"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts."
This Shakespearean quote has been flitting through my mind every so often lately. So many thoughts, some brought on by way of someone else via email, text or a Facebook message. Others, word association, maybe? What does one do when life presents an exit from one's current stage while not knowing when your character is needed again? Is there a reprisal of your role? Will there be a reprisal? A new beginning, a new character perhaps? Will there be travel soon? What happens then? The anxiety, even fear sometimes is overwhelming.
I never used to be easily overwhelmed. It was one thing I never realised about myself in time. In time to savour and relish that it was indeed a strength of character. See, that's the thing about being a chronically ill person. You never quite know what you will be like, feel like, on any given day. You try your damnest to be 'normal' only to pay a cost no one else would see behind your closed doors, whimpering into your pillow from the burning pain, maybe for a day but usually several. The fear of making a fool of yourself in polite company. The anxiety of being capable of holding a conversation, to follow, to participate in. What if my words come out wrong? Or worse, what if they weren't meant to come out and remain thoughts, captured and stuck in the space inside my brain?! And then there is the internal cringing feeling we experience when we see your face change and we know you do not want to be here with us. Why does it make you so uncomfortable? Do my illnesses make you uneasy? Does it make you uncomfortable? Why? Because I remind you of your own mortality and it is a fact you do not want to think about, let alone acknowledge?
Being laid up in bed for a few days has made me wonder, ponder and contemplate on much lately. Sometimes life seems to present you with a plethora of choices that aren't so clear. Nothing is so neat and tidy as you wish it would be. Nothing defined or explained. No instruction manual. How do you find clarity? A buddy and fellow Dercum's Disease patient and I commiserated over the women we used to be before our diagnosis. And how no one seems to get what that 'exit' from our lives means to us or does to us. How it baffles us at times. How it destroys us on the inside to be treated like idiots. Granted, we now look at the world through different eyes. We've had a taste of death. We are surrounded by it in our small, mostly online community of fellow patients. One day you are laughing over something silly on Facebook and then in a day or two, you hear that person has passed on. Rushed to the hospital where of course, they could do nothing because more often than not, they do not know what to do. So, yes. We tend to place different values on things. We may even value something others may scoff at. These online groups of support often offer the only venue for most of us to find a safe place to vent, to grieve, to find understanding or even bitch about something without being judged. We learn from each other's experiences. We finally know that someone else 'gets it'. We may seem the fools in this play of life. We see beyond what you and others see. We do not want to be clingy. We just want to enjoy your company for as long as we can because the memories made together with you will be what carries her and I, and the rest of us in these pockets of online communities, through our dark days of debilitating pain. Because affection and love truly are the balms that heal. The very last thing we want to be is a burden in any way to any one.
When we post articles on Facebook listing Dercum's Disease as the third most painful illness in the world or how a 26 year old died from Addison's Disease, we're not asking for your pity. We are asking you to understand. To please not judge us as lazy, incompetent, flaky or stupid. I once explained to Brett that when that particular wave of pain begins – we call them flares – it is like our skin is being set on fire. It burns through into our bone. As it happens, we hear no conversation, we see nothing and we barely breathe because nothing else seems to exist except the pain. Our brain becomes numb. Our speech slurred. Our motor skills severely impaired. So we medicate to help ease that pain. Unfortunately, most of the medications for pain at this level leaves you a little loopy. Or a lot loopy as the case may be. What are we to do? What are our spouses and loved ones to do?
We shuffle along, trying as much as we can, as hard as we can, for as long as we can, to follow you, our loved ones, along this journey of life. Sometimes we falter and fall, sometimes badly, and yes, it will inconvenience you. It will rob you of social time with friends. It may require you to leave work early to rush to our side. But please know, we realise this. We see this. And by God, we so appreciate this! All we ask is that you don't eventually resent us for it. But remember us pre-diagnosis, pre-medications. Who we really are. Not who our illness or illnesses have made us become. Because, if you forget and you say words that cut us, is heart breaking to us, that basically strips us of our reason to want to hang around, we shut down. The very reason we want to hang around is to have some more time to experience life with *you*. You are our reason/s. We have already exited the stage in many ways. We are reduced to nothing in some people's eyes; some inanimate, burdensome prop in the scene sets of your life.
There may be times when life's script requires some of us to leave the stage. Our time will have come. Us leaving or facing the reality of that fact daily would be made so much easier knowing you enjoyed being on that stage with us. Saying our lines, laughing at the comedy, crying at the tragedy, dancing around ill constructed trees and singing our hearts out albeit out of tune. Who cares if we're out of tune! We were not alone on that stage trying to complete a show. We were together making the show a show! That, in the end, is what matters most. That we are a part of your lives too as you are ours. Know that without you, the show would not have gone on.

China Sparks Wide Sell-Off
Sudden Rate Hike Spurs Fear of Drop in Giant's Growth; Emerging Currencies Pull Back
China surprised investors by raising interest rates Tuesday, sparking a world-wide sell-off in stocks, commodities and emerging-markets currencies as investors lowered their expectations for Chinese growth, which has been seen as a key driver of the global economy.
China's central bank announced it would raise key rates by a quarter percentage point, the first move since it cut rates in December 2008. While many investors had been expecting China to raise interest rates in coming months, the timing of the move was unexpected. It is viewed as the first in a series of interest rate increases.
----- Investors were split on the impact China's move will have on currency diplomacy. Tensions have been building as a result of the money flooding into emerging markets, driving up the currencies of countries such as Brazil and South Korea against the dollar.
Because China effectively pegs the yuan to the dollar, exporters in those countries have been losing competitiveness against China, their chief rival in the global markets. In response, many governments have been pushing back against the tide of money boosting their currencies.
Those issues were front and center Tuesday.
Brazil raised the tax on foreign investment in Brazilian bonds. And in Seoul, the South Korean finance minister said the government was considering reinstating a withholding tax on foreign investors' holdings in some Korean securities.
The impact of China's rate rise was also felt in the commodity markets, where Chinese demand plays a significant role in setting prices.
Oil prices suffered their biggest decline in eight months, losing more than 4% to $79.49. Gold, which set a record high last week, fell $36.10 per troy ounce, or 2.63% to $1335.10.
Stocks, too, took a hit, although the sell-off in the U.S. was also fueled by renewed concerns about the impact that home loan foreclosure problems will have on banks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 1.5% to close at 10978.62.
Now more on Germany's surrender to the French. Der Spiegel takes up the case.

Berlin's Quest for Tough Euro Zone Rules Has 'Failed Spectacularly'
Germany has caved in to France on the reform of the euro zone's Stability Pact by agreeing to jettison plans for automatic sanctions against countries that breach budget rules. The EU is in danger of breaking its promise to get its house in order in the wake of the Greek crisis, say German commentators.
Europe's attempt to adopt strict new budget rules to prevent a repeat of the euro debt crisis has suffered a setback because Germany has given in to France on the key issue of imposing automatic sanctions against deficit wrongdoers, German commentators say.
Following talks between France and Germany, EU finance ministers meeting in Luxembourg on Monday agreed on a compromise under which ministers from member states will continue to have a say in whether fines should be imposed -- a level of political involvement that commentators fear could leave the reformed pact almost as toothless as the old one.
Germany had backed a proposal by the European Commission for an automatic process of sanctions to kick in at a certain point if countries persistently exceed the EU's budget deficit ceiling of 3 percent of GDP. France opposed that change, and got its way. In return, France agreed to a medium-term amendment of the EU treaty to allow the bloc to withdraw voting rights from member states that break the rules. But it will take years for the amendment to be agreed and ratified.
France, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece opposed the plan for automatic penalties, part of a set of proposals submitted by the Commission last month. Its aim had been to lessen the power of member governments to block penalties against themselves, as had happened repeatedly in recent years.
Until now, countries have routinely evaded punishment under the existing Stability and Growth Pact, the 1997 accord designed to underpin the euro by enforcing fiscal discipline in the bloc. Observers say the EU urgently needs tough and credible new rules, especially giving mounting concern over Ireland's deficit troubles.
Supporters of tough reforms had their chance to impose them in the spring, when the bloc was in the throes of the Greek debt crisis and there was a greater sense of urgency. They missed that opportunity, say commentators writing in Germany's newspapers on Tuesday.

NY Fed, investors pressuring B. of A.
Big bank asked to repurchase billions of dollars in home loans
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Bank of America Corp. has been hounded for months by demands to repurchase billions of dollars in home loans backing mortgage securities. On Tuesday, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York emerged as one of the sources of this pressure.
The New York Fed is part of an investor group that owns more than 25% of the voting rights in over $47 billion of residential mortgage-backed securities issued by Countrywide Financial, the home loan giant that Bank of America /quotes/comstock/13*!bac/quotes/nls/bac (BAC 11.80, -0.54, -4.38%) acquired in 2008.
On Monday, the group wrote to Countrywide Home Loan Servicing and Bank of New York Mellon Corp. /quotes/comstock/13*!bk/quotes/nls/bk (BK 25.99, -0.63, -2.37%) , the trustee of the mortgage securities, saying they haven't been serving the loans backing the securities properly.
The investors asked Bank of New York to demand the repurchase of loans that were originated "in violation of underwriting guidelines," according to a statement Monday by Kathy Patrick of law firm Gibbs & Bruns, which is representing the group.
The seller of any "ineligible or predatory" mortgages should also pay the cost of modifying them for homeowners, or buy those loans back from the pools of collateral backing the securities, she added.
Below, some of the reality behind the Fed's pressure. Even so, my guess is that the lawyers will file to get at least as far as discovery. My guess is that at that point the banksters will start to cave in Goldman Sachs style. Still 500 million here, 500 million there, and pretty soon we're talking another TARP bank bailout.

PIMCO, NY Fed Pressuring BofA to Repurchase Dud Mortgages (Empty Threats Edition)
As dramatic as this headline sounds, there is much less here than meets the eye. In addition, either the article that discussed this development is confused, or the underlying legal pressure is not well framed.
First, let's get to the report, which certainly sounds serious. BusinessWeek reports that PIMCO, BlackRock, and the New York Fed are pushing Bank of America to repurchase the delinquent mortgages underlying $47 billion of bonds:
----- Note several things before we go any further: first, this is NOT litigation, it's a mere nastygram. Second, this is almost certain to be a new strategy in a effort mounted by an investor group (presumably now identified to turn up the heat on BofA) which so far has gotten nowhere. An unidentified group tried pressuring the trustee of a similar amount of bonds to direct the repurchase of loans gone bad. The trustee said it wasn't going to do anything. So now the same line is being tried on the servicer, Countrywiide, this time alleging that it is Countrywide's responsibility to buy back the loans.
Also observe that the argument is that the Bank of America Countrywide unit violated its servicing obligations:
Countrywide also hasn't met its contractual obligations as a servicer because it hasn't asked for repurchases itself and is taking too long with foreclosures, either because of document or process mistakes or because it doesn't have enough staff to evaluate borrowers for loan modifications, Patrick said. If the issues aren't fixed within 60 days, BNY Mellon should declare Countrywide in default of its contracts, she said.
This part verges on comical. As much as we support the idea of having more servicers do loan mods (and having an investor group push for loan mods vitiates one of the servicer excuses, that investors will protest), this legal strategy looks barmy. First, Countrywide can demand repurchases only in the case of origination defects. Even though those arguably took place, given the recent revelation in FCIC testimony that pre-sale examination of many subprime pools revealed that the a significant portion of loans fell short of the stipulated standards, that fact set does not map into a neat or lucrative legal action. This is considered to be what is called a representation and warranty breach; they are costly to fight and don't produce large settlements because the plaintiffs have to argue their case on a loan-by-loan basis and prove each default was the result of bad underwriting, not expected losses (remember these were risky loans) or bad luck (much higher than expected unemployment). The cost of loan-by-loan analysis means any litigation is very expensive and burdensome to win.
In addition, Countrywide did not make the reps and warranties about the loans, so its liability is going to be far less than the liability of the originator. However, the legal strategy appears to be to demand Countrywide put the breached loans (assuming a breach) back to the seller and, when they fail to do that, to sue them for breach of contract.
The odds are high that Countrywide was the seller of the loans – they issued many deals themselves.
The absurdity of this strategy is that they are asking Countrywide as servicer to put the loans back to Countrywide as seller.

Today bad boy China again. This time allegedly cutting off the USA and EU fromvital supplies of rare earth elements. A real embargo or posturing for the upcoming G-20 summit? A flexing of muscles to get proper respect from the world's biggest debtor, or has the new Emperor finally turned and got sick of playing second fiddle to an increasingly suicidal USA? Time will tell, although whatever the reason, it's a timely reminder to the west to start making strategic funding available to get some western mines into production to break China's monopoly. Use defensive tariffs, if need be, should China adopt predatory pricing later to try to drive out other competition.

China Said to Widen Its Embargo of Minerals
By KEITH BRADSHER Published: October 19, 2010
HONG KONG — China, which has been blocking shipments of crucial minerals to Japan for the last month, has now quietly halted shipments of those materials to the United States and Europe, three industry officials said on Tuesday.
The Chinese action, involving rare earth minerals that are crucial to manufacturing many advanced products, seems certain to further intensify already rising trade and currency tensions with the West. Until recently, China typically sought quick and quiet accommodations on trade issues. But the interruption in rare earth supplies is the latest sign from Beijing that Chinese leaders are willing to use their growing economic muscle.
"The embargo is expanding" beyond Japan, said one of the three rare earth industry officials, all of whom insisted on anonymity for fear of business retaliation by Chinese authorities.
They said Chinese customs officials imposed the broader restrictions on Monday morning, hours after a top Chinese official summoned international news media Sunday night to denounce United States trade actions.
China mines 95 percent of the world's rare earth elements, which have broad commercial and military applications, and are vital to the manufacture of products as diverse as cellphones, large wind turbines and guided missiles. Any curtailment of Chinese supplies of rare earths is likely to be greeted with alarm in Western capitals, particularly because Western companies are believed to keep much smaller stockpiles of rare earths than Japanese companies.
China experts said on Tuesday that Beijing's assertive stance on rare earths might also signal the ascendance of economic nationalists, noting that the Central Committee of the Communist Party convened over the weekend.
Officials at the media relations office of China's commerce ministry did not respond all day on Tuesday to e-mail or telephone calls seeking confirmation of the expanded embargo.
A few rare earth shipments to the West have been delayed by customs officials in recent weeks, said industry officials in China, Japan and the United States, but new restrictions on exports appear to have been imposed on Monday morning.
Industry executives said there had been no signal from Beijing of how long rare earth shipments intended for the West would be held by Chinese customs officials. Nor is it clear if occasional shipments are still being allowed out of the country, or if all shipments have now been suspended.
Word of the blocked shipments emerged from industry officials on Tuesday after an official China newspaper reported earlier in the day that Beijing planned next year to further reduce its annual export quota for rare earths.
The signals of a tougher Chinese trade stance come after American trade officials announced on Friday that they would investigate whether China was violating World Trade Organization rules by subsidizing its clean energy exports and limiting clean energy imports. The inquiry includes whether China's steady reductions in rare earth export quotas since 2005, along with steep export taxes on rare earths, are illegal attempts to force multinational companies to produce more of their high-technology goods in China.
Despite a widely confirmed suspension of rare earth shipments from China to Japan, now nearly a month old, Beijing has continued to deny that any embargo exists.
"The international monetary order is more precarious by far today than it was in 1929. Then, gold was international money, incorruptible, unmanageable, and unchangeable. Today, the U.S. dollar serves as the international medium of exchange, managed by Washington politicians and Federal Reserve officials, manipulated from day to day, and serving political goals and ambitions. This difference alone sounds the alarm to all perceptive observers."

Follicular Selection and Atresia in Gilts Selected for an Index of High Ovulation Rate and High Prenatal Survival
Date of this Version
January 1999
Published in 1999 Nebraska Swine Report, compiled by Duane E. Reese, Associate Professor and Extension
Swine Specialist, Department of Animal Science. Prepared by the staff in Animal Science and cooperating Departments for use in Extension, Teaching and Research programs. Published by Cooperative Extension Division, Agricultural Research Division, and Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
Swine reports website: www.ianr.unl.edu/pubs/swine/pigpdf.htm
Previously, we reported (See Yen et al., Nebraska Swine Report 1998) White Line gilts selected for an index of high ovulation rate and high prenatal survival (White Line-2, WL-2) maintained a larger pool of medium follicles (3 to 6.9 mm) during the early- to mid-follicular phase than randomly selected controls (White Line- 1, WL-1). The present study evaluated the health status of the medium follicles to determine whether WL-2 gilts maintain a healthier pool of medium follicles and are able to continue selection of ovulatory follicles later in the follicular phase to achieve their ovulation rate advantage (6.6 ova). Ovaries were recovered on days zero, two three, four and five after induced luteolysis with PGF2α on day 13 (day zero) of the estrous cycle. Numbers of follicles (F) equal or greater than 3 mm in diameter were categorized by size and recorded as follows: medium-1 (M1F, 3 to 4.9 mm), medium-2 (M2F, 5 to 6.9 mm) and large (LF ≥ 7 mm). Estradiol (E) concentration in follicular fluid was used to classic individual M2F and LF as healthy (≥ 100 ngE/mL) or atretic (< 100 ngE/mL). M1F were not estrogen- active (<60 ngE/mL) and could not be evaluated for atresia with this method. Mean E concentrations in M2F increased linearly from day two to day five in WL-2 gilts while E concentrations increased rapidly between day two and day three and then plateaued in WL-1 gilts. All LF were estrogen active (≥ 100 ngE/mL) and classified as healthy in both genetic lines. The percentage of healthy M2F increased rapidly in WL-2 gilts between day three and day five whereas percent of healthy M2F remained unchanged in WL-1 gilts during this period. Mean numbers of healthy M2F increased rapidly in WL-2 gilts between day two and day four and then declined to day five. Numbers of healthy M2F in WL-1 gilts increased between day two and day three and then declined to day four and day five. The greatest difference occurred on day four. WL-2 gilts maintain a larger pool of healthy M2F to day four of the follicular phase and rapidly select and mature these follicles into ovulatory follicles to achieve their ovulation rate advantage. Both genetic lines need to select about six additional ovulatory follicles from the M2F pool after day five to achieve final ovulation rates. Greater understanding of the biological basis of the improvement in follicular dynamics in the WL-2 population may prove useful in developing more efficient methods for improving ovulation rate and enhancing litter size in swine.

Grumbling or Gratitude?
The thought was: What if every time I grumbled I would immediately replace it by giving thanks? Paul tells us:
1Th 5:18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
He did not say, in some things did he? Well then, I guess this could include when things don't go my way, like when I repeatedly drop things and have to bend over and get them, even if I hurt. Or if a situation doesn't change, even if I have prayed for years about it. Or if I see chaos everywhere. No, God is sovereign. He knows every detail of my life, and if I love Him (and ONLY if I love Him) He promises to work every apparently "bad" situation in my life for the good. (Romans 8:28) In that I can truly rejoice!!
Sometime thoughts come in and they go out just as quickly. But this one has managed to stay with me for a little while now. It is my prayer that it will not leave me. (That is, the giving of thanks whenever I find myself getting mad, which I admit, is often.)
I was so blessed at church this Sunday, a guest pastor stood in for our regular pastor, both of whom are tremendous teachers of the Word. He mentioned the Beatitudes. When Jesus talked about the poor in spirit being blessed in Matthew 5: 3, He used the word "ptochos." It is from the Strong's Lexicon of the Greek New Testament #4434. It means:
1) reduced to beggary, begging, asking alms
2) destitute of wealth, influence, position, honour
a) lowly, afflicted, destitute of the Christian virtues and eternal riches
b) helpless, powerless to accomplish an end
c) poor, needy
3) lacking in anything
a) as respects their spirit
(I copied and pasted this from the Blue Letter Bible website, a free online Bible study source.)http://www.blueletterbible.org/index.cfm
We have to see ourselves that way. It was the first Beatitude! Blessed are we when we see ourself that way! The Pharisees hated Jesus because they thought they were respectable. When we realize grace is ALL OF GOD and none of us, then we really can thank Him for everything.
Jam 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
That includes our little everyday trials. God wants to reward us in eternity. If we can bless and thank Him instead of grumbling, He will be able to do so. This is just an insight He has shown me. Yesterday I was working around the house pretty hard and everytime something happened that tempted me to get mad, I was reminded to thank Him and it made all the difference. I didn't do it perfectly, not at all, but it did make such a change in my attitude and outlook. It energized me.
Oh Lord, my prayer is that I will not forget this. I am daily bombarded with information overload. Bring this to my remembrance today and everyday, Amen.

Amen! Good word that we all need to remind ourselves of daily! Life can get us down so easily. Physical stuff for me is the hardest of all to get through without grumbling! Thanks!ReplyDelete
I know exactly what you mean. As soon as I start grumbling, then I am no longer walking in the Spirit and the enemy has me where he wants me. Found myself singing a lot more praises yesterday than usual. When I feel pain, I said "Thanks God" because I knew whatever pain I had was absolutely nothing compared to the Son of God's when He bore mankind's sin on the cross. I hope to remember this always by His enablement. (That is the only way possible!)
Thank you for stopping by! Megan
1 Thess. 5:18 has been in the forefront on my mind a lot lately. I repeat it over and over and even when I don't 'feel' thankful I am reminded to give thanks in all circumstances . . . and it seems when I can do this my attitude changes to see a new perspective or something God is teaching me. ;)ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing.
Love, Hester ;)
Hi Mom! First comment :)ReplyDelete
-1 Th 5: 18
This is probably one of the toughest mandates that the Bible gives us – a challenge that we cannot do on our own. This can only be done through constant prayer and concentration on God's Word. Our weak human nature cannot explain why seemingly bad situation can work for the good in any way.
Dear Hester,ReplyDelete
Thank you for your comments and for stopping by! Yes, I agree with you, that is how my attitude is being transformed as well. I am tired of griping my way through life...
Blessings, Megan
Dear Jonathan,ReplyDelete
Thank you for stopping by! I agree, it is tough in the power of the flesh. That is why we have to transform our minds daily by taking in the pure milk of the Word of God like newborn babies! We need to know we really are "ptochos" before Him. That won't offend God in the least, He knows we are but dust and loves us just the same. :)
Blessings my son!
Yep. You caught me...ReplyDelete
Going away to give thanks for a while. :-)
Hi Vonda,ReplyDelete
Thanks for joining the conversation. We are all guilty. It is part of our "old" nature to do so. We just need reminded that's not who we are anymore! (II Cor. 5:17)
Have a graced one :)

You know that cheesy thing that you bought on a whim from Target, for like $3.99, that has all of a sudden become your all consuming obsession? Yup, that one. Viola! In my case, my tacky, sequined, hot pink, hair bow.
I. Cannot. Get. Enough. I wear it with everything- whenever I can get away with it. And I have not worn hair bows since I was like, eight.
Even the Principessa is bewildered by my new fad. Everytime she sees me with the bow, she says soberly, reproachfully, "That's Principessa's." Even a two year old knows that a thirty something year old mother of three has no business rocking that monstrosity. To which I reply sweetly, " Mine, not yours. Mommy's bow."
That's right. Mine. :)

DH and I headed to Club A for dinner tonight to take advantage of their deal with Savored.com. They have a ton of really positive reviews on Yelp, etc., but most of those are people who have bought meals through Living Social or Yelp that are like $80 for two people but require you to order off a set menu, so I wasn't sure they were accurate reflections of the quality of the menu overall.
Our first impressions were generally good - the first floor dining room is nice, dimly lit, and the jazz duo they had playing was a nice touch. Tables were a bit close together, though, and it resulted in waiters jostling our seats more than once as they rushed past. There seemed to be much more hustle and bustle than strictly necessary.
They delivered a bread basket with the menus, which was actually pretty good - a soft onion roll that I really enjoyed, decent baguette and some cranberry nut bread that was too sweet for me (but DH loved it). However, the butter was cold and difficult to dig out of the cup in which it was served, which is always annoying. We decided to try the "Canadian" bacon appetizer, a bone-in ribeye (cooked rare), the red wine braised short rib, and the "German-style" hash browns, truffle mac and cheese and creamed spinach for sides.
The bacon came quickly - they were kind enough to split it into two portions for us - and WOW. This is some SERIOUSLY good bacon - it puts Luger's to shame, IMO. It was at least a half-inch thick, meaty, fatty, salty, tender, smoky - just AWESOME. I don't know why they call it "Canadian," though, since it is definitely NOT Canadian bacon (aka cured pork loin).
Anyway, on to the mains. DH's ribeye was beautifully rare, with a cool red center (just as he likes it). However, they offered a choice of sauces on the menu, and even though he requested Bordelaise he received only a cup of their house steak sauce (which was too sweet and ketchupy for my taste). The meat was flavorful enough but it's pretty obvious they're not doing the serious dry aging that Luger et al do - I could easily have bought a good ribeye at Costco and had an equally good experience.
My short rib was impressively presented, with the meat removed in one large piece from the long bone, and came with gnocchi in a pool of braising liquid. Unfortunately, the short rib itself was a bit tough and dry, and the braising liquid quite bland. The gnocchi were the type you get in the frozen section of the supermarket. I made red wine braised short ribs myself a couple of weeks ago, which were far more tender, with a much more interesting and intensely flavored sauce.
Of the sides, only the hash browns were a winner - they were heavly flavored with black pepper, greasy as hell, crispy, salty and addictive. If you don't like greasy potatoes, though, you should avoid them. The spinach was gloppy and bland, and the mac and cheese was only ok - it was very creamy (it's a loose, stovetop-style recipe that they top with cheese and broil briefly, rather than a baked casserole type), but there wasn't much cheese flavor to speak of.
Portions were generous and we were much too full for dessert, but they sent us a fruit platter on the house, which was a very nice gesture. The owner stopped by while we were nibbling it to ask how we'd heard about them and whether we'd enjoyed our meal. Service overall was friendly and professional (with the exception of one snooty woman at the hostess stand).
Anyway, though there were some good things about our meal, we won't be in a hurry to return - and if we do, we'll probably just get the bacon. Way too many good steakhouses in NYC to repeat one that was only ok. BTW, the prices here were more or less the same as they are at any other NYC steakhouse (porterhouse for 2 was $47pp, sides are around $10 each, etc. - about the same as Luger or Keens), but I felt the quality of the meat was not up to par, and had I not gotten 30% off I would have been quite disappointed. They are clearly going for volume and filling the restaurant with these Living Social/Savored type deals, and while they do bring the price down substantially, in this case I wish we had just paid the extra $30 and gone to Keens or Peter Luger.

John Allen of the (apostate) "National Catholic Reporter" is one such example of this phenomenon.
For the same reasons we find laughable Obama's premise that the Taliban are our friends & we can reason with them, the idea that John Allen is anything but an enemy of the truth, is dangerously naive.
Most of the time, Allen plays rope-a-dope with a small handful of unseasoned warriors until the timing is right to coil up, hiss and strike at people bringing the truth into the light.
Allen's victims this time are Jack Smith of Kansas City Key Blog and LifeSite News for their exposes on Sister Carol Keehnan and Fr. Tom Rosica.
Before he furnishes his slander, he lulls the folks who can't get away from the mirrors adoring themselves into the snare:
One bit of gallows humor in Catholic circles is that sometimes the worst enemies of the pro-life movement are pro-lifers themselves. The point is that a handful of activists occasionally come off as so shrill, so angry and judgmental, that fair-minded people simply tune out the pro-life message.
That's horribly unfair, of course, to the vast majority of people involved in pro-life efforts, who in my experience are respectful, idealistic, and eminently rational.
With the beautiful people now on the sitting in the peanut gallery with John Allen and Joan Chittister, you'll just have pardon we "uncivilized" people, because this tripe has no place in the world of evangelism and the 2000 years of martyrdom that purchased our Deposit of Faith.
Oh, I'm sure somewhere underneath the catacombs of the National Catholic Reporter there's a bible with 12 other kinds of apostles who passed on Catholicism by charitable exchanges with Ciaphas, Pilate and Nero -- and a St. Joseph who doesn't flee to Egypt but rather works out a compromise with King Herod to keep the slaughtering of infants to a minimum.
Perhaps we can all look forward to Opie Taylor making a movie out of it. Personally, my money is on Aunt Bea being a very unhappy camper about the way he's turned out. Meanwhile, Christendom will just have to march forward the old fashioned way.
John states:
I came to know Keehan when she began leading annual trips to Rome for board members of the various Catholic hospital networks in America, the purpose of which is to foster great understanding and a deeper sense of common cause between the Vatican and leaders of Catholic health care in the United States. (In the interests of full disclosure, I'm usually part of the program for these visits.)
My friendship with Rosica dates to 2002, when he was the chief organizer of Pope John Paul II's visit to Canada for World Youth Day. Since then, we've bumped into one another in a variety of settings. He's perhaps the most truly "catholic" guy I've ever met,
Both CHA under Keehan, and Salt and Light under Rosica, have positioned themselves firmly in the Catholic middle.
Let's cut to the chase about a fallacy that there is such a thing as the "Catholic middle", shall we?
We are talking about faithfulness - and a scale that runs from 100% faithful to 0% faithful. Keehan and Rosica are 50% faithful to Christ. That's about as enchanting as a wife who sleeps with somebody else half of her marriage.
I'm not at all impressed that Keehan toured with the Pope and enjoys a reputation in high-powered circles. So did Macial Maciel. That and $5.00 will buy you a cup of java at Starbucks.
Keehan's history in the prolife community, in the trenches, has justly earned her a reputation for being 50% unfaithful to Christ. And, John Allen seems to be aware of her subterfuge or he would never describe her as neither here nor there but in "the middle" (where Christ spits out of His Mouth)
In Keehan's case, the blast came from a blog operated by the Kansas City-St. Joseph diocese. In an August 6 posting, writer Jack Smith accused Keehan of "being at odds with the USCCB and the pro-life cause" on health care reform. (A USCCB spokesperson promptly denied that assertion.) Smith pointed to Keehan's annual salary of $856,093 – which, as he noted, is turned over to her order – to suggest that she's essentially a highly paid shill for the health care industry. The post has metastasized on the Internet.
When Sister Carol Keehan's opinion happens to support the proabortion policies of Obama and abortion contracts of Cardinal O'Malley, the $856,000 is the payoff. And, it's a mighty big one for women who take vows of poverty.
There's nothing uncivilized about pointing out where Sr. Keehan's opinions have strayed from the Faith and the money being put into her pocket. John is being...well, uncivil. Not to mention intellectually dishonest.
Allen continues the drama by indicating LifeSite's comparison of Rosica to Raymond Arroyo in their coverage of the canonization of Ted Kennedy generated 500 "hostile" messages to Rosica.
Somewhere, the world's tiniest violin is playing.
For those of us who have endured years of the backlash, hostility, stalking, threatening - generated by decades of stories maligning those who profess the accurate teachings of the Church as hate mongers of homosexuals and lesbians and the poor, I find Allen's malarkey to be beneath contempt.
Somebody who feigns they are a loyal footsoldier in your army but is working for the other side - and taking nearly a million dollars for it - that is the worst kind of enemy.
I'm not the least bit ashamed to say it.

John Malone's international cable operator Liberty Global is set to takeover U.K. company Cable & Wireless Communications, which offers pay TV, internet, landline phone and wireless service in the Caribbean, Panama and the Seychelles.
The deal values CWC at £3.5 billion ($5.3 billion). In addition, Liberty Global will assume CWC's debt, which was $2.7 billion as of Sept. 30. Malone already owns a 13% stake in CWC, following CWC's acquisition of telecoms provider Columbus Intl., in which Malone held a 22% stake, last year.
Liberty Global expects that combining CWC with its operations in Latin America and the Caribbean, the LiLAC Group, would result in significant synergies, which would be in addition to the $125 million in synergies that are expected to come from the merger with Columbus. The CWC deal creates a premier broadband and wireless platform with 10 million subscribers.
Mike Fries, CEO of Liberty Global, said: "The acquisition of Cable & Wireless represents a watershed moment for our recently created LiLAC platform. It will add significant scale and management depth to our fast-growing operations in Latin America and the Caribbean, while creating a new regional consumer and B2B powerhouse. Upon completion, the combined business will serve 10 million video, data, voice and mobile subscribers, with leading positions across multiple markets."

Cool! Good info.
Here is the link: Orlando Sentinel - Disney updating menus and dining rooms by Heather McPherson
At Walt Disney World's Epcot, four of the 11 World Showcase countries are getting – or have just gotten – a dining makeover. Here's what's on the front burner at Epcot:
Patina Group's Tutto Italia Ristorante opened in late 2007 in the Italy pavilion. Expansion and more changes are planned for 2010.
In October 2007, the Japan pavilion debuted Tokyo Dining and Teppan Edo, a dramatic redevelopment of their dining rooms.
China's Nine Dragons restaurant recently reopened its completely redesigned dining room and debuted a new menu.
By fall 2010, a new tequila bar opens adjacent to San Angel Inn in the Mexico pavilion, and the outdoor Cantina de San Angel expands, with more seating and a new menu. :wub:
At Disney's Contemporary Resort, the new Contempo Café uses state-of-the-art electronic menus and touch-sensitive screens for ordering. On the hotel's fourth floor, the 114-seat restaurant is open 6 a.m.-midnight with selections such as the Concourse Steakhouse salad; a hot, open roast beef sandwich; honey-lime chicken sandwich; chicken basil pasta; spice-crusted mahi sandwich; and a marinated beef flatbread.
At Disney's Animal Kingdom, guests who travel to the land of Asia get a taste of that exotic part of the world at the Yak & Yeti Restaurant. The Asian-fusion eatery offers table-service dining and a full-service bar, as well as quick-service food and beer-garden options, and retail offerings from Pan-Asia ranging from silk purses, incense and saris to fine teapots. It seats 250 inside for table-service dining and 350 in a quick-service courtyard. Yak & Yeti is operated by Landry's Restaurants, which operates the Rainforest Cafes at Disney's Animal Kingdom and Downtown Disney and T-Rex: A Prehistoric Family Adventure at Downtown Disney.
Tusker House Restaurant in Disney's Animal Kingdom has converted to an African-inspired buffet restaurant that includes a character breakfast, Donald's Safari Breakfast. Hours are 8-10:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. until the park closes. The restaurant features both indoor and outdoor seating.
Disney's Coronado Springs Resort is home to Rix Lounge, a 5,000-square-foot nightlife venue featuring house music, specialty drinks, tapas-style appetizers and rotating entertainment. State-of-the-art lighting and sound systems create a first-class, fresh, contemporary and sophisticated ambiance. Rix is operated by Springs Food Service, LLC, a sister company of Palmas Services, LLC, that has operated the San Angel Inn and Cantina de San Angel in the Mexico pavilion at Epcot at Walt Disney World Resort since opening in 1982.
The Wave debuted in summer 2008 at Disney's Contemporary Resort. Located on the first floor with a "super lounge," the upscale restaurant offers "bold American cooking with flavors from all over the world." Open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner, The Wave offers seasonal menus featuring local and regional products when possible, organic beers and trendy cocktails such as the "antioxidant cosmo" with açai juice. The innovative wine list has a quirky claim to fame: all screw caps, no corks. Cutting-edge wines from around the globe are showcased.
At Downtown Disney guests can dine face to face with a dinosaur at T-Rex: A Prehistoric Family Adventure, A Place to Eat, Shop, Explore and Discover, which combines table-service dining and retail in an interactive prehistoric environment built around water, fire and ice. Opened in fall 2008, the restaurant is operated by Landry's Restaurants.
[B]What's next[/B]
Coming to Downtown Disney in 2009 will be a new concept by E-Brands Restaurants, an Orlando-based, multi-concept restaurant group. The high-energy, casual eatery will feature authentic Central and South American cuisine, specialty tequilas, premium wines and live music to entertain guests of all ages along the waterfront. The concept will come to life in a 5,000-square-foot, hacienda-style interior featuring rustic beams that contrast against modern fixtures, stone floors, and windows that roll up to create an open-air environment.
Also in 2009, a third restaurant is coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge – Sanaa, featuring "African cooking inspired with Indian flavors."

Well, dumped skinning on Dax and picked up mining. No, it won't be as useful as enchanting, but Daxie can use the extra ore for prospecting and....it's fun! Well, fun when you mine what you find and aren't 2 skill points away from that ore! I made it up to 126 before teaming up with Neya in Blade's Edge Mts.
Quested with Neya a bit until he had to go to Kara on Trilogy. Then whispered a pally friend and asked what he was up to. He said he was going to Caverns of Time: Black Morass and asked if I would come. Long story/short, I'd never done any of the CoT instances, so we had to do Old Hillsbrad (Escape from Durnhold Keep). We had a very strong team: Warrior, Rogue, Warlock, Pally and me. Everyone but me and the warrior was 70. We had no deaths and a little off healing from the pally. Thrall's escape was pretty intense, and the pally had to heal him cause I couldn't find him!
No phat lewt for me other than the quest reward - a pair of gloves. Now I need to socket them and see if they're better than the ones I have.
Oh, and Dax is at 75%......

Seriously I was so impressed with our skit. Skit themes aren't assigned until the bus ride up to camp, so in a day and a half we threw together a super duper funny skit. Nice work on that Sister Tolman!
My partner in crime, Kaylani and I. All I can say is I can hit a flee off a dog's back at 200 yards.
We also went repelling and I went COMMANDO for my first time. That means I went down face first.
You need someone to catch you at the bottom, or you're face planted into the bushes.
We're the ones who braved it commando style. The two on the right are our YCLs, Corbyn and Hannah.
And this is what happens when you're a YCL and fall asleep before the rest of the cabin. I like how Corbyn in the background has one mustache line. (she woke up while I was drawing it)
They got Kaylani and I back. What you don't see is the wet spots from the water balloons they also nailed us with.
Girls Camp was a blast! I'm so glad I had the opportunity to go and get to know the great girls in our ward and also to feel the spirit.
And happy birthday to my beautiful little Gwenny!!! Today she's six! And am I the only one who cries the night before a kids birthday? They just grow so fast, and last night as I was kissing 5 year old Gwen good bye it was just too much. But here's to a great year with my SIX year old Gwenny!! But please stop growing now. I'm fine with her being six for a couple of years. :)

Millennials Aren't Saving – Is it Oversight or Inevitable?
November 28th, 2017 by Bunch & Brock
According to Wells Fargo Investment Institute, 41 percent of Americans ages 17 to 35 aren't saving for retirement yet.
Millennials aren't saving.
This news comes at a time when many Baby Boomers are fearing they'll have to work for a few years longer than they'd planned in order to afford retirement.
One possible reason for the failure of the Millennial generation to start saving may be that, on average, Millennial households earn 20 percent less than the Baby Boomers did at a similar stage in life. Lower incomes are certainly a contributing factor, but there are other possible reasons for the lack of saving behavior among Millennials.
Why aren't Millennials saving?
Debt is one major reason for the drop in saving among Millennials. Debt in general, and student loan debt in particular, is a serious drain on Millennial finances. With almost 34 percent of Millennials having at least some student loan debt (and a median balance of $20,000), many members of the generation are having a difficult time paying off the debt and saving for retirement.
Another possible factor is the lack of financial education at the high school level, or even at the college level. Many Millennials are introduced to things like debt payments, credit cards, and monthly bills only when the time comes for them to do them. They're not taught in school, and many people are embarrassed to talk about financial topics in their personal lives. A little institutional support in the form of a required finance class in high school (or even as a university general education course) could go a long way in ensuring financial literacy in upcoming generations.
One other angle on the lack of Millennial retirement savings shows up when we realize that Millennials are saving, just not for retirement. Millennials are more likely than previous generations to save for experiences, such as travel. The average Millennial spends $2,915 per year on travel, and that figure is expected to rise as the generation earns progressively more over the years.
So even though Millennials are saving, the funds are not intended for retirement. They're more likely to be used for the next vacation or the first house than for retirement—which is still at least 30 years off, even for the oldest members of the generation.
And don't forget: If 41 percent of Millennials aren't saving for retirement yet, that means 59 percent of them are. So the generation as a whole is at least getting into the habit of saving. More to the point, the individuals in the Wells Fargo poll were aged 17 to 35. That means on the upper end we're talking about established professionals already well into their careers, but on the lower end we're talking about juniors in high school.
Yes, some Millennials will run into some trouble, but there's no reason to panic.

Jay Z Addresses illuminati Rumors in New Song 'Heaven'.
On the song, Jay-Z talks about a conspiracy theorist who say he doesn't believe human beings can work hard to attain wealth, but blame it all on joining the Illuminati and secret shady organizations that run the world.
In the same song, Hov raps about how he thinks religion separates rather then unifies. He adds that people should question certain aspects of religion and God, since some elements of it may cause destruction to the human race and way of life.
Do you think he is just trying to cover his Illuminati tracks? I hope I am not tagged Illuminati after I make my billions from the hard work I am currently doing.

Had Chris Justice and his father in-law Ken aboard today. Visiting from Georgia, at Amelia Island.........BUT fishing with the "Float Freak" out of Mayport!
Chris was a "BOAT" guy, and we had a good time talking about my Plate Alloy Fishing Machine.
So we left at high tide Mayport time. And attempted to float-rig for Trout up and down the river but only ended up with three. 2- 3 pounders, and one smaller one. Loosing a few fish along the way, and feeding the Croakers, Lizardfish, Mangrove Snappers, & Ladyfish. I didn't want to give up. I wanted these fellas to get some serious Trout. But as the tide turned to falling, I just could tell, it wasn't gonna happen.
Good thing I netted up and bunch of big Mullet at the boat ramp and dumped them on some ice, to be used for cut bait bottom fishing, if all else failed.
Ya' know I'm seriously "gun-shy" when it comes to serious bottom dropping when the water temps still 85 degrees, because I hate catching stingrays between the Redfish bite or two.
So I wrapped up the float-rig rods, and out came the G. Loomis back Bounce rods and my mini twin drag Accurate reels. Not the big ones I have, but rather the ones I call my "LT" bottom tackle, "LT" for light tackle. But capable of handling some seriously huge fish.
I cut the mullet into chunks, pinned to a small circle and we pitched back to an area I've always wanted to drop a heavy lead. So this was the first time I ever really fished this way at this spot. That's hard to believe, there's actually a spot where I haven't tried. A new "spot" to me can be right next to another "spot", I fish all the time. The break down is that close, in my mind.
We ended up with a 10 and 16 pound Redbass right away, and loosing one to those expensive Daichi brand hooks, because it broke right at the barb. And after we pulled the hook out of the 1o pound Red we found that this fish was caught on a broke Daichi hook, too! Holy Crap. $5.00 for 5 - 4/0 circle hooks, makes these some mighty expensive hooks to break. Hell with that Daichi bullshit! So I went back to good ole Eagle Claws, and my favorite's, VMC circle hooks.
(we did catch just one sting ray...only 1)
We were "light tackling" these fish with small hooks light leaders in a deep hole next to underwater ledges, and submerged rocks. The last thing I wanted was my damn hooks breaking!
We put in a lot of hours today, but it was worth it. Chris and Ken had fun, learned a lot. And had 2- gallon baggies of fish to take back to the condo for dinner
with the two Mrs. Fried Trout & Blackened Redbass.....C'C'mon!

This afternoon we took a short drive to Spring Mountain Ranch. The park is really neat. There is a grassy area for picnics and bbq. In the summer they even have weekend slip-n-slide events!
The site of the ranch was once an alternate route to the Spanish Trail. It saw wagon trains and outlaws. Howard Hughes was one of the later owners of the ranch.
The farmhouse and trails are all self-guided, though there are guided tours as well. The ranger we met today was very friendly and let us know of the many events and how seasons effect the area. This is definitely a park to visit again.
Above is a picture of Lake Harriet. The area is fed by many springs creating an oasis in the desert. The lake is protected so there is no fishing or swimming.
The cabin and blacksmith shop were built in 1864
The ranch had 20,000 head of cattle at one time.
Wild burros are among the many animals in the region. There are signs on the road approaching the park warning to watch for the animals and not to feed wild burros or horses.

JANUARY 2009: Crazy Uncle Milton signs a three-year deal worth approximately $30 million. When asked about if he will be able to play right field after a year of being a designated hitter, Milton responded.
"Yeah motherf*cker. I can play right field. You don't think I can play the outfield? You must be retarded. I'll f*cking kill you!"
MARCH 2009: Milton opens Spring Training on a tear. He is hitting everything in sight as he leads the team in batting average, on-base percentage, OPS in the first two weeks after camp breaks. However, Milton is seeing a lot of time as the designated hitter in Arizona ball. A reporter asks Milton if he is healthy enough to play the field.
"Hell yeah, I'm healthy! I'm breathing right. I wouldn't be breathing if I was healthy you dumb motherf*cker. I hate retards. Go Plaxico yo'self!"
APRIL 2009: After a conversation with Cincinnati Reds manager Dusty Baker, Milton refuses to take the field on a cold April afternoon. That sparks this heated rant.
"It's cold, f*ck that. There's snow on the f*cking ground motherf*cker. You don't see brothas playing baseball in the snow. Hell, brothas don't like playing football in the snow. That's why we like the south. It ain't cold. This is bullsh*t, Lou!"
JULY 2009: As the weather heats up, so does Milton. After a slow start, he is now hitting .290 with 10 home runs as he leads the team in OBP. A reporter asks Milton if he can keep up his hot hitting. Of course, he goes ballistic in his response.
"Hell yeah I'm gonna keep it up (no homo). It's summer time. It's hot. I'm hot. My bat's hot. You think I wanna stop hitting the ball? You think I'm gonna stop hitting the ball? That's my job, see the ball and hit the ball f*ckin hard. That's it. And catch the ball when it's hit to me. That's what I do. I get paid to hit the damn ball. So pitch me the damn ball so I can take your head off with a batted ball. It'll f*cking kill you!"
AUGUST 2009: Milton's hot hitting has indeed continued through the summer. However, he has a rough game where he goes 0-for-3 with three strikeouts before hitting a double that started a Cubs come-from-behind rally. Color commentator Bob Brenly complements Milton's swing, which for some reason upsets him.
"That is some Brokeback Mountain sh*t, Bob. My swing is pretty? How the f*ck you gonna call a grown man's swing pretty. Does it got lipstick on? Does it have titties? Does it have one of those easy access skirts on? F*ck no! Gawddammitt Bob, I'll f*cking kill you!"
SEPTEMBER 2009: Milton leads the Cubs to a third-straight NL Central title. A celebration occurs.
"We gonna pop champagne like we won a championship game. F*ck them motherf*ckers that doubted us. They dead now! DEAD! Where's my champagne? Wait...this ain't Cristal? Where's my Cristal? Can a brotha get some Henney? Can I pop some Henney? D-Lee, why you drinkin' my Henney? I'll kill you motherf*cker!"
OCTOBER 2009: Milton and the Cubs have done the impossible in capturing the Cubs' first World Series title since 1908. He hits a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 12th inning off CC Sabathia, who started the game. A reporter asks Milton how it feels to be the hero. His response, classic.
"How do you think I feel you f*cking idiot? I'm rich. I'm paid. I'm 'bout to get laid and we won. Bitches gonna love me. We f*cking won. F*ck you guys who thought we couldn't win. You're all a bunch of f*cking homos. All of you. Did you think I wasn't gonna get the game winning hit? I'll slit your f*cking throat. We the mothaf*ckin champions!"

Their website says nothing. The only content is a "store locator" that doesn't currently work.
I did some digging and discovered that SAB Miller acquired this Polish label and decided to bring it to America. It was first rolled out primarily in the south, and is now becoming available in the midwest. In fact these markets are going to see this 15 second commercial during the Super Bowl. I guess this is my week to be timely with MillerCoors products.
So in paragraph three, I suppose I should start discussing the actual beverage. In a press release they said, "The beer is 'Crisp like an Apple. Brewed like an ale.' This is no cider, it's a golden ale with red apple hints." I poured it in my glass, it fizzed like soda, there was no head. I tasted it and I detected no ale taste. I beg to differ with you marketing copywriter person; this is a cider. Don't get me wrong - I like cider and I'll give it a 3 - but it really doesn't belong in my year of beers.

We enjoyed our stay at Long Island. It was nice to see the people recover so quickly from having a hurricane hover over them. The donations were gladly received and the folks we talked with were quite thankful. Thank you to all who donated and for the prayers.
We highly recommend a visit to Salt Pond, Long Island, not just because we find the people so friendly, but we also very much enjoy the Saturday morning Farmer's Market. Here is a tip: they say it begins at 9 am, we go at 8 am because the vendors sell to one another and what you want may no longer be there by 9 am!
We suffered through some mild south winds there, but could not stay any longer with strong SW winds forecast, therefore we came back to Georgetown. The winds were calm upon our arrival, allowing us another visit to Fish Fry for local food and local socializing. The Patriot/Chiefs game was on, so there was much to be rowdy about.
Weather is unstable, hence so are our plans. We will keep you updated as we move around.
Love to all,

This my friends I can handle. I can handle a few
Thank goodness there is a lake a stones throw from the house. The kids have been enjoying it. Us adults are still to wimpy to get in the chilly water but every day it is a little warmer so maybe this weekend we will suck it up and jump on in.
Reuben came over with his little cutie bug and we headed down to the lake. She found the tiniest turtle we have all ever seen. Of course, my favorite friend in the world was lying on the desk at home, so, apologies for no photos of it's super cute and awesomeness. We headed down there last night with Reuben and his family again. This time Mr. Nikon was invited but alas, no tiny little turtles.
Besides trips to the lake, this is another busy week. Yesterday we pulled out Lillies. I know, I know, it sounds horrible. It was actually sad to pull them out, but they are taking over the place. We have lillies EVERYWHERE. A sister from the hall told me Sunday that she thinks they are day lillies. That translates to - after a long, long time of looking at just green grassy looking plants, we get one day. . . ONE DAY. . . of a flower and it's done. Hmmm, not too sure I like that idea. Anyway, yesterday half the flower bed in front of the front window got de-lillied and new flowers planted. Mostly anyway, we got interrupted by a lake visit.
Today involves a whole bunch of gardens. We have to get over to Reuben's to till one more time and plant the remaining plants. Some of which I had marked so carefully and managed somehow to not be home when they were planted here, are now unmarked so, Reuben will have a little bit of a surprise garden.
Then we head to Aunt Carols to plant a few more things over there and weed what is already there. Everything is coming up great. I think this weekend they will mostly be up enough to tell what is a plant and what is not so we can weed a little better and then I will take pics for you all.
In the meantime, you can enjoy my little friends that visited me yesterday and were enjoying a cool drink of water as I watered all the plants and flowers.
Oh, I almost forgot. This week is new recipe week here at the crazy house. Saturday after service a sister from the hall gave me some Rhubarb. I have been wanting to try it and she has a ton of plants. After service she made us Rhubarb/Apple juice with some Agave Nectar - yum. So we brought home a bag full to test out before we get some plants from her. I made Rhubarb/Strawberry crisp. Oh so super yummy!
