Why not get smarter?

 Over on the other blog " The National Association for the Advancement of Humanity",  Kadizzle has posted some very good youtube videos. The one posted today is the result of laying in bed listening to the fellow giving the lecture on the blog. Just discovered the guy, but he has some striking insights. Give it a try. 

Now back to Sunday reality. The kids are back at their homes. Was very nice having the tribe here. Kadizzle noticed the big bottle of liquor that was sealed in the closet is now unsealed and half empty. The son in laws put a nice dent in it. The food was excellent. Fran loves to cook, so Fran and Megan teamed up to make the most wonderful dinner.  Erin worked on the pies. To the Amazement of Kadizzle, he managed to keep his weight down. Forgot to mention the gravy , and the stuffing, wow.  

The grandchildren were a delight. Evie is an amazing artist at 7, and her brother Quinn at five is full of pickle juice. He loves to explore the woods. He made his own ax out of a bone and a stick. He wants us to send it to him.  Sylvie, the amazing, Sylvie, did her homework. She gave us all a psychology experiment exam she developed. Her experiment proved her idea correct. Indeed the gang should be thankful we have a wonderful talented family, with no flumpers.  What is a flumper? If you have fished and throw a fish on dry land you will notice how it fops around. That is a flumper. 

Back to Normal

 Soon the Giant and her parents will head toward Denver. The Snidly's and their parents are on the plane flying to New York.  Quiet will encompass the house. Of course this morning the Democrats will meet. Looks like another sunny day. For two evenings we sat around the fire pit and enjoyed the evening. The stars were very nice last night. Poor old Kadizzle had to get up at 2 A. M. to drive the New York gang to the airport. Had a wonderful Thanksgiving with the family. Evie is turning out to be an astounding artist for her age. Art seems to run strong in the family. 

Happy Turkey Day

 The noise from the squeaking grandchildren is both joyful, and nerve racking. The house is full and the rented house is full, yet still sister Patty is sleeping in the 5th wheel beside the house. It is great to have such a gathering. What will become of the country as the rich gobble up so much. Megan told of a filthy rich family in her area that is having the Hamilton cast over. Special costumes will be provided for them at a cost of over 100 thousand. So the super rich will have turkey for perhaps 500 thousand. They deserve it, they brought us poverty. Over on the National Association Blog may wish the Orange Turkey a happy Thanksgiving. 

The Giant, and the Snidlys are here

 Wonderful Thanksgiving shaping up. Both daughters are here with their families. We had fun last night plying Uno. Megan's two little ones Sylvie, and Quinn have so much fun with the Giant, Erin's daughter. Evie is an amazing artist for her age, and Quinn has so much energy he might explode. Entertaining the gang is the mission. We rented a separate house for Megan's family. Fortunately the house is within walking distance. Hope everyone has a good holiday. 

The Giant is here

 My granddaughter the "Giant" is here. Now she has grown taller than grandpa. Her dog Danny went nuts running around the house like he had to know where everything was. The Giant has her first boyfriend, and we call him "The Devil" because that was the role he played in the play where they became friends. Grandpa Kadizzle was walking the dog last night with Sylvie and asked her what was the most fun she had with her boyfriend the Devil. Her reply was hilarious. Kissing was the answer. Grandpa cannot help but brag about Sylvie. She is a grade A student at the Denver School for the Arts, she dances, sings, is an athlete, and has a great sense of humor. Tonight the magic snoochels will fly in from New York with Megan and Sam. Quinn is six and Evie is eight.  We will have a house full. 

The Snidleys are coming

From Denver, and New York the family is coming for Thanksgiving. Sister Patty will come from Cottonwood. Then top it off with grandchildren, which will include the "Giant".  The Giant has been so busy in plays, modeling, and taking to the Devil. The Devil is Sylvie's boyfriend. We call him that because it was his role in the play where Sylvie and the Devil had to embrace. That started the fire. Sylvie is the Giant. She has grown so much she is tickling six feet tall. Megan will come with Quinn, and Evie her little guys that are growing like weeds. Grandpa will be delighted to see them all . 

The Rain has poured down in the desert

The trees must be drunk on water. The parched soil has been dry for so long. Rain has moved ashore from the Pacific and drenched Arizona. The rain is welcome, but we are so used to sunshine it is very different to be living in a gloomy world, but that is the price. The elk wandered down the street oblivious to the rain. Since our backyard is the holding basin for all the water in our settlement, the basin is our rain gauge. It often fills up quickly, but the water percolates through the ground and is soon gone. The basin has been full most of the week, but this morning the water level is down. The mystery is where does all that water go. Some runs down hill to the neighbors. Someday Kadizzle we will have to follow the temporary stream and see where it goes.
