Well, sadly, I have today off.

One of my clients that I just adore was admitted into the hospital yesterday and I’m usually with her on Sunday afternoons.

I was really at a loss as to how to pray for her this morning, gang. Without betraying her confidences in me, I’ll just say that for the last couple of weeks, she has been expressing to me in private that, for the most part, she did not want to continue living.

She suffers from something that there is no cure for, and it only continues to get worse. What quality of life she has left is based strictly on the fact that her husband keeps her at home and is her full-time caregiver.

Even though they have a great (and long) marriage — and so many wonderful memories fill their home — that full-time caregiver thing is still extremely stressful on any marriage. And so she also feels guilty about that, too — what her husband has to go through, 24/7.

That said — I could not bring myself to simply pray for her to “be back home as soon as possible”. Or ask God to restore her — health? She barely has it, you know? It was a tricky morning of prayer for me.

I want to see her again! I love spending time with her and her husband. I really, really enjoy being with them, regardless of the tasks involved while I’m there in their home. I don’t want her to die.

Yet, I know for certain, she is, at best, ‘conflicted’ about wanting to remain here.

The bottom line, for now, is that I have an additional day off today. And I guess we all know that I will spend it working on the TV project.

I did see this on Instagram this morning and it cheered me — and I researched it a little bit, because I thought it was so cool.

When Wayne & I took our honeymoon back in 1993, we rented a car and drove out West to Nevada and back. And when we weren’t staying with various family members along the way (Wayne was originally from the South), our goal was to stay at motels that had really cool, retro neon signs.

For our honeymoon, $25 a night was on the expensive side!! We had such a blast. Back then, at least, there were still so many old motels operating across the country.

Here are 2 random examples from my honeymoon scrapbook — both motels were on Rt. 66, in Tucumcari, New Mexico. We stayed one night in each motel.

So, when I saw this on Instagram this morning, I immediately texted it to Wayne and he texted back, saying: “Somehow, I’ll sleep better knowing this. Thanks.”

Built in 1937, the lunch counter and gas station are gone, but motorists can still sleep in a wigwam in Cave City, Kentucky!

You can visit their website here and see old & current photos of the place.

I researched a possible road trip, but it’s over 5 hours a way from here, and looks like it’s more of a place for families. I would be really out of place there all by myself. And, you know, driving alone for over 5 hours is not my idea of a fun “road trip”.

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

That aside, I’m trying to stay in a good head space today. I should feel excited because I have two days off this week — possibly three. Oh well.

On we go.

I hope you have a great Sunday, wherever you are in the world, gang.

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!

In keeping with the above theme —

Here’s a song I’d forgotten about until last night!! Wayne & I certainly played this CD a lot while on our honeymoon road trip!

The fantastic Marty Stuart. From his hugely popular Country album, “Hillbilly Rock,” 1989 — the title song!! Enjoy, gang!!

Hillbilly Rock

It comes from Mississippi, and down in Alabam’
Creepin’ like a fever all across the land
From deep in the Delta on the Louisiana shore
The people got to have it, they wanna hear some more

It’s the hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum
Playin’ them guitars like shootin’ from a gun
Keepin’ up the rhythm, steady as a clock
Doin’ a little thing called the hillbilly rock

Some say it came from Memphis down in Tennessee
Or it drifted in from Georgia about 1953
Just as long as it’s greasy, as long as it’s fast
As long as it’s pumpin’ honey, it’s gonna last

It’s the hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum
Playin’ them guitars like shootin’ from a gun
Keepin’ up the rhythm, steady as a clock
Doin’ a little thing called the hillbilly rock

Way back in old Kentucky where the bluegrass grows
Through the Carolinas on them dirt red roads
Burnin’ like a fire runnin’ wild in the woods
From Arkansas to Texas, it sounds so good

It’s the hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum
Playin’ them guitars like shootin’ from a gun
Keepin’ up the rhythm, steady as a clock
Doin’ a little thing called the hillbilly rock

So when the heat starts to risin’ and you gotta blow some steam
Take a ride down the river, you’ll see just what I mean
The juke joint’s jumpin’, when that cat goes on
The whole place is shakin’, there’s a something goin’ on

It’s the hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum
Playin’ them guitars like shootin’ from a gun
Keepin’ up the rhythm, steady as a clock
Doin’ a little thing called the hillbilly rock
Doin’ a little thing called the hillbilly rock
Doin’ a little thing called the hillbilly rock

You may recall that several weeks ago, my nieghbors surprised me by leaving two assembled cat houses, complete with straw inside, on my kitchen porch.

The stray cats — along with KonTiki of the Great Outdoors, a Maine Coon cat who adopted me 4 years ago and who refuses to stay inside — have made constant use of the little houses. Which has been such a relief to me because of the brutally cold weather we’ve had at night, along with snow.

Well, yesterday afternoon, when I got home from my shift, a different neighbor had dropped off two more cat houses, complete with straw, on my kitchen porch.

This type of kindness is just incredible, gang. Not just because it helps me out financially (I can’t afford to buy all these cat houses, let alone find time to assemble them and also buy a bale of straw), but also the fact that my neighbors care so much about animals, too.

It means so much to me, since I usually feel like a complete lunatic with all these cats on my kitchen porch. And I always wonder what the heck my neighbors are thinking…

Anyway. How beautiful.

Phil is supposed to do a livestream tonight, beginning at 8PM Eastern time.

I hope he doesn’t have to cancel again, because it has been ages since we got an update — especially since he is supposed to be talking about NESARA.

Check here to confirm and to see the listing for his upcoming livestreams this week.

The other day, when I was listening to Dan Bongino, one of his sponsors was Zippix Toothpicks. The toothpicks are infused with either B12 + caffeine, or with nicotine.

With all the amazing research coming out on the benefits of nicotine on the brain (pure nicotine, not cigarettes), I thought it would be interesting to try the toothpicks and see what kind of results I might get!

“Current research is revealing the distinct health benefits of the nutrient nicotine (as found in food and also in nicotine patches). And now we know that nicotine is an incredibly safe compound, and it was NEVER addictive. Don’t believe me? The FDA still allows the tobacco industry to add 599 different man-made chemicals to the nicotine in tobacco products, causing the known damage from cigarettes and other tobacco products. It is not the nicotine that causes harm.” [article here]

“Cognitive enhancement: Nicotine has been well-documented for its ability to enhance cognitive function and overall performance.  Research published in 2001 highlighted the fact that transdermal nicotine administration in the form of “patches” treated certain cognitive impairments associated with Alzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia, as well as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).  Studies conducted on animal models have shown that nicotine significantly boosts working memory with chronic exposure.” [article here]

I am very interested to see what brain benefits nicotine toothpicks might yield for me. I will keep you posted!!

Meanwhile–

We are getting SO CLOSE to completing the TV pilot script. We are really, really getting there. It’s kind of amazing. It should be finished in a couple of days.

It took us one full year to write the script for a 10-minute art film (“Lita måste gå” — aka: “Lita’s Got to Go!”). Literally, an 18-page script and it took us one year. And now we’ve blasted through a 60-page pilot script in a handful of weeks. Even though we began writing the script in early 2024, we’ve re-written almost all of that, except for the opening scenes.

So this is kind of amazing. Exhausting, but amazing. It’s almost done.

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

That’s it for now, gang. I gotta get back at it before my afternoon shift.

Have a great Sunday, wherever you are in the world!

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!

Yes! I really do listen to this stuff!!

Just try it yourself and see how incredible it is: driving alone, out in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by towering trees, endless sky and the foothills of Appalachia on all sides! With or without the snow…

Yesterday’s driving-home music! I’m guessing it needs no introduction. Enjoy, gang!

They have finally stopped giving me double shifts! I checked my schedule for the month of February, and between today and the end of February — I have NO double shifts!!

Yay. (I sent my coordinator an email on Saturday morning, re-stating, once again, that I didn’t want to do any more doubles. That I was exhausted.)

Plus, they announced recently that we’re all getting raises by the end of this month — so I shouldn’t notice the lack of doubles on my paycheck.

Another yay.

I can’t tell you what a relief this is. When I was first hired, I only wanted 20-25 hours a week. And for the last 5 months, I’ve had 27-30 hours a week. And that’s not counting all the hours and hours and hours of driving.

So, now, I should be able to get more writing done. I can’t tell you what this means to my sanity.

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

If you’ve been reading the blog everyday, you’ve likely noticed that Peitor and I are behind the deadline to complete the first draft of the pilot script. But we’re getting there.

This means, though, that we are going to have a TON of work on the rest of the materials that need to be ready with the pilot by March 18th.

So, no end in sight. Which is why it is such a relief to get my hours cut back, finally.

And in March, Sandra and I, et al, start back to work on the staged reading of our play, “The Guide to Being Fabulous”, Off-Broadway.

Starting to get my life back, gang. After 5 years.

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

Regarding the rest of the world–

I am very, very excited about the Executive Order to start releasing the information about the assassinations of JFK, RFK, and MLK.

The info on JFK is supposed to be released in 15 DAYS. I’m hoping that they will find a way to bring JFK, Jr. back into the public eye around that time, too. We’ll see.

From il donaldo trumpo yesterday:

[And nary a hint of popcorn anywhere…]

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

Okay. That’s it for now.

Enjoy your Friday, wherever you are in the world.

Thanks for visiting!!

I love you guys. See ya!

Believe it or not, this song (assuming the producers will license even part of it) has a spectacular feature toward the end of the pilot episode.

It will be so fucking perfect — I hope that it pans out.

Last night, I was playing this song over and over, just picturing the scene in my head, and just LOVING it!! (Our show is a dramedy, btw.) And using this particular song, and the specific characters involved in this scene (from Finland), were essentially some of my primary contributions to the story.

So while listening to the song, I imagine, in my head, that if the show becomes a hit, how happy these as- yet-unknown actors in Finland are going to be to get such “out there” and FANTASTIC roles!!! Yay!!

Okay.

From 1977, from Saturday Night Fever, the Bee Gees’ iconic, “Stayin’ Alive”. Enjoy, gang!!!!

It is currently -8 degrees Fahrenheit here in the Hinterlands, and this fine gentleman has offered to drive me to town and back to get the groceries!!!

Yay!

But seriously, gang, between the weather here (my upstairs toilet is frozen, but so far the hot water pipes are working in the shower & sink because I have a milk house heater going full blast, nonstop, in that bathroom. It’s like a sauna upstairs.)

Anyway, between protecting my house from the weather here, and the cold and snow in NYC — it’s a really great thing I postponed my trip. (Even though I keep thinking wistfully to myself: I would have been in Manhattan right now…)

But at least, here, it is not snowing today and the sun is out. And I have to go to town to get the groceries, so it could be a whole lot worse.

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

Yes, I’m on vacation from the caregiver job until Friday evening at 6PM.

And — YES! — they keep texting me, asking me if I’d like to pick up a shift….

Not sure what “I’m on vacation” means in their vocabulary.

However.

My non-NYC “vacation” now involves nonstop work on the TV pilot, so I’m actually kind of exhausted. No joke.

But I am enjoying the heck out of this new life — wherein I no longer gather the news and post it to my blog.

Now, I just watch and listen and read the various alt news stuff and I am digging the heck out of what Trump is doing!! It is actually kind of blowing my mind sometimes.

But now I can just sort of enjoy it, or be aghast by it, or astounded by it, without needing to make any notes about it.

I thought his press conference yesterday was sort of jaw-dropping. As much as I hate AI and MRNAs, it did sort of seem like MedBeds under a new name, didn’t it???

Okay. I gotta scoot to town now. And then when I get back here, 2 hours from now, this will be me:

And then it’s back to the TV pilot…

Have a great Wednesday, wherever you are in the world!!

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!

This will probably be the final morning of the Best of Cajun Country at breakfast, but I leave you with this today!!

Rod Bernard’s “Papa Thibodeaux” !! From 1968. You gotta like Cajun fiddles to like this one. We love them around here! Okay. Enjoy, gang!!

It is actually SUNNY here right now. And the temperatures are going up to about 40 degrees Fahrenheit!

And then rain very early tomorrow morning — all of which means the snow will be gone before the temperatures plummet to below zero this coming week.

This could likely be my only post until Monday, because I have to do back-to-back doubles this weekend. And interestingly enough — I really can’t find any news to post today.

The news just keeps getting better and better — and news that we would have normally considered “Q” stuff, or alternative news, is now all over the MSM pretty much every day.

It feels incredible.

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

The only thing that I thought was of interest was posted on Eyes On Christ last night — 2 TikTok videos and 1 ABC News footage video, made by private individuals in LA, claiming/showing there are no fires.

Click link and then scroll down.

Similarly, from President Trump yesterday:

“It is my honor to announce Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone, to be Special Ambassadors to a great but very troubled place, Hollywood, California. They will serve as Special Envoys to me for the purpose of bringing Hollywood, which has lost much business over the last four years to Foreign Countries, BACK—BIGGER, BETTER, AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE! These three very talented people will be my eyes and ears, and I will get done what they suggest. It will again be, like The United States of America itself, The Golden Age of Hollywood!”

[FYI: these 3 actors have been all over the alternative news during the last 4 years.]

I love Simcha Jacobovici as much as I love James Tabor! I’m so excited about his TV show, “The Naked Archeologist” returning soon.

Uncovering the First Cross: The Birth of a Christian Icon! (8 mins):

In other news–

Johnny Depp was in London the other night, sporting some great-looking teeth and looking fit and maybe even rested (?) at the Jeff Beck Guitar Auction event at Christie’s!

And honestly, gang, that is all I have for today. The news items that I find most interesting are all over the MSM now, so you can find them everywhere. Yay!

I don’t have to leave for my evening shift until 5:30pm, so I have the whole day to tackle the TV pilot.

And just in time for not only my schedule freeing up (after the Inauguration, that is), and my active involvement again with Peitor and our company, Abstract Absurdity Productions (based in the South of France), my Mondly Language App auto-renewed for another year yesterday! So I’m gonna have time now to keep tackling my French lessons. (This only makes 58 years (!!) of studying French!!!)

Meanwhile, enjoy your Friday, wherever you are in the world!

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!

Last night’s driving home music!!

The Pogues’ , “If I Should Fall From Grace With God.” From the album of the same name, 1988. Enjoy, gang!
