    Let's see if he can finish Monsanto off.

    Thanks for that Uli. Jon Stewart gets flak like everyone else, but I think he is doing a pretty good job - if it makes you laugh, he has got to be doing something right.

    Tonight I have something I think is important that I want to get progress on, only swimming way out of my depth in many respects. Wish me luck folks.

    On one level he makes me laugh, on another it doesn't, on still another it is hilarious, on yet another level it is tragic, and so on (bathmology). Bottom line, I'd go for the cosmic guffaw.

    Not just wishing you luck, but swimming alongside, with extra life vests and gear...
    if you think it's important then so do I.

    Epic move is basically done. Alcoholic son now on his own again (of course he had quit drinking when we agreed to let him move in). Whew. Daughter broke her foot jumping out of a moving car and just had surgery on Wednesday. Other son and daughter-in-law are having another baby.

    Traded Wally the wether for Cry Baby (we were going to change her name but decided not to), the Nigerian Dwarf doe in milk. Persistence was the name of the game there (had never successfully milked a goat before and only milked a cow almost 50 years ago). My husband actually had to admit that it did not taste at all like he thought it would. Nigie’s milk has very high butterfat and it tastes slightly sweet. Plus we now have little Firefly, a possibly pregnant mini-Lamancha that is too cute for words. And last but certainly not least we have added the rooster, Elvis, to look after my three girls, Fifi, Bella, and Cleo. It’s like watching animal planet out our front window. The other day I pull the Prairie Dog card (again) and look out the window to see a gopher pushing dirt out a hole with his head. Then I pull the Squirrel card yesterday and later look out the window to see one. Plus I got a special card I added to my deck about 4 times in one week, Ganesha, Remover of Obstacles. I found out I got the job I applied for at the KOA campground on Friday (11 days for a background check – really?). We also have a mama deer and her baby, plus 2 others she stole, that came within about 25 meters of that window we like to look out of (she hangs out frequently I guess). They seemed curious about the chickens, which by the way I thought there was something wrong with the first day I brought them out to their new home. By the end of the day their front chest feathers were sticking out because I guess they ate so much by free ranging in the pine forest around there. They were fine the next day so I guess they just gorged themselves.

    No more nights soon. The last few days we’ve had more people trying to scam/get over on the hotel than I’ve seen in the 2 years I’ve been here. I even had someone come in to supposedly see if we had an ATM machine tonight, then went to the bathroom and ditched the taxi outside to the tune of $250. Life just keeps rolling along, rather quickly I might add. I may not be popping in much as I haven’t had much internet access for some time now and soon to be less but know that I am with you all in spirit and thinking of you. Astrid, hope you are feeling much better. Love and blessings to all you fine people.

    Good morning. Keeping J and Astrid in my thoughts.

    At my house, it's M's turn. Doctor this morning after having been on all the natural remedies I know of for three days. Sinus infection, and hopefully bronchitis and not pneumonia.

    No school today, Em will be pushing hard to finish all her make up work, Little One will be pushing hard for me to play all day. Such is life.

    K and Chris moved into a new apartment this weekend, lower rent.

    Mike finished the raised beds, 3 of them so we planted like crazy yesterday, seeds and plants both.

    Just another day in paradise.

    Much Love,
    Life is a road we don't travel alone. But everyone's on their own journey home.

    I actually posted the video on FB and shared both sentiments. He raises awareness with humor. The gist of the awareness and the repercussions of the action is not funny. AWARENESS, the Light, has been served.

    These antics getting past our supposed leaders is ATROCIOUS. I had my laugh and I'm thankful for the awareness.

    Now, I call BULL****!

    The credibility of our government (insidious factions thereof) is so low because of corruption and deception, no wonder they are the "PTW" - Powers that Were.

    I'm putting my whole life into making things better. I'm not a complainer, but a solver, and I will keep on trekking...for the Light. (WE are doing this together.)

    Lots of love and laughter while bringing in the Light to make changes.

    Praying for M, too. :-)

    Getting 911s still. Got $9.11 store credit when returning a few things yesterday. Saw 9:11 on the clock this morning. STAYING ALERT AND AWARE

    Called ex-husband's family to request support for J. Spoke to ex-brother-in-law for the first time in over a decade. It was nice. He was very supportive and will have his mom and my ex give J a call. Ex is not Jason's biological father, but who I was with for over 10 years after #1 left soon after adoption. I'm the dad AND mom, really, but I SO appreciate their love and support and continued inclusion of J in their family. Love them.

    Called my family, too: mom, sister, brother. They will pray and call. Great angels in this world! Thank you, God!!!!!

    I pray for everyone on this site. God knows who you are and what you need. All of our prayers are SO powerful.

    Sending love around the world to everyone who needs it today. Get those legions of angels working. LOL!!!

    Loving the moment,
    Michelle Marie

    Boston Marathon has been plagued with 2 bombs 2 hours ago with some very much injured it seems.

    False flag or stupid people?

    My dentist office just sent out an email informing us he didn't run the marathon today (he usually does it)...which is nice.

    When all this went down, I was looking into Euler (honored by a google graphic thingy today), and learned that the largest known prime number (he held record back in the 1772 with a 10 digit one, with pencil and abacus, I guess)...is 17,425,170 digits long.

    Here and now I pray for those directly effected, as well as the rest of us...as life goes on...

    Boston Marathon has been plagued with 2 bombs 2 hours ago with some very much injured it seems.

    That explains the warning signals (see posts 30135 and 30172).

    I kept seeing and getting 911, clocks, receipts, etc. really close together. I mentioned that it felt like: be alert, be aware - something is up! Since the number is 911, False Flag feels definitely correct

    Thanks to my angels for the warning. Praying for those affected.

    What will follow in the problem- reaction - solution? What is the agenda?

    Love to all,

    Hmm... I'm just so tired of all the drama & chaos, no matter where or when it happens. My emotions are quite neutral at the moment, but it still feels wrong that the rogue elements of the US government (or the ptb) are constantly causing pain and misery to innocent people by acts like this. My thoughts and prayers go to all of those who are affected by this event... Stay strong, the night is darkest just before the dawn.

    Warriors of light are needed more than ever.
