Hello again

Hello Blog. I've missed you. On Facebook I have to be careful not to offend people. But here, since nobody will be reading it, I don't have to worry about offending anyone. I can say whatever I want.

Why write if nobody is reading? It will provide something to job my memory about life a few months from now.

The holiday season was pretty nice until right after Christmas. Granny got sick and hospitalized. Mark died on New Years Day or the day after. Granny got sick again and was hospitalized two more times and is now in a nursing home. So the last six weeks have been extremely difficult. But God has seen us through.

You know, I am so sick of people spending boat loads of money on "rescuing" animals. I'm not anti-animal and I don't want animals to suffer. But good grief, with all the people that are suffering let's not waste money rehabilitating wild animals who only live a few years anyway. And let's sure not waste money on dogs and cats. Its not like we're facing a shortage of them.

There's a commercial out these days that shows some pitiful dogs and cats and puts human emotions to them. And lots of people out there are gullible enough to fall for it and spend thousands of dollars on shelters and "rescues" and stuff like that. Its ridiculous and I'm tired of it.
