Right Verdict, Wrong Trial

Explain to me how it is that Casey Anthony got an innocent verdict and Jerome Jay Ersland was found guilty and got life in prison???  How missed up is that?  How can they convict someone who was defending himself, his employees and his inventory?  He did not plan that attack and he was not a threat to anyone.  Those losers came into his store with the intent to steel and possibly harm him.  They got what was coming to them.  Maybe the fact that he reloaded was a little extreme... but when you have military training and that kind of fear mixed together... you just react!  I think I would react the same way especially if I was protecting my family.  I think the jurors that were in this case should have been on the Anthony trial and the ones on the Anthony trail should have been on this case.  It seems very missed up! What is this world coming to that you can't defend yourself?    How Ridiculous!!!

Life in the Country

I love being at my parents house.  I love the country!!!!  Yesterday we were driving back to the house from Anadarko  and there was a skunk on the front porch!!  We had to wait for him to leave before we could get out of the car.  He comes every night... I think he likes Matthew.  There is a creek behind my parents house and I have heard owls, seen snake skins and freaky bugs, as Matthew calls them.  We are just helping doing things around the house and Matthew has really been working hard. We have painted the den and reorganized shelves.  We have dusted and vacumned.  Matthew has cleaned gutters and trimmed a tree off the roof.  He put salt in the water softner in the well house and dumped two truck loads of trash.  He swept out the garage and helped clean out the pee trap for the A/C.  We have enjoyed stories and looking at albums.  Tomorrow I get to see one of my oldest and favorite friends and her kids.  I am excited to share some gossip and eat a meal with her!  So I will be going home soon to see Dennis who is holding down the fort.  I hope he cleaned the house... cause I will need a vacation when I get home! lol

Okay.... so, I think I am a hippy!

Not the drug doing, none bathing, free sex and naming my children Moonbeam, Happiness or Rain kind of hippy... but one of free thinking, rationalizing things differently, and wanting everyone to get along... kind of hippy.
I don't like the madness of the world.  I don't like the constant need that everyone has to have it their way because that is the ONLY way and if you don't do it that way, you are WRONG.  Do you know how many ways you can get from my house to say.... California?  SOOOO many ways.  None of them the WRONG way.  Some are a better way then others.  Some of them are shorter then others.. but they will all get me there.  Why can't people just find their own way to places and enjoy the company of those along the way.  Why do we have to argue fuss and complain about our differences?  I love to have friends that are different.  I call them the "spice"!  They add some flavor to my existence and I think it helps with my journey.  And we are all on a journey so why not just kick back and enjoy the ride.  Love everyone that comes into your life.  See if there is something that not only they can contribute to you, but that you can contribute to them.  And remember, there are a lot of different ways to reach the same place.

Do you feel Lucky?
