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 †

Enjoy.
Morning Betsy… really enjoyed back in day entertainment 🤣🤣👍
🌹😘👍
🇺🇸💪😀👍
And I did as well. Those were the days all right👍🏻
The opening credits in this video show some truly iconic images of the “old” Austin. Sadly, it is much changed now due to—and I’m being more than a little ethnocentric here—the influx of people from California who sadly brought their culture with them—and changed the “old” Austin forever..
These images are from a time when Austin felt like a small Texas town despite being the capital of Texas. I was blessed to live there during that that time. There’s an image briefly shown of “Huts”. This was a traditional Texas bar. It was a place you had to experience and was something you’d never really forget. Wonderful place. Great burgers. Ice cold beer. Nice people. How I miss the old Austin. How lucky I was to experience it when it was “real”. Enjoy, Treeper friends. . . 🙂
I liked the bars where you walked and it looked like a regular bar, but then you walked through a entryway into an outdoor scene with lights and music and dancing like you’ve never seen. Gals being wisked around the floor like magic! It was magic.
This is what I remember from about 1976-1978 when I lived in Dallas. Now, I have a cabin in Twin Lake, MI and we have a similar bar called “The Ef’n Inn” just down the road. They have a ways to go, but are on the right track.
Regards
Remember well, being a college girl in Dallas, “…being wisked around the floor like magic ! “, ca. 1977-1981. Never with one of the college boys. Always a real Texas cowboy doing the magic.
Singular life experience. Indeed, “It was magic.”
🫠I know what you mean.
Had my first Texas 2step in Nashville in 1980 with a Texan. Mm mm mmm
-It’s still like a dream come true; as you said, “magic”!
Good morning Patience! ❤️
That reminds me that it’s been a long time since Busy Lizzie and I have been out dancing. There was a dance hall outside of Johnson City called Dead Ed’s. It belonged to Ed but he died so the name. It was BYOB but they had cold beer just in case.
What’s in a name… ha!
Pa, The kitchen floor is a great place to swoon-dance.
Put on some music, and sway.💞
My in-laws thrived on dancing at the various what they called “honky tonks” in the small central Texas towns which surrounded theirs. They had a couple friend they went with every weekend. And they did dress kind of spiffily. Put what they called “sneakies” in my mother in law’s commodious handbag and off they went.
Hi Gramps! Patience says you can put on a tune and sway in the kitchen- no bar necessary!
Here’s my fav all-time slow dance song.
Now need to get hubs out of his chair… 😂😂😂
What a pick, Della❣️❣️❣️
One widdle glass o Champaign -or other; that brings on going electric-
or coffee, tea or water
-no matter where….
when that song comes on, heart be still
-it’s swoon-dance time.
😁😂😜
I KNOW … love to hear it – takes me right back, ya know?!!
🙂
jinx! swoon tunes. sigh.
Dancin in the kitchen
only requires
music that moves ya and a state of mind
partnered or alone!
Hello, JWoo hooooo❣️
You already know that💞
I did my fair share of Cowboy Cha Cha’s in my youth under Neon Moons
Mmmmmmm swoooooon
Better rendition
Ya know, yearning can do funny thangs.
Sometimes make believe can be good; even if it’s kinda … almost bad.
Hind sight bein 20/20
still can’t take away the ‘good’
-especially after lots of time has passed.
Was a hippie who didn’t dance much . . . If only I’d known . . . sigh 🙂
I taught my science nerdy type male roommate in the whiles of stacked jeans and crisp pressed shirts. Sigh. Warm Texas summer nights… the best brightest stars… and 💃 🕺 all night long into the wee hours. Best time ever.
🤔
-😜
I’d a got you to dance, my man Garrison; honest.
-You coulda just
hippie-stand
there
…. and before you knew it, your toes woulda been tapping. Honest ❣️
🙂
Awww, Della. Love the idea of you dancing with your beau. Swoon.
Yeah … been dreaming about those earlier days … wanna go back…😭😭
The wayback door is right over there . . . just around a corner . . . 🙂
🤗🤗🤗😁
I’m going to vote that there’s dancing in Heaven
Who knows?! Maybe – King David danced for the Lord.
If there is, it certainly won’t be like those dance moves we’ve known on earth….🤔🤔
Right there with you❣️
If there isn’t
-I won’t be let in.
🙂
🙂
🙂
Clint Eastwood had a bar like that in Carmel. CA.. no longer his. It had an outdoor patio with outdoor fireplaces and live edge redwood tables. A totally amazing place to spend an afternoon.
🙂
Good for you 🙂
Morning, Garrison😊 What a difference between then and now…
Mornin’ Bet. Every time I find myself in Austin now, I immediately get the feeling that I’ve been teleported to LA. Sigh.
Re: “bringing their culture with them . . .” Most new arrivals, people who intentionally “left” California, are completely unaware that they bring taken-for-granted attitudes and expectations that can alter the cultural landscape new place they’ve moved to. Anthropology refers to this process as “acculturation”.
More like San Francisco.
30 some years ago it was still lovely… clean… beautiful; most anywhere in Cal.
18 years ago? Uh, change was taking hold.
15 years ago?
Not interested in ever going there; was gettin dirty and waaay too edgy.
-sadly
Yep. The more progressive the government—the more 3rd World the country becomes. Guaranteed poverty.
I believe it, my friend. And isn’t it an awful shame? They leave/escape because what they voted for back home ruined everything, and then load it all up to take to infest where they land next.
This is spot on!! 😂😂😂 Courtesy of the Babylon Bee
“Moving Day”
“The Cookout”
“The Gun Range”
The backyard cookout vid was awesome. Thank you. still laughing.
I nearly was unable to get up off the floor😂😂😂
Truth has no agenda
-Too dang funny how !
Shows how mindless and self oppressing some people are willing to be.
I just want to grab some by the shoulders and shake them, all the while shouting, “WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU!! WAKE UP!!!”
But I’m too short…more’s the pity…
I moved back to California 20 years ago. Plenty of people here make fun of idiots who talk/act like that– to their faces.
This is a “yuge” state. Lots of agriculture and small towns. Trump has a large MAGA support group in Beverly Hills — of all places.
I did think the picnic video was funny. However, the fact that there are real idiots like that –makes me cringe.
Having said that, I will not step foot in S.F. or L.A. Both places are destroyed for me.
I lived in a suburb of Houston when my kids were little. I haven’t been back. I imagine that it is pretty awful now, also.
My youngest is in Magnolia. That’s as close to Houston as I want to see her.
Lived in Montrose in the 60’s. It was becoming rough even back then. Houston can be a tough town.
Yes, and San Diego too. Monterey isn’t far behind. I have family all over the state.
Carry around a large print of yer yuk face
– n kick em GENTLY in the knees!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
🤭
Oh my gosh!😂😂😂😂😂 Now I’ve got a picture in my head of myself doing just that!!
Its going to be a job to get rid of it.😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
-🤭
My stomach hurts from laughing.
😂😂😂!!!
Almost as much fun as watching Beth kick-axe and take names on Yellowstone! Thanks, Bet!! 🙂
You’re welcome!!😂
Hilarious…..well done by Babylon Bee and the actors
It really was, GB. I loved the guy at the cookout when asked if he was going after his distraught wife all the while stuffing his face said “Not yet.”
😂😂😂😂😂
Yes. I watched all 5 installments. Funny situations in all five.
Those are a crack up. I do have to say though, the people I know who have moved out of California aren’t anything like those in the videos. All Christian and conservative. There’s 8 of us here in Mississippi and 4 families of friends in Texas. All of us love being free of the craziness of California. I won’t go to even to visit. Just too old for dealing with idjits.
Garrison, Austin is my home town too, Im almost 60 so the 70’s and 80’s were a great time to be in Austin. Its hard to describe the feeling I have for the old Austin where I grew up, so sad. Moved to Liberty Hill and those same changes are starting to reach us way out here.
remember the old Aqua Fest for good music and dancing?
Hi Tim, In past few years, I’ve heard reports of how the city of Austin has changed. And I’m sorry.
My birthplace, Atlanta, GA, has been desecrated- looks like war zone. It breaks my heart.
Of course, we left it behind, moving to rural area. But it’s hard to watch a beautiful city decay.
Fireworks over Town Lake. Watched from the top of a friend’s building. Bunch’a hippies. Halcyon days . . .
Howdy Garrison, good times 🇺🇸🤠🇺🇸
Morning, Mr jay🤗
🤠
Mornin’ jay 🙂 Yes, they were . . . made lifelong friends. Happily most of us are still around . . .
I remember driving with my Mom to Austin from Beaumont to visit my big sister who was at UT. This was in the early 1980’s. It was a big town then, but had that small town feel around campus. It is a crying shame how woke it is now.
Howdy Garrison!

1 Peter 4
14 If you are [e]reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. [f]On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified. 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a [g]busybody in other people’s matters.
16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this [h]matter.
17 For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God? 18 Now
“If the righteous one is scarcely saved,
Where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?”
19 Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator.
Sadly, I cannot help but wonder how far our country is from what is described in Ezekiel 8-9 at this point.
God knows, floraofsolomon. God knows. Love and peace to you.
Mornin’ ‘Woo 🙂
God morning to you, my Garrison, friend!
Well, the USA is certainly become a bed of idolaters, of iniquity. That’s for sure.
These very words, my brother, are printed and mounted to the left of my eyesight above my monitor on my big writing desk hutch. If I may – I back up to include verses 12 and 13.
12 Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. 13 But rejoice insofar as you share Christ’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when His glory is revealed.
Mines from NIV or ESV… don’t remember which. Bless you, and bless us, friend!
Some cool comfort for my Texas friends; wish I could do better:
The Cremation of Sam McGee
BY ROBERT W. SERVICE
There are strange things done in the midnight sun
By the men who moil for gold;
The Arctic trails have their secret tales
That would make your blood run cold;
The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
But the queerest they ever did see
Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
I cremated Sam McGee.
Now Sam McGee was from Tennessee, where the cotton blooms and blows.
Why he left his home in the South to roam ’round the Pole, God only knows.
He was always cold, but the land of gold seemed to hold him like a spell;
Though he’d often say in his homely way that “he’d sooner live in hell.”
On a Christmas Day we were mushing our way over the Dawson trail.
Talk of your cold! through the parka’s fold it stabbed like a driven nail.
If our eyes we’d close, then the lashes froze till sometimes we couldn’t see;
It wasn’t much fun, but the only one to whimper was Sam McGee.
And that very night, as we lay packed tight in our robes beneath the snow,
And the dogs were fed, and the stars o’erhead were dancing heel and toe,
He turned to me, and “Cap,” says he, “I’ll cash in this trip, I guess;
And if I do, I’m asking that you won’t refuse my last request.”
Well, he seemed so low that I couldn’t say no; then he says with a sort of moan:
“It’s the cursèd cold, and it’s got right hold till I’m chilled clean through to the bone.
Yet ’tain’t being dead—it’s my awful dread of the icy grave that pains;
So I want you to swear that, foul or fair, you’ll cremate my last remains.”
A pal’s last need is a thing to heed, so I swore I would not fail;
And we started on at the streak of dawn; but God! he looked ghastly pale.
He crouched on the sleigh, and he raved all day of his home in Tennessee;
And before nightfall a corpse was all that was left of Sam McGee.
There wasn’t a breath in that land of death, and I hurried, horror-driven,
With a corpse half hid that I couldn’t get rid, because of a promise given;
It was lashed to the sleigh, and it seemed to say: “You may tax your brawn and brains,
But you promised true, and it’s up to you to cremate those last remains.”
Now a promise made is a debt unpaid, and the trail has its own stern code.
In the days to come, though my lips were dumb, in my heart how I cursed that load.
In the long, long night, by the lone firelight, while the huskies, round in a ring,
Howled out their woes to the homeless snows— O God! how I loathed the thing.
And every day that quiet clay seemed to heavy and heavier grow;
And on I went, though the dogs were spent and the grub was getting low;
The trail was bad, and I felt half mad, but I swore I would not give in;
And I’d often sing to the hateful thing, and it hearkened with a grin.
Till I came to the marge of Lake Lebarge, and a derelict there lay;
It was jammed in the ice, but I saw in a trice it was called the “Alice May.”
And I looked at it, and I thought a bit, and I looked at my frozen chum;
Then “Here,” said I, with a sudden cry, “is my cre-ma-tor-eum.”
Some planks I tore from the cabin floor, and I lit the boiler fire;
Some coal I found that was lying around, and I heaped the fuel higher;
The flames just soared, and the furnace roared—such a blaze you seldom see;
And I burrowed a hole in the glowing coal, and I stuffed in Sam McGee.
Then I made a hike, for I didn’t like to hear him sizzle so;
And the heavens scowled, and the huskies howled, and the wind began to blow.
It was icy cold, but the hot sweat rolled down my cheeks, and I don’t know why;
And the greasy smoke in an inky cloak went streaking down the sky.
I do not know how long in the snow I wrestled with grisly fear;
But the stars came out and they danced about ere again I ventured near;
I was sick with dread, but I bravely said: “I’ll just take a peep inside.
I guess he’s cooked, and it’s time I looked”; … then the door I opened wide.
And there sat Sam, looking cool and calm, in the heart of the furnace roar;
And he wore a smile you could see a mile, and he said: “Please close that door.
It’s fine in here, but I greatly fear you’ll let in the cold and storm—
Since I left Plumtree, down in Tennessee, it’s the first time I’ve been warm.”
There are strange things done in the midnight sun
By the men who moil for gold;
The Arctic trails have their secret tales
That would make your blood run cold;
The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
But the queerest they ever did see
Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
I cremated Sam McGee.
The short stories of Jack London are also pretty fair tales in my humble estimation. The ones he wrote of the Alaska gold rush makes a body want to bundle up.
I agree. Jack London met Wyatt Earp in the Klondike. I’d love to hear those two swap tales!
A narration but this is supposed to be
Wyatt Earp’s advice on gunfighting and how it was really done in the old west.
Well, said. And thanks 🙂
Good day Garrison and you’re welcome.
🙂
Yep, I love my Westerns but don’t rely on them for authenticity. Like the thing where one special rider can break a horse first try and the rider and horse bond for life. If such a thing could happen the Rodeo would go out of business fast, and Cheyanne Frontier Days would have ended a hundred years ago.
Very interesting talk by a man who actually was there and did the job…Ty .. never heard that before..😀👍
🇺🇸💪😀👍
Thank you. That was very interesting information. Since I have a single action gun I understand what he was talking about with the thumb cocking the hammer and always have the hammer on an empty chamber.
This piece is among the most accessable for the average music lover by Schoenberg. I really have grown to love this over the years. Its not a quick listen though.
Transfigured Night (Verklärte Nacht)Two people walk through a bare, cold grove;
The moon races along with them, they look into it.
The moon races over tall oaks,
No cloud obscures the light from the sky,
Into which the black points of the boughs reach.
A woman’s voice speaks:
I’m carrying a child, and not yours,
I walk in sin beside you.
I have committed a great offense against myself.
I no longer believed I could be happy
And yet I had a strong yearning
For something to fill my life, for the joys of
Motherhood
And for duty; so I committed an effrontery,
So, shuddering, I allowed my sex
To be embraced by a strange man,
And, on top of that, I blessed myself for it.
Now life has taken its revenge:
Now I have met you, oh, you.
She walks with a clumsy gait,
She looks up; the moon is racing along.
Her dark gaze is drowned in light.
A man’s voice speaks:
May the child you conceived
Be no burden to your soul;
Just see how brightly the universe is gleaming!
There’s a glow around everything;
You are floating with me on a cold ocean,
But a special warmth flickers
From you into me, from me into you.
It will transfigure the strange man’s child.
You will bear the child for me, as if it were mine;
You have brought the glow into me,
You have made me like a child myself.
He grasps her around her ample hips.
Their breath kisses in the breeze.
Two people walk through the lofty, bright night.
Protect Our Children
This guy really looks like a drunk. If I was shown a lineup of people and asked who I thought might drink themselves to death, this guy would be my first pick!

Hi Molo! she just wants that hat OFF – bless her heart… and go play!
Thank you, was hoping you would post.
She’s always ready to go, deb😎😊
Good morning all.
What makes a mockingbird sing in the dark of the morn?
One of life’s little mysteries. Can’t possibly be to attract a mate since neither can see to fly. Do mockingbirds have more of the chickenheaded sillyness than other fowl? Who knows and its to early for such musings. Darn thing needs to quieten down so the rest of the world can slumber peacefully!
Gotta try for another forty winks.
I have a whippoorwill, whose call is as loud as a car alarm, that likes to roost near my window a couple nights a week. he likes to get going around 2 am.
Oh boy C.R. that would stand you up in bed.
My wife was raised a city gal and the first time what you describe happened to her she was petrified with fright.
My favorite time of the day, Monti. I love waking just prior to daybreak to hear the birds sing welcome to the sun (son!).
Good morning JWoo. Mornings are the best part of the day. In the Spring you get a concert just at dawn.
I have an old Dominique rooster who tunes up about then. He crows and off in the distance and faint you can hear other roosters reply.
He’s far enough away that when the AC is on he doesn’t wake you in the morning unless you’re already out and about.
I love it! And I love hearing roosters in the morning. Don’t get to where I’m located now – but remember it fondly. Now, we have the birds calling and responding to one another.
In Britain, city people (London) move to the idyllic countryside, then complain vociferously about rooster “noise”… AND CHURCH BELLS RINGING! Yes, they do that.
Some have even filed lawsuits to stop both. Can you imagine?? Tue tragic part is that some courts have actually agreed with them. Church bells silenced.
Now that I think about it, that was the moment Britain’s Christian heritage and culture started rolling downhill. Almost to the bottom now decades after it started.
The ‘Oprah’
(pronounced opera) singers; “me me me”
have no regard.
Fund a mental: self-serving
The last…the VERY LAST thing any person with a modicum of awareness or sense wants to do in Blighty is to move from a large city to the confines of a close knit small village and start to change it. Social suicide.
Or it would be if the people who did it cared one tiny whit about anyone other than themselves.
Progs, “Elites”, and Libs…the same the world over.
Me! ME!! MEEEEEE!!!!!
Hi Betsy! You might be interested in this article about spiritual revival in Wales, the 1700s.
Love the scenic view of that beautiful land, too.
https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/when-god-woke-up-wales
I am interested, Della!! Thank you😘
In Wales, one is either Church or Chapel. This is a good explanation of the difference.

Had BBQ at the City Market BBQ in Lulling. The place is deservedly world famous. Texas wants you ‘Woo . . . 🙂
Stop it, G. My daughter would MELT there. Lol… don’t get me started on Neon Moons and George Strait. Can’t linger on it too long…
Those places are special. However, it was 103 F today.
Pastoral. Halcyon quiet space. Some Bustelo coffee and it would be perfect. 🙂
Pastoral…..like halcyon days, one of my favourites💕
There is something about mockingbirds and brash triumphant behavior in the morning. The rest of the day you notice them by seeing their tails as they fly, but in the morning they proclaim themselves with their mastery over song. And they can master any song. I have heard them make car alarm song.
But the oddest was when one was discovered by my video doorbell. It had noticed his motion during his morning rounds and made the motion alarm. And the bird took it as a challenge, imitating the doorbell perfectly. The doorbell was on his rounds for the next two days. But you could tell the doorbell was no longer seen as a challenge, repeating itself and never varying, never moving, only responding to motion, not song.
After that, the bird never came back, adjusting its rounds to places that mattered. The doorbell does catch birds every now and then. Latest was the tail of a male cardinal as it used the bell as a perch to collect whatever bugs were just above it. But once it engaged a mockingbird in a song duel and lost. Now, nothing cares about its sounds, just as it only cares about motion.
Good morning Jim.
Ever watch these mockers on an electric pole when they get so wound up they fly up and flutter back down? All the while going through their repertoire? They are great at bug hunting when they are not giving a concert. They stand over a suspected bug and extend and close their wings to get it to move is my surmise.
Good morning bird lovers…and why wouldn’t we be? We are all creatures of a Tree as well…
We have one, I am unsure what because he is well hidden though very likely a mockingbird because this is Texas after all, which has an astounding repertoire.
I stood and listened and counted the Theme and Variations. I left the auditorium at 25 and counting…all I liked to think giving glory to the Almighty in the stillness of the morning. Full throated and joyous.
(I hasten to add, monti, it was 6:30 and not in the middle of the night 😊)
Remarkable!
Because wow!
Levitation…
Camouflage. No one does it better that Almighty God.
Glorious selection Betsy
I thought they would lift our spirits, monti😊
Robins are always a favorite of mine. Herald of Spring up north.
You posted a bunch of great pictures, made my day. Be great as you always are Bet.
Ahhhhhhhh!
*BIG SIGH*
Thank you, my dear friend💕
Our 3 robin babies will be flying out over the next few days. Mama didn’t stay on the nest last night, no more room. She is still coming to feed them. So stinking cute. I’m wondering if she will set again this season or if 2 times is the norm. I believe the Lord took away her fear of us since our going in and out of the back door frequently didn’t scare her off the nest. If I’m out on the patio she will fly over my head to the nest to feed. She hasn’t ever tried to dive bomb us or our dogs. It’s amazing to watch.
2 baby robins and mother flew away four days ago.
Every year a robin nests in the same corner. I love it!
Now the patio awning can finally be cleaned, opened and do what it’s supposed to do; provide shade.
I call ours the Robin of the Porch Light. Once they’ve flown we’ll power wash the patio underneath but leave the nest in case she wants to use it again. It’ll be nice getting to have the light on again.
You should compare and contrast the big American robins to the teeninsy British ones, deb. I’d forgotten how big they are here.
Absolutely stunning birds, Betsy.
Here’s pic of our family bird who’s no longer with us. (not my photo)
A blue conure, his name was “Murphy.”
I adored that little guy, and he loved me, too.
After a year, had to find him a new home. His squawking drove the others insane.
I taught him to say several words, and how to blow me a kiss.
Miss him terribly, and considered getting another, but they live long time.
Asked the kiddos if they would take him when I died, and they said, definitely NO.
https://i.postimg.cc/SsDS986c/IMG-3843.webp
image won’t post. Sorry
It did post!! Gorgeous green, Della.
Why on earth do we get so attached? I can feel how you must have the day you said goodbye to him. And it breaks my heart to think of it, though I can certainly understand why😔
Had to do what was best for everyone – but there was good ending!
Contacted the breeder that I got him from, and she agreed to take him back. (no money involved)
Drove two hours to her place and cried the whole way, telling him how sorry I was.
When I arrived, there was a big cage in her family room with a female conure inside.
She put Murphy in there with her, and it was immediately – SUCCOTASH!
They snuggled up to each other, love at first sight.
When I left, he wouldn’t even listen to me say goodbye.
It helped knowing he was happy. 😂😂🤗🤗
God worked it all out – as usual.
I would have cried too. Almost cried reading your comment.
I’ve had two animal incidences where we couldn’t keep what we had…4 cats one time, a dog the other. We had to get in touch with our local animal shelter.
I bawled there and while I was there and all the way back home.
Got a call on all of them from that bless-ed, kind, animal loving place saying they’d found homes for them all.
And like you, sis, I saw the hand of a merciful great God in all of it.
Yes, He is good.🙏🏻😌💕
Such a nice ending – love to hear it!
It’s hard – mostly, because we’ve bonded and love them.
Then, it felt like I was a betrayer – and he could not understand the reason.
Glad it’s behind me.
I get that….me too.😔
And “betrayer”. A word Chris and I used as well. I get that, too.
All are pretty WOW…😂😂👍

Good morning, Jim😘 Just had to share. I thought we would appreciate a few of our feathered friends in the Tree this morning.
Judy Collins
-Bird On A Wire
I’d forgotten this one, P. Niiiice!!
I have only seen these Barn Owls once. Owls are unique to put it mildly. Ty Bet. Gorgeous
Most welcome. These I stole from the lovely Nigerian lady on the Morning Muster thread on the New Americanist I told you about long ago, Colkitto. I don’t think she’d mind. Beautiful creations need to be shared.
I’ve never seen one, though I’m sure I’ve heard them. What an experience that would be!!
There is a screech owl I’ve seen perched in a pine tree once and the other night caught sight of one flying through the street’s light.
We have a barn owl that has discovered the garage roof
-again. It gets loud late at night.
Some years back while out for a walk at dusk there was a huge outstretched shape in the sky. Thought it was a vulture turkey. It was a barn owl. Amazing!
Looks like a Flamenco dancer.
Yes!! Agree!
Osprey!
Even the name is majestic!
Good morning Miss Betsy.
Hard to miss these guys. This one is probably pecking at the reflection of himself in that car rear view mirror. Ever had to cover your car mirrors when its parked outside to keep the birds from pecking at them?
There he is!! The one I am hearing had obviously sequestered himself out of sight. And it was quite early.
No! I have never seen that. But I have seen them dive bomb cats many a time. When that happens the cat’s attitude always seems to be complete insouciance, as if to say “Not this again!” Complete with feline eye roll. Funny to watch😁
Monti, Last year while getting in my car in the parking lot, noticed a mockingbird pecking the mirror on car next to mine.
It was hilarious!
They get on truck mirrors here, too. (And leave a mess behind.) They see themselves and think it’s a rival – start fighting.
So far our mocking birds haven’t started their chorus yet. Ours usually start around 1:00am. Double pane windows greatly help block out the singing.
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good. – Romans 8:28
Living life God’s way is “the good life.“ It is important to realize that when Paul wrote to the Romans in today’s verse and following, he did not say that all things ARE good. Things often do not appear to be going well, but if you are a follower of Jesus, your future will be good—guaranteed. All the suffering, headaches, heartaches, and pain, all the ways you have been misunderstood, wounded, or even persecuted, every sin that has been committed against you God can work through His power to your benefit, for your good.
Through it all, God knows you and understands what you are going through. He knows what lies ahead, and He has promised that, in His economy, nothing is ever wasted! In the midst of everything, you are blessed. So, it is for good! Hold onto the promise that there is nothing that can ever separate you from Christ’s love. And that is good!
As you come to the Lord today in prayer, thank Him for your circumstances and the things He is teaching you. Praise Him that His love for you is unending and that He is always faithful, no matter what! Then pray that the public officials in Washington who do not know the Lord discover the depth of His love through an eternal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Morning
I know that my Redeemer liveth. Job 19:25
If, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. Rom. 5:10
This man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. Heb. 7:24, 25
Because I live, ye shall live also. John 14:19
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. I Cor. 15:19, 20
The Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD. Isa. 59:20
We have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace. Eph. 1:7
Ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. I Pet. 1:18, 19
Evening
The Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits. I Tim. 4:1
Take heed therefore how ye hear. Luke 8:18
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom. Col. 3:16
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Eph. 6:16
Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them. How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way. Psa. 119:166, 103, 104
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psa. 119:105
I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation. Psa. 119:99
Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. II Cor. 11:14
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Gal. 1:8

Thank You, Poy – for prayers and blessings to share !!!
God Bless You abundantly today and always !!! ❤️
💙🧚🏻♀️💙🧚🏻♀️💙
Godspeed in all….God is good dear Duchess01.
Hey pals. Blessings and love I send to you all. I… is… buried. Lots of demands. Posted a prayer in the prayer thread.
Woke at 4:30 AM EST because God gives us all the time we need to manage what needs managing. We are getting ready for consult with oral surgeon. Kiddo’s wisdom teeth are moving much quicker than I anticipated, so they are likely to move up her extractions to… now. She’s ready and she wants them gone, Tylenol is her best buddy right now.
Peace and overcoming, faith and perseverance… to you, friends. Shalom!
Good morning sis! May God’s Grace and Wisdom walk with you and Savannah today! 🙏🙏🙏
God morning, JustStevie. Thank you for your prayer, friend. He Is Merciful!
God’s is certainly walking with Savannah’s WISDOM TEETH…. lol – they come out Friday morning at 10 AM. This is her second oral surgery, as she had her baby canine incisors removed when she was a little bit. She’s not scared. I think she’s looking forward to the mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, ice cream, and pampering.
Morning, Woo-Hoo. All three of my grands had theirs extracted with no issues. Bonus for them was laughing at one another at the effects of the sedation. Shell be fine and will sail through.👍🏻😊
(You might ask, but I have read that alternating every two hours Tylenol and Ibuprofen is as effective as stronger pain meds. )
God morning, Bets. This will be my third rodeo with wisdom teeth and one other oral surgery for her – which she sailed through.
I’ve got the athletic tube socks and freezer bags ready for ice packs to tie around her head. She won’t care – she’ll be sedated and sleeping. LOL
Will address the med thing below responding to C.R. too.
A good mother is always prepared!
That would be you-hoo😎🤗💕
Hey Woo – will be thinking of you both! I had two wisdom teeth out in my forties!
Remembered drinking chocolate Boost/Ensure for a week. Ate it slightly frozen, and it really wasn’t that bad. Provided nutrients.
🙏🏻🥰
Oh Della… that sounds so painful. Roots didn’t grow into your nerves? Wooo weeee… that hurts thinking about it.
Thanks for the reminder about Ensure. Good idea.
Mine out at 14…impacted…hospital…chocolate malts for a month.
Woo, if they give you some hydrocodone or oxycodone to give her for pain, don’t let her take them more than 2 days in a row. Skip a day. In my decades of experience, it’s the third day of continuous exposure when changes happen in the brain. Some cold fresh pineapple run through the food processor eaten with a spoon will work wonders! I had 4 impacted wisdom teeth pulled at 15. They used to give me headaches something fierce. Prayers Up, Ma’am.
Good morning, C.R…. thank you for the tips.
I had a pretty darn scary episode with oxycodone or hydrocodone (can’t remember which) after my c-section. Day 1 – I fell asleep after taking care of the baby and forgot to take my pain meds. Woke up feeling full effects of the c-section and thought the staples came open and my innards fell out. Screaming my bloody head off. Took the meds, then was hallucinating and thought my new infant Savannah was half baby, half lobster and her LEGS FELL OFF. I KID YOU NOT!!!
About lost my ever-lovin’ mind and promptly switched to Tylenol exclusively after day 2.
She’s stocked up with all the goodies and, frankly, I think looking forward to the lounging around and the pampering. Pretty bad the lengths we go through to get a “vacation” around here.
I know the doc is planning a prescription dosage of Tylenol and one other med – can’t remember the name. We tend to stay on the light side of meds. She’ll be fully sedated.
Thank you for your prayers, C.R.
When I took Oxycodone for a surgery I felt like it was destroying my Soul/Spirit, I got off them asap.
It is bad stuff. I refuse that stuff. Won’t take it. Not sure what they’re giving her besides Rx Tylenol dose. She’s going to be just fine. She’s tough and she’ll sleep through it all.
JWoo, if the Tylenol has codeine in it (Tylenol #3) watch for its upsetting her tummy.
Will do, Bets
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😘
Motrin (yes, that brand) unless there’s a prescription
and or Tylenol.
JWoo, prescription Tylenol is usually Tylenol#3 which has codeine in it. Double check with the doc on that.
Sending my prayers for Savannah and you.🙏🙏🙏🙏
JWoo… not laughing at you ..but I had some serious surgery on pancreatitis problem.. took that stuff also.. hallucinating back in spare bed room .. black spiders coming down from ceiling and a wolf head coming backside of door..
I actually just laid there enjoying the scene knowing it was an hallucination..never had one before 😂😅👍

APPREHENDED BY GOD
“If that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended.” Phil. iii. 12
Never choose to be a worker; but when once God has put His call on you, woe be to you if you turn to the right hand or to the left. We are not here to work for God because we have chosen to do so, but because God has apprehended us. There is never any thought of – “Oh, well, I am not fitted for this.” What you are to preach is determined by God, not by your own natural inclinations. Keep your soul steadfastly related to God, and remember that you are called not to bear testimony only, but to preach the gospel. Every Christian must testify, but when it comes to the call to preach, there must be the agonizing grip of God’s hand on you, your life is in the grip of God for that one thing. How many of us are held like that?
Never water down the word of God, preach it in its undiluted sternness; there must be unflinching loyalty to the word of God; but when you come to personal dealing with your fellow men, remember who you are – not a special being made up in heaven, but a sinner saved by grace.
“I count not myself to have apprehended: but THIS ONE THING I DO…”
Oswald Chambers

Morning, Miss girl. Stay cool🤗
🤗 Thank you Betsy! May the Lord Bless and keep you safe today! 🙏✝
🤗🌄🌻😘!!!
Blessings to you, JustSteve and thank you for your obedience to Him to post these words. So good. Nourishment.
Love you, friend. May things go easy on you today and yes, everyone please stay cool. We’re cool – just dingy with all the smoke. We look like Los Angeles and need a good Santa Ana wind to blow this stuff out of here. Ugh.
Plenty of DC blowhards who help you do that, sis.
I don’t think I want to smell their satanic breathe. Yuck.
No worries…they wouldn’t deign to mingle with the plebs…that’s you and me by the way😎
Glad to be a pleb…
That’s what God made me. I am more than satisfied😊💞
The Golden Rule
Good morning Val1
Thank you
Good morning to all my 🌳house Friends!
🛡 🏹 ⚔ WARRIOR WEDNESDAY ⚔🏹🛡
The biggest push from Satan is to deceive and distract the Lord’s children from their position of dedication and righteousness. The lure is called convenience. We are so busy. I know myself, it is so easy to chose something that will make my life easier…but then find out, the deviant source that hides behind the curtain, that controls and lassos my time, time that my Father wishes to spend with me. And it’s not only that! The digital world is tracking and making us captives of that world and it’s not our Father’s world. I am convinced that today, the digital world is Satan’s greatest tool of all time…it ensnares us in ways we cannot see. Those of us that work in the business world know these tools are required to complete our jobs. And yet, I do believe a dividing line will come, a choice will have to be made…am I ready?
And a good Warrior Spirit Wednesday to you and yours, Ma’am!
Thank you CR…🤗
Peace and Blessings for your day! 🙏✝
Hello Stevie, thought of you yesterday when my new issue of Bird Watchers Digest arrived.
On the cover and main topic is about hummingbirds.
It’s fantastic publication that Colkitto recommended.
https://bwdmagazine.com/
Della, have you ever seen the movie “The Big Year” about a birdwatching contest which takes place over an entire year?
Steve Martin, Jack Black, and someone else whose name you’d know which I can’t remember. It’s as much about personal relationships, priorities and life as it is about each one trying to see and document as many birds as he can to secure the top prize in the bird watching world.
If you ever find yourself at loose ends and are looking for a movie which needs no thinking, I can highly, HIGHLY recommend it.
Trailer below… I didn’t think I’d like it at all. I loved it. That’ll “larn” me..
No, I haven’t seen, and it sounds great! Steve Martin is a riot!
I’m saving this, thank you!
😁👍🏻😘
Morning, CR. Warrior Wednesday and every other day of the week. To all our Warriors in this Tree…
Excellent, Bet! Blessings to you and yours and for our whole Treehouse Family!
And to you, dear friend…always🤗
Good morning Prayer Warrior Stevie
May the Lord bless you and keep you safe
☘️🍀☘️
JustStevie,
You are right on!!! about the injection of nefarious softwares into our day to day business transactions. There is a saying that bank tellers handle so much real money, that it is easy for them to tell a counterfeit dollar when they come to pass – because they’ve handled the real stuff so much.
In my experience managing financial things for the company I work for – I can see the added issues and updates and software not talking to one another any more because I am in them every day and can see the nuances. For instance, Intuit QuickBooks uses Adobe Acrobat attachments for invoices and statements sent through the system… we send via Outlook. The beginning of May – Apple sent its device users an update forcing them to default to their proprietary viewer and converted all the attachments to windat files. Nobody using an Apple device could open those routine invoices and statements I’ve customarily sent out for the last 5 years.
So… what’s happening… is the Tower of Babel. They are preventing the software from talking to each other. How that’s really going to come into play is when we have to log into our bank accounts, do the third party authentication with our phones, enter the six digit code – and suddenly it won’t work. Without our phones… how will they verify our identity???
This has happened with dealing with our Verizon phone systems. There were so many levels of authentication – and just because I couldn’t provide a four digit PIN number that must have changed somewhere down the road – I as the Account Administrator played hell getting done what I needed done with Verizon – despite verifying like 8 other factors to the account and them having my name etc as the Administrator. I had to use my PRIVATE Tello cell phone to get the authentication code and they read out some schpeel that you grant them access to your phone’s data. I was so pissed.
They are just going to decide one day – to not grant you access. That’s not OUR money anymore… they give us PERMISSION to use that money that THEY KEEP.
I am over it.
I made the mistake of reading “Atlas Shrugged” at the age of 20 years old – and I’m there. I am there… right now.
Who is John Galt? 😲
Yes, I am familiar with the QB complications! And did you know…that the next iPhone (Apple) update will only allow log in with a facial scan per the tech reports out there?
It’s not just our money but our DATA…that they will use against us eventually. It’s digital prison and it will lead to the mark of the beast. It’s best to know now so that we can make intelligent (and spiritual) choices to avoid what we can. But the day will come when we will have to make hard decisions and be forced to depend solely upon God to survive. (Not that we should look at it as being forced but many will be in that position all of a sudden.)
Stevie John is a character in the book
Atlas shrugged
Very good book
We’ve got our Dagney Taggert fans here forming a circle round the fire.
I did NOT know that about the iPhone. I hate Apple products and avoid them like the plague. Seems they are marginalizing and marginalizing Android. Which is interesting – aren’t monopolies bad for consumers????
So glad I kept all my old cell phones – including non-smart phones. Might have to take the time machine back a few years and crack those puppies out of storage. I’m ready to get the bug out bags and have our portable housing and generators. Besides, our rent is so high – it would be smarter to live in a tent city!!!
Just not in Seattle.
Where in the world do we move? What looks good? Japan? Where is the Last Refuge?
Mornin’ all!
Good morning WeeWeed

Verse of the Day for Wednesday, June 28, 2023
✟
“Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.”
Psalms 100:2 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.

Good morning, sweet friend😘🌻☀
It seems suddenly that voices for God’s littlest, precious in His sight, are getting louder every day🙏🏻.
St. Peter Invited to Walk on the Water by Francois Boucher
Gerry & The Pacemakers – You’ll Never Walk Alone
you will never walk alone
walk with Jesus
Trust Him
☘ 🍀 ☘
walking with Him means you must trust in Him
Complete, unfailing trust, mo. It’s hard sometimes. That’s when contemplation and prayer in the quiet becomes necessary.
This is beautiful, my friend. My goodness, to ponder on what Peter must have been thinking!!🙏🏻
Peter was a rookie in FAITH – over time it increased !!!
We can all relate to his hesitancy and fear !!!
However – FAITH cancels out FEAR !!!
God tested me (3) times – the third time was the CHARM !!!
❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Love that, duchess💕 I think often it helps to look backwards at those times when, facing things we’d wished fervently we hadn’t had to, we are able to see how the hand of Almighty God was there getting us through. I’ll put it that simply.
And on so seeing and remembering, it ought to help us to rest assured that if He was there then, He will not in future abandon us in upcoming trials. If we can hold on to that when we feel fear poking its unwanted head through…
Yes, exactly – our FAITH is perfected over
time until the ULTIMATE TEST !!!
And like Peter – if we let go – we fail !!!
I often thought God would test us
over and over until we get it right !!!
I loved telling MDs – when asked
how did I do dat – heal so quickly ?
And I would tell them
I had a small part to play
in this accomplishment !!!
GOD DID IT !!! ❤️❤️❤️
And Yes – if He did it once
He will do it again !!!
We need to learn to LISTEN
and hear God’s VOICE
It is a QUIET voice…
The other guy YELLS and
SCREAMS anxiously…
Ans he says God does not
love you – you are so bad !!!
LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE !!!
💙 🧚🏻♀️ 💙 🧚🏻♀️ 💙
You and Della, who once told her doctors the same, if I remember correctly. I often wonder what doctors who hear this from a patient feel about the truth of healing.
My own surgeon dad knew where his skills came from.🙏🏻
The ones who believe do not question from where the healing comes…
The others look at you like you are crazy !!!
One of them proclaimed – IT’S A MIRACLE !!!
God made us – He knows where everything is
and how it works – why can He not heal ???
They think they are gods – so they must know
it all. – and you know nothing !!!
I know what God can do – and that is all
I need to know !!! ❤️
Yes… I came this close to mentioning their god complex.
A humble, God fearing doctor is a jewel if you can find one. My dad always used to say that the ones who were the best were the ones who had no problem saying, “I don’t know.”.
God afternoon, duchess01.
So good to hear of your testing and overcoming. We must all share those stories, so when the devil goes knocking at others’ doors – they will know with proof that The Lord always makes a way to flee and He will deliver us from the fowler’s snare.
Amen goes right there, JW !!! ❤️
(You’ll Never Walk Alone was played at the funeral of Chris’s older older son (muscular dystrophy). It is the anthem for Liverpool FC. Impressive to hear a stadium full of football mad Scousers singing it.)
I am sorry to hear of the loss of his son. What an incredible memory and I am grateful for those eternal memories.
Both sons, JWoo. Same thing.
Betsy, I recently thought of Chris’ huge losses of both sons. That was – and still is – such a hard, hard thing to experience.
And I am sorry…
You are so kind, Della. He knew that would be the future for them.
But the hardest thing was that they knew it, too. They were both so bright.
Bless, you, my dear friend😘

Good morning my dear sweet friend

Morning, MO !!! Thanks for your blessing !!!
It came yesterday !!! Guns a blazing !!!
Another enemy strike at the heart !!!
Fought the good fight
Sent the enemy fleeing
At the sound of the
Mighty Name of Jesus. !!!
Now the enemy is attacking JW
Her heart -her child
PRAY for her please !!!
God Bless You Real Good !!!
HUGS !!! 💙🧚🏻♀️💙🧚🏻♀️💙
duchess01,
Whose tail do I need to kick for you???? Come on, tell your sis. I’ve got lots of pent up hostility and I ain’t afraid to use it.
No, I am not being attacked right now. I am being “made busy” which JustStevie so adeptly shared. That IS a certainty.
I recognize evildoers’ ways and I fight them. The prayer I posted on the thread this morning was something carried in my heart for the last three days that I was inclined that someone else needed to hear. Of course, every ounce of it applies to me, but I am living proof of living abundantly relying solely on Jesus.
I have the sweetest story about kiddo. I’ll have to post it in a little bit. I’m trying to catch up reading everyone’s thoughts. I am so behind!
Takes a while to keep abreast of these chats don’t it woo
It didn’t used to be, mo. Our face has gloriously changed…or been made to change. I’m loving it!!! 😍🙏🏻😘🍀
The fight is between FEAR and FAITH – not mine – a family member –
The devil is a LIAR – the father of lies – and he is creating
a ‘what if ‘ scenario when the surgeon claims he got it all !!!
Does that make sense ???
So – as usual – we need to kick enemy butt !!!
Where two or more – there are two prayer warriors fighting now
Please join us !!! Thanks !!! ❤️❤️❤️
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
Oh duchess!!!! These are wonderful!☀💕
SING !!! SING !!! SING !!! BET !!!
MAKE A JOYFUL NOISE TO THE LORD !!!
MKAY ??? LOVE YOU – HUGS !!!
💙 🧚🏻♀️ 💙 🧚🏻♀️ 💙
God is in His heaven, and all is right with the world.
Our hearts sing His praise! Is there a sweeter sound?
Much love right back to you, dearest friend. Sent priority!😉🤗😘
AMEN
Thank you, Duchess.
I love putting on the Maranatha praise music and singing along.

Cool story – my Mom died when I was young, so never did hear how “Joan” came about – but I did learn that my name would have been “Claude Francis” if I was a boy. My half brother and two half sisters who were much older than me and, frankly, a whole different family – were relieved that I was a girl. I would have harshed their cool.
But the cool story – when Savannah was in utero – it was determined that she had her umbilical cord wrapped around her neck, though no one knew how complicated her entanglement was. I had to go through non-stress tests 2 to 3 times a week while pregnant and it was complicated. I came home, put my arms around my belly, and I talked to my daughter. I told her “I can’t help you in there. You have to be a good girl and take careful care sweet one. You have to help yourself out of this.”
I went to bed and dreamed of her. I dreamed her name was Savannah. Then, the next day I was cut off on the freeway by a Savana van and that was all she wrote. She became Savannah and I talked with her while she was in my belly and called her by name.
And when she was born – she had the most magnificent full head of auburn red hair. The good auburn kind – the Rene Russo kind. And she was safe – for The Lord Has always held her in His Hands.
And she was a peaceful baby. She attended the Microsoft kids high-end daycare in Redmond,WA. The care workers would take their breaks and hold her on their breaks. She brought them peace and they loved her for it.
thank you JWoo for sharing that with me
that is a very cool story
thanks friend

The year was 1989. In my beloved Wales it was the first Cardiff Singer of the World I ever saw. A competition for classical singers. I was in heaven!!
That year the favourite was the Welsh baritone (now 34 years later) Sir Bryn Terfel.
His stiff competition was the late and very much lamented Russian baritone Dimitri Hvorotovsky.
Amongst the jurists on the panel were Dame Joan Sutherland and Marilyn Horne. I didn’t envy them their jobs that year.
Both went on to magnificent operatic careers. Hvorotovsky ultimately won that year with Sir Bryn taking the Lieder Prize.
Here are just two of the works they sang for that competition Final. Contrast, compare, and judge for yourselves.
Mr Hvorotovsky passed away too early, tragically too early from a brain tumour. He was much loved by audiences from the the world as you can hear from the reception he was given at his last appearance at the Met. And despite his neatness to death, he gave this performance everything he had.
Bittersweet.
nearness….not neatness… I should learn to let typos or autocorrect interference ride. But pedant that I am, not happenin’ 😉
One more showcasing the brilliant career which Sir Bryn has had and continues to have
This is the “Te Deum” from my favourite opera “Tosca”. For me he was a perfect Baron Scarpia…his outer appearance mirroring his blackened soul, menacing. A powerful performance. The audience lucky enough to hear this thought so as well.
From The Royal Opera House
FYI FOR TREEPERS
Tosca is an opera in three acts by Giacomo Puccini to an Italian libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa. It premiered at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome on 14 January 1900. The work, based on Victorien Sardou‘s 1887 French-language dramatic play, La Tosca, is a melodramatic piece set in Rome in June 1800, with the Kingdom of Naples‘s control of Rome threatened by Napoleon‘s invasion of Italy. It contains depictions of torture, murder, and suicide, as well as some of Puccini’s best-known lyrical arias.
Puccini saw Sardou’s play when it was touring Italy in 1889 and, after some vacillation, obtained the rights to turn the work into an opera in 1895. Turning the wordy French play into a succinct Italian opera took four years, during which the composer repeatedly argued with his librettists and publisher. Tosca premiered at a time of unrest in Rome, and its first performance was delayed for a day for fear of disturbances. Despite indifferent reviews from the critics, the opera was an immediate success with the public.
Musically, Tosca is structured as a through-composed work, with arias, recitative, choruses and other elements musically woven into a seamless whole. Puccini used Wagnerianleitmotifs to identify characters, objects and ideas. While critics have often dismissed the opera as a facile melodrama with confusions of plot—musicologist Joseph Kermanfamously called it a “shabby little shocker”[1][2][3]—the power of its score and the inventiveness of its orchestration have been widely acknowledged. The dramatic force of Tosca and its characters continues to fascinate both performers and audiences, and the work remains one of the most frequently performed operas. Many recordings of the work have been issued, both of studio and live performances.

Yes!!!!! Thank you, duchess!
In the trash bin, Bet – I am
Posted an summary about Tosca
for those unfamiliar – BUT
used Wiki as a reference
so it will. probably stay
in the bin until Add rem arrives
I tried – * Sigh *
❤️
And were successful!!!! Love ya for this thoughtful addition😘
I remember Ad rem the other day saying that Wikipedia has some strange things about it that sends anything posted with a link to them straight to the bin.
Bless you, Ad Rem!! You’re on fire today, girl💕
Maybe it was WeeWeed, Bet !!!
Thanks Commander Weed !!!
Clicks heels and salutes !!! ❤️
Do not think Ad Rem is here, yet !!!
Good point! Yes she’s our afternoon and night I monitor..
Thank you WeeWeed!!! You had your coffee this morning🤗💞
“Te Deum” – I wonder what that means? I sang the John Rutter version in Carnegie Hall in 1989. He had recently written it and we sang from photocopies of his handwritten score. I kept all the sheet music, as well as his signature on a marquee poster.
I love Tosca, Betsy. I didn’t realize a song within was titled the same as the “Te Deum” I know.
https://johnrutter.com/music/printed-music/catalogue/te-deum
“Te Deum” is a Latin hymn in praise of God.
In Tosca, Baron Scarpia sings of his carnal desire for Tosca in a church while a Te Deum is being sung. Blasphemy.
He is a repellent animal. And this shows him at his most depraved.
Love John Rutter. His works were part of Charles III Coronation. He’s s Christmas music is simply wonderful.
The brain fills in the blanks – as gifted by God –
So Bet – Please don’t fret
your words/phrasing we get
Please do not forget
We have no regret !!!
Hugggles and Smooches for YOU !!! ❤️

Yellow Warbler. Have not seen any here, but they are as “common” as Warblers can be in the their proper habitat. I used to watch them in a old nursery field before storage lockers were placed there which destroyed their home, this was where I used to live. I used to listen to their “Sweet, sweet, sweeter than sweet” calls
Morning, Colkitto😊 I would love to spot one of these beauties. Please look upstream, so to speak.I’ve felt very “birdy” today and hoped you’d drop by. Thought of you with each one I posted, dear friend.
As for their homes being destroyed? “Progress” has a terrible price.
Also reading that bee colonies in the US, the foreign country we all live in, are disappearing at the fasted rate ever. Not good.

Nice one Colkitto,
I thought that was a finch. Had to look it up (illustrating my shortcomings on some birds on my part; chuckle). If you want to really appreciate life then it’s nice to be able to identify all the types of birds, mammals and flora in your area.

I LOVE CHORAL MUSIC !!!
Sang under two very talented Choral Directors
and one Jewish Choral Director
Music was classical and religious and folk
Catholic and Non Denominational and School
So this piece brings back fond memories !!!
Thank You !!! ❤️❤️❤️
Holy Spirit Connection – you have !!!
💙 🧚🏻♀️ 💙 🧚🏻♀️ 💙
How you must have enjoyed that, sis. To my ear there is nothing as satisfying as the human voice either singly or in choral groups. But in choral singing when every voice blends in equal measure with another?? Ahhhhh. Straight to my soul.
Vocal Instruments, Bet !!! ❤️
God thinks of EVERYTHING !!!
We bloom where we are planted, too !!!
Learned whatever the denomination
MUSIC IS UNIVERSAL !!! ❤️❤️❤️
It is that. Agree completely!
Didn’t know you did that Dutch
Thanks for sharing that
Know I know about a part of your life
I bet you sung
Like an angel
☘️🍀☘️
Sometimes angelic, yes MO !!! Other times – NOPE – lol
Loved the church music and concerts – Blended voices
My best bud was a bass – when I was sad
He would draw me a cartoon he entitled
‘Milton Says’ Milton says….
Run between the raindrops and
you won’t get wet !!!
He made me instantly giggle – and
the choir director would tap her wand
and look directly at US !!!
Great friendships and warmth
We were all in this together !!!
Thanks for asking…..💙🧚🏻♀️💙🧚🏻♀️💙
Things and people you will long remember
tap tap tap
Most definitely, MO !!! ❤️
We worked hard – but we had fun, too !!!
God takes us where He needs us the most !!!
Our choir sang with (2) other church choirs
and we did a benefit concert for the needy !!!
Well attended – think that was because our
choir director was famous county-wide !!!
Our Christmas and Easter concerts were
jam-packed because we did the most
difficult compositions – from Handel’s
Messiah – Bach – and so many others !!!
God Blessed Us Real Good !!!
💙 🧚🏻♀️ 💙 🧚🏻♀️ 💙
My favourite voice!!!! A bass!😍
One of my favourites…Paul Plus how singing an aria from Don Carlo

This painting is taking my breath away!
It makes me feel very small and insignificant in the face of His glory and coming again.🙏🏻

Who hasn’t pondered or wondered
‘What does heaven look like
🌸🌸🌸
IS THIS A TRICK QUESTION, MO ???
🙃 🙃 🙃
Just wonderin
if anyone else
ever wondered
☘️🍀☘️
Just pulling your good leg, MO !!!
LAUGH – MKAY ???
Many have imagined –
Others claim they died and have seen
And some have created their version

The Doors – the Gardens – the Mansions

So there are clues – nothing definitive tho’
And YES – many have WONDERED !!!

I’ve thought about it too, Molo. But it’s beyond our comprehension.
Then, remembered that Jesus will be there! And we will see God.
So, it will be glorious – beyond even our faintest imaginations.
We will see Jesus — face to face!
I’m ready…
Ready to see the Lord
Oh yes
I’m ready ready ready
Good to see you friend
☘️🍀☘️
Good news, molon! I’ll see you there – it’s gonna be grand!
(No snakes, for one thing…)
no snakes
in the sweet bye n bye
we shall meet on that beautiful shore
The majesty revealed by this painter is astounding. Even if it is just a vision. But I can well believe Christ’s return looks just like this. Who are we to say this wasn’t communicated to him so he could paint it.
Just an idle musing of mine. I am so very much taken with this one, mo. Thank you.

Substack research article, WMC Research, titled “Vagus/Olfactory Nerve Trafficking, Brainstem and Inhibitory Neuron Death, the Spike Protein and Sudden Cardiac Death”
where the research is looking into how the spike protein gains entry, through the sinus, and then establishes its routes of infection into the brain and causing sudden cardiac death. It’s a researchy nerdy type of writing, but also quite informative.
https://wmcresearch.substack.com/p/vagusolfactory-nerve-trafficking
Really makes one have doubts about those nose swab tests doesn’t it?
Yep – I don’t trust one thing they put out – info or products.
Me, neither. Not anymore.
I felt the infection hit me. I was in a packed church, listening to Dr. Frank speech about election abnormalities. I sensed a mist-like come up my nose that I inhaled. Most of the attendees there got very sick. I had a meeting in Detroit that weekend and it was a nightmare weekend – and I got the sickest ever in my life. America’s Frontline Doctors saved my life – quite literally. We did take the monoclonal antibody infusions and I was nearly disqualified from those as my O2 levels were too low. Thankfully, I coughed and it pushed the levels up just high enough. Except now… I wonder what was in those infusions, too. I dread thinking about it. Can’t change it, so give it to The Lord. I immediately was pushed into full stop menopause and never ovulated again. My daughter had issues too – but she seems to have since recovered.
Words are not enough JWoo. Prayers for you both.
Never took one, I suspected they were being used to dope the virus into people. Seeing the endlessly long lines of people queueing up for the test made me sick to my stomach.
Oh Bessie2003 – you make me hold my breathe. Had especially rough case COVID 9/2021 and my olfactory nerve was severely damaged and I am certain there is brain damage there as well. Still have periods of parosmia and it is most disturbing and disheartening when it strikes in waves.
I’ve posted this before, but for those unfamiliar with the term: Parosmia is a severe distortion of your sense of smell and in some cases the complete cessation of the ability to smell some scents. I cannot smell raw meat and therefore Savannah has to confirm that any suspicious meat is okay to eat or not. We rely on our sense of smell more than we realize.
In my case, I get phantom smells that are rancid like rotting flesh though there is nothing that provokes it. I wondered if I was rotting from the inside out. Savannah smells none of it, nor does she smell any untoward scent on me.
I believe those waves of distortion are precursors for triggers I get, which is what I think messed up my blood work these last two times sending 7 of my blood markers skyrocketing. Fortunately, my heart was a-ok – or at least without any sign of arteriosclerosis. Now any other abnormalities to my heart – only God knows – but I imagine the cardiac ct scan would have picked something up.
But certainly a part of frontal lobe of my brain has been adversely affected and it sounds like it will be permanently. Kiddo and I – we are prepared for anything.
JWoo
The thing with the smells
This has happened to a lot of people.
Good thing your a fighter.
All the garbage they throw at us .
Some of it sticks , like what happened to you . It’s part of the battle .
No question about it , they are in full battle mode .
They don’t care anymore.
Going all out they are.
Funny thing is , every single thing they do to harm us is going to come back on them.
They will reap the whirlwind in the end .
The Lord will be back but this time will be coming to claim His Throne.
The Great White Throne of judgement .
May God have mercy on their souls
Peace be with you my friend
Stay strong
☘️
You are 100% right, my chivalrous friend. Whenever the devil makes schemes… those schemes turn on him and plunder his own… and through that failure… it all works for our ultimate good.
Yes, Sir. I’ll stay strong. You do, too, brother in Christ.
I posted a comment somewhere else today, think it is on this thread, with links to two nasal sprays that apparently do kill this particular virus before it can get into the lungs; one is Xlear, the other Cofid Rx. will post links to the articles here. The FLCCC doctors have been encouraging people to use sinus sprays to get ahead of any infection.
I use the Xlear simply because it’s sold over the counter at pharmacies; the “X” stands for Xylitol:
https://www.mydentistfortcollins.com/2021/01/new-study-xlear-nasal-spray-effective-against-covid-19-and-new-variants/
the other has povidone iodine and on their website one can click on where to find and a map comes up, enter zip code and it will let you know what providers have it in stock in your area, of course can also be purchased online:
https://cofixrx.com/shopping/
I had a really bad cold in December 2019, and the way it knocked me out breathing-wise later assumed it was the vaunted covid virus; in the summer last year, 2022, I knew it was the virus, my lungs fought for air, no fever so presented as a cold but boy did my lungs take time to recover. It was a good thing I used to do competition swimming so had strong lungs to begin with.
We all now need to learn to ‘listen’ to our bodies, when we get the hint somethings up time to bring out our homemade medicine cabinet, and if you can follow the FLCCC writings, the doctors are doing their best to find ways to help those who had covid and/or vax injuries. Dr. Pierre Kory seems to have reshaped his practice to focus on those who are experiencing what is now being called long covid; will post a link to the FLCCC site as a reply (don’t want to have too many links in the main comment, might end up in the bin and the moderators have enough work!
https://covid19criticalcare.com/
scroll down where there are the three boxes, prevention, treatment, recovery and the recovery one has options for post-vaccine syndrome and long covid.

Don’t answer for me because I won’t be back to check.

I am going to answer you anyway, brother Frank. We are NOT losing the culture wars. Our job is to plant the seeds. God via The Holy Spirit is in charge of germination. You be your best self, Frank, and you are quite the formidable one. We are planters. You know that. God decides the yield.

Never saw those of Joan of Arc
Interesting History
Joan of Arc
by Joshua J. Mark
published on 28 March 2019
“Prophecies had been in circulation in France for years that a maiden in armor would arise from the region of Lorraine to save the country, and Joan now fulfilled that prophecy in traveling with the army to Orleans in full battle gear. Although she had thus far had nothing to do with the war and had never been involved in a single military engagement, the prophecy attached itself to her so firmly that she was welcomed in the city as a hero. The siege was conducted by the English in such a way that gaps were open to the city at various intervals which could quickly be closed when necessary. Joan and her forces were able to enter the city through one of these on the Loire river a few miles east of Orleans.”

I like this second statue
Pointing to the sky
Notice the airplanes making the white lines in the sky
Loved watching planes make the lines in the sky as a kid .
I agree the second statue is impressive –
as far as the lines in the sky are concerned
Nope – they are not normal
all I can say – I pray them away !!!

Hello American Friends, here is a short video from Israel. This is our top national counter terror unit, it’s called the YAMAM. I know in the US there is the argument of “who is best?” The Seals or Delta? Etc…. In Israel there is no argument. To serve in the YAMAM that is under the Border Police you have to already be a retired Special Forces warrior or infantry and then pass an insane selection. This year alone Israel killed 140 terrorists in countless operations and arrested hundreds. They are on daily operations and are getting to confront all the worst known terrorists. The following video has quite a lot of actual helmet camera footage from this year. Most enemies know that if the YAMAM is there they will either surrender or die. In many cases they choose the last option. There is one exposed face in the video and that is the hero they lost this year. See below. Shalom.
Hello David, and good to see you!
Hope you and yours are doing well.
Please take care.
Shalom.
🙏🏻
Thank you so much! Take care.
