L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

As one who works for a program that serves children with special needs... to hear that someone was gleeful with a diagnosis of Asperger's means we have made some progress...

My very best to Bella and her family!

I'm glad your day is looking up. And as has been observed I think all the inhabitants (or as Scarlett calls us, inmates) of Blogville are suffering through a rough Spring emotionally and mentally.

How can anyone not be positive with those sunny yellow daffodils smiling up at you? They brightened my day instantly!

I'm glad that Bella has a diagnosis—and hope that her district works closely with an AEA that can provide any necessary therapies for her. I'm assuming that the plan is an IEP (Individual Education Plan), but she also needs a 504 Plan. This will ensure that the school district is held accountable for accommodating her special needs.

We got seven inches of snow yesterday, but it's quickly melting. I'm looking forward to a little lawn bowling and ladder ball. Yay spring!!! ~~

Beautiful flowers.

Getting a diagnosis early is always a good thing. It sounds like the school is on top of it.

I hope a Moose Bar is better than it sounds. Around here we have cow pies but they are not for eating.

Lovely daffodils.

I'm glad to hear the diagnosis is a good thing. Bella will get all the help she needs at school!

The daffodils are late arriving here due to the severe winter, so it's lovely to share yours. Such, beautiful, delicate flowers and worthy of lifting anyone's mood.

The book sounds interesting. I hope there'll be some specialist input for your sister's grandchild.

You mean they make snack bars out of your moose?

Fears bring out such strangeness and sadness. Few people I know live without some form of fear.

I can relate how FB is more immediate-and you now have quite a following there. Yes, you are loved, but I have faced being an orphan recently, and it is a lonely prospect, in a very hollow sort of a way.

Great picture!.

Sadness for your loss. An entry in contrasts. Pish-Pot misses you. In fact, since your visit, she has become much more of an 'inside' pampered kitty. She's 16. Piggies are now down to 9 (?). Carrots are cheaper as a result

No, there are no excuses, except for the ones that we make for ourselves. Some days, though, lifting our head up off of the pillow is a marathon effort.

Nice quote you started with, and of course she's right. Why are we all so afraid of each other? It's sad.

I don't remember that passage in Cider House Rules, but I'm sure it struck me at the time. I do think most of us want that and don't always realize that we are, even when we think we're not. Anyone who expresses him(her)self honestly and shares knowledge is being of use.

I'm honored by the mention. Thank you. Yes, a fan page with 27 fans when most of my writer friends have more like 500. *sigh* Is it worth the time? *shrug* It doesn't take much but seriously, I'm not sure it doesn't look worse to have a fan page with only 27 fans (and 1/3 of those family) than to have no page at all.

Happy Birthday to Iowegian Skye! I'm watching Erik's progress on Debi's FB.

Doesn't that photo make our SPD celebration look a bit ... uh ...

I can see native Irish laughing.

I'm so sorry for your loss, and theirs. (I'm a Peoria area native, btw.)

I'm sorry to learn of your loss...There's been far too much heartache this winter. Here's hoping spring will bring some hope and happiness along with the sunshine...which does help, but doesn't eliminate depression. I read an article that says folic acid is a mood booster...I'm going to give it a try.

Never doubt your value to others. I feel incredibly blessed to know you.

Love the parade picture! And I think that Gretchen from NH's statement is right on!

1. Psalm 109:8 and Exodus 22:18	ID #677035
Posted: 11-20-2009 @ 6:38 pm EST Edited: 11-21-2009 @ 12:40 pm EST feature coming soon!

NaNoWriMo

"Blood of the Garlic" : 22k from 33 pieces entered on-line with approximately 33k (56 pieces) written so far. I used the controversy over Psalm 109:8 and Special Kay 's suggestion about a vamp named Clovia (I made her a barber) to prompt me to write my latest: "Exodus 22:18".

To quote the KJV of the Bible:

Exodus 22:18

Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

I chose the Exodus quote for my story as those that would burn witches would also slay vampires. Same mind set. Using Psalm 109:8 would bring in politics and the furor over its present use (I don't want to interject politics into my stories).

Psalm 109:8-12

8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.
11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.
12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.

And what controversy would that engender?
My Opinion Only

So, I made a POLL:

Psalm 109:8 T-shirt Controversy Poll
Psalm 109:8

8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.

12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.

Note: This is the King James Version. Pick whichever version you prefer.

There have been T-shirts printed with the message: Pray for Obama: Psalms 109:8.

What does this mean? (link to my blog entry: "Psalm 109:8 and Exodus 22:18" )

What does this mean to YOU?

Obama as a president needs our prayers.
Obama should be replaced as soon as possible.
This is a prayer FOR Obama.
This is a prayer AGAINST Obama.
It is a patriotic act calling for a return to sanity.
It is a terrorist act calling for his assasination.
I want to wear one myself.
I don't ever want to see one.
You Americans are crazy.

Thou:

Chewie Kittie has an entry that is a must read: "Ripples"

. Douger has reached 52k for this year's NaNo.

Me and Mine:

Went to Bernice's and Taco Sano and managed to write a bit. Even took a walk to the Rose Garden and back. Found a freeze dried red rose so I picked it.

I called a friend and he cheered me up as usual. I sometimes wish...

...and then I get depressed!

Better to be thankful for small blessings.
