Chickens

When down on her son’s farm, my sister keeps busy collecting and cleaning eggs as I previously blogged. But, I didn’t have any pictures of the hens. So she graciously sent a couple.

Note, they aren’t as cute as the pigs. Fancy hens are though these aren’t that.

And the eggs in process of being cleaned. I don’t envy her the work.

I do miss her though We had fun despite the endless shredding papers I never got around to and cleaning the bedrooms. Hardest was back bedroom cause after we got it all clean and tidy with room to walk around in, my daughter would fill it up. Now she’s moved out, there’s plenty of room everywhere. It is nice.

I do miss my family. Both here and in Canada, back East and down South. Some I haven’t seen in years cause I just can’t afford to visit. Or call as my landline phone died and I haven’t gotten it replaced. May be just a break in a cable. I’ll try to replace it so I can call.

Do reconnect with family members, even ones you may have issues with if you can. You never know. #LIGHTtheWORLD

#LIGHTtheWORLD

Today both my family and I will go to church to honor the sabbath as Jesus did. I’ll do other things too, read scriptures for one.

This is Willow, my sister’s granddaughter, ready for church.

Interesting, her family are Mennonites, good people. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon). So are we.

Other ways to honor the sabbath here. It matters bit whether one is Mormon, Mennonite, Catholic, Evangelical or other Christian denomination. These ideas are applicable to all. Do check it out. It is wonderful our church is highlighting ways to be like Jesus this Christmas.

Family Farm Fun

My sister has fun collecting and cleaning the eggs from both her son’s chickens and her daughter-in-law’s brother’s chickens, that’s 198 chickens, two farms. Early in the morning before the eggs freeze. It has been bitter cold and windy so poor hens got a bit cold in the henhouse. Awesome of her to help out when she is there.

Then it’s on to the piggies, they get the broken eggs. Nothing goes to waste on the farm.

There are other animals at the farm too. Cats, excellent for keeping the rats away although the chickens do that too with the little ones, killer chickens lol.

Pugs. Always! Debbie took hers for a lovely long walk in the snow. They had tons of it up there in the Toronto area too, not just in the U.S.. Bad weather back East overall Guess you can blame Al Gore for all this global warming causing it.

Too cold for me. And her, why she wants to spend winters here in sunny, warm Arizona with me. Oh and she wants to spend time with her sister too. We had fun together every time she was here. Sides I need her, especially nice to have someone that notices my breathing or lack thereof when I fall asleep laying on the sofa. I tend to not be aware of it until I wake up short of breath and ofttimes gasping for air. Sleep apnea sucks.

Back to the farm, summers are nice except for the flies. I wouldn’t mind visiting them in the summer provided I could afford it and they would have me. I’d love to meet all of Debbie’s grandchildren especially this cutie, Willow.

The pig is her favorite. Fitting. Debbie loves pigs too.

Been Too Long Again

Let’s see, Photos isn’t updating from the computer. Google Photos which I used as a backup isn’t either. The WordPress app on the iPad isn’t uploading pictures and keeps crashing when I try. Logged me in on my WordPress.com login too. Now it doesn’t even allow for adding posts. So, finally got one to upload by using WPAdmin in Safari. Problem is pictures used to come out upside down when I used Safari so don’t know if they fixed that. Nope they didn’t. I just uninstalled the WordPress app and reinstalled it, logged into my WordPress.com site which manages all of them and gave permission to upload things. Think that was missing before. Will see if it works. Ok, does just can only upload like three pictures at a time or it fails. Bother, no wonder I rarely post. Easier to use Twitter, Facebook or Instagram. Finally got it.

I am still tweeting a lot, most of it political. Unless I have more to say on it, just go there. Mostly sticking to family stuff. Speaking of which, my daughter moved out finally, had too. I was in no condition to babysit and that she had me do, always without asking, and many times without telling like when she would go out late after we were asleep. There’s more but basically being short of breath all the time with frequent angina made it difficult for me to do it all.

With much help from friends at church, got almost all the last of her stuff moved. Still have outdoor stuff and odds and ends but I now have room to put stuff. Very nice. However, I did do my part moving light stuff and am totally exhausted. I did make it to my favorite Christmas party the Greers have, barely made it and passed out soon as I got home. I did enjoy myself and glad they invited me.

Now it’s off to church. I might have something to say after if I don’t have too much effort with WordPress.

The Day After

Trump won. Lot of people expressing unity, working together, healing. Good speeches by Trump, Clinton and even Obama.

Biggest hopeful sign: Trump is friends with Bibi. As was Mitt Romney. Not so much Obama who’s affinity was with Muslims, specifically the Muslim Brotherhood. Good that will change.

Three cats

Had to have a kitty pic, something to brighten the day.

More bright thoughts: maybe the corruption heading our agencies will be routed out. He can start with Loretta Lynch. Expect a quick repeal of that disastrous Obamacare. Think the high rate increases had more to do with Hillary’s loss than the rampant corruption uncovered in her emails not to mention treason. And just maybe, they will actually investigate the Clinton Foundation.

Happy Halloween 650,000 Times

It is the gift that keeps on giving, Anthony Weiner’s laptop. Who knows what goodness Huma has there, courtesy of Yahoo mail. Who uses Yahoo mail for State Department business, maybe top secret business? Huma Abedin, Hillary’s top aide that’s who.

Rumors abound as to who she may have shared them with considering her family’s ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. Oh boy! This election sure has it’s twists and turns.

I am voting for Evan McMullin. My conscience will be clear. My friend, Kiril Is doing the same. Freedom is on the line.

Unfortunately, I think I know who will win. Read Matthew 24, Revelation 17-19. This is what we must do if we are to survive perilous times ahead. Joy and Spiritual Survival by Russell M Nelson. Christ is key.

And on a lighter note, since it is Halloween, a cat.

Halloween cat

Always a cat, Debbie’s cat Uma.

Update: I am back mostly as I was able to nab a used iMac for less than the cost of repairs. Now completely broke.

Musings

Been a long while and a lot has happened. This is Quentin, Chicky’s baby with Uma, my sister’s cat. Just found she has more on her Facebook page too. Beautiful cat, adorable grandnephew.

Uma and Quentin

Other one Debbie sent.

More Uma and Quentin

About to get a new family member as Debbie’s youngest is soon to deliver. Very exciting time.

Update: Havee and his baby brother, Kade. Beautiful baby looks like his daddy, Kyle.

Have and Kade

Then there’s my health situation which I briefly discussed on Facebook. Not going to go into too much detail just know it is worse. It’s a MS thing. Speaking of which, it’s kicking in.

Little more detail, I had been in the hospital, had lots of tests, they figured out what I said all along that it was the MS. They gave me IV SoluMedrol per protocol. Not entirely fixed and will have more testing. So far, they have concluded my breathing is not effective, weak from the MS so I am short of breath and have angina. That hurts worse than my trigeminal neuralgia. Sucks!😡

Far better than what’s happening on the political front copiously covered on my Twitter page. From WikiLeaks email dumps on Hillary to Trump’s campaign tanking lots are happening. Too many links just get on Twitter. Or check the news.

Welcoming Quentin

My sister sent more cute baby pics. Quentin is home and doing fine now as you can see here. Havee and Quentin, adorable boys here.

Havee and Quentin

Willow and Quentin in this pic. She’s the cutest.

Willow and Quentin

Angie, Willow and Quentin. Angie is Willow’s mom.

Angie, Willow and Quentin

I never tire of seeing cute family pics.

I do note the blog posts to Facebook. I just got done listening to Glenn detail all the information Facebook stores on us. Safe to say everything you do online they have from purchases to bank account balance. Stuff you never gave them. Scary stuff.

Absolutely Adorable

Willow and kitty, think it’s my new favorite pic of her. My sister shares nothing but the best.

Willow and cat

Not sure I would get that close considering that’s the kitty the cows pick up and lick. Maybe after cat has washed lol!

Anyway, had to share something cheery. News isn’t. Family is, most of them. Now it’s back to loving the kitty.

Prayers

Just got a beautiful new grandnephew but he isn’t doing so well so prayers needed on his behalf. My niece is downright gorgeous in this photo my sister sent me. Note the whole family is beautiful. I told my sister and my niece that on her FB page. She might be a little busy to read it. All my sister’s children and grandchildren are beautiful. Good genes.

beautiful family

I know I’m a little absent on the blog. Just been so busy on Twitter I haven’t had time for much else.
