Saying for the Day
Oh, for the good old days when people would stop Christmas shopping when they ran out of money. ~Author Unknown

Picture of the Day
(From the Archives)

It’s Monday and time to reveal more of me.
On Raven’s blog I found two memes , a long one and a short one. Because we are so close to Christmas I decided to borrow only the short one.
All I have to do is list 6 things you do every day that make your life better. ( Raven only had five)

1. I thank God for a new day and ask Him to guide me in it.
2. I take two breathing treatments, one in the morning and one at night, to keep my lungs as open as possible.
3. I take a horrible number of pills.
4. I blog. What would life be without blogging?
5. I play with my trains. Every man needs some toy.
6. I spend an extended time in evening prayer. I thank God for the day. I pray for the needs of others. I try to remember the prayers asked for on blogs. I close with the Lord’s Prayer.

News from Pigeon Falls

The little town in my basement where the trains still run, dragons fly, and life is back to normal.
Yesterday around noon the shadow suddenly vanished. That’s right it just vanished. There was everything that had been under the shadow , all of it unhurt.
Over at the Maki farm where it all began his dog was back as good as ever. All his cows and chickens were back. Even the two Homeland Security people who had vanished were back. They were found sitting on the backs of cows facing the tail. They had no idea of how they got there. They remembered nothing from the time they entered the shadow until it disappeared. The cows, of course, couldn't talk.
The Homeland Security people who just minutes before the shadow vanished had been demanding that an Atomic Bomb be dropped in order to save the world. Now were desperately trying to find out why it was gone.
Some kid told them to go talk to Herman at his mother’s house . So they did. He gave them some crazy story about putting together a kid’s puzzle and this made the shadow vanish. They decided he was some kind of local flake. If the best equipment they could bring to the task couldn’t get rid of the shadow there was no way putting together a puzzle would do it. Of that they were sure. They finally decided that something they had tried had had a delayed reaction and they had gotten rid of the shadow. That’s the way they wrote their final report.
But In Pigeon Falls people knew that Herman was the hero. He was the town Seer and the one who saved it.

Wrap Up

Just one of those days. I blogged in the morning. Then Betty and I went back to cleaning up the living room. My sister Chris called. She never calls. It must be close to Christmas. She had already opened the gifts we center her. I got a stange package from Santa Claus and I was going to open it but there was a card also from Santa Claus that said " Don't you dare open until Christmas". So I won't. Even the return address said North Pole. Betty and I wrapped gifts. Then Betty went to her eye exam. I posted the Christmas bulletin for St. Mark's. Now I need a breathing treatment.
