Disclaimer--Some of this “It’s Saturday” might be rather
stodgy and top-heavy with uninteresting stuff.
Ya gotta give Donnie and Hillary credit, they were entertaining
alright (i.e. laugh out loud entertaining). I have no idea how they could
come up with all that stuff to make me laugh.
I actually think that they believed some of what they said. But, I
really don’t have a clue. I always
thought that they thought they were talking to some third grade class. Not a fourth grade class folks, no no, a
fourth grade class would have seen right through them. If you don't believe me, ask the media--they are always right. NOT! I see they are now sitting around eating humble pie with egg on their face!
My mentor use to say--It's never as good as it looks or never as bad as it looks. It will now be very interesting if our great country can
have synergy. It appears we are quite
divided. It appears it will take a great
leader(s) to work through this. There are probably
many ways to get folks to agree. Earlier
this year, Vladimir Putin turned back the clock, passing a new law forbidding
Christians from sharing their faith anywhere but within the walls of official
church buildings. Even speaking of Christ in private homes is forbidden. Online
sharing of the Gospel is forbidden. Ouchy ouchy!
GeorgeTheCrook says—Folks just don’t think alike; not no two
folks do. They just don’t. From my
perspective, it appears that some folks are hoodooed by voodoo! Yabut propaganda
can affect the situation tooooo. And
money or power can rig folks’ minds sometimes as well. Then if you put power and money together,
watch out. Is that being hoodooed by
voodoo? Or is that just money and power talking?
Folks all seem to have different
interests in books, food, music, work, etc. Folks just don’t have the same
interests and tastes. No two folks think
exactly the same. That is why it is
sooooo hard to recommend different stuff to other folks. A friend said—I enjoy your blog most days.
You hear that—most days. That is normal
folks. That is why folks have such few
close friends and there is a high percentage of divorces. Folks just don’t
agree on things and will not accept (i.e. not even listen) to other folks’
opinions and thoughts. Members of
families even struggle (i.e. money management, morals, values, faith, social
believes etc.). Ok, some of you folks don’t agree with what I am saying!!!!
See, I told you sooooo! Such is life. 47% for Donnie and 48% for Hilary—folks don’t
seem to agree, see! And there appears to
be a huge massive chasm between the philosophies of those two and their followers. GeorgeTheCrook thinks
our country is running in the mud while SusieQ thinks we are running downhill
with the wind on our back. See, folks
don’t agree. Bingo! I guess time will work it out. But hang onto your hats folks;
this could be quite a ride.
Do you have “crazymakers”
in your life? I mean folks who just
drive you crazy. They just get in your head (e.g. folks who just make you do
things you don’t want to do or think things you don’t want to think). They make
your life crazy; not the way you want to be.
LuckieEddie says--Sometimes the “crazymaker” can be ourselves (i.e. we
can’t distinguish fact from fiction). A
friend made us a meal recently. When she
delivered it she said that she didn’t know if it was any good as she
doesn’t cook very much anymore. She said she lost her confidence in her ability. Another gal makes us meals and always says--It might not be very good. When I tell TheSoupLady, who gives us a quart of soup every Tuesday, that her soup is good; she says--It's just something I put together. Other folks have given us food also with such a kind, humble, servant attitude. These are really good folks. All the food was absolutely delicious. It was really good let me tell ya. The food was good but their thoughts, kindness and love
for us is waaaaaay better. Such is
life. ~ Crazy! Arlene always says that the food I cook is
delicious. NOT! Even with her Alzheimer’s disease, Arlene is
as kind and sweet as always. That’s my
Arlene!
ItchieBitchie says--I maybe don’t have a clue what kind of heart
you have. I read this while eating my oatmeal with half a banana on it--Your
mouth just reveals what’s inside your heart. A harsh tongue reveals an angry
heart. A negative tongue reveals a fearful heart. A boasting tongue reveals an
insecure heart. An overactive tongue reveals an unsettled heart. A judgmental
tongue reveals a guilty heart. A critical tongue reveals a bitter heart. A
filthy tongue reveals an impure heart. On the other hand, an encouraging tongue
reveals a happy heart, a gentle tongue reveals a loving heart, and a controlled
tongue reveals a peaceful heart. Does that make any sense to you?
I wonder about some of you
folks; I sit around wondering about you guys all the time. Every day! NOT! The state of IA is the leader
in corn production and also pork production .
It says in the paper, sooooo it must be right, that IA is also the
leader in “nice.” Maybe all the corn and hog smell does that. The paper says Iowans aren’t as narcissistic
as the rest of the country. Also, it
said that Iowa is probably on the top lists of states in the United States for
volunteerism. I didn’t have a clue that
Iowans are that good.
There are many nice folks! Oh
ya! I went for a bike ride to Kesley corner recently on a beautiful fall
morning. I got to the corner and laid my bike down to take off a layer of
shirts and my pants. People are soooo nice. A young gal stopped for
the stop sign (i.e. four way stop in the country) and then went through the
intersection. She then stopped and got out of her vehicle and came back
to me. The conversation went like this—You alright erv—I’m fine, my
body temperature has warmed up and I need to take some clothes off—are you
sure; I would be glad to give you a ride—really I’m fine; thanks soooo
much for your concern—are you sure you are alright—really, I’m fine;
thanksamillion. She left and about a minute later another gal stopped and
I had the same story line. Crazy! CLARIFICATION For your
information, when I said I took off my pants, I want you to know that I had
biking shorts under my pants!!!!!
It appears that most folks don’t like to be proselytized
to. That word has a sorta kinda a
negative connotation to it by many folks.
Folks don’t want to be told what to do or think. Just because you or I think a certain way,
others do not and don’t want to be evangelized tooo. ItchieBitchie says—If I
think I’m going to die like a pig (i.e. life has no meaning) and am ok with it,
I’m good; just leave me alone. GeorgeTheCrook
says--Maybe you don’t have a clue what is going on or maybe I don’t have a clue
what is going on or maybe neither one of us have a clue what’s going on. BUT
some day we all will. But if atheist
BigPete is right, then we won’t. But is he right?
When I went to vote, a friend came up to me. We said some niceties and then talked about
her dad. I told her I saw her help him
to church Sunday. It was touching in
see. Her father is a super senior. I know
him as we did business together for many years.
I told my friend that her dad was of high character; a good guy with a
good heart. He always was the same when
things were good and when they were not soooo good. He is a God-fearing person who is confident
with himself. He always was positive and
looked forward (i.e. she said he still does).
My friend said that when she felt soooo low that even God wouldn’t
listen to her, she went to her daddy and asked him to pray for her. He is a
good man.
Well this is the last word of this week’s “It’s Saturday.”
Some of you are saying—it’s about time.
It’s like when a guy was asked--Are you mad that your wife always gets
the last word? No no, I’m just glad when
she gets to it!
Have a FUN day my friends unless you have other plans. (-:

MyFriendJean says—Friends are people who help you be more
yourself, the person you are intended to be.
P.S. Played pb at 7:30 the other morning. Slammin'Mary was having heart problems; her heart was beating real fast. She asked me to finish her game. I took her by the arm and helped her to a chair to sit down. I said I didn't want her to pass out and I would have to do mouth to mouth. She said--I might like that. What a hoot!
