burning pix to backup disk

trying to get the pix that we (Cat and I) have taken since I have had the iBook backed up to cd. 1334 pix to the disk and that leaves a couple of meg empty but is close enough for me. seem to have taken somewhere over 3000 pix since we got the Nikon Coolpix 2500. Got to get a gallery up somewhere/how.

Took a walk earlier. Then another with Cat later. Took the cam the second walk out and around. Didn't use it much at all. Barely had energy to get me out and about both times and only did it with help of a cane. Need to take some meds and lie down for a bit.

makes me wonder what they or even if they think at all.

he's gay! she's a sinner! God says they can't have communion!

damn if i know. either way. my feeling is its none of my or their business what anyones sexual orientation is.

makes me wonder if they (the ones trying to keep the gays from taking communion) think they have the right to speak for their god.

I sure as hell don't have the right to tell anyone what to or not to do unless it involves me or one of mine and I don't think anyone else does either. we each have to confront our maker alone. makes me almost "pity the fools" as someone once said…

still got the crud. whatever it is. running nose. full chest. can't think my way out of a second grade crossword puzzle. taking expectorant and it seems to be helping. some at least. putting me to sleep every time i take it but 3 hrs later when i wake i have more energy and head is cleared out some.

got some things done in here after the first batch this afternoon. cleared the top shelf of the computer center and put an old pair of speakers up there along with the McIntosh MA5100 Preamp-Amplifier and hooked the iBook to them. Sound is MUCH better now!

picked the first tomato today! haven't tried it yet. waiting to get a pix of it before eating… battery is charged and cam ready just me sleeping too many hours a day and having no operational brain right now. will try to get the snap taken sometime today.

guess i will try to get a bit more sleep before the nasties get here.

morning after feeling

been over 5 years now since i have had a drink and i still have mornings that feel like i had tied one on the night before. coated tongue and all. suspect it was the off insect repellent i used yesterday that caused it this morning. whatever it was i feel like hell this morning.

don't know what the day will bring. got a bunch of stuff i need to do but haven't figured out what the direction will be yet. one may figure it will be a bunch of nothing. and one may be right. it may end up being a couch and book day. then again may not.

just got a call from the herb shop about the pine tar soap being in. guess i get to try it now. most of the rash is gone but still have patches that are active and itching. the pears soap took care of most of it. or it and the cumarindine did. with a bit of hydrocortozone help. and vitamin e oil applied directly to all spots. so it may have been one of the above or more than likely a combo of all or some of them. who knows. just glad i am not itching (much) any more.

another sunday

another sunday.

another day. a day in a long list of days. nothing special. not about this one. or about any of them. some cost more to get through than others. some are cooler. some hotter. more or less comfortable. more mosquitoes by the day. i have got to start an eradication project. start at the front of the property and work back, clearing and removing all sources of standing water. would take forever. or the rest of my life anyway.

i have been writing a bit but not correctly or regularly. still trying to find the bloging nervonia. and too lazy or inept to do more than moan about it. try this and try that. should take the time to learn to use the programing equipment built into osx. the learning part is the problem. not sure it will stick. things aren't lately.

drifting through the days
bit of a summer haze
sketters and flies do bite
stiring anger at the spot

and this too dies. before it goes where it started. maybe someday. then probably not.

fire going to grill some steak on a bit later. just added more wood. probably shouldn't have but wanted it cooked over oak rather than the sycamore that was burning now. will be ashes in a couple of hours and ready to cook on then or a bit before. will try to get a picture of this contraption soon.

got to quit with the sweets. gaining too much weight. more meat gonna mean getting a half a pig or cow. got the room to put it i guess if we clean the freezers out. which they both need to be anyway.

a building is a must. buy or build. either will work. or both.

now that the truck is running i need to go to talledega and get the trailer and other stuff. first of the week is looking better for that.
