Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Still no Garrison today, duchess………………..
??? – He posted on Page 1, Bet !!! 😄
Hi there, Flo❣️
Didn’t see your reply to Besty till after my repost of Garrison’s.
Hi, Patty – * Giggling * Here – FLO – How you ??? 🙃
Patience; that virtue, is trying to falter.
Finding (yes finding) my own mental zone while maintaining required attention to my beloved Ma is challenging -today.
Nothing a shared coffee to dunk a couple small bisccoti in won’t cure however.
-How you?
Sad – for my friend and her family – got hit really hard past few weeks !!!
As for you – Remember this – Mkay ???
PATIENCE is a VIRTUE
A VIRTUE is a GRACE
Put ’em both together (with coffee and biscotti – lol)
And you get a HAPPY FACE !!!
😄 – You know what I say –
Be GOOD – and if you cannot be GOOD – BE BETTER !!!
🧡 🧚🏻♀️ 🧡 🧚🏻♀️ 🧡
Duchess,
So sorry about your friend’s loses; really.
Been praying off n on for them.
✝️

You ‘High Pants’ are slipping, Bet !!! 🙃

Patience in name, patience by nature for your beloved Ma. We are with you in spirit, which I devoutly hope you know.💕 plus 💕

Reply to Marti
. . .( gun, pocket knife, and dog treats) . . . Marti, darlin’, you are after my own heart! 🙂
Yesterday, I’d grabbed my NRA hat off the stack. Didn’t really pay attention to which hat I’d selected, so I was initially surprised at the responses I got. The hat is dark colored while the “NRA” letters are also dark colored so the visual image is pretty discrete. Still—this being Texas, after all—just wearing that very understated hat never fails to generate positive commentary.
-He’s been here earlier
Hi, Bet. Sorry I’ve been out of pocket . . . I sent you a post earlier but it apparently did an ascii walkabout—don’t know what happened. My lack of visibility was caused by having to deal with a bed-bug infestation—the time I usually post music was the exact time the damned bugs were active. So I was bug huntin’ instead of listening to music.
I think I’ve gotten the problem stopped so things can get back to normal. I’m a creature of habit so I didn’t like any of this, not at all. Damned bugs! 🙂
Oh phew…..for some reason, I’m not focused today, dear friend. I mean reeeeally not. There are some days like that, though thankfully few and far between. As long as you’re here (even if I’m not, if you see what I mean), life is good.😘👍🏻
Thought of you and your bug problem, Garrison. We have a rat problem, and I was wondering which was worse, yours or ours.
We have no idea where they are coming from but they have chewed a hole in our eaves and are able to get into the attic over time and we simply can’t have that!!
This is a common issue where we are. Odious creatures. But repairs were done today and myriad traps set with peanut butter and carrots.
I am so sorry about those horrid creatures you are dealing with, and I pray you have dealt with it successfully. But if not…Exterminator?
Like you, I am a creature of habit and routine. And like you it upsets my inner peace if I am thrown off. So you and I really are true birds of a feather, right??🤗😉💕
If you have a pier-and-beam house that means that you might give rats a vacation home. We have populations of roof-rats that like to come visit from a couple of local restaurants . . . Here’s what I found works: I like to use the large old fashioned rat-traps. Peanut butter and carrots are good. Something that I was surprised about but works exceptionally well is Tomcat Rodent Repellent. I was dubious about it until I tried it. Rats really hate that smell. Used it in my garage—no rats. But finally . . . I’ve learned over the years to regularly check for openings appearing mysteriously and ramdomly in the house’s perimeter skirting. These are often caused by raccoons. I now seal the opening with thick chicken wire and industrial strength staples.
Yeah, the bed-bugs were/are an unpleasant surprise. Now that I’ve apparently gotten rid of living bugs, I’m waiting to see if unknown and hidden nests are going to hatch. Watch this space. 🙂
Bet – PLEASE – I asked for PRAYERS – A ONE-TIME PRAYER REQUEST – under Stevie’s Warrior Post !!!
PLEASE PRAY FOR THIS FAMILY – THANKS !!! ❤️❤️❤️
Yes!!!! Absolutely, sweet prayerful friend. On my way a back to check now🙏🏻💕
THANKS !!! 😄
Read your post and praying.
Your a good man GP
Do what we can right
We can pray
THANKS, GRAMPS !!! 💙
The Flight into Egypt-Nicolis Poussi
Psalm 25:2-9
To you, O Lord, I lift my soul.
In you I trust; let me not be put to shame,
let not my enemies exult over me.
No one who waits for you shall be put to shame;
those shall be put to shame who heedlessly break faith. R.
To you, O Lord, I lift my soul.
Your ways, O Lord, make known to me;
teach me your paths,
Guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my savior.
To you, O Lord, I lift my soul.
Remember that your compassion, O Lord,
and your kindness are from of old.
In your kindness remember me,
because of your goodness, O Lord.
To you, O Lord, I lift my soul.
Good and upright is the Lord;
thus he shows sinners the way.
He guides the humble to justice,
he teaches the humble his way.
To you, O Lord, I lift my soul.

BREAKING: DOJ prosecutor discussed Federal Judgeship promotion for the lawyer of a Trump witness if they agreed to testify against him
This allegation of prosecutorial misconduct is being adjudicated in secret court proceedings
How corrupt can this get?
Secret? You mean as with every tyrannical, depostic, evil regime throughout time? In this case, history does indeed repeat.
I fear a lot more, soldier. Like you I look in the barrel and realize with incredulity and horror that we haven’t seen the bottom yet.
Thought I’d the “WOW!!!!” factor to our day! Found this elsewhere, had to share.😊
wow – amazing detail in the iris and the blue feather circle just down and right from the eye
all God’s creatures …
All God’s creatures is exactly what I thought, too, nim.
I studied it closely, lest it be a painting…and yes I have seen paintings which were so lifelike that even after looking, I couldn’t tell.
He must have had some paints of all hues leftover and chose this splendid chap to receive them all.
And yes again!! His eye and surround o g area is what caught my attention as well, my friend. Just mesmerizing and spectacular!!
Now that’s a Wednesday Warrior bird~!

– it worked, Besty.
JUST BECAUSE
THE TALE OF MISCHIEVOUS MIKE
There once was a mischievous boy named Mike
Whose antics in Bible class took a spike
The girls in class would all giggle with glee
Because quite the entertainer was he
Little did the teacher suspect or know
When to the chalkboard she would turn and go
That her hair would be littered and glittered
With spitballs from a low straw embittered
To laugh out loud literally engaged
On the Bible teacher perfectly staged
Not at all amused was she to remain
She’ll end the muse her composure regain
Mike quit spitting but continued the ruse
There were other frivolities he could use
Faces and places the noises all fit
To keep the class in stitches swiftly lit
Now the Bible teacher no fool was she
Twas not that she was unable to see
There is a reason a class clown arises
To a Godly teacher no surprises
She was patient and kind did not explode
Nor was she a person to easily implode
She took the beating and smiled at him
His chances of winning were getting slim
At the end of class she made assignments
For the next class and the requirements
Mischievous Mike got the hardest of all
An essay/speech from the Bible ’bout Saul
The question would he be up to the task
Was this assignment way too much to ask
Did she go too far with the punishment
Was it worse for him than the government
Do not feel bad for this wee little lad
God knew him well and the gifts that he had
You can bet the teacher knew him as well
Not her first rodeo that one could tell
The big day arrived as it was meant to be
Would Mike step up to the plate let us see
A remarkably well-planned paper/speech
A round of applause that was beyond reach
God really does work in mysterious ways
He knows the reason for mischievous plays
All to be revealed on the last day of class
Poured out with tears flowing out en masse
You’re the best teacher I have ever had
And what I must tell you makes me sad
We are moving and I will not be back
I have to get home and begin to pack
Another thing I think you should know
Is I am just baggage they take in tow
They really don’t want me I’m a mistake
But they are stuck with me and must take
His parents were talking he heard them say
He was a mistake they’d not planned away
The teacher smiled and hugged him close
God makes no mistakes and that he shows
Why are you so smart and above the rest
Because God gave you gifts you passed the test
Have you ever thought why He made you this way
Cause He knew you would care for them someday
This is our secret between you and me
That someday soon you will grow up to be
A man who can care for others around
And not just a man who will be a clown

Dance to the Music of Time-Nicolas Poussin
duchess
your poems of two today are like this artwork by Poussin
they are priceless
i cant help but wonder ?
are the two perhaps related
you are a true treasure
thank you for being you
💚
you
💚
Never thought of them as being related – two different times – but I can see what you mean – 💚
We all have a tendency to wonder why are we here – what does God want us to do – can you relate ???
Most of my life – I have known what God wanted me to do with my life – no matter what job I have had – I ended up doing what God wanted me to do – He guided me to where He wanted me to do it – to do what He wanted me to do –
Does that make sense ??? You have been many places – were you doing what God wanted you to do ???
Thanks for your kind post !!! 💚🌼💚🌼💚
Very good. 🤧
True Story, Patience !!! 🙁
Is he still a kid or growed up?
Grown – Dunno where he is, tho’ – But I am sure God blessed him – 😄
Sure would be somethin if Mike is at least a lurker here and reads your writing.
-Sure would be somethin
Sure would be – Yes – LOL 😄
Amen and Amen
Amen.
Thanks you for the change for the prayer for Pastor Pawlowski in response to last night’s discussion. You are doing great work Mom!
Thank you, Andeclain. You have helped me so much.
