brenda's thoughts, watch out I'm Christian

Within minutes I was absorbed by the silt covered foliage.

All the rains had caused the streams, creeks and even the river to overflow its banks in places. The landscape was changed. Nature wasn't the only change agent at work though. People had left their mark too. Tire tracks, ruts, grooves scared the ground in places. I don't' know who Tommy and Markay are but their love will "endure through eternity". I don't know about their love but their vocabulary is impressive.

I leaned against a familiar tree to eat a few crackers (proactively monitoring blood sugar, growing older sucks) when a beaver or otter waddled from the dried grass into the water on the other shore. I still can't tell the difference. What ever it was, it wasn't interested in entertaining me so I guess that means it wasn't an otter.

Walking in the woods brings out the caveman in me. I was fantasizing about roasting meat; sausage, bacon, potatoes and onions, so I headed for the Waffle House (I should invest in that place).

Clanging and banging dishes

Hollering

"Scattered, smothered and capped"

"Who's washing dishes?"

"I need bacon"

"Me too" I want to holler out. Cholesterol is good for the soul.

My morning activities complete I head home to grade papers, make a big pot of vegetable soup, spend time with my.... (my next article should be titled "my son, my cat and their co-dependent relationship or Manifestations of Negative Attention Seeking"). Youngins!
