Second

 In today's readings the Jew's get jealous of the success of Paul and Barnabas and kick them out of town.

Jesus speaks rather mysteriously of him and the father being united.."To have seen me is to have seen the Father".

I took some hydranga cuttings to the tip. A salvation army shop truck pulled up beside me and threw away some nice looking beds, sofas and table and chairs. I thought I would have put them in my house. So it goes.

Rosary, Mass and confession this morning. Might drive up to the grave after. On the way to the tip I looked down on the Hutt River near Stokes valley thinking it might be pleasant to have a cast into it. The back drop of the golf course gave it a look of seclusion. I've paid for a licence but haven't used it this season. 

Home made Muesli for breakfast. I found an easy recipe in which you just 'fry' the oats and nuts briefly then add whatever dried fruit you like.

Have fun and don't sin.

 Australian police fire tear gas at aboriginies.

Humanitarian aid to Gaza stopped in international waters.

Iranians starving and thirsty with little electrical power.

Palistinians say NZ Super fund biased and investing in Israel and 'war crimes'.

Paul tells the Jews that the message of salvation is meant for them,

Jesus tells Thomas "I am the truth the way and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me".

I'll see my brothers and sisters at mid-day Mass.

Thursday 2

Ok, I'm a lonely f**k with no one to talk to; so here is wot I did this morning.

I took some stuff to the Sallies and the  silverstream tip. On the way back I stopped at EarthLink Recyclers in Wingate. I've been on the look out for a better driver and I liked one in a set of clubs they had. It had three drivers and a couple of irons plus the bag. There was also a trundler. I didn't muck around and bought the whole lot for $43. 

On the way home I stopped at the driving range and whack, missed, sliced 50 balls. (I did spray and scrub it to remove that 'tippy' smell and mud).

My last three shots. I was getting tired and sore ok!

Off to adoration of the blessed sacrament soon.

How's your day going?

Thursday

 Nice to see RBB forgiving TC's sin. I watched a video where a popular protestant said the Bible says to confess our sins to each other. I'm not so sure if that is wise other than an apology.

The chat is about the price of concerts. I think 4k and sound bars negate the justification to spend hundreds. If you are making it part of a romantic weekend away ... fair enough.

I'm off to Mass. Have a blessed day.

AKISH! Sorry its the cold air.

Enjoy God's world and say thank you.

Good Wednesday

 My new piece of rag on my chin rest is working out as an aid. No more red welts under my chin nor sore collarbones.

Not that I couldn't play without it. Not that a clip on support underneath wouldn't be advantageous. Not that I can let go with my left hand.

Have you noticed how AI generated videos on Youtube ALWAYS start with three sentences beginning with 'Not'. It's like an AI virus or obsession. As soon as I hear them I flick to another video hoping its not a long winded AI generated thing. 

Also if you watch them you will see absurd pictures inserted. It might be an account of the Napoleonic wars and suddenly there will be a photo from WW1. Do the people posting them not even check the video first; or are people not even posting them ...now that's creepy.

Nothing much planned today apart from mid-day Mass. I should make a start on the bathroom. To be honest I enjoy just pottering around doing housework, watching videos and playing Video games. I think I could happily retire if I didn't need money! Of course I miss my darling L.

Have fun and ....

Slow down and don't waste notes

I've noticed musicians who ignore the shortage of notes. Lets remember there's a war on.
