Next on the ballot is voting for the Judges. The ones on the ballot are all yes/no votes to retain in office or not. Since I haven't heard anything negative about any of them, I intend to do the usual and vote yes. If anyone has heard otherwise, I would like to know. MISSOURI SUPREME … Continue reading More of the Ballot: Judges
A Blast of the Past #67: Furniture and Corn Stalks
We also moved in some "heirloom" furniture, inherited back then. Furniture that is still continuing to give us good service today. It is a little more weighted down with use than it was when fresh moved in, though. There are also pictures of the corn (planting seen in previous post) coming up in the yard. … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #67: Furniture and Corn Stalks
Down the Ballot: Clay County Officials
I have lived in Clay county for 19 years and I still don't know what it means to be an Eastern or Western Commissioner. Do I vote for just one of the positions, or both? Is the country divided into two, and if so, which portion am I in? Overall, I think these county offices … Continue reading Down the Ballot: Clay County Officials
#134: I Know That My Redeemer Liveth
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 I know that my Redeemer liveth And on the earth again shall stand; I know eternal life He giveth, That grace and pow'r are in His hand. CHORUS I know, I know (I know I know), that … Continue reading #134: I Know That My Redeemer Liveth
Ballot Preview: final state offices
Well the final State Offices on the ballot are a little bit of a letdown for me. The 5th District in the U.S. Representative is a three-way race. I'd be interested in the Libertarian candidate, but I couldn't get him to respond to a message on his Facebook page. That leaves Emanuel Cleaver, our current … Continue reading Ballot Preview: final state offices
Fitness Update: Minutes tracking
Another week where the fitness activities are there, but not in an organized progression of the various activities. Cycling got in there, there were a couple of days with very little activity, and then others with many units of activity. Much of the activity was short walking segments. It is interesting, when translating those into … Continue reading Fitness Update: Minutes tracking
#133: The Strife Is O’er
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! 1 The strife is o'er -- the battle done, The victory of life is won; The long of triumph has begun: Alleluia! 2 The pow'rs of death have done their worst, But Christ their legions … Continue reading #133: The Strife Is O’er
On The Ballot: More State Offices
I've been going through the ballot I'll have to vote on Nov. 8, and looking at the options available to me. None of my views are set in stone. I welcome comments from people to help broaden my perspective. That said, I also don't take my positions on whims (though last week I bemoaned how … Continue reading On The Ballot: More State Offices
A Blast of the Past #66: Proctor Birthday Party
Next we see Nathan invited to the Birthday party of Matthew Proctor, at a nature center here in the Northlands. They had a lot of fun outside, and then the usual party with cake, but the cake was a worm cake. See pictures below. I used the same idea of the worm cake and … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #66: Proctor Birthday Party
