Light rain this afternoon--balmy weather. I slept a lot last night--and into today. Just being quiet and still--eating, sleeping, waiting (for what?). Babe is doing good--he's starting to gain weight on a daily basis and is eating and eliminating as expected. The parents were told they didn't have to make a return visit until the end of the month. Lots of visitors arriving--dad has many relatives in the area so they are expecting steady flow for a while.

I thought about going to SS dance today--but my spirit wasn't into the idea. Will wait and go to Tuesday/Wednesday classes--and see then if this break period, over the weekend, brings back any movement and motion. It has been restful to just do nothing--to rest and sleep.

I mentioned that I had to give right away to a flock of turkeys on Friday--today there was a dead duck on the side of the road. Guess he didn't waddle fast enough--there's a flock of ducks in that area (minus one). Do turkeys and ducks have the right away--is that in the vehicle code somewhere?

I'm coming to the end of House of Cards--and it's getting more and more grimy. It's an interesting film--set up against this year's political activities. It's covering some of the same ground as reality--which makes it compelling but hard to stomach. Portraying the President and First Lady as craven opportunists--and as deadly evil, makes for finding out how it comes to an end compelling.

Onward to the conclusion of House of Cards--know when to fold 'em!
