Went to friends this weekend, we fished and fished and fished, salmon swimming upstream to spawn this time of year and we were catching them on their way to spawn, and, die, they were 7 miles from their spawning ground so they were still fresh and nice looking fish. I caught a couple
'pinks' and watched my friends' kids catch about 20, so, we know who the fisherman are, now, don't we :D


We filleted some of that salmon and put some butter and lemon on them and wrapped them in tin foil and put 'em on the barbie. I'm not a real fan of salmon's taste, it's OK, but this was very, very good. Fresh, light, flavorful. The sign of good seafood is if it's got a less fishy taste, and, these salmon had very little fishy flavor. The meat was flaky and mouth-watering. :)

That's one of the many amazing things of God, the different flavors of food, like shrimp has a shrimp taste, chicken tastes like chicken, and, beef is beef. And, vegetables all have a unique flavor, some are close in taste, like a carrot and a parsnip are similar and a radish and colarabi are similar but it's all got it's own unique flavors. We serve a gracious God, who thought things out so well in so much as creating foods that we can eat in our lives. What if there was only one food? Manna, for example. That would really be a 'blah' eating existence. God knows. Thank Him every day and every time you think of all the great things He hath done, for you, for us all on Earth :)

Catherder - you didn't compromise. It's more than just the money, it was you; YOU didn't compromise - you didn't wait for the cock to crow even once and I'm proud for you and may God shine His Light on your way.

I'll be honest, I wish I were like you. There seems like too many mouths around here and when they're not eating they're talking and I compromise again and again well past the third crow because I think this thing won't happen or that thing will fall apart or I'll lose the other thing and it's because I have no faith. Your example has shamed me.

Thanks for taking a higher road. It reminds people like me who's bar isn't set so high.

I'm sorry Nodmyheadlikeyeah - I meant no offense. Sometimes I - well - just seemingly always sorry for what I say. I don't mean anything in a mean way. Well yeah I do too so that's out - but I didn't mean this in a mean way believe it or not. Peace be with you and your children -

It's so weird, how much I've been fighting off this feeling of loneliness and slight anxiety. Especially when I'm around a group of people. I just get this pain and I want to go home. Maybe I'm depressed again. I'll find a way through it, though. I always do.

Hi Lil'wabbithead :D
This post caught my eye. I know that feeling........... I've been there many times myself in the past. Loneliness is an oppressive tool of the devil. He will use it to steal your joy. He will lie to you and cause you to believe that nobody pays attention to you or even loves you. Satan uses loneliness to get our eyes off of God's plan for us and make us feel helpless and useless. God is with you wherever you go. Your steps are ordered by the Lord.


Psalm 34:7 (KJV) 7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
Psalm 121:1-8 (KJV) 1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. 2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. 3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. 4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. 5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. 6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. 7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. 8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Enjoy His presence. Run to Him. Come boldly before the throne of grace. The Lord is there waiting for you. Take advantage of your access to Him. He loves for His people to depend on Him.
Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
Psalm 30:5

1) Why is being a klutz in a movie "so cute" or "funny" but in real life when I knock stuff over, break stuff, trip, run into things...it's just awkward and embarrassing and sometimes painful? Nothing is real in a movie, I suppose.

2) I got to talk with an older Christian woman today. She leads one of the Bible studies I go to, and her daughter (whom I know and is a little older than me) told me, before she left for college, that her mom has a soft spot in her heart for me. I'm not sure why. Today, though, I got the opportunity to tell her part of my story, and we just talked, and it was great. I think she'd be a great mentor for me. Sometimes I feel antsy or useless here in Illinois, BUT I know this is where I need to be for the time being. Healing is happening and that is not something I want to interrupt just because I'm antsy at times.

Thanks, Stephen. :) For me, Psalms is a book I can really relate with. The feeling of loneliness can be such an awful thing. Satan definitely uses it to his advantage at times. I hate it.

I guess I got some emotion checking and praying to do, not necessarily in that order.

Truth.

...well, except for the times when I glance at a digital clock, and it says 3:59, and I think, "Yikes, it's gonna be 4:00 in a minute", and I don't MEAN literally a minute when I think it, I just mean, "Wow, it's already 4:00?!"

And then I'm all, "Well, duh".

My brain is a special place.

I feel even weirder than...normal...tonight. I should have gone to sleep two hours ago, and didn't, and since then, there have been vultures and friends from more painful days, and cake, and bleeding cats. The vultures were not the cause of the bleeding cats, however. At least, I'm mostly certain they weren't.

Things learned tonight:
Vultures, in the morning, sit and spread their wings wide in order to dry the dew off.
Even injured kitties appreciate the value of tuna fish
Cake doesn't survive being dropped very well
