                I think it may be a good morning as the sun isn't up yet and I haven't been outside to see what the weather is like. Oddly enough, today it is supposed to be in the 80s and yet tonight it is said to be in the 30s, with winds up to 50 mph late this afternoon. I ask you, is that some odd weather or not?

                Yesterday's events recalled: as I remember it, we did not leave the homestead all day, I did sit on the front porch and read from my story, I am about halfway through it now. The main character is learning a lot…

                Every time I read this story, I am impressed that I wrote the story.

                We sat outside and a friend came over and sat with us. It seemed to me that most of the conversations were about doctors and medicines or how quiet the neighborhood was.

                As I understand it, we have no plans for today, ole people don't get to do a lot, and if they did something it would cost them money. Speaking of money, we had some points from the credit card company, and I decided to see how we could use them. I learned that we could cash them in for money, so we are supposed to get a check in the mail for the points we had.

Pray for guidance from the lord for Isreal and the United States in all they do.  

                Well, I guess I will attempt to stop for now, we hope you have a good day and that we all stay safe in all we do.

May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow.

It seems to be a good morning as we get ready for a very windy weekend with some up and down weather.

It happened this way yesterday: I went to get Alex our yard man and bring him to the homestead where he was able to mow and trim the yards. I should say he did a good job. Alex also spread the fire ant killer over the front and back yards. Yes, I did compensate him for the work performed. We drove in to Waco and had lunch at the sandwich shop, and we purchased some sandwiches for My favorite wife.

Back at home I did rest up and did very little. As I was doing nothing on this Friday 13^th, I received an unexpected call saying, "we have your vehicle and if you want it back bring us money".

Yes, I was surprised at receiving that call. Now the call was from the autobody shop, the call was not expected, they did have my vehicle ready for pickup, and they did want their payment.

I called my son David and asked if he could take me to get the vehicle and he did. I did pay them the deductible, and I brought the Fords new Chevy home. They did a good job repairing the vehicle, photos before and after to follow.

 

                We were happy to have the Fords new Chevy back at home as we can take my favorite wife anywhere she wants to go. We sneaked out last night for supper at the cracker store.

                Today's activities? I have no real plans, maybe it will be a rest all day with no activity day. I will stop for now and wish you a good day, we hope everyone has a safe day and that we are all nice to others.

                Good Friday 13^th morning to you. We hope everyone has a good day.

                Yesterday in review: I understand that you are not interested in what I did or did not do yesterday, so if I understand why do I post it? Habit is probably the reason for most of what I do.

                I did work on my bible study homework, I did get the string trimmer and trim the grass in the front yard, we did sit outside yesterday afternoon for a while. Wow, a great day of non-activity.

                Today's activities are supposed to include having our yard man Alex, mow the yards and spread the fire ant killer.

                                Now you know what I know which isn't very much. We hope you have an interesting day and that we all stay safe in all we do.

                Good cool morning to all.

                Yesterday I did very little work, but I removed the Poopa-Loopa from the back 40. I did also do some bible study work. I also started reading a story that I had written several years ago. I do not think anyone other than me has ever read the story and when I read it, I am impressed that I had written it.

                I did get a text from the body shop saying they had started the repair on our vehicle. They told me when I dropped the Fords new Chevy off that they would not accept cash as payment. I thought that cash was "legal tender for all debts public and private".

                Different topic: in the olden days my father would watch wrestling on the TV, and he seemed to enjoy it. Last night I decided to watch some wrestling since there wasn't anything else I wanted to watch. It took only a few minutes for me to see that this so-called wrestling was fake. They appeared to have each move planned. I personally will not waste my time watching.

 

                Comment from me about the Bible.

                In the bible we see in John 1:1 "In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God." Then John 1:2 goes on to say, "He was in the beginning with God". In that passage many believe "Word" is referring to Jesus.

                Many see this as indicating that God and Jesus were two individuals and were together at the beginning of the earth when all things were put on or in the earth. There can be different views of that statement. Consider this possible view, God is a spirit, Jesus is a human placed on the earth by God with Gods spirit in him. If that is true, the spirit within Jesus was a part of God during the creation.

                Allow me to comment. "In the beginning was the word". Now in reviewing this portion of the statement, one may understand the term "Word" as meaning data, and if that was correct the following statement could also be correct.

                "In the beginning was the data, and the data was with God, and the data was God."

                Anyone who believes in God will believe God has all knowledge and can do all things.   Is it possible, God may be a spirit and not have a physical form.

There are comments in the bible where humans hear from God but do not see him and that may be due to him being a spirit. Humans have seen the angels that God has sent, which may be to provide a physical being to help a human to pay more attention.

Humans have physical bodies and I believe we have a spirit inside us.

                As you can see, I think about things from the Bible and have questions.

Well, I should stop for now and let you get started on your day. Please stay safe in all you do and be nice to someone.

                It is a good rainy good morning.

                Last night as I was laying in bed I was considering something that I had written in the past. The subject was a comment from the bible, and I have looked at it differently than others do. I hope to do some review from the bible today to see if I can learn more about the subject. I might enlighten the reading public on the subject at a later time.

                I did take the Fords new Chevy to the repair shop yesterday and it will take some time to get it repaired.

                Now that the Fords new Chevy is gone, I will not be able to take my Favorite wife out for lunch or supper. Wow, if I go to a restaurant I will need to eat alone.

                This is a very short post, we hope if you live in this area you have a very wet day as the rain is appreciated, Have a good day and be nice to others as you stay safe in all you do.

                Good morning!

                Yesterday reviewed: there is not a lot to review, we went to the doctor for my favorite wife's annual physical and that went well. We had lunch in Waco, returned home and we sat outside for a while enjoying the quiet neighborhood.

                I am still adjusting to the time change; I did get a little more sleep last night so I may be adjusting to the change.

                I need to take the Fords new Chevy to the body shop this morning. We are not sure how long it will take, which depends on if they can repair or do they need to replace the tailgate.

                I will need to go to the grocery store today, why do ole people need to eat so much.

I have two photos of some of the vegetation in the neighborhood.

                I will stop now and take a break (nap) we hope you have a good day and that we all stay safe in all we do.

            We hope you are having a good morning, all is good here at the Ford Homestead.

            Let's take a look at yesterday: my favorite wife was able to talk me into going to the cracker store for breakfast and it was good. The rest of the day was kind of a do nothing day for me, I removed some small twigs from the front yard, and we did sit outside for a while and I observed about 7 drones flying over making deliveries. I did comment several times about the time change.

            Speaking of the time change, I think it has me messed up as I have no ambition this morning. I woke up earlier than usual and I did lay there in bed awake thinking about things. It is 10:30 as I am just starting on this unexciting note.

            Back to yesterday, we received our supper last night from David. While they were cooking their supper, they made a little more and he and Alex brough the food over to us. That is very nice as I did not need to attempt to microwave anything for my favorite wife. The food was good.

            Today we need to go to the doctor it is my favorite wife's annual checkup.

            The yards need to be mowed and trimmed, and we might get Alex over here one day this week to do the yard work.

            I have a couple of photos for your review. While outside I noticed some things in the sky. The first is "X marks the spot". I am not sure what the second means.

            I guess I should stop for now and get ready to take my favorite wife to the doctor. We hope you have a good day and that we all stay safe in all we do.

                Good morning to you, and some of those others too.

                We had a good day yesterday, even though we did not go to lunch with Dave and family. It was time to leave the house and head for the restaurant when the rain seemed to increase. The wind was blowing hard and the rain was pouring so it was decided that we would stay dry and that meant we would not go to lunch. Our lunch was leftovers from the night before. Wow, poor ole people had leftovers, they did not have to go hungry.

                Early in the afternoon Dave and the family came to our house and they brough Alex's birthday cake with them. We may not have had a fresh lunch, but we did have a very good birthday cake. I have a couple of photos of the birthday young man.

    We see Alex lighting the candles on his cake and later he was required to blow them out. He is a good-looking young man.

                We got to sit around and talk about many topics, and we enjoyed having visitation and new conversations.   

                Today I have no real plans, I do not know if my favorite wife will force me to take her out for lunch today. The time change has occurred, and it seems to get my attention all too often. Every time I look at the clock, I think it is an hour earlier than yesterday.

                Ok, I will stop for now and we hope you have a good day and that we all stay safe in all we do.
