America’s head-on course toward self-destruction

Same song, second verse: Read the articles in Natural News!!

Mike Adams presents a view of the future in this article titled No matter who wins, today’s election outcome can’t stop America’s head-on course toward self-destruction .

Flag, Bible and Cross

If my people, which are called by my name,

shall humble themselves, and pray,

and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways;

then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin,

and will heal their land.

 

For your information…

November 2004…I left Lancaster, California, exactly ten years ago.

The moving van had already departed for Ohio. I stayed to vote… and then began my feverish drive to Brookville, Ohio. I say “feverish” because the truck driver drove a lot faster than this proverbial “little old lady from Pasadena Lancaster.”

Completely unexpected…

…and don’t know why…!! Perhaps, subconsciously, I was responding to comments I’ve heard about others getting out their winter wardrobe. This morning I hoisted the foot of the bed and pulled out containers of winter clothes. While I had it open, I removed the Nikken mattress topper, electric mattress pad, Nikken comforter, etc., etc. Off came the bedding (and the awesome better than a sleeping bag) and, one-by-one, I added the items. I’ve slept on the Nikken mattress topper for over a decade (except this last year). Magnets make the difference (!!) and I really need to get back to restful sleep. (I’m awake for hours each night!!) ~~ I didn’t unpack the winter clothes until late afternoon and tried to fit them into the recently created over-the-bed storage. Winter(s) may be so mild here in Texas, I may not need the big variety. I’ll begin to “weed out” and downsize. ~~ It’s 7:30 PM and I wish I had television so I could watch election results. Perhaps I can find some news on the computer and Internet??

Winter clothingPostscript, Nov. 5, 2014: Correction: The bulky mattress topper was removed recently from my mini-storage unit (down the highway). I took it to the recent camp-out in case one person needed to sleep on the floor. I also took a sleeping bag.

Serendipity: One of my roommates gave me a “thank you” card. She wrote “How would we have made it without your [bottled] water; wasn’t it your [hand] soap? And your extra cleaning [I washed the dirty dishes]? You were a great bed fellow–no snoring, leg cramps, etc. Thanks for going. More hugs.” ~~ My response: It’s just my nature to “plan ahead,” etc. ~~ (Question: So why is it taking me so-o-o-o long to get settled–and organized–in my not-so-new home??)

Nikken mattress pad & demolished trailer

Weather station

New weather stationIMG_1807Another impulse purchase: AcuRite weather station. I was increasingly suspect of the outside temperature on the clock (with brown wood frame). Without television weather reports, I feel lost… and will appreciate this new station that will provide humidity too. Yes, I can always check for weather on the computer!! But I like to see what’s happening in my own yard!! Old faithfulI’ve relied on the small clock for many years!! It traveled with me throughout the New England states, and Canada, in 2010.
