Happy New Year Y'all

Happy New Year folks!

I don't make New Year's Resolutions but if y'all do, I hope that yours can be fulfilled.

2010 is the Year Of The Tiger in the Chinese calendar. Does that mean we'll have to keep hearing about Tiger Woods?! [latest Mistress count here] Geez. Don't ya feel like saying "enough already"? [grin] I know, I know ... it's news. But is anybody else as tired of hearing about his escapades as I am? I never watch televised golf but I know it's very popular but I guess not as popular as watching someone's life flush down the toilet. It's only natural to want to gawk. But it's such a tragedy all around for his family. I feel especially sorry for his kids. They're gonna have to live with how skuzzy their dad was for the rest of their lives. Sad. Children always suffer for the sins of the father (or mother), don't they?!

I predict that 2010 is going to be another busy year, both personally and also politically.

The much anticipated Federal Census will be coming around in April. Here in the country, ours has always arrived through the mail. I'll have my list of questions for the Obamanation ready. [wink] We'll see how this pans out.

Congressional elections are in 2010. Hopefully, this year we'll replace *ALL* of the House. Top to bottom. I do pray that there will be a resurgence of citizens wanting to turn back to the Constitution. The Republicans have been weak kneed and the Demoncrats have been ... well, evil. Time to move on with new leadership, don't you think?

First planned vacation on our agenda is the much anticipated International Motorcycle Show in Greenville, SC. WE ARE SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS (can you tell??). We both live, eat, breathe motorcycles. Pictures and much whining for a new model to follow. [giggle]

Next we're planning a nice long journey to south Texas in February. The main reason for the trip is to go migratory birdwatching at Padre Island National Seashore. We LOVE to bird watch! While there, we will be visiting with what have become some of our most treasured friends the Price's. Even though we've only known one another for a little while, it's seems like we've been freinds for years. [Pappy's Place] [Carey's Corner] They are such warm hearted, right thinking, fun loving people! We're really excited about this trip.

After that, the rest of the year is up for grabs. I would still like to travel to Maine soon to visit with another one of our new friends Kirk Rogers. We met Kirk on a bird watching expedition one winter in Savannah. He takes the most spectacular photos! That's one of his photos at the top of my blog which was taken from my front porch. Pretty, isn't it? But a trip to the nether regions will have to wait until warmer weather. I'm told they only have two seasons in New England: Winter and June, so, maybe we'll go in June!

Oh, and I may take a brief sabbatical from blogging. We'll see how the news progresses. I just need to recharge my battery's with a little down time.

So, what's on y'alls plates this year? Any interesting trips or special events?

Well, I'm sending prayers that only good things happen to all my blogging buddies. Keep the faith and stay vigilant!

Senator Baucus Drunk On Senate Floor

Even though I've been incommunicado through Christmas, I heard about the Senate passing the ObamaSnare back to the House. I didn't cry. I'm not going to give the evil that satisfaction. I hope every last one of these people crash and burn. Next election, We The People who care about the country and personal freedom, must clean House ... and the Senate too, for that matter.

Watch this video of Sen. Buttkiss (D-Montana) The Womanizer DRUNK on the Senate floor!! Baucus couldn't have passed a breathalyzer test for sure. Montana, you're better than this. You have a lovely State with decent citizens living there. Please fire the jerk next election!


(H/T Pappy's Place)

This has nothing to do with "health care" and everything to do with a power grab. It is so outrageous!

The state of our country reminds me of the Holy Scripture:

"But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation." King James Bible (Deuteronomy 32:15)

"The Rock", of course, is Jesus Christ our Lord. We stopped teaching His word to young ones and now they have no foundation to hold onto. We've allowed technology to replace faith in the one true living God.

Well, I just hope it's not too late to save the country. It's probably not the end of times but it most certainly will be the end of us as a nation if something doesn't CHANGE. I worry about my 5 year old niece and what her life will be like. May God have mercy on us for being lax in teaching His Word.

Stay Vigilant Dear Ones!

The Story of the Christ Child

The Story of the Christ Child and Christmas

When Rome was a great Empire ruled by Caesar Augustus and Israel was governed by King Herod, in the village of Nazareth lived Joseph and Mary. Joseph was a carpenter and Mary was a young virgin who would become his wife. Mary told Joseph of a dream in which she was visited by an angel who told her she had been chosen to bear the Son of God and his name was to be Jesus ... [read more here]

**************

I pray that all within the sound of my blog will decide wholeheartedly to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Saviour. It is only through His innocent shed blood that covers our sins and saves us eternally from the wrath to come ... nothing else. Choose salvation before it is too late my friend! The time is now because that all we have is 'now'. This very second, this very breath. The next breath may not come. Yesterday is a memory and Tomorrow doesn't exist yet. For some people Tomorrow may never get here. Death is always stalking our mortal being. Most of us never know when we'll die. To Him, our life and our soul is precious. Please accept Him now and live with us in Heaven, forgiven, forever. Remember, you are loved and wanted. Nobody will be turned away who wants to believe.

To believe in Him, these are the following truths:
* That Jesus Christ was born of a virgin birth. He is Son of God and Son of man (less the sin) ...
* That this same Jesus who is without sin died for OUR sins on the cross and rose again on the 3rd day ...
* That Christ now sits by the right hand of God the Father making intercession for us ...
* That we are "Saved by grace, not by works" ...

All these truths will bring true peace, a contentment and a happiness that nothing worldly could ever give.

A believer can never lose one's salvation. Never. We can not EARN our salvation nor can we LOSE it and no person or organization can take it from us! My experience has been that life is frought with imperfection. In fact, life is down-right messy and many times depressing and scary. He offers salvation to all mankind through the shed blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. GOD the Father loves us, no matter what has been done in the past. Give your heart to Him and spend eternity with Him in Heaven. All He wants from all of us is Love. That's His promise and God NEVER lies.

So dear reader, trust in Him, the one true right God, Jesus Christ our Saviour. Salvation can be yours today and no one can take it from you. And always remember to do the right thing, because good does prevail. God can fix all manner of problems in our lives if we just give Him a chance. He loves you right now.

Remember, Wise Men still seek Him. :)

Have a blessed and safe holiday season dear ones!

Better Get Your Ducks In A Row

Sad news. This morning I received a message from "Georgia Conservatives in Action" at FaceBook.

Subject: Health Care Bill Clears Crucial procedural Vote in Senate, 60 to 40

Health-care bill clears crucial procedural vote in Senate, 60 to 40.

The Senate cleared a crucial procedural hurdle to bring its health-care bill to the brink of final passage by Christmas Eve. The partisan vote of 60 to 40 shut down a Republican filibuster of the $871 billion package and followed days of tough negotiations with Democratic holdouts.

The Senate voted to shut down the debate. Next, they vote on the bill itself. We're slowly being sold down the river by the very people who should be representing us. The morally bankrupt are leading the way to more tyranny.

So those of us who believe in freedom and don't wish to live under Communism with the soulless empty suit President Zero, need to get our ducks in a row this Christmas. Visit with loved ones. Stock pile what's needed. Get ready to go to battle. It's getting closer and, like a freight train with no one at the controls, I can't see any way to stop it.

May God have mercy and bless our endeavors to protect our Republic.

Hurry! While Supplies Last.

"Avatar" Just Another Anti-American Movie

Avatar
Another 'save your money and buy a DVD' moment. Apparently, the new Avatar movie is not worth blowing one's hard earned American money on.

(Avatar is) over-hyped (un)believable tripe that spews political messages that 70% of America doesn't believe in.

[--]

... Debbie Schlussel, (hattip Saberpoint), thinks that "Avatar" stinks to high heaven. Long, boring, unoriginal. And oh-yah uber-left too.

[--]

Smurf-like natives made to look like overgrown American Indians, complete with warpaint, mohawks, and long ponytails (that have computer-like USB cable tendrils in them, which can communicate with nature–ludicrous). Does that sound like earth-shattering stuff to you? They looked like Jar Jar Binks with arrowheads.

So, my advice is don't waste your money or your brain on more Hollywood sewage. Stay home and watch a nice old movie or a REAL nature show. You'll be richer in spirit and in the pocket. $$
