Well, I haven't blogged in a while. For once in my life, I haven't had much to say these days. I started my "hate trail" then decided "who the hell cares?" Then decided, I don't even care! I just don't think that I have much to say that anybody wants to listen to, so I've decided to just shut up. I wish more people in the world thought this way. The loss of John Edwards on the campaign trail has really dampened my spirits and the more I watch of this "campaign" the sicker I get. I'm putting my money on Obama and not listening anymore. I've made up my mind (AGAIN) and now I am just watching reruns of Crossing Jordan on A&E, going to the YMCA religiously, losing weight, starting classes again on Monday, looking for a part-time job and basically, just trying to exist in MY world. I can't change this place. No ONE person can. It's going to take a massive movement to get the people with the money to listen to what we have to say and what we are going through on a day to day basis. And face it, Americans aren't willing to sacrifice anything these days. In order to hit the oil companies, the chain stores, the grocery markets......we would all have to just stay home and do without for a while. No work, no school, no NOTHING. And it would have to be coordinated....200 people refusing to buy gas for a week? So what? 2 MILLION people refusing for a couple of months.....hey, maybe. But, sadly, that would mean giving up something and even sadder, there just aren't enough of us out there willing to do it. So, I am trying to survive in this screwed up country that I am becoming to abhor with each passing day, while I search for a new country to live in or a log cabin in the woods to retreat to. I'm longing for the day when I can own a smidgen of land, grow my own food, raise my own meat and poultry, till my land by hand, fuel my home with nature and stop worrying about how much of my money is going in some fat cat's pocket.
So this ends my blogging life. I am now re-focusing my efforts on myself just like everybody else in this country has. Screw everybody until I get what I want and then I'll disappear into a quiet existence and will never again worry about gas prices, or milk prices. There was a time in this world when everything was acheived by hard work, I am no longer embracing the future but instead am going to backwards....to a simpler life. I don't need a cell phone, a car or even this computer. I will use these tools for as long as necessary, but I assure you, they will be the first things I sell when it comes time to purchase my horse and buggy! So I leave you with these few words......
My Children:
Are good people, with good friends and good values. I've done my job well.
My Cats:
Are the most loving, comforting creatures I have ever known. I feel lucky to have chosen (or have them chose me) these two companions.
My little dog:
Is sweet and kind and just tries to stay out of the way until nobody else is looking and then he'll sneak in and curl up to me and sleep peacefully by my side for hours.
My big dog:
Stays. But he doesn't want to.
Sits. But would rather jump.
Walks. But would rather run.
Loves me. Unconditionally. Forever.
Thanks for listening. So long......mh |
