Beautiful moon this morning. So bright on could drive without lamps.

St. Andrew’s Christmas Novena

Begins on the 30th, prayed 15 times a day. Not all at once.

St. Andrew was arrested in Achaea (Western Greece) by Proconsul Aegeas. Andrew was thrown into prison, scourged, and hung on a cross for two days, all the while teaching the people about Christ. A great light shown upon Andrew in the final moments of his life. The date was November 30, 60 A.D.

Great intention for our cold priests.

Happy “48th” Birthday to the girl who made me a mom. You got to experience all my 1sts. You endured well. I’m proud of you… more than you realize, I think.

This is going a bit too far

The flag in WI flies at half mast today, in memory of those killed in the Thanksgiving parade in Waukesha this day in 2021. IMNSHO, the flying flags at half mast only bring my attention to the shooters, who get the attention they are seeking.

Of late news that what appears to have been with the George Floyd incident may not be the case.

The shooting of President Kennedy may not have been like it was said.

I am tired of the lies. I am sick of the agendas being pushed.

The gaslighting of those not originally swallowing the swill being promoted must be stopped.

Village slumbers

Scent of coffee wafting on air, taste of coffee rich and robust

The man sleeps

Again, I woke early when I could have been sleeping. There is something in the quiet of the morning and a good cup of coffee that calls to me brings me direction and peace.

Yesterday was a good gathering. Enjoyable. My thanks to all who attended.

Was glad my eating time was from 12 – 10. The intermittent fasting plan fit right in. Today is last day of Week 6 period 6. I doubt there will be weight loss. There is, however, a change in clothing fit. Definitely a change in eating habits.

Cpap… ugh… slow changes but noticeable. I trudge on.

The cold doing a number on the knees.

Enjoy your day.
