Good morning, et cetera; hello, dear Reader, and welcome (back?) to this obscure American blog, some time before Dawn in the middle of April where I sit in a comfy, oversized cotton nightie, drinking coffee somewhere in the American Southwest.
Without any further ado, here is today's portion for us from the Book of Wisdom:
Yesterday, we took care of a couple of errands in Sierra Vista; the drive is beautifully majestic, stunning and post-card-worthy literally everywhere you look and it's that way for the entire drive; it's really like being on vacation.
Terry and Freedom Turtle
We went into a fast-food restaurant and the girl behind the cash-register admired Terry's red MAGA hat so he gave it to her right from his head (and I replaced it with mine when we got home). And while we were at our PetSmart, we got some new food for Freedom Turtle, they call it 'superworm'. I understand that those will become beetles if allowed to go through that process. She refused them yesterday, both inside and when we tried to feed them to her outdoors; hopefully she will, at some point, recognize them as a food source. At least we got the last two containers of night-crawlers for her (thank You, God). Those are her very, very favorite. 💖🐢
We'd get her crickets, but: we don't know if she'll eat them; 2) we don't keep her trapped in an aquarium or other small enclosure anymore and, frankly, 3) we just do not want to house food that sings at night. If we ever have the means, we will create the richest, most extravagant habitat for the turtle anyone's ever seen - I'm talking waterfalls, pure spring water kept at the perfect temperature year around, a massive variety of live food options (animal proteins and plants), tons of rock features to climb on and hide in, the whole nine yards. Maybe she doesn't realize how poor we are; hopefully, the love that we lavish on her will compensate for the environment we provide. Part of our plans here at the new home include creating outdoor spaces for all of the creatures (dogs, cat, rabbit, and turtle).
The windows have brightened so it appears as though Sunrise has arrived. I'll leave you with this photo of two real leaders as they both embody strength, courage, integrity, common sense intelligence, and leadership (thank You, God):
