Well, you've read the notes, the notes were askew and crooked, and now it is time for you to post until the crooked cows come home.

Today is Epiphany, or Three Kings Day, in the Christmas calendar.

I would like to offer this selection.

This is also a day to ponder why wannabe Hitler Trump isn't rotting in a cell for treason, sedition, and crimes against humanity.

Today is my second day of radiation treatments. I also need to locate a Covid testing location and take care of that. I can only do it after I finish up the radiation because of an Amazon Fresh delivery and a phone search for a location in my area.

TOD:

Yes. I’ve been making little trips back onto Facebook and I’ve come to realize how much I don’t miss it. But I do like a few groups, like Zola Readers and Fans of On the Twentieth Century.

This morning I must go on a brief panic-shopping trip for a few essentials.
Sorry to be part of the crowd, but a man's got to do what a man's got to do.

There's a CityMD, 88th Street & Broadway, with walk-in Covid testing, so I called Access-a-Ride to see if I could change the address of my return ride from home to there, and I can't. Damn!

If I weren't waiting on an Amazon Fresh delivery this morning, I would go up now. Damn!

The weather is supposedly going to be messy tomorrow morning. Damn!

I hate my life.

That seems so odd, that they can't or won't make that kind of change.

I wonder if it's possible to simply ask the driver on the return trip to let you off there because of a last minute change in plans? How could they refuse? (Oh, I know. They'll find a way.)  :(

BK -- I was going to post a picture, and once again have gotten the message:

Your attachment has failed security checks and cannot be uploaded. Please consult the forum administrator.

It's a phone-camera jpeg about 140 kb in size. This has happened to a few of us over the past several months. I believe each time it's happened to me, it's been a photo I've copied from my iPhotos to Preview and resized to fit. That usually works as it should, but once a particular image has "failed security checks", there's seemingly nothing I can do to change that.

Anyhoo... last night (actually early this morning) I had one of those dreams. The kind that before you're even fully awake from, you're literally saying out loud, "Thank God it was only a dream".

It's a sad day for this country.

One year ago today, 245 years of our Republic, founded as a Constitutional Democracy, came under attack.  The forces that set all that in motion remain steadfastly determined to make it happen again.

Pray for all of us.

On a brighter note, the geese have returned to the pond behind my house.

I haven't seen the geese since early last summer. They have been around, but in a pond separated from mine by a road.

It's a sad day for this country.

One year ago, 245 years of our Republic, founded as a Constitutional Democracy, came to a crashing end.  It is not an irreparable ending, of course, but the forces that set all that in motion remain steadfastly determined to make it happen again.

Pray for all of us.

Amen.

The Romans, I'll give you.  I'm not too keen on many of my Countrymen at the moment.

While I am happy to see geese, I am being reminded how NOISY they are.

My yard is the preferred location for their annual mating rituals.  It gets VERY noisy at times.
