Birds and other Ponderings


It's a quiet Sunday Morning as usual. I'm up a little earlier then I wanted to be because the husband was starting to snore a little to loud for me to continue to sleep peacefully.
Anyway nothing exciting has been happening around here.

Here are a few bird updates:
Mama Phoebe Bird has hatched her nest. I have not looked to see how many but I know there is at least one. I'm trying not to disturb her to much, she could become an attack bird if she feels that I'm threatening her nest.
A number of the Robin nests have already hatched out and the babies flown away. At least one is on her second batch of babies.
Our baby chicks are doing very well. The husband even got a few more the other day. Now when he has time he has to make a pen for them to go outside. Right now he is starting to bale hay now that the weather if finally warming up and hopefully it will not rain for a few days till he can get some off and sell it to people who are waiting for it.

Here are few things I've been pondering about this week:

North Korea I think wants to start a nuclear war. Someone must have a real itchy finger that wants to press a button to see what happens. Maybe they think it's a game. There are enough problems in the world just the way things are without adding nuclear fall out to the list.

Iran, I knew the results would be the way they turned out. The people of Iran would like to be able to have more freedom and to be able to have conversations with other countries in a way that everyone will understand each other and respect each other. We can all get along and share the things each has to offer without feeling used or controlled by anyone else.
But their religious leaders are the ones who are really in charge no matter how they tell everyone they have a chose, they don't.

Thought of the Day:
"Unsought advice is a waste of breath."

Jean Viken Cold Case

When I first started this blog one of the first things I wrote about was the murder of a local woman. She disappeared Jan 29th 2008 on one of the coldest days of that month. Her body was found I think in May of that year. She had been shot. Her van was found not long after she went missing up north. She was the mother of 4 young children and was going through a divorce at the time. Well here it is 2 years later and nothing has happened to try and find the person or persons responsible for her death. Why? I'm sure the whoever was responsible was really not that smart. It's as if the no one wants to get to the bottom of what really happened to her. Maybe she was not important enough. Maybe she was not connected to the right people.  I wonder what it would take to get more exposure to this cold case. If there was more pressure from some place else maybe the ones responsible would start to panic and make mistakes to expose the truth. It's time the truth was exposed. Remembe

Jean Viken update and other local things.

This past week Channel 7 has been doing stories on the cold case of Jean Viken.I did see one of them. In it the police said they know who did it but they are waiting for someone to come forward. But no matter what four young children will be without their mother for the rest of their lives because someone decided to end her life out of the meanness of their heart. Here is the story I found on the internet: Jean Viken's friends and family remember her as a loving mother of four young kids, a devoted daughter and sister. But nearly four years after her murder, a dark cloud hangs over Jean's memory, as they continue to search for answers. "We were having a birthday party for her because all of her friends would have wanted to get together like we would have done if she was here," Jane Hempel said. Almost five months after Jane Hempel reported her sister Jean Viken missing, family and friends gathered to celebrate her birthday, hoping to feel some semblance o

Pondering Japan's Earthquake

The earthquake in Japan is just another wake up call for us. It is so far the largest disaster we are dealing with right now. And with all those nuclear power plants having problems there, it will get a whole lot worse.  The earth is talking to us. Telling us the big change is upon us. Instead of fighting wars in other countries we should be preparing our people for this big change that will change our home, planet Earth, in a way that will make life allot more difficult to survive.  Japan had prepared for this kind of event to a point, but this kind of event to this degree is never fool proof.  My heart does go out to all those who are living through this right now.  I will give one prediction for the near future that some might say makes me sound like a crack pot but it is always a possibility.  Here it is: With all the things happening right now natural disasters and political unrest big changes are inevitable. Governments will fall apart, America included. People will have to rel
