Slow and low.

Not getting as much done as fast as I would like. But I am tracking better than I might have hoped. Getting out of bed and going has been a struggle today. Still, a trip to town to check on the tv and such, do a bit more shopping, then be back in time to finish the bedroom box move should still work. I might get more than that done, I might get less. But I absolutely have to clear the bedroom of boxes. Tomorrow the new bed arrives. I have paid for 3 out of the 5 bills this morning too, setting one up for automatic pay. I am having trouble getting online or anyone on the phone for another utility bill, but I was able to pay it. Hmm, might send one through the mail today while in town. Leaving only one to figure out. So, some things done.

Looking through the news, while trying to get things going, I often see things I want to post, offering some comments. I rarely do that, but today is one of those days.

College kids, the intellectual hope of any nation? Yeah, well, not all of them. I think this story puts things in perspective. Way to go Skyler! Keep taking those pictures. Your future is brighter than some of your subjects.

Okay, this next set regards wildlife and the options we have. In this case, I can only imagine the waste and expense involved. Handling wildlife IS our responsibility, but when become so forward that we become backward... to the point of massive slaughter, I have to think something is very wrong. In this next case, I do not think there is an option if the end is disappointing. So far, other than perhaps in California, there are no such thing as animal psychiatrists. Though I would dearly love to see a self-proclaimed one give it a whack... in a locked cage, unarmed, mind you. Well, heck, I would let any who wanted to feel the animals pain go on in. Call me sentimental. While not always an option, some animals are too old or big for this to work, I had to chuckle at this story. I hope it works in the long term too. Something about teaching them while they are young. I really did not think the story could be true. Still chuckling.

Oh, fine. I am about to shower and ship out.
