BUT I only have ten minutes to get to the other end of campus and it's a hard class, and nobody seems to be in a hurry but me.
I am finished by lunch.. with classes at least, the rest is up to me, on my own, staring at the pages wanting to absorb them.
I think everyone should take english 101 with Mr. Hunt. He is a gifted encouraging teacher. I love how he brings people out of their shell and encourages them to have whole thoughts instead of half assed ones.
He is teaching us to write, I think I can write, but I wanted some disipline. I do everythign I am told, and PRAY and I mean Pray, that I am doing it all right. I haven't got much of a clue these days.
I can learn from him.

Free Write Rant

Ten Minute Free Write On Affluenza…


Well it sure doesn't apply to me, and I find the whole subject tedious.
Want want want.. is not a part of our vocabulary, we have done fine with very little and I find it hard to be sympathetic toward greed.
We don't have TV, so the kids don't think they need tons of new toys, we don't have expensive cars, we are thankful for one that runs.
My head isn't turned by the latest fashion. (Obviously)
I dated a couple of wealthy men a time or two, they are CHEAP!That's why they still have the money. The rest are merely living beyond their means, and need to live without credit, live without want of luxury
Luxury to me is paying bills on time and eating fresh fruit and vegetables.. Luxury to me is being able to buy the Viking a pair of shoes when he needs them.
Bankruptcy would be a result of too many doctor bills, no job and no place to live and NO other way out.
Bankruptcy would never happen because of over spending like there is NO tomorrow.
Its like drugs, just say no, and get over yourself.
Shopping as a past time? NEVER!
One thing we like about Idaho is there is so much to do, that is free. Shopping is for groceries, or the best deal on school clothes.
Let me ad that I am part of a blended family, My daughter, son-in-law, grandkids and son all live together in one house. We conserve, pay bills buy food, and do things together as a unit. It would never occur to us to spend money to the point of bankruptcy. So I hear that the President is tightening laws on Bankruptcy.. GOOD. Make those who are over their head responsible for the debt, and pay it off in full. The only exceptions would be family hardship such as illness or accident.
When I lived in Seattle, an older woman was living in her car, She had owned her home in California, and her husband became ill with terminal cancer. She lost everything, that is WRONG, no one should ever become homeless over medical expenses, it should make the spend thrifts hang their head in shame at their wastefulness.
Which brings me to Socialized medicine.. I know someone else that had to spend their kids college money on cancer treatments. WRONG WRONG again, that sort of thing makes me mad,don'tt even talk to me about people in debt with their big screen TVs and expensive gas guzzlers, it just ticks me off!

Philosophy versus head in the oven


I have to read that book. He uses too many words, I don't mean he uses big words I mean TOO many.
words words words, just for the sake of being wordy, and Don't buy his new book on sale now, more diatribe.
He watches with glee while the Bible Thumpers get intense.
It's all bullshit.. Don't worry, in four months you can take anthropology, which looks intriguing to me.

Tell me something Good.

Read my tarot cards. Give me some objective information. Tell me the future.
Tell me the love of my life is searching for me. Tell me great fortune is on the way.
Tell me my talent shall be noticed.
Tell me I shall be understood.
Lead me to a fast running stream, show me the leaves changing to orange and gold. Show me the age old magic that works in the woods.
Show me the way to true patience and understanding.
Show me sensual understanding and trust again.
Show me I am not too old to experience the greatest depths of love again.
