Last night’s sky…. just beautiful…
No sooner did I brag about the mild winter we were having when a good ole nor’easter blew in. I woke up this morning, fed the dogs, sat down to read e-mails with nothing happening outside my windows. Half hour later there was an inch on the ground already as I went out to feed the animals.
The flood light is on in the henhouse, it throws enough heat to keep them cozy and the water from freezing.
The horses were fed, watered and given plenty of hay to keep them busy, they’re closed in while
the wind is blowing. And boy is it blowing.
This was 6 am-ish. The scene is much different already….
I’ve got a call in to the bird feeder repairman….. half the roof is sitting in the snow.
He’s out plowing and wasn’t amused.
We are actually experiencing thunder during this storm. Such a bizarre thing to occur with snow – sounds like someone’s bowling upstairs. Say a little prayer for my boys to come home safe. Oh and don’t I know the hypocrisy of someone asking for prayer when they aren’t religious. I believe being spiritual and being religious don’t have to occupy the same space to be valid, how’s that for an answer.
I drafted a letter to the President and made it a public post on FB just incase – here’s what I would love for him to read.
Dear Mr. President (and mouthpiece Spicer)
Your daughter knows the truth – ask her! Nordstrom notified her last January that her lines weren’t performing well. It’s a smart business move to cut losses, won’t you agree? Her products are still available in their stores though, she wasn’t Banned. Believe it or not, it’s not about you. As the so-called “Jobs President”, you are contradicting yourself by maligning and attempting to topple a large American company for your own purposes.
I want to stand by my President. I have respect for the highest office in the land. I believe in America and I love my Country. If you want to stop seeing fake news, if you want the larger half of the Country to stop the negativity and rally on your behalf and ours – you really have to stop the daily lies – the little lies, the big lies, the fake news you and your cohorts perpetuate daily. I’m tired of the political angst, the upheaval of everything, the frustrated posts on FB and blogs. I’ve been looking for the clearing in the storm, a reason to have hope… but you keep lying and tweeting ridiculous rants. So juvenile for the leader of this great nation.
Please – stop the lies and the tantrums and the unethical behavior. Do that if there’s an ounce of you that gives a damn about the rest of us. You work for us now, we don’t work for you. I’m really trying to find a reason to believe in the President of My United States, won’t you please rise to the integrity of the office you were elected so that we ALL can move on.
Sincerely –
Heading back out into the tundra to shovel the dog run for the second time. Till soon, friends…
