Sick Day

Today was Sunday. I usually go to the meeting every Sunday, but not today. I felt ill and so I did not go. I did however call in and listen. Nice talk and WT lesson on respect and honor of your brothers. I liked the point how respect is how you feel on the inside towards someone, but honor is what you DO towards a person. Both are important aspects of being a Christian. I suppose you can actually honor someone without respecting them. Like a Judge for example. You might not care for the person he is, ( perhaps they live an immoral lifestyle) but the protocol dictates the he/she be shown honor, even if you do not respect them. But I don't think it is possible to respect someone and not show them honor. I'd never really thought about it before. That's what meditation is supposed to do for me I guess.
It was peaceful here this morning with everybody gone but me. Here is a pic of peaceful.



That is looking out on to the balcony from my Sunday football stadium seat in front of my T.V.Right now I am watching the Packers give the Patriots all they want to handle on the field of play. Tonight, I am a Packers fan. I am for anyone who has the chance to beat the Patriots because I am a Colts fan. As you can see we still have a lot of snow.
But it's getting the time of year to start thinking about making maple syrup, and planting seeds to transplant in to the warm earth in a few months. We may me experiencing cold weather now, but it wont last. It is time to start thinking about getting ready for the spring. This takes planning and preparation.
Jen and I really like the Brandywine tomatoes we grew last year. Some were over a full pound, and lots of them. They were also very tasty, which is unusual to get both big size with big taste. So we are planning on planting more of the same this year. I picked a seed catalog out of the trash today and Jen was looking through it. She said there is a tomato in there that is the only one to consistently beat the Brandywine in taste and size, so we are going to order some of those and test them out. I will post the results. In the meantime, go ahead and get you some Brandywine tomatoes and enjoy a great tomato in 2011.
On another note- I am trying to convert my phone vids to something that Windows Movie Maker can edit. They still make things too hard when a program will not auto convert a commonly used video format and edit it without have to first find a converter, download it, install it, learn how to use it, and it STILL NOT WORK! Phone video is 3gp type. You would think that the tech world would realize that it would be highly efficient if they would incorporate the possibility to edit 3gp video in to a commonly used video editing software. It's probably some violating of trade right for them to do it though. Lawyers complicate life. There will be no lawyers or doctors in paradise. No need for a doctor and I don't think anyone will want lawyers or tax collectors there. I would rather live by a trash collector than a tax collector. I hope we all make it there. (paradise) Just give it up after you get in, ok.....
