ONE Aussie Cattle Dog is a Handful...a Handful of Aussie Cattle Dogs is an Apocalypse!
I can only imagine...6 Tippys! EEK!
Moose will go out in the backyard to do his potty breaks. He would probably want to go for a walk but I know his paws would get too cold. I walked to get the mail by myself. It’s 1/4 mile from the house. I had to wear double everything. Still had to shield my eyes with my mittens to keep the wind from freezing my eyeballs. 😳🥶
That is waaaaaay too cold! 👁👁❄️
I can’t wait until spring!

Bible in a Year:
Remember the Lord your God.
On January 15, 1919, a huge molasses tank burst in Boston. A fifteen-foot wave of more than two million gallons of molasses careened through the street at over 30 mph, sweeping away railcars, buildings, people, and animals. Molasses might seem harmless enough, but that day it was deadly: 21 people lost their lives with more than 150 injured.
Sometimes even good things—like molasses—can overwhelm us unexpectedly. Before the Israelites entered the land God promised them, Moses warned the people to be careful not to take credit for the good things they’d receive: “When you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down, and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase . . . , then your heart will become proud and you will forget the Lord your God.” They weren’t to attribute this wealth to their own strength or capabilities. Instead, Moses said, “Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth” (Deuteronomy 8:12–14, 17–18).
All good things—including physical health and the skills needed to earn a living—are blessings from the hand of our loving God. Even when we’ve worked hard, it’s He who sustains us. Oh, to hold our blessings with open hands, that we may gratefully praise God for His kindness to us!
Good Afternoon!
We have zero degrees at noon. Oh boy. Needless to say, I am skipping my Tuesday horse date. 😅
The sunshine is lovely with these arctic high pressure systems.
That’s called making lemonade out of lemons. 🙃
Have a great Tuesday!

Enjoy that sunshine! You don’t get much of it during your long winters. I’ll bet horsey will miss you and your carrots.
Stay Warm!

“Some of those people on Free Republic have got to be kidding.”
Horsie will miss the carrots, for sure.
Bundled up for my walk to the mailbox. Was not too bad, but have to cover up with a scarf to breathe and prevent the dreaded eyeball freeze. 🤣
Glad to be home and warm, bad weather until Thursday. We were warm til beginning of Jan, then the late winter moved in.
Stay safe and warm! I guess we’re having our “second winter” in Texas, too! brrr!
LOL!
You got the worst of it, all dr appt was canceled, and we have ice and cold, but that means down powerlines, and car crashes, in 1 inch of snow. Memphis is not equipped for winter this ‘bad’.
I’ve been trying my hand at writing. FOODGATE, the food plants destroyed, eggs, chickens, and baby formula. https://gailhonadle.substack.com/p/food-gate-control-the-food-you-control
Bible in a Year:
Blessed are those who mourn.
I received an email from a young man in England, a son who explained that his father (only sixty-three) was in the hospital in critical condition, hanging on to life. Though we’d never met, his dad’s work and mine shared many intersections. The son, trying to cheer his father, asked me to send a video message of encouragement and prayer. Deeply moved, I recorded a short message and a prayer for healing. I was told that his dad watched the video and gave a hearty thumbs-up. Sadly, a couple days later, I received another email telling me that he had died. He held his wife’s hand as he took his final breath.
My heart broke. Such love, such devastation. The family lost a husband and father far too soon. Yet it’s surprising to hear Jesus insist that it’s precisely these grieving ones who are blessed: “Blessed are those who mourn,” Jesus says (Matthew 5:4). Jesus isn’t saying suffering and sorrow are good, but rather that God’s mercy and kindness pour over those who need it most. Those overcome by grief due to death or even their own sinfulness are most in need of God’s attention and consolation—and Jesus promises us “they will be comforted” (v. 4).
God steps toward us, His loved children (v. 9). He blesses us in our tears.
PRAYER WARRIORS NEED PRAYER FOR THE ELDEST SON. He is a 54-year-old type 2 Diabetic, unjabbed, but with 2 bad bouts of China Flu.
Eldest message: Went to the cardiologist yesterday and wasn’t good heart only pumping at 25%. They are going to do a heart catheterization. I don’t have the date yet.
Sutherland is a #1 clinic, but the hospital they use METHODIST doesn’t take Blue Cross anymore, So Stern Cardiology is seeing him tomorrow. (CANCELLED BY WEATHER).
Stents and Statins are crap and dangerous.
Thanks, I can’t handle losing a third child.
