👉🏻 Link to yesterday’s post.
Holy Father, Clemenceau, a former French politician used to say « He, who’s not an anarchist in his twenties, is an idiot. He, who still is one in his forties, also is. ». I was quite the rebellious teen and maybe I took it quite late. It’s only when I found my former employer that I found some quietude. Sometime people rebel not for the thrill it gives them, but because they sense the world they live in doesn’t fit Your obvious presence. Godlessness is a source of anger. I never met a quiet anarchist, but I met religious people whose peaceful state of mind I envied. I praise You for this epiphany: Praying while craving for peace is like sipping drop after drop from a stalagtite when one is thirsty. It only takes patience to achieve serenity.
AGENDA
Today we celebrate Ursicinus.
Ursicinus (also Hursannus, Ursitz, Oschanne, fl. 620) was an Irish missionary and hermit in the Jura region. He was a disciple of Columbanus at Luxeuil who followed his master when he was banished from Burgundy in 610, but then retired as a hermit in the Doubs valley. Veneration of Ursicinus is attested since the 7th century. In Grandval, a church was dedicated to Ursicinus in 675. By the 11th century, he was part of the local canon of saints of the Besançon diocese. His feast day is on 20 December. Ursicinus' supposed sarcophagus is preserved in St-Ursanne in what is now the canton of Jura in Switzerland.

See you tomorrow, Frens!🤓
Amen. Went to school yesterday to help Ninky build her ginger bread house. It was a very fun but messy experience. She loved it that her Memaw and Pappy came to help her. Schools out until January after the New Year. The kids are riled up and ready for Santa. Son still doesn't have a full-time job but is working carpentry here and there. I keep telling him he needs to start his own business.
Mary!🤗💐
Last day of work here before 2 weeks of rest. Apero tonight with Swiss friends. We drive tomorrow morning to Burgundy. For the first time in 8 years, I don’t take a work laptop 🥳
Hurray! No work laptop. Enjoy yourself and you and Anne have a very wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year. Don't forget to pick up Chonchon and Thalie something nice for them to nibble or play with for Christmas. George and I got Izzy a rawhide chew for Christmas and we picked up the Feral Cats (Haha) a large bag of cat food. This is so funny. Let me tell you.
Everyday around 4 PM I open the front door to feed the cats and they're already bouncing and hitting the storm door. Yesterday, one of the cats was halfway up the storm door with his back feet holding onto the screen part and his front feet were like suction cups on the glass. It was funny. They do George the same way. They adopted us for some reason. When we go somewhere and pull into the driveway on our return, they all come running and stand at the corner like, "Are you going to feed me yet?" attitude. Hilarious.
Today I must wait for a call from Medicare for an appointment to enroll. Then George and I will go to town to pick up my months medicine. And then we will be driving to the VA for his appointment. It will be a full day like yesterday was. So much hustle and bustle. God bless and have a happy day.
I plan to treat the cats with some nice chicken bits, they cannot resist and once it’s all swallowed, you hear them purr themselves into sleep a really gratifying way.🤗💐
How soothing and content that must make you feel. When you see your pets happy, you know you've done good. Like Izzy, we made her a stocking for Christmas years ago. And when she sees the kids all open theirs, she patiently sits back and looks at you with those sad eyes saying, "Where's mine?" So we always put her something in her stocking each year.
Give Izzy a nice pat from me, please. Take excellent care of yourself: when you spread so much love, you get a loving home.🤗💐
Yes. I will gladly give her a hug and a pat from you. She doesn't get around like she once did. She has to circle the Living Room in order to get a running start to jump up on her love seat. We think she is partially deaf as she can't hear like she once did. We have to stomp the floor or bang on something to get her attention. But Thank God she is still with us. And she knows it's the Holiday Season as she knows I cook and decorate for both Thanksgiving and Christmas and that she will partake and get her fair share. After all , she is one of the family and has been for almost 16 of her 18 years of life. We got her when she was about 2 years old.
Good girl!❤️💐
Thanks. I like reading your prayer.
Thank you.🤗
