Reminder for Chelle--Sunday afternoon

Michael Jackson settled out of court the last time which was in 1994.  Clinton was president and the "white water scandal" was under foot.  Michael Jackson's publicity from this trial took our minds off a great deal of White House stuff at that time and got our minds off of war efforts abroad.  Plus, there wasn't a lot in mainstream news pertaining to NAFTA which had the more compassionate people in-the-know spitting mad.

 We spoke of many things today.  We spoke of evil triumphing for a time.  She maintained the Protestants are the real evil doers of this day.  She was upset.

We spoke of the importance of the work we do in today's world.  I spoke of how difficult it is for me to accept a gift.  God gave me certain gifts and not a one so far has involved a lot of money in an account or in a purse for that matter.  I'm doing the best with what I have, well, at least the best I know how.  Jenn is too.  Al is happier as he quit his job and is going out on his own.  God lead and bless Al please.  Thank you.  * Jesus.  Jenn and I reminded ourselves how when death knocks on the door darkness comes to haunt people.  She is being kind of haunted now as she takes care of Joyce who seems to have taken a turn for the worst. 

Hospice workers wear out , burn out but they have an important grace to pass on.  In the last weeks and days, comforting the person who is to pass away and helping them to be more upbeat, these are the things that beat the darkness back.  Amen.

I can't remember what else we spoke of but we spoke of much.  I wanted to blog it so it would help others but also so we could remember it and my goodness, I've forgotten already what it is that I wanted to write. 

Oh,Yori and I got into it once again and it was over the same old thing--alternative energy.  I don't know why he is so opposed to it.  What is up with him, anyway?  It isn't the accusations he makes any time I or anyone else speaks on the subject, it goes beyond that.  Maybe he is frightened by the consequences of our consumption?  Maybe he knows something devastating we aren't aware of and for our protection he holds it in without letting it out?  I don't get it.   

Time to go home and fix dinner now so I can make it back later for more cleaning.  Maybe then, I will remember what it was that I forgot.
