We are among the dwindling few who still answer the doorbell when it chimes between sunup and sunset. (If we don’t hear it, we can rely 100% on our new rescue dog, Archie, to “bark” an alert.)
I’ve been reading about cats,” my husband, Peter, tells me. Peter has never had a cat before. “Oh, yeah?” “Salt is not good for their kidneys. We have to give Felix unsalted fish.”
Along with millions of other movie-goers, my wife and I attended the blockbuster movie, Sound of Freedom. We did so due to the generosity of an anonymous donor that paid for the whole theatre! The theme of the movie came from a captivating line by Jim Caveziel’s character when he said, “God’s children are not for sale.” The movie took America by storm, framing the massive multibillion-dollar demonic sex trafficking industry in a compelling way.
Spring is almost here, which means it’s time for some spring cleaning. This year, in addition to tidying your home and surroundings, you might want to consider sprucing up your financial environment, as well.

Spatchcock is a new word to me, but it’s been around for a long time. Research indicates it originated in Ireland in the 18 th century and is a variation on the phrase “dispatching a cock.” The cock is a bird. In culinary terms, spatchcock simply means to split a bird open and lay it flat for cooking. It’s supposed to make it cook quick and even. Have you ever tried to split a turkey in half ? It ain’t easy. I watched my wife and a 350-pound man wrestle with a turkey until they finally succeeded in removing the big bid’s spine by carving, sawing, pulling and sweating. They spent nearly an hour working with the slick and unruly hunk of poultry.
America is rotting from within. Lethal illegal drugs are being trafficked into our nation. Criminals are running our cities. Teaching children unthinkable immoral acts is championed. Justice is dependent on your political party and personal views. The family has been redefined. Gender is a personal choice. Killing babies before birth is a convenience. Lies are declared as truth to sway the masses, and truth is based on feelings. Why is all this happening? Because of America’s insatiable desire to satisfy her own lusts, and the consequences of that perilous pursuit.
When my youngest two granddaughters pay me a visit, I am rewarded beyond my greatest expectations.
Every now and again, someone comes up with suggestions for addition to the list of what to do when there’s nothing to do.
