Z Is The Twenty-sixth Letter Of The Alphabet

Sure didn't zap thought the A to Z challenge. Once I get started on a project depending what it is. I can zap though it.

There plenty to tell about crazy Abdul but since I'm using the word “zap” it would be nice if I kept to the letter Z.

must have been in my early 20's and was starting to date my future hubby. Our local fair was going on. Usual that held last half of August and once in while the first weekend of September.

Maybe a few leaves came loose of there branches but all the trees are still leaf out. Giving a nice shade those who choose a little shade.

Not much changes year to year when it comes to our fair.

There was one year (name) had electric cattle prod and he was chasing women though the fair ground, and giving the them zap with it. I'm guessing he was zapping them on the rear end.

Monday the 28^th of April Murphy and I went out on the North bench place. To zap some TANSY and KNAPWEED

weed both are a illegal weed.

There log just west of our property and should be doing ares in near future.

We want to get a handle on the weeds.

As Murphy was out zapping weeds . Don't worry I haul water and spotted out the weeds that need zap.

When Murphy was zapping weeds on his brother Earl old garden old spot. I went into what was Earl add on to his trailer. But we have some items in there. Murphy and I haul trash out of there. But we could go though it again.

I grab a box and a bucket of ceramic supplies. Fist I'll go though the paint and if it beyond hard as a rock it getting tossed.

If there slightly soft I'm going to dry to revive it.

Z Is Zap

No more A to Z challenge and I just don't see my self taking part in 2015.

EDITOR NOTE....For some reason I'm having trouble with my internet connection. At a friend house now and I'm thinking it the router. So I might not be on as offten which could be a good thing.

Y Is The Twenty-fifth Letter Of The Alphabet.

Pretty Much done cleaning out the shed/barn shelf's. Far enough long that we could hold a yard sale. Never got behind the shelves notice stuff slid off. And also there items up in the rafters and in feed trough. But that would be a good summer project and maybe I can do anther yard sale in September.

Going though box after box. One can look into a person history.

It pretty beat up, this was toy that was in my grandparents McCalmant home. For some odd reason I was attach to it and Grandpa Edgar gave it to me.

I'm guess the other grand kids also played with. Out of there 28 grandchildren. I'm the 24^th one. Actual it had a smokey bear uniform on. Clueless were that went.

 Not only boxes but there were all sort of containers out on the shed shelves. I ran into a container which held some jewelry. Not sure if it a brother or cousin to my 2 great granddad Gilman that worked or own a jewelry store. His name was Theodore. I'm guessing that were some of the jewelry came though.

As I looked at lot of the items. A chance reflect on someone youth. My old rocking chair from the early sixty. My great grandmother Dora gold pocket watch for the 1800's. Also a cameo of my Grandma Elsie she married my grandpa Clarence in 1903. Actual I sort curiosity about the cameo in the hair it has a little skull.

My dad Harold teamster union pin of 15 years, he retire after 50 years of working for the railroad. Some old compasses and other odds and ends.

I'm clueless how long my grandparents had smokey the bear but the oldest grandchild was born in 1944 and the youngest about 1964 or 65.

X Is The Twenty Fourth Letter in Alphabet.

The other day I stop in at our local Court House to get sample ballot of our up coming primary. Which is held May 20^th.

Did you know you can't put a check mark on the ballot by the candidate you want to elected. It need to be an “X” by the candidate you want.

Idaho one needs to be affiliated with a political party. Question time...Could someone tell me the different between registering with a party and being affiliate with one?

So Idaho being one of the REDDEST states. At this point it only does any lefty leaning political to “vote for a more gentle republican”. So I been studying the republican ballet, Actual I know some life time democrat who is running on the republican primary ticket. Opinion time...At this time a democrats doesn't have a shout and four haulers they'll get elected in Idaho

Confession time...I wondered were the term “ X mark the spot” came from or what it actual means...

I took part in the 2014 A TO Z CHALLENGE and what a challenge it was. Most of all I liked visiting a bunch of new blogs.

Lot of bloggers out there and all sort of them.

Everyday though out the entire month of April one would visit 5 bloggers that they never visit before.

There is no way I would every have chance to stop in an visit, who took part in A to Z challenge.

Last figure they were over 2045 bloggers who took part in this little challenge.

This took a lot of time. As I speak right now “I don't see doing it for 2015” and things did get neg-elated around the place. Confession time...I need to take the blame for my self, for not managing my time.

Those who took time and visit my blog. Thank you and hope to see you in the blogger world.

U Is The Twenty First Letter Of The Alphabet

I bet there a lot of UN in the world . I'm taking on world of un-balance. Opinion time...the world is un-balance which is now causing all sorts of afflict on one self and others.

The golden rule now is “who has the most gold rules” Sure there will never be true equality in world. But the economy is leaning to heavy one way.

The ones with more then a pocket full of gold is exploiting our environment. People may laugh at me but we need to respect our earth. Question time..After we exploit are earth then what? Let her run naked as she spins in stress around the sun.

  I been going and it been a slowly though are shed/barn shelves. The shed is so un-balance. There stuff out there, no one can assess. Got to much that others can use including us.

Haven't truly hit the smaller bed room haul out the worthless junk, I can't see giving or selling items that I wouldn't take or purchase.

Pretty much on the down hill side of shed shelves. Then a little tweaking in the bed room. Then the yard sale can be set up.

I'm not out to line my pocket with silver or gold. This is how things will be price....Give what you think is fair and you can afford.

They'll be less then ten items with price tags. What doesn't go will be heading down the road to one of our local thrift stores.

No one person can un balance the world. But every one of us can put a little more balance into it.

Faith Granddaughter Anna thirteenth birthday was all sort celebrated. Murphy and I gave her $10 cash. She got some more cash, clothing and make up.

Well my son Sawyer took some of them back home and he liked them.

S Is The Nineteenth Letter Of the Alphabet.

I often wonder about my self. Let say I wonder about my self in a lot of area. Mostly when it comes to work recently.

Most jobs I have the management or owners were just a plain “asshole” who would talk down to you. Insult you.

There been jobs I left in tears that I even consider suicide.

The only thing I figure one could do is put up with the shit. Be super tight with your pay check. Sooner or later get your self laid off.

Or tell the management or owners to shove there job up there ass.

I sort of been looking for a job. Idaho is well known for there LOW WAGESI stop in at ASPEN office on my way home from work. I was even wondering to my self “why in hell I'm even pulling in” I guess one can't believe every thing they hear. I talk to a lady who was once an RN and they were willing to pay her $11.35 an hour. I briefly talk to her and she said her client was an asshole and she worked as hard as a floor RN.

I talk to Denni at Easter lunch, who got laid off at our local food bank. She heard that some people been started as low as $8.35 an hour.

With Idaho Partner In-care. A lease my average wages in $11.78 an hour. Actual there one of the better paid agency.

But I could use more hours not looking for a 40 hour week. Lease my two clients aren't assholes and they treat me with respected.

In anther area I wonder about my self why I care about others. I tend to do small things for those I can. Like purchase a few items for those who are struggling, take them place such as doctor appointments. I figure I would help out my friend Alice oldest son. Qwin a little bit each month. I told you about him, he gets $721 a month from SSI for his VISION TROUBLE and he has two son he support on this. He gets a state SUPPLEMENT possible up to $53 a month. The state next to us, Washington gets up to $197 for there state supplement....”Damn Socialist”

Confession time...I'm a little behind helping Qwin out.

I often wonder why I even give rats ass about others maybe I should be more self center.

 I been trying to get out the crab grass in flower bed. The one I call my “Royal Sunshine”,I name all of my flower beds.

The crocus are just finishing up.

The prim roses are just starting to bloom. I've tried growing prim roses over the years and I'm lucky if I make them though the year.

Faith gave me whole bunch last year, Murphy and I planted them around. At this point it looks like the ones in royal sunshine bed survive. Planet them in the other flower bed, at this point there no sign of any of them.

As one can see there not much going on in the royal sunshine flower bed

I sure hope the drumstick prim roses made it. The drumstick reminds me of a shorter version of flowering allium.

Don't have much of later season bloom. So I start some yellow and purple zinnias. Also purchased some yellow hollyhock seeds

Here is five question I recently thought up

Why are some people Assholes? Some people takes to being an ASSHOLE easier then others.

Why is wrong to question the teaching of God? If aren't allowed to question something I don't care what hell it is. There trying to control your life.

   Is the world going to come to an end? I google that one and it a big can of worms. So I did the question again..Does the pagan believe the world going to come to an end? RAGNAR everything never truly ends just goes though it cycle of life. Some things and people just take longer then others.

O Is The Fifteenth Letter In The Alphabet

1. We should have combination of a flat and progressive federal tax system. A few personal deduction,  $50,000 a year per person. A deduction per child of $20,000,  if the child is attending a credited school....After two basic deduction your federal income tax would be as following...$70,000 to $280,000 at 5%...$280,001 to $1,400,000 at 20%...1,400,001 to $12,000,000 tax rate should be 50%. Anything over $12,000,001 your tax rate should be 80%. During Eisenhower administration our tax rate for some was 91%.  
2. Federal minimum wage should be $12.00 and hour. If employees who choose not to pay $15.00 an hour should have their name printed in local newspaper as “general exploiters”. Back during the great depression in 1930's any one who got public assistant had there name publish in the newspaper.
3. There should be a global tax, anyone who can afford to take there money off shore; so they won't pay taxes in there own country. They need to pay global tax of 85% from the money they take off shore.
4. National sale tax of 2% on everything except food and medicine.
5. There should be a one payer system for all medical, mental health, and dental, should be base on a percentage of income. 1% to 5% of your net income. If someone choose to live a health life style you would pay smaller percentage, then those who choose not to and pay a higher percentage.
6. The money one pays into social security,  the cap needs to remove. Until it remove social security tax is a regressive tax.
7. Anyone who is on disability your payment should be started at $960 a month.
8. Low income people should have voucher checks for things such as soap, toilet paper, and other basic needs. Snap (food stamps) doesn't purchase these items.
9. If a person income is under $1,200 or $14,400 a year. From disability or social security retirement. They can apply for a quarterly check to fix or purchase necessity in life. The cap on this would be 18,000 a year...I've worked with enough disable and handicap people and all of there income is under $800 a month. This low income doesn't give them any wiggle room. Things break down and need maintenance. People hot water tanks goes, oven elements goes out, socks needs to be purchase, bedding needs to be updated, tires need purchasing, and etc. 
10. I believe age majority should be 21. I've often wonder if a 17 year was accused of a crime and was tired as an adult. Found not guilty. Could he/she walk out of court house and purchase some beer from the local store?. No , but during the trial they treat him/her as an adult....age of majority needs to one solid age.
11. I think everyone between 18 to 20 should do some type of civil service. Something like Franklin Roosevelt “New Deal” program P.W.A
12. 1.  Marijuana should be treated like alcohol and nicotine products and should be tax like them.
    2. Student who need to get a loans to go to collage. Should pay 3% to 8% of your monthly income, depending on your G.P.A for 10 years. Higher your GPA is lower the your payment would be.

I was in our bedroom this past week looking out the window. Notice a strange bird flying real low above the field. At first I thought it was seagull and I know there usual in flocks and near water. It was gliding so beautiful.

So I called out to Murphy “look at that bird” and I ask “what kind of bird it is” He said a “ball bat” or a NIGHT HAWK and haven't seen one since he was a teenager. But there also known around this area as a BULL BAT

M Is The Thirteen Letter Of The Alphabet

I been total shock how much I like being a mom. Some people thought certain ages of off spring are just terrible. I joyed the terrible twos and unbearable teen years.

When I was growing up I was far from a girly girl. I didn't play with dolls much. I rather go outside an rumble tumble with the neighbor hood boys.

One time a psychiatric told me when was a teenager in mid seventy that I had desire to be a “male” See even to this day there things I don't enjoy other female so called aggravate me. Like shopping or playing nasty little female games of cattiness.

But I had desire to raise a family. Confession time..I prefer male company over female company.

Raising and being part of Sawyer and Bart life. I wouldn't trade if for all the tea in china. I was there mom not a friend. Murphy and I parent. Opinion time...I don't think being your children friend and not parent does them any good in long run.

I don't believe being overly strict has any good result either.

Now both of the boys flew the nest. My oldest one is married to lovely girl Betty. I stay out of there life. Me getting involve in there life will only cause conflict.

Sure I have a good relationship with both of them. Actual someone told me they could see me being close to my daughter in law.

Confession time...I get tired of people asking me if I like my daughter in law. Yes I like my daughter in law not because she married my son. Because she a very lovely kind human being. That deserve common respect . I haven't yet heard anyone asking Murphy if he likes his daughter in law.

Bart is now dating Diane and she went to school with Betty and graduate out of high school with Betty in 2006.

I feel the same about Diane as I do Betty she to is a very lovely kind human being. That deserve common respect.

Being a mom once your children leaves home and is being a productive and responsible adult of society is whole different ball game. Plus it a lot easier to be a mom to grown children.

For a whileLADIES OF LETTERS was on public television and both Murphy and I enjoy watching this show.

One might not believe a show about two ladies corresponding to each other might not be all that great of a show.

It was funny and every Thursday evening Murphy and I would set in living room and watch “ladies of letter”

Murphy said this show remind him of Quenella and I. She and I been sending note cards for ages even we see each other in person and talk on the phone.

I recall my mom writing letters to her sister and she would address the envelope Mrs (using husband first name) and there married last name.

When Murphy and I got an envelope address this way I about bust a gut do to laughter.

At one time our basic communication was in form of LETTER WRITING I even recall magazine would even have section of pen pals that you could correspond with. I know people who would write page after page to there penpal. Confession time...I never found such penpals.

At this time I send letters on note cards to some ladies. I found though a facebook group called “witches and wiccan penpals”

Not sure how safe this is but there is a site called PENPAL WORLD I know when people back in day was looking for a penpal would just put a few lines about them self and there snail mail address.

I don't know what it is but it nice to receive a letter in your snail mail box.

Editor Note... If your looking for the photohunt it will be below for the month of April. I'm taking part in A TO Z CHALLENGE 

BATMAN was on the Television and I was a batman fan. The one that Adam West and Burt Ward star in. I got my hand on anything batman related.

I even had a bat kite. Not sure what it look like to be honest with you. Oh I know it was black and had eyes looking down at you.

So my dad, Harold (Pete) help me but it together. My mom Myra found some old rags made from towels for the tail. Never could figure out why a kite need a tail. After the kite was assembled my dad and I went out in field across the street. He held the kite as I ran and up went my bat kite.

I was really impress watching those bat eyes looking down on me.

My dad told me about his BOX KITE when he was young. He told me some people had pretty fancy box kite. But his was pretty plain. I've never seen a real box kite, let lone fly one.

Every Easter I got my sons there Kites and some time other kids kites.

Now I can see were a kite would burn a few calories

I'm clueless or I don't want to remember how I got this Ginormous load of dishes. I must of bake something. Hubby don't bake. But he does cook.

Dishes are usual done on daily bases. I wouldn't say there done a 100% of the time, once day. But I would say our dishes are done daily at 96% of the time.

My son Bart gave me this necklace and ear rings for Christmas. I have a hunch his girl friend Diane picked it out.

The stone is actual  SEA SEDIMENT JASPER When I first saw it I thought it was turquoise stone, I was wrong.

One thing I need to do is get my ears re-punched. I let my holes close shut.

J Is The Tenth Letter In The Alphabet

Lot of people have said wise words and gave leader ship to many. I don't  following in one spiritual  path in life. Question all of them.

I prefer the PAGANISM which allows freedom to follow other paths such as Christianity, shamanism, humanism, and etc. It doesn't scare you away from free thought.

Opinion time..There is no free will in the christian faith. God gives you free will to choose to be christian and to except Jesus as your only personal savior, so you'll have eternal life. What crock of shit. 

JESUS taught and had good ways of dealing with human kindness.

But then To bad apostle Paul got involved in the christian faith. MATHEW 25 35 TO 40 But also Jesus talk about shunning and being intolerant of others, such verse as MARK 6:11 , So if someone have different view then Christianity, Just don't tolerate it. JOHN 1:10 see every thing is made for the christian even heaven. The rest of us our heading to hell or we will be recycle back to earth to learn and teach lessons. 1 JOHN 2:22 How sure are we that Jesus is the way to eternal life how about Buddha is he/she a lair. I've had more dirty deed done by christian, then other faith. 2 John 1:7 No if you speak against any faith that is built from Abraham your out to deceive people.

 

Come right down to it Jesus was a REBELLIOUS JEW and wasn't a very bright one. He goes into temple and throws money around.

Opinion time..It would be same as if I went into wal-mart and start breaking things up. Sure I know wal-mart and the one percent could pay more to there works. If I behave like that , wouldn't got hung to cross. I would get my ass haul off to jail.

 I've never seen JESUS with his tool belt on. Isn't he a carpenter. But he has a lot of word of wisdom and so does a lot of other people.

So Murphy came up with the ideal of placing a drilled board to the post. So when we stretch the wire it would be more stable.

I often wonder about who don't have any humor to there life. There sucking on lemons.

Three priest was standing by the pearly gates waiting for Saint Peter to let them in to Heaven. Saint Peter ask the first priest “have you every fooled around with a girl” the first priest replied “No” so for being such a good man and leaving those nasty women a lone. He got him self a new Cadillac to drive in heaven.

Now it was the second priest turn to be let into heaven. Saint Peter ask him the same question “Have you every fooled around with a woman” The priest said shyly “Well once during my High School prom, I felt under her dress”

Saint Peter told the second priest “oh that back in high school so you get a dodge to drive around in heaven.

So now it was the third priest and Saint Setter ask the priest “Have you every fooled around with a woman” The priest replied “Hell yes got all the ass I could get. Some time after Sunday masses I would diddle two or three of the ladies” Saint Peter looked at him and said “That's not very becoming of priest but since you are honest. I'll let you in heaven with a beat up ole clunker”

All the priest was up in heaven driving around.

The first priest who receive the Cadillac was laying on fluffy white cloud just rolling around laughing un-controllable.

So the third priest who drove the clunker pulled beside the first priest and ask him what so funny.

The first priest answered “The pope just past me a pogo stick”
