Promise of a Better day by Tony Fortado

Waking up is not always easy.  Sometimes you wake up like you just finished a marathon.  The sleep wears you out.  Too lazy to get out of bed you can reach for the computer and get up to date right there with the pillow under your head.  When the gravity finally lifts so you can rise you stagger to the kitchen and pray the coffee will restore life to your body.  Winky a.k. a.  The Commander is up full of vinegar and she wants the garbage out.  Shouting commands The Commander cannot get Kadizzle motivated to go into the shocking environment of the outside world. Winky takes the garbage out.  There is big excitement the new rain barrell is up and running.  Sadly the lord will not provide enough rain to fill it.

Now the inspiration to go on. The magic new Sonos speakers are playing and a song comes on the Folk channel by Tony Fortado. The song title is Promise for a better day.  The song is a masterpiece, and here we go we are going to try to have that better day.  So here we sit gettin up to date.  The Commander is blasting money out of our wallet into Amazon's  kingdom.  Stuff will appear on our doorstep, and life will go on. Wink says the UPS man must think we are nuts, but we are Americans, and Americans push buttons and the rest of the world sends us trainloads of junk to haul to the dump.  Children sniff glue in India and sleep by the railroad tracks, and most of the world lives on two dollars a day, but we just click, click, click and oil for our bike chain comes to the door.  Jesus loves us and if those heathens would just accept Jesus the UPS man would bring them stuff too.
