oberservations

I rang the bell for the Salvation Army today and noticed several things.  Everybody was in a hurry to get their shit done and get home.  It was cold but the ringers were allowed inside so that was good.  Kroger and Hobby Lobby do that.  Wallyworld?  Not so much.  The men were much more generous, especially the older ones.  Most of the women were on a mission and walked on by as I said Merry Christmas!  Our local soup kitchen is about 5K down from last year.  Lisa and her crew feed about 250 meals a day to the homeless.  It's a group effort and all volunteer.

So we have this dog hanging around who is starving to death slowly but surely.  We feed him cat food but that ain't gonna work for long.  He's purdy and needs a name and I am smooth out of 'em.  If it wasn't Christmas week I'd get in tTouch with rescue agencies and find him a home.  For now he gets cat food and leftovers.  Doesn't seem to mind much.  Dude just scarfs and runs to wherever.  

So what are ya'll doing for Christmas?  I don't have a clue except for breakfast at Hippies Corner Cafe.  Gaga's cheese grits are made and ready to bake at some point.  I try not to plan ahead but lerd.  Those things require assembly and whatnot!  

Lauren's plants have really spiffed up our living space.  We prolly need some plant food or something.  This propane heat is rough on all of us.  I have spent today making decisions about my life and vocation.  More later.  Love ya'll.  Mean it ^j^
