Shadows on the deck... painting with my thoughts...

Brick & Stick with it's own shadow...                                                                                                                              10/26/2013

Don't cross the blue line or you will be a painted knot... sooner then later back to the shed, after nine days back at the VC, after sixteen days of furlough and now a couple of days off, then the season shutdown... was just told this week we had a opportunity to revolt and then beg for forgiveness... but no one told me... so they went over my pay grade and got a very definite NO! It sure would have been fun to try though, sidewalk sale.

It's hard to get a shadow to hold up a stick like that... i got a trick for that.

Back wall of shed is now painted... will stand up tomorrow and start building side walls.

me & Mr. Deeks shared the last cheese burger in Panguitch today... good winter henries.

This quote bears repeating after all that's gone on the past 26 days...

"There is so much incivility in the world today...

I like the idea of our words being clear as a sunny sky and full of grace."

"Live your beliefs and you can turn the world around." David Thoreau

Therefore what manner of man ought ye/i be? Humble,obedient,healer,kind,teacher,courageous,servant,submissive,selfless,full of love.

Moroni 10:32 Yea come unto Christ, and be perfected in him...

Sat outside one aftermorning this past week... talking with visitors and sucking warmth...

bear country ... store food safely... keep camp clean... just like home...

watching mr. steller's jay dance about the front courtyard... flighty dude.

Most visitors are glad that we are back to work... and grumbling about the knot heads in Government "service"...

thanks for a vote for the frontrunner's in the trench/canyon.

Yes i do work in one of the best "trench's" in the southwest...

The polar opposite magazine Orion arrived today...

doom and gloom in regards to the world climate & cause.

The funny part is i would not choose another place to live...

this world... and i did choose to be here... has everything we all need in spite of what the save the earth people say we are doing to kill the earth...

i've had enough today, think i will come back another day and talk some more when my mind is clearandicanmakemoresenceofwhatiamtryingtothinkandsay...

Is Columbus on furlough... or is it just me???

Furlough...                                                        October 1, 2013

In spite of what we do or don't do the seasons are the constant we have during this earth life. i like the constant of the seasonal change that goes on no matter what we do... i for the most part like the adjustments we have to make to get things done... sometimes having to hurry to get "it" done and other times having to be patient and wait to complete the "it" task.
There is always someone or thing that wants to throw a wrench into the works just to get your/my attention and remind us whom "they" think is in control. These kinds of things remind me lately of the Lords conversation with Joseph Smith in D&C 3:6-8. i/we must remember, God is merciful, he does not walk in crooked paths, it is not the work of God that is frustrated, but the work of men. i can see this every day, and i struggle very hard to put my faith and trust in God.

The long & short of it...                                                                       10/9/2013

At the same time i refuse to become paranoid and obsessed with what is going on in this country and the world because; i believe God does NOT vary from that which he does and says he will do. 

Homework to still get done...
furlough has given me that time...
Columbus day today... 1492 he sailed the sea of blue...
blue is gaining over the gray skies of this day...
the foundation of the shed is complete... now the shed to assemble...
i am not the strong fast carpenter i use to was... so i take more time to catch my breath and sit and think about what to do next... instead of racing to the finish as i did in my youth.
The "boys of ^%" are still in hot pursuit... they are still a long ways off and don't want to come to Panguitch to share their stories... and this "face book" thing still baffles me more... people from my past with... idon'tknowwhat... but it mattereth not; i am not angry, but do rejoice in the greatness of their hearts...(Alma61:9). i must be patient to become friends with them again... and learn to love them again. 
Well back to the issue at hand get the shed build and move the stuff out the garage... press on.      CHEERs

Out with the trash... and the washington politicians.

Out with the trash...                                                                 2013

Some times ya just got to pull to the side of the road and let the "trash" have the right of way...
it makes lots of sense to me that ya furlough the folks that do the work and keep the "wigs"...
if i did my federal job the way washington does their federal job i would get promoted to washington.

that's ok with me "boys" i can understand protecting job security, keep the country in chaos and...
you always got some thing to do that you don't have to explain to no one, cause you the boss...
just beware if we the people can elect ya... we the people can also un-elect you... you can run but...

now you got me at home, and i have plenty to do, filed for unemployment, and can't even file...
cause you might pay me for not working... now i feel like an american farmer... pay for no grow...
IF i do get paid for no-work and collect unemployment... i have to pay it back X two!!

You clowns can't even play ping-pong good... i can't play at all... but ya sure know how to screw...
with the american federal work force and visiting public, both foreign and domestic, and expect me...
to explain it to them using your correct barricade mambo-jumbo who knows what language... blah!

i closed down my duty station... and there were so many people in the parking lot that as i departed...
i felt like i was "running away"... i was hired to serve the visiting public... and i felt ashamed...
of what a politician required me to do... i felt manipulated in a very devious way.

I don't like being your ping-pong balls... just cause you got none of your own... come on down and do your own dirty work... and explain it to the people... the "principal" your trying to teach/enforce by ramming it up my butt... you are nothing but pompous overpaid asses... and extremely self-important nothings.

Sorry for my venting rant... no i am not sorry cause there are too many "sorry" people in this country.
click on this and  rock on and enjoy...
