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 †

BLIND, IRRATIONAL HATRED
A realization of what, or who “opposes” us….
We all suspected that FEMA employees were “overlooking” the destroyed houses of suspected supporters of President Trump.
Now we are seeing the beginning of official substantiation of that suspicion.
Ponder that for a moment.
The willful malevolence of government employees, whose (taxpayer funded) job it is, to assist those who are in desperate need, at possibly the most vulnerable time in their lives, executed with the heartless conduct of a sociopath.
That is the depth of the contempt that those “people” hold for us.
I guess it has been my own naivete, that prevented me from even seriously thinking that something like that was even possible.
Could anyone who is reading this, on this website, even entertain the idea of such behavior?
I already know the answer to that question.
Our “civilization” cannot sustain this mentality.
Something is going to have to “give”…
At least with the “battered syndrome”, there is usually an effort to conceal the intention to abuse another being, to try to not call attention to the mistreatment.
In my opinion, we have reached the point of no return.
In their zeal to “crush” their opposition, the communists will turn a blind eye to the barbarism of islam, until it is too late.
Or they will willfully recruit the savages, with nihilism as their agenda.
Either way, I think we are barreling headlong into a Cowboys vs communists/islamists scenario.
May God help us all
“We ain’t played cowboys and moslems yet …”
(one of those 5-guys-sitting-in-an-open-doored-airplane jokes)
Skip, you are still holding on to harmful wishes.
These feared atrocities have already happened. Not ‘will’, ‘have’.
They are, with full nihilist hearts, marching towards the absolute atrocities that both Communism and Islam are designed to accomplish.
Had a friend who said Missouri had a saying. ‘First time, your bad. Second time, my bad.’ It is about fighting those wishful feelings about the harmful other and preventing them from harming you again.
Aye Jim,
I guess I realized it a while ago, but the official confirmation of that suspicion kinda pimp slapped my psyche.
Thx 4 your response.
Best,
skipper

Good morning, Garrison 💕 So here we are, and I can hardly believe it…the final August CURSDAY!! Somewhere in America it is still International Dog Day. It has been said that dogs are earthly angels (I believe it) without wings. But I’m pretty certain that if we who have ever loved a dog narrow our gazes and look at them, we will see that a loving Father who created them has absolutely given them wings. For all our much loved companions…the ones who keep us company and the ones who have left paw prints on our hearts. I suggest tissues may come in handy at the end of this week’s contributions…

Morning, Patience 💕☕ Of COURSE Tasha Tudor drew this…wherever Colkitto may be, he would approve. As do I. I believe I will linger here awhile (sigh).

One stick is never ever enough
Oh dear Gussie, nim…
Bets,
I used to try to explain to the young people wanting to direct me to the self checkout that their jobs were on the line, and that I was protecting them by not using those horrible things.
Now, I won’t use them on general principal. I am not an employee.

complete hose off,
shampoo,
rinse,
another shampoo,
another rinse,
then conditioner,
and another hose off.

local map…
to find a lake with a SANDY beach.😂
Part of the deal, zoom 😉👍🏻 Why do I get the feeling you’ve lived it 🤔💕
All in all, worth the work to have a dog full of joy…and to fill you with some as well knowing you are giving him his best life 😊
many years ago, i would run my dog early at a local dog friendly golf course.
it was a university town, but still the VERY rural midwest.
lived fairly close by, but drove because my morning schedule was usually pretty tight
and had to beat the course’s opening hours anyway.
the course had a lovely pond, lined with a wide border of cattails
(don’t know how the golfers felt about that!😆), and it also bordered a wildlife area.
very picturesque – you frequently saw deer in the morning mist,
and at one dogleg, the grazing cattle herd of an adjacent farm.
so, off we went one morning and all was well until my dog disappeared into the cattails.
not really worried, she had been trained not to pursue large mammals of any kind
(an absolute necessity in farming country as it’s entirely legal to shoot any dog harassing livestock),
no venomous snakes in the region, sun was pretty much up so the skunks and possums were back home,
didn’t hear any signs of a scuffle, that sort of thing.
but when she didn’t “check back in”, i headed closer towards the pond and called.
and, bless her heart, she came…
covered head to toe in the black, rotting carcass of what my best guess was deer.
and when i say covered, i mean drenched – head to toe, every square inch –
in a coating so thick it was literally dripping off of her.
and it STANK.
stank to where you had to cover your nose if you came within 6 feet.
she was very pleased.
and what could i say?
i managed to get out a “good dog” for the prompt recall but i had a big problem.
if i put her back in the car, any future resale value would have plummeted.😂
so we walked.
me and a dog who was carrying at least 10 pounds of ground in, rotted deer intestines,
fecal matter, and whatever else on her, and who was rather proud of it.
two full baths later, i had missed all of that morning’s classes – and the smell still lingered for a week!
i went back for the car and promptly found another nature walk for the mornings after that.
and so, Miss Betsy, Jake, and JIT, that is the historical basis for my bathing comment –
to this day even skunkings don’t phase me when compared to that morning’s adventure.
i do give props to the rotting fish incidents though, that indeed takes some effort to neutralize!
wishing you all a wonderful day.😁
Oh boy, dear zoom!! What a story! Pretty sure I can smell her from here 😂, though I know at the time it was anything but funny. Missed all your classes, did you? All I can say to that is “Priorities, priorities!”
And as everything is relative, I take your point. Bring on the skunks I say!
(Couldn’t help but remember your comment… last week was it, the time is getting away from me…about the directions our conversations hare off in. Makes for interesting back and tos and for memory sharing, which is one of the best aspects of being a resident in this Tree of ours and as we each have so many. And it helps us to get to know one another better, which is a very real blessing I think 💕👍🏻)
😊
My dog will find one dead decaying fish on miles of sandy beach and roll in it. It makes for a miserable ride home and he still stinks a bit after all those shampoos and rinses. To get even I put a bit of aftershave on his fur where he can’t lick it, dogs hate what we think smells good.
How about tomato juice, which I understand is the cure all for a dog’s encounter with a skunk 🤔
I think it helps with dead fish smell too, but in neither case is it a cure all. Lots of work required. And even repeat baths.
Makes sense to me, Jim.
Not sure that would work on gelitanous fish. It’s nowhere near the same thing.
Soap first, tomato juice as a finisher perhaps? Worth a try for the lack of any other alternatives 😁💕
Whatever you do, it should not involve vanilla extract. Our Rhodododo (Rhodesian Ridgeback) smelled
like a very bad cookie for a month.
So my Great Dane pups gambols up to the Skunk. Skunk held her ground and squirted her. I watched this from the porch.
‘such things happen … this is farm life .. now she knows’ I thought to myself as the Dane stood still for a moment with a puzzled look on her face.
Then – much to the astonishment of the skunk — she ran back to chase the skunk again, So the skunk ran underneath my brand new Dodge Ram 2500 King Cab truck – and from that vantage point really let go with everything she had.
Then and only then the Dane got the message and ran back to the porch where I stood horrified, with a poor-little-help-me look on her face.
Tomato juice & baking soda & full immersion in the tub right up to the head with generous washing of that long snout and forehead fixed the doggy smell.
As for the truck … which was my only vehicle to drive to work … it was absolutely awful.
Never have I been so desperate to join Witness Protection …
I shouldn’t laugh. Skunk is not funny. But the picture you painted…no new truck smell for you. Dang!!!! I am curious how long it took to dissipate 🤔
You win, FFA!
My worst was a baby skunk who most likely got in through a kitty door that goes to an outside kitty enclosure.
Two am and the dogs and cats are racing around the dining room with this scared little skunk shooting the entire wad. He hid for the longest time, but finally came out from behind some furniture and we threw a quilt over him (long since burned!), bundled him up, and got him outside to release.
Took me weeks and a few gallons of peroxide on the hard surfaces to make things bearable. Just threw out rugs, chair pads etc.
PS the door to the kitty enclosure is now closed when evening arrives!
i commiserate with you, Jake!😂
check out above reply to Betsy.😆
Back when Lake Erie had shores full of dead fish, our Labrador loved caring for its coat by rolling around in them.
that’s just being a good Lab.😂
but apparently he didn’t understand you’re supposed to EAT the fish oil, not APPLY it? 😂
🤣🤣🤣
YAY!!!
Already past that, 7:49 was today’s official sunset. <sigh>
Tho that is a little tricky here, sun “sets” behind mountains, so it is still light for 20ish minutes before darkness sets in.
Now, if you are in London & that same latitude Today is last 8:00 pm sunset.
Looking at some of my old home places, 8:00 pm sunset is Sept 12 or 13.
Same goes for sunrise, rises behind mountains so it is a rather long “twilight?” for both

I was in Scotland on my first trip to the UK, Magic, in July 1986, on a tour of various parts, having a lovely drink in the hotel we were staying in. And (as one does when time is not of the essence) decided to have one more before the sun went down. Only it didn’t. I looked at my watch and it was around 10…PM! Still bright with no indication night would fall. Whoa…
The start of my real world education I guess you could describe it. My first winter in Wales later that year saw it go dark starting around 3:30 in the afternoon. I completely get it!! ☕💕
I remember…
Is that Rin Tin Tin?
Yes ma’am it is 😊👍🏻💕
Rinny!!!
Tête a tête
I hope readers can embiggen this chart…for the record, our granddog Maggie, a poodle/something else mix, resembles the one on the far left (not ideologically, mind 😎😁).
Oooooops!!!! Not far.left!! FAR RIGHT!!! And yes, ideologically as well.
(Mercy Maude, Bet!! Caffeinate yourself for Pete’s sake!!)
I sure think so.
Judges, too, but on other charges…like perverting the course of justice (of which we seem to have none anymore).
We would have no one in Congress!
I’m looking for a downside….can’t find one.
I pretty much agree but then the deep state entrenched beauracracy would run everything.
I think we have that anyway, dear sir. I’m getting a whiff of the burning residue of the Constitution, lit afire long before now.
Right on!
Afternoon Dear Sis
You never cease to amaze! Endless thank yous. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I couldn’t agree more – most of Congress belongs in the “big house ” and if wishes came true, they could share a cell with Dr. Death.
And…..speaking of that despicable creature, let’s turn the empty cavernous Capitol building into a beautiful state of the art Animal Rescue and Shelter, and name it Snoopy’s Haven to commemorate the innocent beagles Fauci tortured to death. 😢
And, as an added benefit, we can enlist those on endless government handouts to cleanup and other duties in order to qualify for the taxpayer largesse.
I vote Aye!
God gives us so many examples of his love, now and what is to come.
Thank you for sharing with us many of those Betsy.❤️
You are most welcome, dear sister…truly 💕 And yes, He most assuredly does 😌
Thank you Betsy for posting these pics of the dogs every Thursday. I sure do miss our girl, Ruby.
I’ve sadly come to the conclusion that dogs are typically more faithful than most people.
You’re so welcome. Every week I get a bit anxious when I start out again with my little meme basket looking for the next week’s because I know friends enjoy them, and I don’t want to disappoint. As I’ve said before, for some reason cats are in abundance. Dogs less so. Thank goodness for International Dog Day!! 😁💕
(I can’t disagree with you.)
Doubtful you could disappoint us Betsy.
God’s given you a gift that unites us here and it goes beyond pictures.
We are so grateful.
❤️
I should add, I know that sort of missing, my friend 💔
The pain never goes away, neither does the joy of loving them.
Oh my heart, dear brother………….no, it does not, for my own and especially for your sweet girl Trouble. Every time I see you I think of her with you.. You are such a good man with a awfully big heart. Billy Graham a was so certain he would see his much loved companions again. So sure…I clicked g to that for you, DG. thank you for posting these sweet photos of her (tissue, please) 🙏🏻💕😌
So sorry for the inexplicable typo, DG…I was having a hard time seeing what I was typing. You know…..
I love you Betsy Jones,
and I say this trusting that my words will not be misconstrued.
I truly admire how you use words, most uplifting, and also in tearing down; the way you don’t mince words when it comes to both preserving freedom and speaking out against barbaric oppression.
As I still struggle with mastering agape love (I am working on it with help from the Holy Spirit), I raise my glass in a toast to you and the many Treepers I have come to love in similar fashion.
God bless you all.
I don’t know what to say, Peace Keeper…you have stunned me and made my day so much better, my friend. You can’t imagine how much. Of course I don’t take your words in any other way than I know how you meant them; and I thank you from my heart.
And how right you are about our Treehouse brothers and sisters, commenters and management alike. I’ve often said that each of us individually at different times were led to this place of camaraderie, knowledge, and caring. I feel that for myself, and hope you do as well. Everyone is a blessing in his her own right and in different ways. As is this place of refuge. Bless you….💕 Bet (as I am to my friends, dear sir)
(As for your struggle, so do we all I think…or as I have always said for myself, walking in faith, tripping constantly 🙏🏻)
I am without words, bet, except to say you are a gem.
I found this lovely clip today. I wasn’t searching for it. It just fell into my lap. But I know it wasn’t by chance.
(I hope you see this one, dear Pat 💕)
Oh Betsy, thank you. I am having a hard time typing between the tears! Where did those tissues go? My Beau is beginning to gray around the muzzle. He was about 10 months old when I got him at the shelter 5 years ago, but we do not know how long he was a stray and what hardships he endured before the shelter picked him up off the street. He is terribly afraid of feet, especially when he is sleeping or laying down and you approach too quickly. He also runs when I swat flies or other bugs. I think he was probably abused by the way he acts. I think this may be why he is graying so soon. His early life must have been very unpleasant, hurtful and frightening for him. At least he has had a good life here with me and he gives me many laughs, love and companionship. I am forever grateful to have been able to rescue so many dogs, cats and even a few horses and a few goats.
Have a wonderful and blessed day.
I had a difficult time posting it, Pat. As hard as when I watched it, heard the name of Mr Stewart’s beloved dog, and heard his voice crack as he tried to retain hos composure. I knew you would react as you have, knowing how precious and watchful for you your Beau is. I’ve always thought there has to be a designated hottish area in the Afterlife reserved for anyone who abuses children or animals in this one. My heart is shredded into bits when I read of such.
God bless you always, dear friend, for who you are in your compassion for those who desperately need it…and the love you give. I say the same for Corny. There is a cost of course, but could you do anything less?? I know you could not 😘
Imagine having a past life as a happy dog…
How how HOW have I never been aware of this movie?????!!! Peter O’Toole was one of the finest actors ever to live. The short two minutes has made me desperate to see it, Rocket. THANK YOU!!! 💕☕

Rowland Hill
(1795-1879)
English inventor who introduced 1st adhesive postage stamp (1840), dies at 84
Biography: Rowland Hill was an English teacher and social reformer, best known for his overhaul of the postal system in the United Kingdom. He argued that cheaper postage would encourage a greater use of the system which would ultimately result in increased profits.
Hill also proposed the use of an adhesive stamp to show that the sender had paid for their postage in advance. He is thus regarded as the inventor of the postage stamp, among many other aspects of the modern postal service.
27 August
Brian Epstein
(1934-1967)
English music entrepreneur and manager (Beatles), dies of an accidental barbiturate overdose at 32
Biography: After being discharged from the army, in part due to his homosexuality, and then pursuing training as an actor, Brian Epstein joined his family’s retail business, running their North End Music Store (known as NEMS). He expanded the inventory from pianos and radios to include records, while also writing a column in ‘Mersey Beat’ a local music magazine.
After a customer request for an early recording that the Beatles made backing Tony Sheridan in Germany, Epstein went to see the group perform. He immediately saw their potential and with no experience in the business, became their manager. He polished their image and secured a proper record contract. The success he had with the Beatles enabled him to expand his roster of clients to include other Liverpudlian acts: Gerry and the Pacemakers, Cilla Black, and Billy J. Kramer and The Dakotas.
As the Beatles ceased touring, Epstein’s role with the band diminished. His dependence on amphetamines and sleeping pills caught up with him and he died from an accidental combination of alcohol and sedatives.

Cereal boxes the same!
Yes, the cereal boxes around here got taller and thinner. Now they don’t fit in any of the cupboards and have less cereal in them. Going to walmart is not cheap! Their cereal and everything else has really gone up in price.
Here is one that was inexplicable, raised the price & made the package taller….. but at least they did not “shrinkflation” it, was still 1lb.

My Hunter, he is the sweetest dog you would ever want to meet, loves everybody, person or dog.
Beautiful dogs!
Jake, Charlie has an alpha dog expression and ear set.
Hunter is a beta.
Amazing, the difference.
Beautiful dogs.
Hunter isn’t beta, he just doesn’t care, it’s weird most dogs that are aggressive and bullies just leave him alone. In the almost 8 years I’ve had him he had gotten mad at three dogs, all that nipped him hard, almost a bite. He went at them like Cujo and drove them off including a Cane Corso a little over a year old. Hunter never starts anything.
my son has 2 brittanys–they’re kinda nitwits but they do hunt
Their prey drive is very strong. Yes they are funny, silly, excitable and overly energetic, but don’t ever think they are stupid, they are not.
That’s kinda the def of a beta, hon. 😁
Alphas always gotta alpha.
Betas say, meh.

Jesus said to his disciples: “Stay awake! For you do not know on which day your Lord will come. Be sure of this: if the master of the house had known the hour of night when the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and not let his house be broken into. So too, you also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.
“Who, then, is the faithful and prudent servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household to distribute to them their food at the proper time? Blessed is that servant whom his master on his arrival finds doing so. Amen, I say to you, he will put him in charge of all his property. But if that wicked servant says to himself, ‘My master is long delayed,’ and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with drunkards, the servant’s master will come on an unexpected day and at an unknown hour and will punish him severely and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.”

“Nessun dorma” gets me every time. The musical equivalent of soaring – though i know that makes little sense. ❤️

Thank You Mo
We were missing you
in today’s Federal Register the Dept. of Justice published a report issued to Congress relating to the reasons for records released with redactions in the matter of what a lot like to call the Epstein Files; in the post the Dept includes the 6-page appendix detailing the legal basis for the redactions:

Afternoon Dear Patience
Love your doggos today!
We could sure use some of the wet stuff here, and when we do get it, Woo Hoo! Kari and Kelli are out running in it, savoring every moment – sans raincoat!
Here in central Indiana the Lunar eclipse tonight begins at 9:38 tonight and peaks at 12:12.

‘You Love Me More Than I Love Me’ by Harmony Lines is out now! Dive into this raw, emotional track about finding your way back to yourself through love.
Why You Need a Purpose Working The Life Every Man Needs — A traditional, Alan Jackson-style country song about the value of hard work, family, and having a purpose. Doing nothing brings trouble, but getting up, earning your keep, and being someone your boss and family can count on gives life real value and peace of mind. When you get down the road, you’ll be able to look back on a job well done.
A heartfelt, 70s country-pop patriotic ballad thanking Elon Musk for standing tall when America needed it most. From defending free speech to reaching for the stars, God blessed him with the wisdom, intelligence, and kindness to help keep our nation upright. No accident he is here for such a time as this. God Bless America with people like you!
Grace for the Journey (After Christ) | A Soft Spoken Sermon & Song If you are carrying the weight of a painful past, broken marriage, or old guilt today, this gentle message is for you. God said He hates divorce because of the heartbreak it causes—but He never said He hates the divorcee. In Christ, your “B.C.” (Before Christ) life is washed away, and your “A.C.” life is brand new. You are fully forgiven, loved, and held by a God who is simple, not complex. If you are in a situation that threatens your safety or well-being, don’t carry that burden alone—seek wise counsel, lean on the Holy Spirit as your Helper, and surround yourself with a Spirit-filled church family.
Half the story isn’t history—it’s half a truth.” History textbooks shouldn’t be about convenient narratives or leaving out the pages that don’t fit a polished story. When we teach the 1960s and 70s agricultural shift, our kids deserve the whole picture: the political backers, the outside pressure groups, the local workers who just wanted to harvest, and the thousands of family farmers who lost their deeds to corporate giants.
We don’t need rewritten history to change the past—we need rewritten history books to tell the truth, backed up by the paper trail and the receipts.
Why nobody should ever indulge the urge to be nudged by some celebrity they love for their talent, because the object of their affection can be fooled or paid,
Dolly Parton was a “pharma pusher” for her televised COVID-19 vaccination. She donated $1 million to Moderna’s vaccine and sang a controversial rewrite of “Jolene” “Vaccine, Vaccine”.

homer d, calling Dolly a ‘pusher’ seems extreme.
She was duped just like a large part of the population and the medical community.
I just copied and pasted that.
I didn’t edit it,
The narrative is less than the video if it’s not AI.
I never follow any influencer’s recommendation of any product.
There is never any accountability.
Being duped or being paid to lie or promote is not without consequences for somebody who takes the message to heart.
Who can forget Stephen Colbert’s VAX-SCENE dance number or the New York Mayor offering fries and a burger?

Already Answered Prayers Just like a parent looking at a child who keeps asking the same question, sometimes God looks down at our repeated prayers and asks: “What did I say?” We pray wanting God to bend His universe to fit our desire, but God’s Word is already settled. He doesn’t change His mind to fit our excuses—He changes our hearts to fit His truth. “God is not a man, that he should lie… hath he said, and shall he not do it?” — Numbers 23:19 “What Did I Say?” — A spoken-word sermon ballad on the unchanging truth of God’s Word.
