AUTUMN RAIN

It is raining and 46 degrees F. It looks like it will rain most of the day. We can use it. I broke down and bought a new mechanical keyboard. The key boards, I rescued by washing, continued to have have problems intermittently. Sometimes, I could unplug them and replug them and they would work for awhile, but it got too annoying. I think I am going to really like this new keyboard, but there is a learning curve. The letters on the keys are lower case and very small. This old codger depends on seeing the letters on the keys. Perhaps I will really learn to type properly. I use all my fingers, I am not a hunt and peck typist, but I am no flash, either.

Jamie is slowly emerging from the problems, associated from the bulging disc in her neck, healing will take a long time; but, she is back to normal in most ways. We acquired various traction devices and they are key to her healing. Her more general health concerns have improved, also.

This has been an ideal Summer in terms of weather. Mostly pleasant, plenty of moisture, we got by without using our air conditioning once; but there were a few days we might have. Very few mosquitoes! It was strange, in that, most of our projects were put on hold. Jamie didn't feel well most of the time, and I, well, I am eighty and lazy to boot. So our garden went back to nature fairly early. We still got quite a bit of produce from it and we still have potatoes to dig.

We have about twenty hens, and they laid very well, until the last few days. It is time for them to slow down. Up to the last week, we were still getting 7 to 10 eggs a day. Earlier in the season, we were getting 12 to 15 a day. It will drop down to 2 or 3 through November and then cease entirely until the days start to lengthen.

I need to get, two of my sheep, transferred from one pasture to the other; a young ewe and a young ram. I hope to have that accomplished by end of next week. I, also, need to get some hay delivered in the next couple weeks. Who knows when the snow will fly? I got a few small bales for emergencies.

So, that is some of the mundane, of my life, on planet Earth. What about the rest?

This is a tough time for many. People are going through lots of physical and psychological distress. Perhaps, it is part of the change in consciousness. It seems like, everybody I talk to, has some family member going through a trial. Whenever, I think I have troubles, all I need to do, is look around to realize how blessed I am.

Despite the darkness, portrayed in the main stream media, there seems to be an optimism growing in the populace. It appears the dark is retreating. I have been thinking of writing about how, we have been and are, manipulated by the MSM. It is getting more and more obvious. Those, who get their news from the internet, can attest to this. We need to be skeptical of any news, we get, internet or MSM. If it doesn't feel right; it probably isn't. We need to keep our BS detectors working.

Waiting is tough. The secret is, not to wait. The light is increasing and we are awakening; but, lets not wait for veil to be completely lifted. Let us look for how we can be of service, now. How can we shine our light in our families, our communities, how can we make things better for those around us.

But we don't have to concentrate on being a do-gooder. Be a good, at being. If we can remember two things: we don't have to judge, anybody or anything, and love everybody and everything. To repeat LOVE and NO JUDGEMENT. Time will fly by. We will soon be passed through this period of chaos and re-adjustment. Hey! Life on this planet is great! Let's embrace all, as our brothers and sisters.

Love and Peace,  Gregg
