Thomas Merton, Poet
SONG FOR NOBODY
A yellow flower
(Light and spirit)
Sings by itself
For nobody.
A golden spirit
(Light and emptiness)
Sings without a word
By itself.
Let no one touch this gentle sun
In whose dark eye
Someone is awake.
(No light, no gold, no name, no color
and no thought:
O, wide awake!)
A golden heaven
Sings by itself
A song to nobody.
Sniggle-fritz is our Elf. More specifically he is my children’s Elf. He has a simple job. During the day he sits on a shelf and watches the kids. Each night he magically comes to life and flies back to the North Pole to tell Santa who has been naughty and who has been nice. When my children awake in the morning they are surprised to find that Sniggle-fritz is resting in a different spot after his trip to see Santa. Each morning they race down stairs to see where Sniggle-fritz will be this time.
Everything was going well for a while, and then I noticed some strange things were starting to happen. In the morning we would find broken ornaments on the floor by the Christmas tree, almost like they had been thrown off. One day all of the candy had been picked off of the gingerbread house. Another day I had found three empty bags of Christmas cookies on the couch, crumbs everywhere. Then, things got really bad. My new bottle of 18 year old Scotch tasted like it had been watered down, quite a bit I might add. A bottle of champagne that we were saving for New Years Eve was missing. One night I woke up and could swear that I smelt cigarette smoke coming from downstairs.
Today when I got up I noticed that my wallet was open on the counter. It didn’t take me long to realize that all of my cash and credit cards were gone. Sniggle-fritz was nowhere to be found. My kids were sad at his strange disappearance. I was more than a little suspicious. Looking out the front window I saw that my car was resting in the middle of the front yard with one flat tire and a big dent in the fender. A couple of the neighbors were standing around gawking as I walked out to examine the damage. I opened the door to be greeted by the stench of stale beer. Sure enough, there had to be at least thirty five empty beer cans strewn about and a some crumpled up wrappers from an all night taco shop.
Fearing the worse, I went in and called my credit card company. That damned Sniggle-fritz and his buddies blew two thousand dollars at a strip club on lap dances and cheap booze. Now I know what Santa really means when he says “Ho! Ho! Ho!” “Take me to the strip club!“ I guess he likes the naughty ones after all. There is no way that the credit card company is going to believe me. That Elf is not welcome back here next Christmas, I don‘t care how much my kids cry for him

On September 3, 2009 Hendrix had hip surgery for Legg-Perthes disease, it's a hip disease. During the 2 hour surgery 3 cuts were made in his pelvis and the femoral head was placed correctly and 2 screws inserted to hold it there. While under Hendrix was put into a spica cast that wraps around his torso and down the affected leg. He will be in this cast for at least 6 weeks, not easy on a 6 year old.
For more info on the surgery and Legg-perthes Disease, check out this website:

I captured this image while on the atlantic ocean. I have had several moments in my life of profound gratitude...this was one of them.
I'd like to believe that those are dolphins to the left of the wake but they're more likely birds. This water would be kind of c-c-c-cold for dolphins, I think.
Lots of ferry pictures here I know but it's only our third ferry ride ever so it's still kind of fresh.
1. Burlington, VT - Port Kent, NY across Lake Champlain
2. Whidbey Island, Wa - Port Townsend, Wa.
3. This one.
Seems like there must be more (and there would be one more on this trip), I can't remember them.
"STAY AWAKE, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming..." ~ from Matthew 24:42
“Therefore, STAY AWAKE, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into. Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect." ~ Matthew 24:42-44
MEDITATION
“…The Lord's warning of judgment causes dismay for those who are unprepared, but it brings Joyful Hope to those who Eagerly wait for HIS return in glory. God's judgment is good news for those who are ready to meet HIM. Their reward is God HIMSELF, the source of all Truth, Beauty, Goodness, Love and Everlasting Life.”
PRAYER
"Lord Jesus Christ, You are my Hope and Salvation. Help me to never lose sight of the Goal of Heaven and give me fresh Joy and Zeal to live each day for Your kingdom." ~ www.dailyscripture.net
