Tonight, is
the fourth night of Hanukkah 2021.
The day was a
busy one – right up to the candle lighting at 4:30 PM.
I put the busyness
off as long as I could this morning – before jumping out of bed around 9 AM: I
missed exercise class (but, I have the treadmill – so I’m okay 😉); I ate
breakfast at Omelet’s and More (I considered that a mitzvah, as money was
funneled into a local business that local people depend on 😊); and then I swung
over to Kelso, where I collected the laptops I’d dropped off at Charisma on Monday,
to be ‘cleaned’ – and honestly, I really did not miss the laptops while they
were out-of-house.
Breakfast at Omelet’s & More; barriers still in place ...
New Read: I read while I ate breakfast; storyline has Charlie Manson overtones.This laptop has a broken hinge, so it doesn’t close; but, at least I can use it again.
I'm willing to lay down money that these new apartments going up all over the place are for illegal aliens; Ocean Beach Highway.
After I paid
for the computer clean-ups, I drove back home to drop the laptops off to
recharge; before driving uphill to spend some time with friends at Keenager’s.
I noticed
that the hired workers started painting the interior … and the slimy black mold
has been pressure-washed off the steps and porch of the house next door; as the
Park prepares that repo-pigpen for its new owners.
I also noticed,
as I sorted through the mail, that the government will start withholding $150
from my Social Security benefits – starting the end of this month. That will
cut into my Daytripping; but otherwise, I should be fine, financially. I will
still be making sure to get out-and-about, but I’ll have to strictly stick
to the budget – more careful planning, and less spur of the moment
drives. One of two big Road Adventures, and more ‘closer-to-home’ hops. I
have most of the backroad jaunts figured out – those explorations were what ate
up the gas money this year: that won’t be an issue in 2022.
Elohim will make
sure I have enough $$$ to “get out of Dodge” when I need to unwind, and enjoy
fresher air; that unexpected {extra income} Bob provided for me during his
logging year, will help off-set what the government is stealing from my monthly
benefits. I am thankful Bob had the foresight to make that provision.
I know I am
luckier than most, in that I can escape when it is necessary: some can’t. I
will be respectful of that blessing.
The black mold next door is being pressure-washed away.
On the way
home from Keenager’s, I hear don the radio, that the US Supreme Court is
hearing another petition to overturn the evil obamanite abortion mandates that
make it possible for selfish people to abort babies up to – and including after
live birth: in which cases, doctors and nurses turn a blind eye to a starving
baby left to die without even the comfort of being touched or held as it’s life
ebbs away.
And that
obamanite tool, sotomayer – a godless/black-hearted Supreme Court
seat warmer appointed by barak hussain obama to carry out his evil dictates, actually
compared babies about to be aborted as ‘braindead nothings’.
I was so angry when I heard
that!

And I don’t care
who walks out of my life when I vociferously defend the right of those babies
to be born. I am sick and tired of people taking up the causes of saving the
lives of dogs and cats … and labeling chimps and hippo’s as humans. I am sick
and tired of the rampant insanity that has gripped America since 2009.
As I lit the
Hanukkah candles, I thought on the reason for the candles … and hoped/prayed
that the Supreme Court Justices do the right thing concerning abortion: it’s time
to stop it (1) the ‘right’ to an abortion is not actual Law –
but, a Law can be drafted and enforced that prohibits abortion except in dire circumstances
(2) the insanely rampant rise of infanticide in America, since
the 1973 roe vs wade ‘murder right’, had taken a serious toll on America, and
Americans.
I hope and
pray rational thinking, and sanctity of life, will gain the upper hand in the Justice’s
conclusion to the deliberations – that lucidity will rule, and that rational
Justices will not be afraid to stand up for what is right … and do
the right thing. It’s time to slap the obamanites down, and get America
back on solid footing again.
As I lit the
final candle in tonight’s 4-candle-line up, I remembered how victory was won in
those ancient days that commemorated Hanukkah: against daunting odds, and with
a prayer on their lips and faith in their hearts, the Maccabean’s entered the
battle of their lives – and won.
4th Night Hanukkah.
We, can do the same.
As the
candles burned, so did the flame of hope in my heart.
Honking geese
flew over the house, so low I could clearly see their feet.
And I started a new lapghan …
MOD Chevron Lapghan - for myself.
This one is for me 😊
