Nancy Pelosi and My Crazy Idea

A Note to Shelley Pearson: 

For some reason I really like Nancy Pelosi. She's fearless. Reminds of a dear Democrat friend.

I'm deeply saddened by this tragic event in her life. I think the political rhetoric should pause for a while. Let's mourn. Keep up the efforts to get out the vote, but let the rods of Grace be shoved deep into our angry hearts. The wrath of man doesn't work the righteousness of God. Let us forgive one another so we can experience God's forgiveness.

I have a crazy idea. I see my closest friends are stepping back a few steps. More to follow.

Adopted

 I have a lot to say on this subject, so this post will be continuously edited and reposted.

II'm in the process of expanding my understanding on important words, one at a time. 

I have noticed that God appears to speak to me both through the Word and in the Spirit one word at a time.

I have many personal and Bible stories that  support that observation, but I will move now to the word that I am convinced is the word fo now: Adopted

I find my heart has fallen in love with many countries lately. Mexico, Greece, and China may have been the first ones because of  their glorious food. Next was Kenya, because of individuals I met. When I went online in 2007,  the British Isles, including London and Scotland were next. Then in 2009 I started making friends with the great nation of Pakistan. Lately I have made a lot of friends in Bangladesh. The list of countries is expanding rapidly. I notice a lot of views come from Russia.

I also notice some followers are adopting me as an eccentric but encouraging father figure, for which I am very honored. 

Although I would like to help in every way, my finances are very limited at the moment. But we will see what the future holds.

Since Thanksgiving 2023 my new neighbor has of recently been visiting me quite frequently and like my first wife she's adopted and she's a joy to be around even though she's almost half my age. We will see where this goes. It seems like I still have more story to tell. Later Gators. Like my neighbor keeps telling me, age is just a number?!

  

Zero Carb vs Limbo Low Carb

I wrote this post to my friends in Zero Carb Health, a group I belong to and use as guidance for my own way of life. Since I'm unable to strictly adhere to their tenants now I've made my own philosophy called Limbo Low Carb or... how low can you go?!

Chorizo... Food of the gods?! Why I'll never be a Jew or a Muslim BUT I will always love them because they raise grass fed ruminates and chicken and high quality eggs. Mary's triple jeopardy of IBS, Type 2 diabetes, and late stage Alzheimer's put her under Hospice care for quite a few months but she gradually graduated to visiting physicians. We're home bound. I'm moderately disabled so I don't drive. We live in a small town with ideal senior care AND delivery service in a classy no steps apartment. Both my daughters and one son in law work here daily. We have an extremely  qualified friend of the family, Notre Dame graduate school science teacher farm girl who's advising mom is a nurse-practioner. She's been coming as many days as needed. Plus my brother and sister-in-law live 30 minutes away and help with Doctor visits etc. Seems like God had a master plan.

As Hannibal from A-Team would say, I LOVE IT WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER!

Yes, my daughters negotiated a tough deal where I have to eat one frozen Meals on Wheels a day before they'd agree to helping me and Mary's die hard sweet tooth made me add two slices of very eggy French toast thickly coated with cream cheese. Mary's sister's husband solves the problem by cutting up all her food for her (same Alzheimer's) but I don't have time. Mary feeds herself and eats her angus hamburgers with a keto bun which takes a lot of time pressure off me. Unlimited chicken salad in a bowl is another meal she will stuff herself with. We eat identical meals so we can eat together, saving time. Because her bowels and urination are sometimes uncontrollable I keep busy with changing our bedding, her stylish leopard PJs, cleaning her and the floor, laundry, and her rearranging everything. Seriously, we have a lot of fun together, watch a lot of silly science fiction like star trek and work well together except when I piss her off, which is often because I am a man. Thanks for listening.
