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 †

it doesn’t matter what vessel we have on when we arrive ……..love is love
I Know You’ll Miss this ManBy Baxter Black, DVM
The Lord spoke to the heavy hearts that stood with hats in hand
“Your sadness pains me deeply and I know you’ll miss this man
But, it’s true what you’ve been hearing, Heaven is a real place.
That’s no small consolation. You should use that fact to face
The emptiness his parting left that seeps into your bones
And draw on it to ease your pain. For he is not alone.
You see, all his friends are up here and all his loved ones, too,
‘Cause it wouldn’t be a heaven without each one of you.
And heaven for a cowboy is just what you might expect,
It’s horses that need tunin’ up and heifers that need checked.
It’s long rides with a purpose and a code that lights the way
And a satisfying reason to get up every day.
It’s the ranch he’s always dreamed of and never knew he’d find
And if you think about it, you can see it in your mind.
Him, leanin’ in the saddle with his ol’ hat on his head,
Contentment set upon his face like blankets on a bed.
The leather creaks a little as he shifts there in the seat.
The bit chains give a jingle when his pony switches feet.
And you somehow get the feelin’ that he’s sittin’ on a throne
A’gazin’ out on paradise just like it was his own.
I can promise you he’s happy, though I know you can’t pretend
You’re glad he made the journey. It’s too hard to comprehend.
The earthly way you look at things can never satisfy
Your lack of understanding for the answer to the ‘Why?’
So, I offer this small comfort to put your grief to rest,
I only take the top hands ’cause my crew’s the very best.
And I know it might seem selfish to friends and next of kin
But I needed one more cowboy and Uncle Bill fit right in.”
Today is the fifth anniversary of the loss of my dear friend who was taken by aggressive neuroendocrine cancer.
Kristine was Greek Orthodox and lived her life ooompaaaa!
She was a nurse anesthetist and the President of the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists. She was revered and loved by all.
The Thursday before she died, she called us and gathered Savannah and me to the phone and she whispered to us over and over again…. “You are FAMILY”… we didn’t have a family of our own…. just the two of us, but we grew to love Kristine as our neighbor, our sister, our blessed and dearest friend.
She came to me in my dreams that Sunday morning. All dressed in white in a chair smiling broadly as she often did. The texts through my church service started involving me and a handful of her highly medical friends with their terminologies.
Savannah and I immediately left for the UCMC in Chicago where Kristine was captive in ICU.
The Lord held off for us a wicked ice and wind storm as we would not be stopped from trying to be by her side.
We arrived and three calls up to the ICU we were hung up on each time. My daughter was only 12 and the hospital was under full lock down from everyone 16 and younger. We tried one more time, but if necessary.. we would raise our arms in that parking lot to bless our Kristine, her family, and that hospital. Our trip would not be in vain. The fourth call was golden and the allowed BOTH of us in.
Our girl, our dearest… she was catatonic when we walked in. Eyes wide. Severely damaged and bruised black and blue from the aggressive treatments. We settled next to her as close as we could and we read her Psalm 139. I told her that her kids and grands would be okay and that we loved her forever.
I met her family in the hall, gathered them together in a large circle, and prayed with them for what they must move forward to do.
And we left. On the 2 1/2 hour drive home, we were called and told that Kris had left this earth and gone on to her Heavenly Home.
I was driving and I couldn’t stop the car to hold my precious daughter who for the first time ever broke down in heavy wet wails “What’s to become of me now that I’ve lost my most perfect mentor!!!” she cried.
Oh my heart broke. It was not lost on me that I wasn’t her most perfect mentor, but it only made sense because our Kristine mentored everybody. She was a leader among women and she was our most perfect and loved friend.
I kept kid home from school that day. Told her math teacher that I wasn’t worried about her grades, that I loved Shelly her math teacher, but we had world work to be done that day that mattered more than any math grade ever could.
We went to lunch at Bravo and received a call from Kristine’s lifelong friend, Linda, also a nurse who spent her life serving others and sat with Kristine for days in end with Adriane, alternating so Kris would not be alone.
Linda told me Kristine had been deeply agitated. Though Savannah and I could not see it with Kris’s catatonic state… Linda knew and witnessed it. When we walked in, she said Kris hyperfocused on Savannah and when we read to her from Scripture… we brought her peace in her final hours.
It was my honor to come to her side that day. As her family disposed of her possessions, I would not allow the disposal of her plants for that were still alive and carried Kris’s love and care in them.
I still have them and they bloom for us in a sign of Kris’s love for us. Christmas Cacti, Amaryllis. The amaryllis just came out of dormancy and they are set to likely be blooming by Savannah’s birthday in March 29th.
Of course they are.
Kris went on to Heaven, went into the Throne Room of God and sent two babies to her children… one of which was an almost 40 year old daughter who was barren and had health conditions preventing her ever from becoming pregnant. However that simply would not stand! I can see Kristine whispering in the Lord’s Ear and making deals now! She made me laugh so much.
I remind her in my thoughts to her that I’m too old for babies. 👶
Little Kristine is as oooompa! as her Grandmama!! We love that little maniac so!
Oh that our hearts are so tightly wound to remember the mercy of The Lord’s Word in our final hours.
God held off that ice and wind storm that day and I will sing of His Mercy forever.
I love you, Kristine, and miss you terribly. Savannah can’t wait to see how you have decorated her Heavenly room. We know you’ve had a hand in it. We are doing the best we can and will do so… and every chance we can to draw others to pray… we will.
For our other Treeper families, there is nothing but joy, goodness, and Truth in the presence of the Lord. Every time I gather my tattered 30 year old NIV with its gold leaf worn down to nothing, my heart leaps for joy to see what The Lord will speak to me today.
Hold fast and hold firm to Him because, for those who believe Christ is their Lord and Savior, our lives do not end here… they merely move on to the perfection that God promises at back in Genesis when He limits our lives to 120 years and no longer contends harshly with us due to our humanly sinful nature.
HE IS SO GOOD AND TRUE. HALLELUJAH!
Love all y’all!
Such a teary story…precious! Thank you for sharing…💝💝💝 GOD IS GOOD and VICTORIOUS!
He Is Victorious and we are so blessed to have Him, Stevie. Love to you, Sis.
Thank you, JWoo, you are a treasure to the Treehouse.
I was alone with Mom when she passed. She was a hospice patient in a hospital on a floor where they don’t sell hope.
Mom had been in The Army Nurse Corp during WWII and lived a life of Holy Service. She taught her children that “His will be done on Earth” was our job.
She was never afraid of pain but they drugged her up everytime she tried to talk, said she was agitated.
Mom died with her eyes open wide and her mouth agape.
I found a picture of her playing with her niece and nephew, both of which had gone before her, she would have been in her early 20’s. Her eyes gleamed and her mouth was wide open in joy.
I have no doubt as to what she was seeing.
Thanks, Dave. (Kicking at a stone with hands in my pocket)
I could never GIVE as much as I receive from this beautiful Tree.
Happy you were able to be with your sweet Mom. I know she saw you and heard you. She sounds like an amazing example. You were very blessed by her.
Makes our waking hours so much more special as we gently move through this life.
I disagree dear JWoo, do not judge yourself or sell yourself short, to give is much better than to receive…🖖🏻
I am so glad you were able to be with your mom when she passed. I am sure she found your presence comforting. My mom died many years ago and we were very close, and I miss her very much. She was the kindest person I ever knew.
When she died of a sudden 2nd massive heart attack, soon after she had been taken to hospital with what was thought to be a ‘not so serious heart attack’ and would probably recover, I was far away on another continent and was unable to get to her side fast enough. I know she would understand how I tried to get there in time, but I feel so bad she was all alone when she died.
I was at my father’s side when he passed. It was not what I would have expected. Moments before he died, he asked me if he was dying and I said no, you just need a quick nap. I LIED. Still feel awful about it.
Bless you .. you were just being your loving kind self.
I am so moved by your posting. We often feel guilty don’t we, even though we tried to do our best at the time.
I think he would have approved of what you chose to do. You put his feelings and comfort first. Maybe think that he could have survived, so it was not really a lie, It was love.
You didn’t lie, Parachute. He awakened again in Heaven. Blessings friend.
Beautiful…
Very well said, dear ‘Woo. We are all honored that you wanted to share these wonderful thoughts with us. What a great way to remember such a good and dear friend. 🙂
Sigh, G. I still miss her terribly. Grief is such a heavy knapsack.
Beautiful. It reminded me of driving to see my only brother and closest friend pass away from a rare, vicious, lymph cancer that took his life. He actually spoke to me … as he was passing … me, still on the road hustling to see his final moments. But he was gone when I made it to Stanford hospital 45min. later.
Awesome story of love & faith, Woo. I’d type more but something must’ve got into my eyes.
That is a really good poem, warm, sincere, and well crafted. I love it.
Simply put . . . Karlijin’s playing is a remarkable example of a classical guitarist who has spent hours and hours of practice and develop her skills. I know people like her. They devote a significant part of their lives to developing virtuosity, learning to express their music within the classical guitar idiom.
When I first heard Karlijinj’s playing I was immediately capitaved by her playing. Here is a guitarist who has devoted a significant portion of her young life to developing and performing some wonderful compositions of her own creation.
She is, without a doubt, a splendid player. Her compositions are exquisite examples of individual expression. I could go on about her, but let’s simply give her another well deserved re-visit . . . Enjoyu Treeper friends.
Gorgeous,.Garrison 💕 Thank you for sharing your expertise and knowledge of these artists. They start my day in the most peaceful way, and I can’t put a price on that.
And here we are again!!
CATURDAY!!
(Good morning, Little Tink, Good Kitty 😌💕)
Poirot comes to mind.
Mais oui, ma cher 💕
I’m thinking Jeeves, a la P.G.Wodehouse….
Oh Lizzie…..I love this!!! 😍 I’ll say it once more. We arrogant humans can’t begin to fathom the depths of what we don’t know about the animal world.
Catly logic.
Little daggers
I’m trying…honest…nearly, nearly…
This morning (about 8:30ish) when I came into the kitchen, ‘Tink, of course, followed me in to sit by my side while I brewed coffee. (Fresh brewed Bustelo is one of life’s great simple pleasures.)
She had her breakfast then took up her customary spot next to my foot. She’s pretty mobile when in the house but almost always returns to “her” spot next to my foot.
Of late, she also likes to move from the counter-top to my shoulder and on down to my lap for a head and chin rub which she loves.
This is something of an arising (whenever that is) ritual—I really do think my darlin’ little kitty is looking after her person.
You aren’t alone in this, dear Bet. A good cup of coffee (2 this morning), my faithful kitty, and classical guitar music is how I also like to start my day. 🙂
This is why routine is so important to me, Garrison. VERY 😘
And apparently to Tink as well. You have no idea what a comfort will t is to us that she has you and you have her 💕
Classical guitar is some of the purist music there is. (Piano of course is right there next to it.) I can’t remember ever hearing a “bad” song played by even an amateur acoustic guitarist.

Police say suspect in Georgia student slaying is not US citizen, may be from Venezuela
· UGA parent: Campus safety concerns go ‘largely ignored’
· WATCH: Investigators scour apartment complex for clues
· ‘THIS ISN’T FAIR’: Nursing student’s family breaks silence
·
ATHENS, Ga. – The University of Georgia Police Department have taken a suspect in custody in connection with the suspected homicide of a 22-year-old nursing student from Augusta University who police found dead on the University of Georgia campus Thursday.
Police have charged Jose Antonio Ibarra with malice murder, felony murder, aggravated battery, aggravated assault, false imprisonment, kidnapping, hindering a 911 call and concealing the death of another, UGA Police Chief Jeffrey L. Clark said during a news briefing Friday evening. The suspect is not a U.S. citizen, according to authorities.
“The evidence is robust,” he told reporters, crediting campus security cameras in part for the arrest.
He was clearly one of Obama’s “Dreamers” … hanging around a college campus. Probably spending lots of time in the library reading books he couldn’t decipher in English. Nahhhh … he just lurked around looking for a solo coed to rape and murder.
God Will not be mocked. This evil will not stand and He Is mindful of His innocents who are harmed. No, this will not end well for evil when God gets His Hold on them.
Sooner than later, I hope.
It is a special assignment to be alive and witness to this period in human history.
Hold onto your hearts and your gasps gang, it’s gonna “Get Real” … real fast… slow at first, but then quick to boiling.
Pray and stand ready. God Will Guide you.
Anyone…and I mean ANYONE!!!…who played even a small part in the 2020 coup which deprived us of the man who stood watch over the borders and our nation has the blood of this young woman and all the others killed by criminal illegals.
And as this happened in Georgia, I point my finger directly at Kemp and Raffensperger. May they all never know God’s peace for the rest of their complicit lives.
J’ACCUSE!!!
There was a photo of a sweet smiling blond 11 year old girl in the Mail last week. She has disappeared on hernwalk home from school after the bus dropped her off.
Her backpack was found….
But no idea where she is or who has her.
I just can’t…

She was on the Dean’s List. Rest in peace, sweet soul. Thousands of patients in their worst moments will never know the comfort you would have brought them 🙏🏻🕊
J’Agree!

When are people finally going to wake up to what is happening? These types of incidents seem to be occurring more and more frequently and so often the suspect is an ILLEGAL alien who has been released from custody by OUR government. Americans are dying or being attacked and injured on a daily basis. This isn’t even addressing the massive economic on our nation and taxpayers. Money is being diverted from needed services and projects intended to benefit citizens in order to fund Biden’s giveaways to those who are here illegally. When you incentivize breaking the law (and offering FREE housing, FREE food, FREE medical care and FREE transportation IS incentivizing breaking the law to enter the nation) people will break the law(s) to obtain those incentives.
We can only remain situationally aware. Don’t go alone, or don’t go at all.
A $70/ month gym membership may be safer.. but do continue to exercise and build core strength.
We may need it.
Hard times bring hard men and the circle of life goes on….
President Trump mentioned the rise in the number of such cases of Migrant Crime yesterday when addressing the Black Republicans. He thinks it will get a lot worse because of the sources of these invaders, ie prisons and mental hospitals that have been emptied to place the burden of these unwanted people on the people of the U.S.
It really is horrific what is happening and the Dems don’t give a damn,
A Drama Major, no doubt 😉
I believe that’s referred to as a sashay
Incredible. I admit thinking at first this had to be an AI gimmick (always on the alert) but that’s just too much, too perfect to fake.

hi monti 🌞
Hi Annie!
Favorite CCR because of the lyrics and the simplistic beauty.
Long as I remember, the rain been coming down
Clouds of mystery pouring, confusion on the ground
Good men through the ages, trying to find the sun
[Chorus]
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who’ll stop the rain
[Verse 2]
I went down Virginia, seeking shelter from the storm
Caught up in the fable, I watched the tower grow
Five year plans and new deals, wrapped in golden chains
Without question … the most musical and superbly produced CCR Tune it seems I hear something new in this song every time I hear it …
Written after woodstock.
Easily, the most musical, best produced song ever recorded.by CCR. And I am lucky enough to have the ENIRE CCR collection on Analogue Productions vinyl. …

soooo groooooovy
You can take all the tea in China …
Now you’re talkin’… 🙂
Peace be still 🙏🏻
Sorry Betsy … but you can’t put a Stonehenge monument on stage that’s only 18” high … with dwarfs. When you’re mocking Led Zeppelin’s Celtic lyrics and music … you need 18 foot tall styrofoam Stonehenge …
One of my “bucket list” destinations 👊🏻
I hope you see it, DG. Must go to before the coach loads of tourists arrive. Before sunrise if possible.
Britain I fear is not as it once was.

Got to see Atta Lyman around 2000, right before he passed away, lunchtime show at a beachfront restaurant, the Hau Tree Lanai in the Diamond Head Gold Coast neighborhood about a mile from Waikiki.
Saw a brief notice in the entertainment section of the local paper alerting me to the show
Was great to see the old master, I’ll never forget it. Rounded up a couple friends to take with me.
His photograph held an esteemed place on one of the stone support columns in our Elks Lodge, 2 doors down from the Hau Tree
I also got to see Martin Denny at the piano at one of his last performances as guest of a revival exotica show troupe Don Tiki, with pianist Fluid Floyd and singer and showman Delmar deWilde, he of the pencil-thin mustache and leering eyebrow. They kept us entertained for a number of years in the 90s and 20-aughts, and have a couple of CDs that can be sought out.

Robert Fulton
(1765-1815)
American inventor and engineer (first commercial steamboat), dies of tuberculosis at 49
Biography: Robert Fulton was an American engineer and inventor widely credited with developing the first commercially successful steamboat. His innovations in naval transportation significantly transformed travel and trade in the 19th century.
Fulton’s interest in engineering was evident from an early age, leading him to pursue a career that combined his artistic skills with his fascination for machines. His work was deeply influenced by the likes of James Watt, the Scottish inventor whose improvements to the steam engine played a pivotal role in the Industrial Revolution. Fulton’s work was an extension of these innovations, applying the principles of steam power to naval transportation.
His breakthrough came after years of experimenting with steam engines and ship designs. In 1807, Fulton successfully launched the “Clermont,” a steamboat that traveled from New York City to Albany, proving that steam could be a practical source of power for water navigation.
The success of the “Clermont” led to the rapid expansion of steamboat services along the Hudson River and other major waterways. Fulton’s innovation revolutionized transportation, making it faster, more reliable, and more efficient. This, in turn, had significant economic implications, facilitating trade and contributing to the growth of cities along these routes.
In addition to his work on steamboats, Fulton also made contributions in the field of naval warfare. He designed the “Nautilus,” one of the first practical muscle-powered submarines, and worked on plans for underwater explosives.

Claude Shannon
(1916-2001)
American mathematician and information theorist (A Mathematical Theory of Communication), dies at 84
Biography: Claude Shannon was an American mathematician, electrical engineer, and cryptographer who is widely regarded as the “father of information theory.” His groundbreaking work laid the foundation for the digital revolution and has had far-reaching implications in various fields, including telecommunications, computer science, and data compression.
Shannon’s most influential work, “A Mathematical Theory of Communication” (1948), introduced the concept of entropy as a measure of information content and established the fundamental principles of information theory. This work provided a theoretical framework for understanding how information could be efficiently transmitted, stored, and processed, ultimately shaping the development of digital communication and computing systems.
In addition to his work in information theory, Claude Shannon made significant contributions to cryptography during World War II, helping to develop secure communication systems for the Allied forces.

Katherine Johnson
(1918-2020)
American NASA mathematician (portrayed in film Hidden Figures), dies at 101
Biography: Katherine Johnson was an American mathematician whose calculations were instrumental in the success of NASA’s early human spaceflight missions. She calculated the trajectory for Alan Shepard, the first American in space, and verified the calculations for John Glenn’s historic orbit around Earth. Her work was crucial for the Apollo Moon landing program and the early years of the Space Shuttle program.
Johnson was one of a small group of African-American women who worked as “human computers” at NASA, performing complex calculations that were critical for the success of space missions. Her story, along with those of fellow NASA mathematicians Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson, was told in the 2016 film Hidden Figures, based on a nonfiction book of the same name by Margot Lee Shetterly.
In recognition of her contributions to the space program, Johnson received numerous awards and honors, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Barack Obama in 2015.
THE DELIGHT OF SACRIFICE
“I will very gladly spend and be spent for you;” 2 Cor. xii. 15
When the Spirit of God has shed abroad the love of God in our hearts, we begin deliberately to identify ourselves with Jesus Christ’s interests in other people, and Jesus Christ is interested in every kind of man there is. We have no right in Christian work to be guided by our affinities; this is one of the biggest tests of our relationship to Jesus Christ. The delight of sacrifice is that I lay down my life for my Friend, not fling it away, but deliberately lay my life out for Him and His interests in other people, not for a cause. Paul spent himself for one purpose only – that he might win men to Jesus Christ. Paul attracted to Jesus all the time, never to himself. “I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.”
When a man says he must develop a holy life alone with God, he is of no more use to his fellow men: he puts himself on a pedestal, away from the common run of men. Paul became a sacramental personality; wherever he went, Jesus Christ helped Himself to his life. Many of us are after our own ends, and Jesus Christ cannot help Himself to our lives. If we are abandoned to Jesus, we have no ends of our own to serve. Paul said he knew how to be a “door-mat” without resenting it, because the mainspring of his life was devotion to Jesus. We are apt to be devoted, not to Jesus Christ, but to the things which emancipate us spiritually. That was not Paul’s motive. “I could wish myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren” – wild, extravagant – is it? When a man is in love it is not an exaggeration to talk in that way, and Paul is in love with Jesus Christ.

The Grunts Prayer
Oh Lord, thank you for granting me another day to stand up against the tyranny in the world today, blessing me with the will, strength and fortitude to continue walking, digging and fighting all over this once blessed United States of America. Please continue to help me carry this rucksack and weapon by walking beside me and lending your loving hand apon this yoke I proudly wear. Please bless me with a full ammo pouch and full canteen, one for the enemy around me the other for the enemy above, so that I may prevail against one and endure the other. Please bless me with the light of the moon and stars when I need them and clouds and rain when I desire cover from my enemies eyes. Please ensure my aim is true, that my creedo “One Shot, One Kill” is fullfilled, that my enemy does not suffer and their end is swift and complete. Please Lord, protect me from short rounds and friendly fire from my allies, so that I might continue to honor my oath to the Constitution of the United States of America. Last of all Lord please forgive me for what I must do, I only wished to be left alone, bask in the glory of your word and behold this beautiful world that you created for us but alas Evil has risen and I am compelled to smite it in your name.
Amen 🙏🏻
amen
Mornin’ all!
Heh!
More about the hostage rescue. Something positive to watch. A short interview with the heroes who rescued Louis and Fernando.
Thanks for the terrific video. I look forward to your posts every day
❤️
💪🥲❤️🙏🇮🇱💪 David: Thank you for sharing this powerful and moving video with all of us.
Shabbat Shalom (my time) and Shavuah Tov (your time soon) to you and all Israelis.

Thank you.
Often on the weekends, we have two meals of the day… a hearty breakfast and an early dinner… skipping lunch.
Today, I offer up one of our favorites:
Homemade German Rotkohl, beer brats, roasted turnips with fennel, and spaetzle.
You can take the families out of Germany, but you’ll never take Germany out of the families.
German Red Cabbage (Rotkohl)
3 strips thick Wright brand Hickory smoked bacon cooked but not to crispy, or equivalent cooked ham, or smoked sausage, chopped -(you can partially cook the bacon in the pot with your onions just chop it in 1 inch pieces to make it cook faster)
1/2 cup sweet walla walla onion, diced
4 cups red cabbage, chopped
1/2 cup red wine, I use Malbec, Chianti, or Shiraz
1/2 cup white grape or apple juice
1 tablespoon sugar, brown sugar, or honey
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 small bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 apple, I use Fuji, Gala, or Honeycrisp – firm, tart, sweet, peeled and chopped
Brown saute meat and onion for about 5 minutes, add cabbage and cook about 3 minutes.
Add fluids, sugar, spices and deglaze.
Add apple, cover tightly and simmer on stove top about 2 or 3 hours until tender and infused. Check occasionally and add apple or white grape juice if necessary to prevent from boiling off… keep fluids 1/2 inch deep.
Looks good.
Good Morning JWoo
Good afternoon, Monti. It’s an excellent recipe.
I would eat that! Yummy yummy (if I can lose the fennel) … licorice is odious to me
Hee hee…. I forgot about fennel for a long time. Tasty with turnips and on tater salads.
The first time I had spaetzle (as a side with my weiner schnitzel), are you ready for this…was in San Jose, Costa Rica….I have never forgotten that….it was so very delicious!
Had to be some Germans in that Costa Rican town, Aggie! Spaetzle is really very easy to make and you can do it in small batches, so no big leftovers. Just use a colander with holes that are about 1/4″ in diameter. The dough is thinner and a little messy, but you pour it into the colander and push it through with a plastic spatula into boiling broth. Cooks in about 3 minutes. Really simple and delicious side. You should try it. Aldi’s has some excellent Knockwurst, Bratwursts, etc.
Schnitzels are wonderful, too. Love the hunter gravy with lots of fresh cut mushrooms.
We need artisan beers and Octoberfest and Lederhosen for the guys. Ha ha!
Jaeger shnitzel is the absolute best!
❤️❤️❤️ 😋😋
German!
I knew there was something about you…..
My father was 3/4ths German. My paternal grandfather was 1/2 German and grandmother was ALL German. Grandma made the BEST German food I’ve ever tasted. They called Rohtkohl by some strange colloquial name – “Kedempkest” kraut (I never saw it written so that’s phonetically spelled). We had Blutwurst, Weisswurst, Bratwurst, Spaetzle, Gänsebraten, Sauerbraten (Baltimore style). … this brings back 65+ year old memories……
Blessings on you and your memories, Baritone. You named off some wursts that I’ve not heard of before.
Breaking bread in a family is a very important ritual. Memories of such can last 65 plus years as you have proven… which is what I hope for my own daughter.
Hugs to you friend.
Blutwurst = blood sausage (dark colored, made from pork rind, pork blood, seasoning, and various fillers depending on region, barley is common). Spanish version is Morcilla, which my wife doesn’t like. It’s not my favorite. 😁
Weisswurst = white sausage (very mild; made from veal & pork back.). It’s very tasty with applesauce and potato pancakes (kartoffeln). 😍
Happy “cartoons and cereal day” everyone.
for levi, and all other silent tree-branchers in our thoughts and prayers.
peace to all who gather here, and thank you Jesus for our joy in being together.
Amen. “and that’s all folks…” a happy and joyous day to you as well Slowcobra! Casco 🙂
Good afternoon, Slowcobra and Casco Bay Boy.
you 💘
Cool arrangement and the voices! Love big gravelly dude voice! Wow!
These girls are heading to the gym in case we have to beat up some illegals.
Kids going to have to go back to ortho doc in Monday for that ankle. It can’t be an old injury… that’s gotta be a fresh chip off the base of her fibula.
My heart is still shaky…. but we will spend time on weight machines and work on core strength while being careful with ankle and cardio.
I can still punch out some weights.
Strength … inside and out! Good for you.
My daughter overdoes it. She doesn’t realize that resistance catches up to you… later. It’s a great way to teach a teenager patience.
She beat me in H.O.R.S.E. Might have to do it again this evening.
Blessed Assurance
(do you need anything else?)
Greetings Treepers!

Good morning Frank

Day 8 – The Surrender Novena By Father Dolindo Ruotolo (1882-1970)
Let us begin, In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Close your eyes and let yourself be carried away on the flowing current of my grace; close your eyes and do not think of the present, turning your thoughts away from the future just as you would from temptation.
Repose in me, believing in my goodness, and I promise you by my love that if you say “You take care of it” I will take care of it all; I will console you, liberate you and guide you.
O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything!
This is a fascinating interview with a Palestinian who became Jewish. He grew up in Khan Yunis in Gaza. It’s a bit long but worth it in my opinion because it has a plot like a movie and highly educational about Gaza and their culture. I wanted to translate this guy for a while but backed off because I think that he is damaged and generalized them too much but see for yourself. I am glad that someone else translated it. Did a good job. A very special person.
For Lent, and for our era of raging evil, one of the greatest works in any genre: Julius Reubke’s Sonata on Psalm 94:
Introduction – Grave 1. O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God to whom vengeance belongeth, show thyself. 2. Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth; render a reward to the proud.
Larghetto – Allegro con fuoco (@ 3:25) 3. Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph? 6. They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless. 7. Yet they say, the Lord shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
Adagio ( @10:45) 17. Unless the Lord had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence. 19. In the multitude of my thoughts within me, thy comforts delight my soul.
Allegro – Allego assai (@ 16:53) 22. But the Lord is my defense, and my God is the rock of my refuge. 23. And He shall bring upon them, their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the Lord our God shall cut them off.
Julius Reubke was a German composer, who died of tuberculosis at age 24 in 1858. His early death is our great loss: he left behind only a literal handful of works.
But this piece showed a complete master at a young age!
I’ve been spending time in Psalm 94 these last few days. Thank you for sharing this, Ausonious
Verse of the Day for Saturday, February 24, 2024

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.”
Isaiah 55:8 (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.
BE MY VOICE
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
CHILD NOT CHOICE
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
LET GO AND LET GOD
From where did this concept come
Made up to release us say some
From what are we excused
How are we to be recused
If we can do nothing without God
Then letting go would be flawed
Truth be told on your own power
Eternal value will not flower
Are we so bold as to take credit
From He whose Spirit led it
Can we bring forth fruit from effort
Is it possible to accomplish befort
Letting go does not mean sitting back
Allowing God to take up the slack
Acknowledging His power to ease
Waiting for God to appease
If apart from Him we can do nothing
Then how do we accomplish something
We claim we are doing it for Him
How empty is this thoughtless whim
If we lean not on our own understanding
We open up to God’s mind-expanding
If we trust in God with all of our heart
Then we acknowledge Him from the start
We see His part in all of our ways
We need Him for all of our days
For without Him we will surely fail
In all we try we are beyond the pale
So what then are we letting go
Are we letting God manage the show
The struggle the strife of the fight
Are we attempting to take flight
If we are his hands and feet on earth
Are we missing the point of our worth
Can we operate alone in tact
Then go to God after the fact
So is letting God and letting go
Mean we play no part in the show
How can His kingdom ever come
If we let go before the job is done
What is it God wants us to do
What job has God given to you
What is it He commands
What is it God demands
Has He ever said you are on your own
I am here if you need Me on My throne
No He said Follow Me
And Be the Best you can be
Love Me with Mind, Heart, and Soul
Love your neighbor and be whole
Nothing is impossible for Me
Trust in Me and you will see
Let go of your arrogance and pride
Let Me live and in you abide
My Spirit will guide you throughout
Show you what My will is all about
So let go and let Me show you the way
The truth and the light when you pray
Acknowledge Me in all that you do
Allow Me the pleasure of seeing you thru

Good morn, sis 😘 Blessed are we by God Who has graciously placed us in one another’s paths. The company of like souls…and the love which flows through.
Gotta make a start on weeding and chopping. Taking it one stair at a time and trying not to see the whole “staircase “, which is depressing.
See you anon!!! 💕
But first!!! My Saturday delivery has arrived!!!

what a loving word garden to meander through Duchess blessings to you.
Can we pray for the family of a young 22 year old women who has been violently murdered at the hands of a Venezuelan illegal alien on the property of the University of Georgia. I feel horrible that I can reference her name, she is the young lady that did not return from a morning jog this past week. How difficult and sad it must be for her family to realize presidential policy allowed this young life to be taken so soon, and ultimately it could have been avoided.
The media has buried this story so that it does not gain momentum as the Kate Steinel, murder in San Fran did back in 15, let’s not let that happen with this young ladies tragic death.
Presidential “Policy” ? Hardly. More like Presidential LAW Breaking! Multiple Constitutional obligations have been summarily ignored, and gone unchallenged by a compliant feckless GOPe who just want cheap labor … no matter how many young women get raped and murdered. Our country is in the grips of PURE EVIL … sold as “compassion” for those poor third worlders. I pray for God’s deliverance
Actually, “presidential policy” is accurate. A “policy” is not by definition always legal. It’s simply the office holder’s preferred and ordered approach to some aspect of governance. There’s bad policy and good policy. Biden’s immigration policy (wide open borders) happens to be illegal but it will not be officially declared so and stopped until his Administration’s policy is challenged in court and ultimately subjected to a SCOTUS ruling.
Texas is not waiting for that thank goodness, but the policy continues with all other land border states – NM, AZ, CA, WA, ID, MT, ND, MN, MI, NY, VT, NH, and ME until they undertake the same close scrutiny and defensive actions as TX.

I don’t think we should have to pay taxes to a Corrupt Government that does not represent the best interests of U.S. citizens but does represent 20+ Million (and counting since OBiden took over) Illegal Aliens illegally entering our country! A Criminal Govt that has legalized counterfeiting money so they can give it to themselves. A Govt that illegally and unconstitutionally locked us down and told us to inject ourselves and our children with deadly poison! A Govt that has failed to uphold its oath of office, to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America! Please tell me how I am wrong?
Photoshop … or real … you decide
I guess: real
Unmanned camera; autofocus lens, hence the relatively shallow depth of field.
If it is photoshopped, it’s darn well done, looking at the sunlight on the antlers around the sun’s image, and the relative absence of pixel aberrations around all edges of the buck’s body and legs.
either way its beautiful
“Armed FBI soldiers terrorize young family during early morning raid on their home. The FBI lit up the 4-year-old son and mother with lasers as they raided the home after US veteran
” Something is very wrong in America today.”
“Annette later went public about the raid, “The FBI instructed Chris to come outside immediately. Our 4-year-old was awakened from the chaos, and I picked him up and ran downstairs to open the front door.
Our house, street and neighboring streets were completely surrounded by armed FBI and law enforcement. It was a scene that we see so many times in the movies, but now it was here at my house!
There were three large armored tactical vehicles parked on my front, side and back yard, and police vehicles that extended throughout the entire community. I open the door, and for a second, I didn’t realize that there were about twenty FBI SWAT Team members with semi-automatic rifles pointed at my son and I.
We were covered by the bright red lasers pointed at our faces, chests, and various points on our bodies.””

Per the article, the mother was pregnant and miscarried the next day…
Do the men and women of the FBI who do this have families? Are they so psychologically depraved or damaged they go home to theirs and not feel dirty? And ashamed?? On any level?
I just posted this on the PT…with a few choice thoughts of my own.
Suspect the next knock on my door will be the FBI.

As she begins that quest, she is greatly affected by her new golf Coach and teammates. This movie has several different messages regarding living the Christian life with the most prominent being two practical examples of what Jesus taught when He said to “do unto others as you would have them do unto you”.

EVENING PRAYER
COVID jabs are deadly bioweapons spreading disease and death to the world. Find out more at BiologicalWeapons.news.
(Natural News)—Up until now, most of the research exposing Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) “vaccines” as dangerous – and exposing those who take them as disease and death spreaders – has come from independent sources. Now, the truth is coming from the federal government and Big Tech.
It took the sleuthing public, including the diligent truth-seekers at the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) advocacy group, a while to find all this, but we now know from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) itself that mRNA gene therapy products like those manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna do, in fact, shed onto others from those who take them.
https://discernreport.com/proof-documents-from-fda-pfizer-show-that-covid-vaccine-shedding-is-real/
“… a Doctor by the name of Dr. Bryan Ardis is one of the most fascinating interviews that I’ve seen since the ‘COVID op’ was launched, and I happily listened to the entire nearly-hour long video in which Dr. Ardis shared with us all some must-learn information that I will break down for you in this story.
(Article by Stefan Stanford republished from AllNewsPipeline.com)”
“Starting out for us by taking us through a recent conference that he had participated in and a question he asked his audience, how many of you know someone who is taking the diabetes/weight loss drug ‘Ozempic,’ and having nearly everyone in the room raise their hands, the popularity of ‘Ozempic’ has been skyrocketing following several ‘celebrities’ admitting they’d used it to lose weight rapidly, while even the NY Times recently did a story about ‘Ozempic,’ reporting how ‘tech moguls’ and ‘influencers’ have been bragging about taking the injectable drug to also lose weight rapidly.
And while I myself have never even dreamed of taking a weight loss drug and in fact, have happily gotten myself off of all of the big pharma poisons I was taking several years ago, I found the discussion about ‘Ozempic‘ mind boggling when Dr. Ardis shared with us a fact that we can all confirm about ‘Ozempic’ ourselves in case we’re called ‘conspiracy theorists’: ‘Ozempic’ was created using the ‘venom’ of the ‘Gila monster,’ a desert dwelling reptile which has toxic and deadly venom.
With this story over at The Conversation reporting scientists found a hormone in the Gila monster’s venom called exendin-4 that could be used to treat type 2 diabetes, a hormone similar to one found in humans called GLP-1, which is released after eating and is important for controlling blood sugar levels in humans, for a short time all seemed great in the warped world of ‘big pharma‘ in that they found what many hoped would be a ‘miracle drug’ that could not only successfully treat diabetes, but also help people shed pounds rapidly, but of course, they didn’t take into account the many ‘side effects’ which come along for human beings with a drug created using the toxic venom of a deadly reptile.
https://biologicalweapons.news/2024-02-20-gila-monster-venom-in-weight-loss-drug.html
Captopril, the first ACE inhibitor, is a functional and structural analog of a peptide derived from the venom of the jararaca, a Brazilian pit viper (Bothrops jararaca). Lisinopril is a synthetic peptide derivative of captopril.

Jordan Peterson HUMBLES Stephen Fry About God

Very interesting discussion. I do hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Stephen Fry is an atheist, I like him as a creative entertaining person. I especially enjoyed his portrayal of Jeeves in the TV series, ‘Jeeves and Wooster’ based on the works of P.G. Wodehouse. If you have read C.S. Lewis I think you will find this video worth your time. I wish it were longer.
“Stephen Fry went on Irish TV and made strong claims about God, and many years later Jordan Peterson had him on his show and takes this opportunity to….”

“Creeping Tyranny In Canada — And The West | Josh & Nick Alexander | EP 399″
“419,275 views Nov 23, 2023 The Dr. Jordan B. Peterson Podcast
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with Save Canada organizers Josh and Nick Alexander. They discuss the resurgence of activism for Christian ideals and family values, the abhorrent response from administrative bodies, mainstream media, and law enforcement, the threats and physical violence levied against their family and organization, and what their battle really means for Canada and the world at large.
Josh Alexander is a 17-year-old Christian student activist.
Josh has been denied an education at the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board since November 2022, after speaking out against the radical left-wing gender ideology in schools.
After three arrests since February, one having been at his high school, Josh has continued to publicly uphold his convictions in the face of the rapidly developing censorious state.”
