Village shrouded in fog

Coffee ok

Today’s drive will be slow

Wondering what else US history writers left out, changed, glossed over? Wondering what slant they will give to J6 considering the way Japanese internment camps, slavery, and the Dakhota Uprising were written. Is there any history out there that acknowledges US bad decisions?

Know you are prayed for.

Village silent

Coffee

Breakfast very good

Bow season opened with hunters testing sundown. Very hard to see camoed hunters on a dark roadside. They lived, so did I.

Monday morning is here… the to-do list is long.

Much improved this morning in the health department.

Test driven car won’t be good for what I need it for. The search continues.

Baby run last night, still waiting for outcome.

The funeral… very nice Protestant service in a Catholic church.

I keep waiting for the grief and sadness. Over the weekend, I realized I went thru that process for the loss of my entire family when my dad died years ago. I was devastated and depressed for quite some time. I hadn’t had contact since then except for superficial public moments. I grieved and accepted their deaths at that time. I tried. I failed. I confessed my faults/sins. I accepted the loss of what could have been if we hadn’t been so broken. I leave the door open.

Know you are prayed for.

Village sleeps

The man sleeps

Headed south this morning,a few are going to see relatives and a couple of other drops along with a couple stops at the girls.

Need to be back before noon as I have a 1 o’clock.

Excellent weekend. A couple of unexpected things came up. All worked themselves out or will as time moves on.

Got to thinking about the choices we make in life. I don’t know about you, but I always seem to be a bit daring with little thought of “what could go wrong?”

I find, at times, little consideration is given to the long-range ramifications of my bold, hasty, emotion filled choices.

Which brings me to what is really on my mind… critical thinking. Does anyone teach that these days?

Know you are prayed for.
