"It Could Have Happened To Our Group"

             Your's truly is taking the picture. Didn't get everyone. 8-31-2019 Perryton, TX

This is some of the widows having dinner at the Smoke House this evening. It was a nice meeting, and everyone was pleased with their good food. Right after we arrived at the Restaurant my daughter called me from Odessa, Texas to inform me of a mass shooting that was taking place at the moment. She was so excited she could hardly talk. It seems at first it was reported to be multiple shooters, with no exact location, or motive. The news was telling everyone in Odessa, and Midland to lock their doors while they were in search of the shooters. At the time she called two people were dead, and 20 injured. I ate my food and got home as quickly as I could, and turned on the news. By them one shooter had been killed, and a total of five dead, including three law officers. with 21 injured. At this time not much more than that has been given out. However, they believe now that there was only one shooter. We are waiting for more information at this time. It turned out not to be as bad as at first thought to be, but it's always good not to take any chances. And it could possible be more than has been reported. The one shooter is dead, and no information could be obtained from him.


This is one more proof that America has turned into a blood thirsty country, excuse my plain language. People who kill others without in self defense are crazy, and there are many now endangering our communities. In my opinion there are far too many to ever be treated and helped to have sound minds again. There are not enough facilities nor mental health workers to touch the surface of this huge, explosive problem. Just to add to this story, in this same day I was hearing on the news that in another place in the United States the same exact mass killing was happening. I'm sure these were not the only two places today. We used to say as long as it's not in the United States there's nothing to worry about. Well it is now in the United States, and even in our back yards. It's clear to see that the problem is out of control, and the future does not look good for America. The root of the problem is in our government elected officials. How did they get elected, since being against America, no doubt? Because of the evil that had become so sophisticated, and because of good people who wanted to stay Christlike, and be a good neighbor. The rebel population grew so fast, and furious, till the big giant slept too long. We must wait now for a Little David to come to us. Will it happen again? I have hopes, but I can understand if God does not send us one. He has had more patience than this world ever deserved. All Christian warriors must, just must, humble themselves and pray. Times are bad, regardless of who tries to convince you they are not.

"Everything Means Something"

Ennie meenie minny  mo, where did the fox go? He lost his tail for sure. 8-30-2019 Perryton TX.

I think a fox left it's tail in my yard today. I picked it up from off the ground, and took a picture. There is no plant in my yard that produces bushy tails like this. Fun times late in summer while sitting out in the yard. A few butterflies were seen zooming in and out, but didn't give me a chance to take their picture. I saw some very pretty ones, but they were not doing free photography. I think it's locusts I keep hearing every time I walk outside, but it sounds like someone's telephone is ringing off the wall. It never stops, so locusts are the only thing I can think of. My bird friends must have been in a meeting this morning, because I saw very few. They don't know what they missed. I came to watch them, but no show of them. Finally I came back inside to post my fox tail, and write my unfruitful field trip. Maybe something good will transpire from this blah experience. At least I broke inside boredom for awhile.


I am planning to meet a friend at 3 o'clock to have a late lunch. This is always an interesting time, and I so much look forward to it. Today I will be ordering a steak san because I have been craving one every since I watched my friend devour one last week. (This place makes very good steak sandwiches.) She had tator tots, and gravy with hers, but I will leave them off. I also talked with a friend whom I hadn't visited with in quite some time. She is doing very well considering the disability problem she has.


All of the above excitement happened after I had watched several hours of disgusting news about our defunct Department Of Justice system. My anger was high, and I needed to just talk to the birds. No birds, no talk, but I did find the fox's tail which made me feel awesome for nothing. My advise to all disappointed persons over our criminal system is take a deep breath, go look for the fox's tail, and keep the faith God gave you. It may not be our way, but it will be to our best interest. God will not fail. As long as God keeps our President Trump safe, he will bring us to victory bye, and bye. The cards were stacked against him, but he is a shuffler like no other. He will do more than cut the cards, he will accidentally separate them. Never, never under estimate President Trump. He is stronger than a bull's whip, and wiser than a serpent. I will continue to watch the next episode of this great, world changing novel, and the future most talked about event America has ever been faced with. God is long suffering, and he expects His children to be the same. Bring it on Satan, we are ready to show you just how feeble, and weak you really are.

"I Found A Mystery Today"

Hey, hey, where did you come from? You were not here two days ago. 8-29-2019 Perryton, TX
 

This little plant that looked like an apple tree growing from the root of an apple tree next to it, caught my eye today. It had two blossoms, and looked very lively. Two days ago I was in the same spot picking peaches and I never noticed this plant. I called Chuck to come at look at the plant, but he laughed about me thinking it was a new apple tree growing next to the old one. He didn't even offer to tell me what it was. I have never seen a plant like this one before, nor is it normal this time of the year to see a lively, blooming plant just starting to grow. I will take care of it because I am so fascinated with the unusual appearance it has made. It will get fertilized next week, and before a freeze comes I will cover it with straw. Some things just have to be left for the benefit of the doubt.


I was able to peel, and put three gallons of peaches in my freezer today from Chuck's peach tree. My freezer is almost full, but I hope to find space for a few more gallons. They make delicious cobblers. We had one for lunch today. There are probably three of four bushels of peaches on the ground, but no one seemed interested in canning them. They say it's easier to buy them already canned. Well good luck, but I prefer to have home grown, and canned peaches, as well as all other fruits, and vegetables, even though I do get a back ache from all the work involved. I am a country gal, and I spent a good part of my summers as a child helping my mother can food. I cherish those precious memories, and today as I peeled peaches, it seemed like my mom was right beside me.


I am finished with my work today, but will be spending a long evening, and part of the night just watching television. It gets pretty boring hearing the same news over, and over. Every show has to give their own opinion of everything that happened today. I sometimes think we are too anxious for people who have done bad things to be punished. When they don't have to pay for their terrible mistakes, it makes us so angry we want to call upon God to do the job our Justice department is failing to do. Can I for one, just wait till God is ready to “lock them up?” I need to take life easy from now on, and just have a lot of fun, and pleasure. However, I do appreciate those patriots who have dedicated their lives to keep people like myself safe, and sound. It is a God given ability, with part of the requirements of life. Only in the new life will we ever understand. “Help me Lord not to even try. You are my shield, and I will trust you forever.”

"Death Is Only Temporilly Even To plants"

                         Asparagus plants are thriving beyond belief. 8-28-2019 Perryton, TX

The two things growing in my yard that never need watering is asparagus, and sunflowers. The asparagus I am posting is so tall, and I dread having to cut it back a little later on. I will not be able to get the cutters inside the thick stalks very easy. When I do get them all cut they make a stack as high as a small mountain. I just pile them all back on the bed that I cut them from so they will protect from freezing weather later on. I enjoyed lots of meals of asparagus this last spring. I have eaten the last package I put in the freezer. Every year I have a bigger crop than the year before. The same is true with my sunflowers and holy hawks. I don't ever have to plant seeds to have a bountiful crop of them. Of course the morning glories are the fasting spreading flower in the yard. I have to keep trimming them out, or they would grow on every vine, or fence around my yard. Then I have the tropical grass that is impossible to keep thinned out. So when I say I am not messing with beautifying my yard any more, I am just fooling myself. I have no choice if I keep living in my home. I hope I have a better attitude, and a better, arthritis free, body next year. I have faith that I will.

My faith has been growing in spite of dry weather, and hot wind. The three inches of rain we had recently have made my brown grass turn green again. I will have to call the lawn man again after all. It seems like almost instantly my worries have vanished, and I am seeing nothing but fun times ahead. Arthur Aitis has left me but still visits me occasionally. He doesn't like it because I don't give into him. Although I didn't expect him to leave, I'm sure glad he did. I can't name all the good things that I have been experiencing lately, but I had to first fight a big battle. Or should I say I had to wait while God fought my battle. He never fails, and I never fail to thank Him. Every trial I have to go through is worth the willingness I have to answer to, If it be the way that hurts me so badly I can't hardly bare it, I will say, I am strong, and I can do it. Most of the time things get better, and all the time I get rewarded more than I asked. I just have to be willing to let things go that I can't control, and learn to live with the circumstances. The beautiful song, “One Day At A Time,” comes to my mind a lot. I think I have to pray for patience more than anything else. Tribulation brings forth patience. That is found in God's Word, and I will never doubt it.

"Yesterday Is Gone Today Is Now End Of Quote"

                                Bird with spread wings flying high. 8-25-2019 Perryton, TX
While watching the clouds this afternoon due to a storm report, I caught a shot of this bird just as it started to fly. Seldom ever do I get a shot like that. Birds are faster than sound, and unless they are perched for a time, I can't get a picture of them. I had already missed a shot of one of the most beautiful birds I had ever seen. It landed less than a second, and I was so disappointed when I didn't get it's picture.


It's football season now, and my street is fixing to get extremely busy. Practice field is just across the street from my house. Cars line the streets with parents watching their boys practice. They bring lawn chairs, and ice coolers. I used to be one of them, but now even my grandsons are past that age. I can't seem to stop the time from flying by. But I am not ready to admit that I'm getting old. I'm just getting more freedom all the time. No one needs me any more, so I'm good to go my own way. Go when I get ready, and come home when I get ready. Some of the best years of my life. God didn't forget to stop blessing me. I find Him sweeter each day of my life. His Word now seems to be ice cream garnished with cherry syrup. It used to be more like beef steak, hard to chew, but that's all changed. It was time for my dessert finally. “Thank You Lord Jesus.”


Even all the evil news on television seems less troublesome now. I have been warned of the bad things that will be happening, so I am ready to leave it in God's hands. He said the battle is not ours, but His. I'm here if He needs me, but I believe He has told me to occupy now till He calls me home. I have fun things planned for my future. I know I am shielded by His great almighty power. I will still be shedding tears, especially for those like the little four year old boy I heard about this week who's parents had decided to change him into a girl. Their commit was, “ we're so glad we did it.” The innocent always have to suffer with the guilty, which is something I am still trying to understand. I believe I have just recently been delivered from much agony, and pain about so much evil that is dominating our world today. The lord knew when I had had enough, and He gave me scripture to stand upon. I believe the next sad phase in my life will be when God says “Welcome home, thy good and faithful servant, enter into thy rest.” It will not be sad for me, but for my children, and grandchildren. I can remember too well how it was with me when God called my loved ones home. It is still hard, but help is always there when I ask God for it. God is good to all His children.

"Happy 100th Perryton Texas"

A small part of a large crowd at the 100th birthday celebration of Perryton Texas. 8-24-2019 Perryton, TX
 
I just got home from attending Perryton's 100th celebration. It was a blast. Several thousand people attended, and after the free bar-b-q dinner the crowd moved to the Museum of The Plains for live entertainment, and home-made ice cream for the rest of the evening. The big rain down-pour last evening made the weather comfortable, and most of the seating arrangement was under covered roofs, so it was very enjoyable to sit outside and listen to the live band. A lot of my friends were there to take in the big event. Perryton has this celebration yearly, but since this was the 100th this town was crowded with ex-citizens who came back just to celebrate. It couldn't have been better organized, or anything added to have made it more enjoyable. Hats off to all the people who worked so hard to make this birthday for Perryton, one of the greatest ever. I missed the long parade because I couldn't get around early enough, but I heard it was absolutely wonderful. Also I never get to take in the free breakfast because it starts at 6 o'clock in the morning. It takes till 10 o'clock to get them all fed. Some people think it's rewarding to stand in line for an hour or two just to get a free breakfast. Not this person for sure. We do have a great community with great people. And I don't know why people like this lost city in Texas. I've lived here 62 years, and I still just tolerate it, even though I know of no other place I would rather live. All four of my children started kindergarten here, and graduated here, Only one still lives here. The others have no interest here at all except for their mother.

When one can go to bed at night, and feel as though their not on the same planet with all the terrible evil that the rest of the world deals with, that's got to be appreciated. That's what isolation gives us. The drug problem is minimal, the hate issue is slight, the felony charges are low, and over all the city is pretty safe. Yet I wonder why we are in a building program of a 15 million dollar jail facility. Could Perryton be getting prepared for something in the future that has been prophesied? That very possibly could be true. It does seem like evil is spreading, and getting worse every day. But as for now, I feel so safe, and blessed in my little place of a long time home. Some people never lock their doors, and feel completely safe. I do lock my doors, because I am not one to take risks even though it seems unnecessary. Evil has a way of finding us even though it may be thousands of miles away. We all are part of a larger, world technology age that can locate anything that might seem vulnerable. Nothing we can do, or deny access to, can keep us completely safe. Only God can keep us safe.

God Bless

"Someone Tilted The Spout"

                     Pouring from the house top. Rain, rain, rain. 8-23-2019 Perryton, TX
The rain poured down yesterday, as you can see in the picture, for about thirty minutes. It amounted to 1 ½ inches. Today we have gotten another ½ inch, and we are in a much better mood as a result. I'm still not on top of the world, but I'm getting there. We have had a long stretch of dry weather, and the dead grass, and flowers were depressing to say the least. I can already see a difference in the brown grass, although the flowers will not bloom again this year. We still have a 20 percent chance of rain yet today, and the humidity is 45. It's a lot cooler, and we're hoping for still cooler weather tomorrow for the 100th Perryton celebration. A big parade, and bar-b-q dinner will be the highlight of the week-long celebration. This is always an exciting event, and hopefully I will be lifted up from a drag, to a speed monster. I really need a change of pace, but have refused to change it. I find it very easy any more to fall into a rut, and hard to get out of. I try too hard to use my head, and be real cautious about everything I do. This can become a defense to me, and it takes family and friends to help me fight that battle. I do trust God, but even Jesus had to fight against evil temptations. I am staying on top of the mulligrub's, caused from idleness. I will not stay idle for long.


I have a bad habit of when I am feeling bored, just go to the kitchen and cook a lot of high calorie food. That is a hard habit to kick, and I try to keep my weight down. Today I did make a batch of rich brownies, and I already feel better after eating two. I have been fighting the temptation to make bierix for several weeks. I always over eat when I make them. Now that I've given into brownies I'm sure bierix will be soon coming. Yes, I know how to beat boredom, but I cannot keep my weight down when I am not bored. I can't win for losing. As long as I am well, everyone says I should be happy. I agree with that. After visiting with a friend in Oklahoma City for an hour this morning, I know how to appreciate my good eyesight. She has had to quit driving on the highway, and only drives around town. She seemed to be o k with that, but me, I thought oh my gosh, I could never accept that. I guess I need to hear a good sermon on how to take life one day at a time. That is what this friend said she learned to do. She said she thanked God every morning for giving her another day. What a sweet attitude this friend has. I pray God will forgive me of all my complaints. I don't deserve all the blessings He gives me.

"The Cat Was Let Out Of The Box Today"

            The cat was let out of the box today. It came to visit me. 8-22-2019 Perryton, TX

A complete stranger came to my house early this morning. I had just gotten up and pulled the drapes back when I saw this friendly cat. It walked right up to my porch. I have no idea who the cat belongs to, but it seemed to have been well cared for. As far as I know none of my close neighbors have cats. None of us want to worry about taking care of a cat family. We ignore them and hope they don't come back. However, I was so impressed with the friendliness of this pretty cat. I had to take it's picture. It was nice and cool this morning after an inch and ½ of rain last night. That is probably why the cat came visiting our neighborhood. Just taking in the fresh smell of a greatly needed rain. How thankful we are for that big blessing.


After I left work today I stopped by a small fast food place to have a coke. I was happy to have the privilege to visit with three sweet ladies whom I have known for years. All of whom have become widows, one just in the past month or so. It was a nice meeting that lasted for about two hours. I felt sure this was a God thing, because none of us was in any hurry to leave. Then when I got home I went to sleep in my recliner. Surprisingly right in the midst of hearing some breath-taking news. I learned that a huge discovery had been made into the investigation of the political espionage of the coup with the President of the United States. I saw one big member of this gang confessing his part in it. He had been caught up with, and had no other choice but to resign his important job, and admit his guilt. We are at the breaking point of a history-making event like America has never known before. How could I have fallen to sleep? But make no mistake about it when I finish this blog my head will be glued to the television all evening. I heard this man say law and order will be returned to the United States after this big break through. That is the best news I've heard since President Trump was elected President. America, and Israel will again be made great, and be respected again by all other countries, especially the evil part of America. What a miracle our God has just made happen. That's not saying it's all over, or no more good lives will be lost, but it is the first step into saying God is moving quickly now, and the battle is in his hands. Justice is coming after all. America the great, and her mother country, Israel, will be freed from evil hands, and blood thirsty demons. We should all be praising God with all our heart. I certainly will never stop praising Him.

"Broom Corn Maybe"

            What is it? Broom corn maybe? It sure gets lots of attention. 8-21-2019 Perryton, TX

My next door neighbor has this tall plant that just keeps growing taller every year. I don't know what it's called, but she pampers it to death. It's growing up against the fence that separates my patio from her yard. I can sit in my lawn chairs and watch this tall plant wave at me. It never blooms, but the heads are suppose to be eye catching. These heads look something like my dad's Milo feed used to look when they were about to make a big head of grain for the cattle. Surly this isn't cow feed growing next to my fence. Like I said it never does anything but grow taller, and make something like straw heads. I thought it was a little unusual, and wanted to post it. This same yard if full of beautiful flowers, because this neighbor lady could put a stick in the grown and it would grow pretty flowers. That's because she keeps everything watered even in 100 degree temperature weather such as we're having today. My flowers have all been dead for quite awhile except for the sunflowers. It was too much work to keep the water moving all day long every day.


I missed the luncheon today because I had a lot of things to do. I cleaned my kitchen, and painted a couple of hours. When I finish this blog I will start peeling peaches to freeze. There is another thing or two I wanted to do, but it will have to wait for another day. I've been invited to attend an evening pot luck with a group of friends this evening then a prayer service after the meal. I just can't seem to work it into my busy days. I'm thankful that we have people who attend these meeting faithfully. It is a community thing, and held in an old movie theater which is very nice. It is groups like these that are keeping our country safe, and keeping our President protected. Prayer is the answer to all problems. And of course who doesn't like to share a good meal once a week with friends. I hope to join with this band of faithful Christian people before long.


God certainly has been answering a lot of prayers for me lately. I feel so blessed, and thankful for His help when the enemy attacks. “Happy are those who trust in the Lord.” He will direct their path. We shall mount up with wings as eagles, and not grow weary. I can claim this promise because it has been proven to me. At the end of the day I am physically tired, but my soul gets rest through the night, and my body receives the benefit. Every morning I get up feeling great. For two hours my time is spent drinking my coffee, and thanking God for all His blessings. Then I am ready to get up from my recliner, and make a difference in the way I felt the night before. God is good all the time.


God Bless

"Too Late For A Crutch"

                  One less limb on the peach tree. I'm sure it won't miss it. 8-20-2019 Perryton, TX
 

It looks like I will be pealing peaches a lot this next week. Chuck's tree is so loaded the limbs are breaking. I plan to freeze as many as I can make room for in the freezer, and can the rest in jars. It's a lot of hard work, and I had sworn off of any more canning but those peaches are so good. They are much better than the ones you buy in the can. Peach cobbler is my favorite fruit pie. I will tackle the job starting tomorrow. I have been eating fresh peaches right off the tree for two weeks. I just must save as many as I can. It took me a week off and on to get an apples tree staked for Chuck. The ground was so hard till I had to keep pouring water in the hole before I could dig deeper. I finally got the hole deep enough, and drove the metal stake in the ground. I let it settle for a few days, and today I successfully got the little apple tree pulled back to where it was almost straight and tied it to the stake. Before it's trunk was almost touching the ground. Chuck planted it crocked a few years ago, and never staked it up. It took every brain cell I have to figure out how to straighten that bending tree up. Then it took all my muscle strength to follow through with my idea, It worked just fine, My son, Chuck, was even excited about the success. He does not have strength to help because of a bad lung problem, but he still likes to see his fruit trees bearing fruit each year.


I had a call today from a friend who moved to Oklahoma from Perryton several years ago. She had rented a house here and was in the process of moving back, but the house was found to belong to some drug dealers so she declined to take it. She wanted me to be on the look out for another one, so I now have another job to keep me busy. She is a good friend, and I want so much to help her find a place. Friends like her are rare, and only God can make them available for you. She and I can share the most secretive parts of our life, and feel comfortable with it. I am excited, and anxious to get her moved back. She will be a blessing to any church she decides to attend.


Hopefully I can make it to the Senior luncheon tomorrow, I have been missing too many, and it shows up on me when I start hearing so many things that happened while I was away. I don't like surprises when it comes to hearing about bad things happening to my Senior friends. Their lives are too important to me, and to the community to let misfortunes attack them. There is strength in unity, and that's what our Senior Citizens Center is all about. Let us keep building on that strength.

"A Wake Up Call For All"

This is not the picture I wanted to post, but the other one is on my I phone and I don't know how to transfer it to my regular pictures. It is a pic of the police officer, and me. 9-19-2019 Perryton. TX
 
My day started off good this morning, but before noon I had been scammed, and didn't realize it until after I had given my social security number. I wasn't asked for it, but supposedly a good friend texted me and said she had received her grant money form the FTC, Federal Trade Commission. She said it was something about Social Security beneficiaries, and a lot of people were eligible for it. She had applied, and got her grant for a business or anything she wanted to do with the money. She said it was a grant and didn't have to be paid back. Well I was a bit skeptical about that, but a member of my family had told me her mother had been contacted about saving her some money on her insurance, and other things. At first she was skeptical, but little by little she followed instructions, and she did get her insurance lowered, and was being saved several hundred dollars a month. I had been reading on face book where many seniors were eligible for extra benefits, but didn't know it. This friend who texted me said she had been blessed, and suggested I contact the number to see if I qualified. Not thinking too much of it I did text the number. I gave them my name and social security number to see if I qualified. Supposedly they had a list of all who qualified if they had enough information to check for sure. A lawyer called me back claiming to be my agent, and said he would check further. By this time I was getting very skeptical and called this friend. She told me she had not texted me, nor did she get any grant money. I headed for the Police Station. The officer took my I phone, and read all the bull and blocked a few numbers, then told me that my friend had been hacked, and I had been scammed. He told me to tell her to change her pass word, and if I had any more trouble to come back. He did take his picture in his uniform beside me and sent the message to the hacker saying maybe we should meet. But before the officer did that the evil creature kept trying to get more information from me. The officer gave me a number to call the social security office and tell them I had been a victim of a scam, and have them to watch my SS number. I am learning more every day just how wicked this old world is getting to be. I have been attempted to be scammed several times before, but only once, the first time it happened, did I get fooled. Never, never get too confident in your friends when they sound a little bit too excited on the text msg.

"Sunday Cruising Is Not Intrusion"

                   I love the way some friends trimmed their little evergreen. 8-18-2019 Perryton, TX
Sunday afternoon cruise, and I am now updated on all the newest additions, and improvements around our small city. We have some beautiful homes, and gorgeous yards in some of our additions. It's hard to believe that people with so much money would want to live in such an isolated part of North West Texas. We do not even have a Walmart store here. That should tell you a lot about our city. The closest other smaller towns are fifty, to sixty five miles away. Except a couple of wide places in the road. The largest town where one must travel to see a doctor, except for band-aid purposes, is 130 miles away. Perryton does have a large hospital with the latest type of equipment but only for minor cases. Five or six doctors, but none are specialist. Why all the money has been put into the facility is a mystery to me. I guess I still have a lot to learn. For anyone who just wants to live a simple, modest, and boring life, Perryton is o k. When I was younger, and raising my family there was no time to be bored. But since growing up all have moved far away except for one son, and he really isn't here by choice. His health keeps him here where he has lived since he was six years old. Almost all of his friends have moved away.


As far excitement I get plenty of that from watching television. But one needs to get out and move about when the repeats start up. Opinions can get boring also. I want to be able to give my own, but only in person, and to someone who matters. Where do I go for that? Most people don't want to talk about wicked things that are happening in our country today. I certainly don't, but what if everyone wanted to be silent about the evil, and corruption that seemingly is taking over our country. I can only pray for strength to keep my sanity. I believe God hears, and answers that prayer every day. Insanity is the biggest problem America has. It is growing by leaps and bounds every day. It takes longer for Satan to accomplish his goal with some, more than others, but make no mistake he will not give up as long as the victim keeps letting him listen to them. Many are at the point of nonredeemable, and it's sad that the targeted one can't see that. I know this sounds gloomy, but we must face the facts, and deal with the consequences. How long America can deal with it, nobody knows. But as for now I am holding our President, and Vise-President up in prayer constantly. Israel is mentioned in my prayers daily. We must fight for God's chosen nation. Israel. The long mistreated women in the Muslim religion are now taking the lead in trying to destroy that Blessed Israelite Nation. I for one never saw this coming from reading my bible. Many surprises are yet to come.

"A Restful Thinking Place"

The fawn and squirrel have been my yard companions this entire summer. 8-17-2019 Perryton, TX
 
No matter how hot the temperature was these two little animals have always welcomed me to sit in one of the chairs that share their place of peaceful, cool, shady and interesting territory. It is always comfortable under this huge apple tree that shades this spot. My yard has always been my escape from boredom from inside. I am now facing the reality of not being able to enjoy this little heaven much longer this summer. No more grilling steaks, or hamburgers that always made Chuck, and I smack our lips. I've always been one of those who think about having to give something up long before it happens. That makes the dull days much longer, and harder to endure. Why do we rush up the blah season instead of making every minute of happy time count? I think we are too anxious to get it over, and start back to watching the birds, and touching the flowers. I am anxious to lose that constant fear of being caught on the highway in a blizzard. I have always been a, never take a chance, kind of person. My husband always said it doesn't cost any more to run your car on a full tank of gas instead of a half tank. My dad always told us children to never go near the water till we learned how to swim. All seven of us never learned to swim, and we never wanted to learn. To this day the bathtub is the deepest water I ever risk my live in. With all this being said is it any wonder after nearly seven years I still leave alone? I have too many, what if's, in my part of any contract I might sign. I lived with my husband for 64 years, and I doubt there was ever a day that I wasn't challenged, but we always worked through our differences. He made sure I could live without him financially, although he told the doctor he was ready to go, but he hated to leave me. I believe he was the winner.


I spent an hour talking to one of my sisters this morning on the telephone. I spent another hour talking to my daughter, and about thirty minutes talking to a sister in Albuquerque. What a blessing to have these lovely gals in my life to talk seriously with. I live far away from all of them, but thank God for affordable telephone rates. I may live alone, but I'm but a call away from many friends, and loved ones. Of course one of my sons lives just a mile from me. He never married, so he has no family of his own. But like me he has lots of friends, and affordable telephone service. We share a lot of good memories, and he helps me eat the good food I cook. My many friends are always ready to help me if they are ever needed. Other than that I am doing fine in my comfort zone with great television service.

"Sunflowers Love The Sun Most Of All"

       A late comer to my dying sunflower. I finally see a butterfly 8-16-2019 Perryton, TX
 

I have watched all summer for a butterfly. I've seem less than a half of dozen. Today when I was looking at my dying flowers, I saw this butterfly eating away on the big dying sunflower. It was small, but wasn't about to fly away even when I put the camera right over it. It must have been hungry indeed. There was nothing pretty about it, but just the fact that I finally saw a butterfly eating from my flowers. Last summer long the air was full of beautiful, assorted, colorful butterflies. The seasons do not always produce the same effects. I believe the Word tells us that we are not suppose to know the mysteries of God. We are God's children, and we ask no questions. But since He is our Heavenly Father we know that He loves us whoever we are. We are half way through August, and the heat is still horrific. It sure makes you want to stay inside. I did go to the Center today for lunch, but hurried home to enjoy my cool, comfortable spot in front of the television. Outside of writing this blog, my day's work is about over. When the mood hits me I will return to my painting, hopefully tomorrow. I hate to get out of my fancy cloths, and into smelly painting cloths. My attitude changes quickly, and my faith starts to slowly disappear. Somehow I always pull out of it, and pride starts to build up again. This is the typical life of an artist.

I get too bored after painting on the same picture for a long time, and want to start another without finishing the one I have going. However, I wonder if the average artist is ever completely satisfied with their work. They keep seeing little details that needs improvement, then usually makes things worse. Could this be because it was the best depiction long before you started to change things? My son has told me several times “you have messed it up now. It did look like them before you changed it.” But somehow I thought the portrait should be more like a photo instead of a painting. I need the reassurance of my instructor, but he has been deceased many years now. I love, love, to paint portraits of my interest, and I will keep working at it even if I spend years getting them finished.

I would not undress out of my fancy clothes if I had someone to go out with this evening to eat. I could ask someone, but on the spur of the minute most people would say,
“I can't now.” I am guilty of that, so I understand. I need to put that bit of pleasure on my creative list right away. And make it a more often, but planned event. Funny how I am just now thinking that it would be a good thing to do when others have thought about it long ago. I may be slow, but positive when I do get serious about something.

God Bless

"The Comforting Angel Is Standing By"

 Good-bye summer, hello fall. Not official, but my flowers declare it. 8-15-2019 Perryton, TX
 
The last of my spring, and summer is in this post. So sad, but do have hopes of another beautiful spring, and summer next year. I have tons of clean-up work to do, but will be taking plenty of time to do it. Not till snow falls will I be trapped inside. I have had a good year, although I did loose a special, luck denied, but fighter for something better, nephew at just 50 years old. It seemed as though the harder he tried to overcome bad luck the more trouble he got into. He finally developed lung cancer, and it was too late for treatment to help. He left this life still fighting to keep living. He was loved by many, but had hurt many because of his failure to fulfill his responsibility to stay, "trouble free.” There must be a name for people like this, but I haven't found it yet. He made demands, but was not able to pay for his demands. I believe this was a fear he possessed, and the fear was so great till he would fight to not let something happen. This bad image of him did not stop people from loving him enough to do almost anything to meet his demands. I pray that God was understanding, and made things as light for him as possible.


Anyone who is listening to the news today can agree that the world is becoming possessed with mentally ill people. There is no need to try and understand the situation, because nothing is going to stop the evil that has infested our lives. The only one who knows the reason for such sickness is God, and He is allowing it to happen, is my honest belief. This world belongs to Him, and He is in control. One thing we can know for sure, God is a just God, and He will not let His people suffer if they are trusting Him. We can proclaim His Word, and pray forever for evil to disappear, but it will never happen until Jesus comes back to earth to take His children out of it. If He desires the mentally sick will just keep getting sicker, and that is a hard fact to swallow. No, God did not say He would not let His people suffer the consequences of others, but He said He would not put more on them than they were able to stand. I have seen this happen so many times. Tears may flow, and grief may be great, but when we have had enough God sends His healing angels to comfort us. We can then continue to move on with our lives. Memories will never leave us whether good or bad, but both are for our own happiness. Satan cannot take that away from us. Neither can he use them to keep us down, although he does try hard to do so. Whatever it takes to stay positive, do it for Jesus sake.


God Bless

"Friend Or Stalker"

I think I'm being stalked, This looks like the same bird that starred at me yesterday at Chuck's house. I posted that bird thinking he was very friendly, but now today I think he is at my house. 8-14-2019 Perryton, TX
 
I walked outside awhile ago and sit down for a few minutes to observe the new appearances since yesterday. I immediately saw a large, clear, plastic ball with writing, and pictures covering it. There are no children living close to me, so my first thought was where did it come from? Afraid to touch it because of all the evil things I've been reading about explosives being put in water bottles, and other objects then being thrown in peoples yards, only to explode when they are picked up to be thrown in the trash. I did take a picture, but a second after I sat down I would swear this same bird that starred at me yesterday at Chuck's house immediately landed right in front of me. Stalker? Well Chuck lives a mile from me, so what else could you call it. Anyway I changed the picture I was going to post, and posted the stalker. Some might say I'm trying to get my children to worry about me, but not really. I just think they need a big laugh. It runs in our family. But, it isn't altogether crazy because it is a fact that unheard of things are now being heard of. At least it keeps us on our toes. We are living in changing times. I have to go over my, “to do list,” at least twice every night before I go to bed. I've been known to leave the door unlocked. I would rather be positive, than hopeful.


How can I post such gloomy stories, yet be so happy, and have such great expectations? Because I trust my God, and that is what He told me to do. A fact is a fact, but God's trump card is winner over all. If I ever have to use it, it's in my hand. I have had to use it many times, and always to my advantage. I may always be expressing fear, and doubt, but I always know I have that trump card in my hand.


I used most of my time today doing what I love best. Painting with oil to deliver my heart, and soul. Pretty, and real, are my two most loved subjects. Real faces with real personalities are number one. I put a part of me in each one that no one can ever take away. Pretty is the natural art work of God. He also put a part of Himself in every thing He created. I like to copy His beautiful land with trees, streams, mountains, skies, oceans, flowers, birds, animals, sea creatures, and all other forms of creation by that great Master Artist. Years ago my art instructor taught us that most people of any intellect at all could look at our art work, and describe the feelings of our mind. I put him to the test on that, and to my surprise he read my mind perfectly. I have never forgotten that. He has long been deceased, but I wish so many times I could ask him questions still.

"Who Can Be Less Harmless Than A Bird Of Paradise"

Everywhere I go the birds welcome me. This one chose to sit in a dead tree trunk so I could see him good. Chuck's birds are more friendly than mine.  8-13-2019 Perryton, TX

I sat on a bench in Chuck's front yard today, and birds began to appear from every direction. I had trouble trying to decide which bird to post. The one in the dead tree stump seemed the most interested in me. He strutted around for several minutes obliviously posing for his picture to be made. Another bird landed a few feet in front of where I was sitting, and paced back and forth for several minutes. He was a large black bird with a long tail. He might get his picture put on tomorrow. I am thinking that Chuck's birds are more friendly than mine. It was another hot day, but a nice cool breeze made it comfortable to sit under the trees. With all the evil, and violent protests going on all around the world, I am so thankful for peace and quite here in our little community. However, I don't know how long it will be that way. I hear on the news now that since the wicked Democrats can't control President Trump they have decided to go after his supporters. Supposedly they are building camps to lock the Trump supporters up, and I would not doubt that at all. That would mean we are getting closer to the biblical term of the Armageddon war. The final war that will be fought against our government and God. I believe this might even be the time one will chose to either take the mark of the beast, or starve to death. I know this is not a good subject to talk about, but the action going on in the world today is a pretty sure sign that this bible prophesy is being fulfilled at this time. Let us be in constant prayer for our loved ones who have not made peace with God.


I will not dwell on this horrible coming event, but I must mention it from time to time. People need to know, and make plans for that great, and notable day. By faith we will be spared some of the worst kind of treatment. Until such time comes, let us be content, and keep the faith. For God is not the Arthur of confusion, but of peace as in all churches of the Saints. Corinthians 14:33 KJV. We cannot be exempt from this coming time by our good works. It takes the sincere heart who believes in Jesus Christ, and asks for forgiveness for sins. A sincere heart will not forget that priceless gift of salvation, and will follow God's Word daily as best they possible can. Jesus life is the perfect example for us to follow. No other way but His way. I for one want to be a teacher of His Word. Reason being, Jesus asked, “how can people hear without a teacher?” I was taught, and I want to teach others. We still have the bible with us, but that may not always be, according to my understanding of the Word. We must hide the Word of God in our hearts.

"Seriously Thinking About Moving On"

Seriously thinking about moving on. Just thinking now about a sweet child I saw at the Center today.  8-12-2019 Perryton, TX
 
I had such a good night's sleep last night till I had trouble this morning getting myself to get up and go. I had several things on my schedule for today, but the lazy bones decided to take over. I did make it to the Center for lunch, then to the grocery store, but when I got home my mind was feeling blank. I kept thinking about the little 7 year old girl who came with her grandmother to the Center today. She starting preforming for us as soon as she got there. It was obvious that she was a trained cheer leader who used her sweater for a baton and she couldn't have done better if she had of had a baton. It was quite entertaining, and she stole a lot of hearts. She also watched for people who had finished their lunch, and was quickly there to take their dishes to the kitchen. One of my friends sitting at our table took a dollar out of her purse to leave for the little performer/server, and several followed suite. When I left the Center this child was sitting on the floor by the hall that led out. She was counting her money. She was not a child of a needy family . She was simply exercising her ability to make her own money, although I do not think that was her intentions. She was just a lively child who had to stay busy. I know another little 5 year old girl who had that same attitude, and put up a lemonade stand in her driveway. She was such an ambitious little girl, and it stayed with her even to now, seventeen years later. She graduated from college early, and is now working in a corporate office for a large company making a super good salary.


Honesty, and hard work is still paying off for those who are serious. It may seem like all good things are over for America, but not so. God knows the pure heart, and He will send angels to deliver the desires of that heart. Past, future, now, and forever. Fear, and doubt are the two most used tools Satan uses. Do not listen to him, and show him how you have sent him away with a flash of lightening. The bible says “A little child shall lead them,” Take notice to that fact, and stop looking for adult wisdom, unless it has originated from God Almighty. “Believe in God, and Him only. Man was born to fail, but God cannot, and will not fail. If anyone fails it's us, not God, or best friends, or anyone else who are in the human flesh. The sooner we learn, and accept that, the happier we will be. Don't be one of those who is always blaming someone else for their mistakes. After we reached the age of accountability, we will answer to God for what we do with our lives. It's never to late to learn, although we may have lost many years of wonderful blessings.

"Beauty Without The Beast Please"

            My friend has a most beautiful Crape Myrtle bush. Love it. 8-12019 Perryton. TX

I am posting one of the most beautiful Crape Myrtle bushes I ever saw. One of my friends owns it, and I don't think there is another one in town that would compare with hers. I have had one for several years, and it never grows, or makes much of a bloom. This Crape Myrtle I have posted has two colors, red, and purple. And they both are coming from the same bush. It looks like a giant flower arrangement. Next spring I am going to pamper mine to the hilt. I am determined to get it to start growing, and making pretty blooms. My friend does have a special, magic touch when it comes to raising flowers, but I am fixing to have one also. We have had an extremely hot summer, and no one's flowers have been doing well. A few minutes ago I backed my car out of the garage, and the gauge showed 103 degree. I don't know how hot it was in the sun since my outside thermometer hangs on the porch always in the shade. We are needing rain badly.


All I have done today is fix lunch for my son, and spent several hours painting. I got tired of watching the news since all it was about is the sex ring-master that supposedly hung himself in jail. It is being said that many high-ranking politicians, and other high profile figures were determined to kill this pedophile before he had a chance to spill the beans on them. It has caused a very bitter war of words, and the US Attorney General has vowed to get to the bottom of it. It remains a great mystery how he could have hung himself since he was suppose to be on 24-7 suicide watch. The President was more concerned about him being murdered than committing suicide. Many believe he did have outside help, or at least help within the jail walls, to kill himself. It is a very suspicious happening to say the least. More and more we are seeing Satan get away with his wicked acts of corruption. We ask ourselves when will God say enough is enough. Who knows, His plan may be to bring judgment on them Himself instead of waiting for our justice system to finally convict them. This may be a bigger, and longer prison sentencing than the United States can control.


I have said before and I will say it again, I believe hell has already opened it gates, and we all are having to live partly in the crowd. That should make us more determined to keep our armor white. I certainly want to be in that number when the Saints go marching in. Money won't mean anything any more, and we all will be living like Kings, and Queens. What a switch from the way we lived on earth. It will be worth it all.


God Bless

"Depart From Me Ye Workers Of Iniquity"

Nothing like a pair of love birds. Just talking, and enjoying each others company. 8-10-2019 Perryton, TX
These two birds are enjoying each other as they clearly are talking, and possibly catching up on the news. I watched them for a good while, and they stayed together longer than I've ever seen birds stay in one place. It made me lonesome to watch two love birds having such a good time. I'm sure their babies are grown up now, and have left the nest. I have heard, and I think it's true, that once birds mate they stay together for life. Next breeding season they will have new babies, and life goes on for them like God planned it. Nature is a life creating process that God made for everything that lives, whether human, animal, or seed sown in the grown. What a great, and wonderful world the Master of life gave us. So sad that the human race has decided to change God's plan for His people, and make their own plan. From this day on I see a troubled world which will get worse by the day. I believe the scripture will soon be fulfilled that says before the end of time people will be praying for the mountains to fall on them. This life will be just that unbearable. Do we have anything to look forward to? I believe nothing but the fact that we will be going to a better place to live through out eternity. We must trust God, and endure till our name is called for that great, and final day.

In spite of all the bad news, and the knowledge of nothing getting better, I am very happy, and contented with who I am. I truly enjoy just a cup of coffee with a friend. The friends I have are fool prof, and I would not have any other kind. I have some loved ones who have not been put in the firing pot yet, therefore they are not fool prof. Sorry to say I cannot trust them with my life. They must be refined to face a strong enemy such as we have in our presence today. You can find them in our schools, in our churches, yes, I mean that, in our civic clubs, and anywhere else we might be found. I will not say I just love people who are not subject to differ from my observation, because God gave us love for everyone. But I am saying be ye as wise as a serpent, and as harmless as a dove. Matthew 10:16 KJV. A serpent isn't harmless, but they are very wise. Let us be a wise, harmless child of God that will always trust Him. I am aware that anywhere I go any more could be a death trap. We see it happening every day, but with God as my protector, I am not afraid. Of course He expects us to use the wisdom He gave us. Don't pick up that snake just because God said He is our buckler, and our shield. A fool you would surly be. I have seen this very thing happen, and the fool got bitten and died. It has been news on television, and I've heard it through out my life. Do not tempt God.

"The Incredible Four"

Thought everyone needed a good laugh today. Some of my incredible family as seen by me. 8-9-2019 Perryton, TX
 
I got my first big smile on this family portrait yesterday. I usually don't let my unfinished work be seen by anyone, but my computer technician noticed this one on the easel as he was leaving. I had left to go get money to pay him. When I came back I saw him smiling ever so big at my unfinished portrait. He told me it was very good while still smiling. I didn't realize how much it can help when you see someone looking at your painting that don't know you are watching them. I am ready now to put the finishing touches to it. This portrait was intended for a memory of a great, enjoyable trip by my son, and his family, I am calling it the “The Incredible Four.” My daughter-in-law who is the one sticking her tongue out, asked me to paint this portrait for them. My grandson, with the ever so important look on his face, is the largest face on the canvas. My beautiful granddaughter, and son in the back are still unfinished, and it will be hard to disguise these two according to the snapshot I'm painting from. They are posing as more serious than beautiful, and handsome. I must make it real as to their feelings at the time. I love these children, and will always believe there are no better people in the world.

I am staying home from the luncheon at the Center today because I don't eat shrimp. I was raised in a home that believed the only sea food that was eatable was fish. To make it stick with us we were told that shrimp was the tails of a big crawdad. We children caught crawdads in our yard every time it came a big rain and filled the holes with water. We would never thought about eating them. And as for oysters, they were the butt holes of something that never developed any other part of their body. I suppose if fish had not been mentioned so many times in the bible, that sea food would be nasty too. I never fed my own family anything but fish that lived in or around water. But somehow after they grew up they are great lovers of most all kinds of sea food. I feel so blessed that in my life time I have had a choice of many meats without having to eat the unclean as my dad, and mother saw it. I think I would gag if I knew I had swallowed a piece of shrimp. Of course being the wise person I am, I'm sure I have swallowed not only shrimp, but possible many other kinds of nasty meat, that I wasn't aware of. Thank God for keeping many secrets from me. I am 86 and have always had a good stomach. Until recently I never had to take a rolaid, or any kind of indigestion medicine. I still don't very often. No answer for that blessing.

God Bless

I ate my first peach from Chuck's tree today. It was extra good. I decided to start caring more for his fruit trees, and I put two hours into pampering them. The apple tree didn't bear apples this year, but I think it was because we didn't take care of it. A huge elm tree had grown up beside the apple tree, and it had taken over the growth of it. I sawed the elm down today, but it was hard not to cut the apple tree since they were so close together. The poor little apple tree had been rooted out of shape, and was almost lying on the ground. I fertilized both fruit trees, and gave them a good watering. When I go back over neat Tuesday I will drive a stake in the ground, and force the apple tree to pull back while tying it securely to the stake. I expect it to be fairly straight by next spring. Nothing can hinder it's growth, and the fertilize will help it to grow faster. I enjoyed my day even though it was very hot. I rested under a shade tree often with a nice cool breeze chilling me. I keep a chair under that tree, and use it a lot. I'm looking forward to some delicious, fresh peach pies in a few days.

Our country is still rocking with hate, and a fighting bunch of evil, would-be take-overs, from within our own people. 670 illegals were captured yesterday in Kentucky, and the left has gone completely off the deep end. They are losing their voters by the hundreds, I am so glad our President Trump is not letting up on his promises to “drain the swamp.” He has been beaten up more than any human I have ever seen, yet he keeps hanging in. This should be enough to prove to everyone, that he has the help of a Super Power. People keep dying by no fault of their own, but that is what happens when evil becomes over powering. We will continue to see more of it, but those innocent lives are not dying in vain. The enemy killers are being taken out also. It spells Civil War in a big way. Thank God for the brave ones who put their lives on the line every day for God, and country. I hope I see them all in the new Heaven getting their rewards handed to them by the Great Master Himself. I don't want to see the rewards being given to those who turned their backs on God. It will be a sad day, and a positive day of rejection by the Great Creator. I just look forward to the promise that tells us in the bible, that our tears will be wiped away forever. I can't even imagine. It must be a day of rejoicing that never ends. I am ready for such a time as that. A few more days here on earth, and then we shall see Jesus.

If I Could I Would Sign This

Absolutely shocked to see these five faces in this cloud last evening. There may be more, but five are destintesly visible. 8-7-2019 Perryton, TX

My I phone was telling me severe thunderstorms were fixing to hit Perryton in a few minutes last evening. I went out on my front porch to watch the clouds, and guess what I saw. Right in front of me was this huge white cloud with undoubtedly five very visible faces showing in a close gathering. My first thought was OMG there are the faces in the Black Hills of South Dakota carved on the rock of Mount Rushmore. There are only four president's faces on that rock, but I saw at least five, and maybe more in this cloud I was looking at. The president's that have so proudly been hewed  on those rocks are Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt, and Lincoln. They have been chosen to represent the nation's growth, development, and preservation respectively. The sculptor, Gutzon Borglum, created the design, and oversaw the projects execution from 1927 to 1941 with the help of his son, Lincoln Borglum. I have seen this National Shrine of Democracy several times being that I lived in Montana for a year. We made several trips back to Oklahoma, and Texas going through the Black Hills each time. Those Presidential heads were seemingly within a short walking distance, although the amazing fact is they were probably several miles from the highway.

I have heard it suggested that President Donald Trump might get his face put there beside the other chosen National Icons. Could that possible be why I see five faces in this cloud? I don't know if I am dreaming or not, but here is the picture I took last night. The five faces are clearly seen centered within the cloud. Then there was another thought that struck my mind. The Bible tells us Jesus is coming back to earth in a cloud. I tried to pick His face out, but could not, because after all no one has  ever taken a picture of  the real Jesus. All the pictures we have seen of Jesus are someone's  own Idea of Him. This cloud didn't loose it's shape quickly, and I stared at it for a good while. I will have something to think about for quite some time. God knows I am ready to see more signs, and wonders, and when I see more I will pass them on to you. About the only desire I have left in life is to occupy till Jesus comes. He does help me to find ways to do that. I love my life, and I love my family and friends. In my dreams I see them all finding sweet peace, and joy just as I have, before it's too late. God answers prayer, and He hears that prayer from me every night. I am seeing miracles beginning to happen within my own family. I am so full of things I would like to say, but my blogs just allow 500 words, by my own decision. I have a real dozy sitting on the back burner, hope God lets me post that one soon.

God Bless
