New kitty has a new home..... will save her ear.  The shelter is like a mad child lopping the top off the left ear to keep track of who has been fixed.

Took a trip to our WWI memorial yesterday.  The war to end all wars.  Thought to be that when it ended.  ONE thing I did learn yesterday.....the same problems thought resolved in that war occurs over and over and over..... even if we are no longer sending our men to hold the line in over 400 miles of trenches.   It does not make the reality of war any better. 

Mid June 22 starving cats showed up on our doorstep.  Between my neighbor across the street we have brought them back to health with food, fixed them and they are spending their time with us until adopted.  Cats have been fixed for 2 weeks and today a new one shows up.  These cats are all friendly, healthy and have kept us busy.   One has gone to Heartland shelter in Ks because he was injured and lost an eye..... Told that he was a she, they shaved his tummy and was both spayed and neutered..... poor little guy.  He and his sister are both silver tabbies.  Neela got adopted Saturday by a friend who wanted the brother, but he was already gone to the shelter.   I did discover another male cat with a shaved tummy, but think they caught it sex before incision....  Learned from the first mistake I hope. 

Sorry I wandered off..... facebook farming and games became addictive.....  Looking for a creative spark..... not drawing or writing lately.....

words by monkees

Girl, don't you know everytime I see you smilin'?
Hurts so bad cause when I see you, I start tryin'.
Try everything to stop but there's no denying.
Falling in love with you girl is just like dying.

Ohhh, don't walk away.
Ohh, How can I make you stay, don't turn away
I can still hear you saying those

CHORUS:
Words that never were true.
Spoken to help nobody but you.
Words with lies inside,
But small enough to hide
'Til your playin' was through. Ah!

Girl don't you know we can work it out with talkin'?
You won't turn around or slow down your walking.
I've given you everything with kiss to seal it
You had to get your kicks with tryin' to steal it.

Now, I'm standing here.
Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those

CHORUS:

Now, I'm standing here.
Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those-

CHORUS...

lYRICS TO A SONG

Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face
The kind you'd find on someone that could save
If they don't put me away
It’ll be a miracle

Do you believe you're missing out?
That everything good is happening somewhere else
But with nobody in your bed
The night is hard to get through

And I will die all alone
And when I arrive I won’t know anyone

Well, Jesus Christ, I’m alone again
So what did you do those three days you were dead?
Because this problem's gonna last
More than the weekend

Well, Jesus Christ I’m not scared to die
I’m a little bit scared of what comes after
Do I get the gold chariot
Do I float through the ceiling

Do I divide and fall apart
Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark
This ship went down in sight of land
And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands?

I know you'll come in the night like a thief
But I’ve had some time alone to hone my lying technique
I know you think that I’m someone you can trust
But I’m scared I’ll get scared and I swear I’ll try to nail you back up
(everyone now)
So do you think that we could work out a psalm
So I’ll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try
I know you'll come for the people like me
But we all got wood and nails,
And talk dirt at hating factories
But, we all got wood and nails
And talk dirt at hating factories
Yeah, we all got wood and nails
And we sleep inside of this machine

After a week of bright sunny skies.....this past week has been overcast, cloudy, misty cold rain. 
In spite of the weather..... the future is looking bright.  After 6 months without transportation..... I now have a new....(used car)  It's a beautiful.....black 2007 eclipse..... birthday gift from my two sons.....as I have zip for credit.....and funds..... My youngest with good credit bought it......they both plan on helping to pay for it..... I am contemplating the thought of going somewhere, anywhere without borrowing, begging or paying for a cab.  I am a passenger no more...... I keep reaching into my pocket grasping the key.....it feels like one of those small lolly pops..... Why?  It has the lock, unlock fob on the key.....and.....duct tape.  It works..... the duct tape holds the key together..... giving this car key it's own special charm......

Streetlight through icy trees..... a photo barely captures the beauty..... however it is my favorite to see the web of illusion light plays on the branches.

Snow stayed on the trees for several days this time..... a winter wonderland..... finally we've had a winter with snow..... past few years if it snowed it melted off and was gone within 3 days.

 On the road to work ...... riding ..... my car is still waiting for repair ..... My friend spoke of her youth in Canada ..... exploring the nearby forest ..... finding wild blue flowers ..... picking them ..... bringing home a bouquet ..... I spent the entire workday ..... blessed with the vision

For Fauquet

No longer have the program to draw ..... however have a scanner and will work on a new pony for you.

Computer is up and running..... now to find the time to write again..... I've missed all of you here on Xanga

Today is Friend day...... to repeat on the 13th every month......  Next declared holiday is Family day 23rd of every month......

Computer crashed......
