Being Neighborly

BEING NEIGHBORLY: We live on the side of a hill here in Topeka KS. If you were to do a google search, merely plug in our address and zero in the area I’m speaking. Well, after taking Mark home and working out at the Y downtown, I was barely able to get my 95” Toyota into our driveway. I see in front of me a vehicle trying to get home. It’s my neighbor on Skyline. So we try to get the vehicle going uphill. Didn’t work. My neighbors’ vehicle is currently parked in our driveway. Being neighborly is what Jesus would expect from each of us. My annual fowl feeding at 6th & GAGE will have to wait. Sally was able to film our grandchild’s Christmas 2009. I am currently not ready to view the digital. Our family therapy continues. I am not optimistic. myron@myownfaith2.com

WEaKLY/WEEKLY

WEaKLY/WEEKLY: 12/26/2009 6:18:34 AM It’s Saturday Morning and time for my weAkly/weekly. Here’s hoping everyone watching this video had a good time with your family. Sally, Mark & myself spent Christmas right here @ home. About the only trip we made was to pick up our son and go to Christmas Eve service @ 5:00 PM. Churches services throughout the Midwest have been canceling. Our church, OSLC, is no exception. The attendance was sparse. Watch my previous blogs to get a better understanding about the true meaning of Christmas. I have many posts on the web. Love you Madeline. Myron@myownfaith2.com

WHITE CHRISTMAS

12/25/2009 5:49:20 AM DEC 25TH I’m NOT dreaming of a White Christmas, I’m living it. That is the theme of my blog this morning. We’re in a blizzard like situation here at 5112 SW 33rd St Sally, Mark, Julie S. & myself were able to attend church last night though. The TV got the message wrong and the attendance was sparse but we made the 5:00 PM service. The 10:00 PM service was cancelled. So I guess we’ll just stay home.

My Christmas Memories

12/24/2009 5:45:18 AM CHRISTMAS EVE MORNING: I had to do a 30 second video of Madeline’s Christmas presents. Sally wrapped up the presents in front of me last night. She informed me that ONE of the presents were from her Grandpa-My. J I’ll help load the VAN and then head for 6th & Gage. The geese & ducks need me. I used to like Christmas. I don’t anymore. PAST CHRISTMAS: Perhaps one of my most favorite Christmas times were during my formidable years. I grew up on a farm NE of Bruce SD Some of my previous writings were who the players in my life were. A “normal” Christmas for me follows: On Dec 24th , we, my family, would prepare for the birth of Jesus. This may sound weird, but we REALLY did have the birth of Jesus as the center of our lives. I would do the chores, feeding the animals, etc. and my job was to get some ice to make ice cream. So I would kill two birds with one stone, so to speak. The cattle needed to drink water from the Sioux river. The silage was also in ...

I'm OK

I’m OK I’m OK .. at least for now. Sally drove me to see a “specialist” yesterday to see what’s wrong with me. The ENT building is located right next to a funeral home, so I guess I’m good to go. Anyway, the balance tester made me dizzy. I’m still suffering as I write this. They ruled out my inner ear being the problem. The next test will be my brain. I’m reminded of the movie “The wizard of OZ”. .. “If I only had a brain.” I’ll be giving my brain to the scarecrow. At least there’s a funeral home close by. The best part about yesterday was I FINALLY got my 1st cup of coffee afterwards. L8r myron@myownfaith2.com

Dizziness, imbalance & Headaches

12/22/2009 5:56:23 AM DIZZINESS: Maybe, just maybe some specialist might be able to tell me what’s wrong. You see, I’ve been suffering from dizziness, imbalance and headaches. I’m sick of feeling sick! Sally will be driving me to this AM. Wish me well. Maybe even a prayer or two might help. To my atheist friends, forget it, OK? Myron@myownfaith2.com

Yesterday

YESTERDAY: 12/16/2009 7:09:22 AM Yesterday was an interesting day. I get up. I do my “thing”. I turn on my computer. I turn on my TV. I get some coffee. Have I said the word “I” enough? How’s that for being self centered? J So anyway, after doing all these mundane things, it’s time to do fun things. Sally has written her annual Christmas letter. Being the computer geek that I am, The letter has been posted on our web. The next function is to stuff envelopes. I can do that. Now that the Christmas season is rapidly approaching, we’re finding many more ADS in the paper. One of the Christmas purchases to myself from myself is a new tool chest. The 95’ Toyota could not fit the BIG box, so the 73’ Ford (3/4) Truck (My hearse) was put into action. Mission accomplished! It’s wonderful to be DEBT FREE! Thanks Dave! So it’s back to stuffing envelopes and nursing my illness. Treating & Preventing imbalance & Dizziness by Paul Silovsky, PT is my next read. I’m getting tired o...

Privacy in the Workforce

PRIVACY IN THE WORKFORCE 12/15/2009 5:40:06 AM My daily retired schedule follows: 1) Get up 2) Do my duties (you know what I mean) 3) Get coffee 4) Prick my diabetic finger 5) Turn on my computer 6) Decide what I can blog about today. So I get to #6 on my checklist and see on FOX and Friends a segment called ‘PRIVACY IN THE WORKPLACE” and it brought back memories of my career with the Postal Service. From what I heard on TV, there’s a company or someone who is going to federal court over “texting” while on the job. This news segment immediately brought back some unpleasant memories of my last days working for the Post Office. I was a computer systems operator for the USPS here in Topeka KS. I worked as a union employee from Nov 1973-Mar 2001 My job was to run a computer. On or about the last year, year ½ I was being harassed. The management made my working life as miserable as possible. I used to be called in to the head office for the most frivol ice of things. Once I got called in...

My Health

HEALTH REPORT: 12/13/2009 10:19:21 AM OK … This will be a boring report on my health. I am suffering from a cold of some sort. That can be corrected with proper medication. What my main concern regarding my health is my balance problem. I would fail a drug sobriety test and I don’t even drink. If I were ordered to stand at attention in the military, I would fail. So what’s one to do? Guess I’ll find out Dec 22, 2009 at the Ear, Nose & Throat specialist. At least they’ll tell me what is NOT my problem. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know .. OK? myron@myownfaith2.com

WEaKLY/WEEKLY

WEaKLY/WEEKLY VIDEO 12/12/2009 4:57:34 AM It’s time for my video report for the week. I’ve been doing this now for quite a few weeks. I have no idea if anyone watches these videos, and frankly, I don’t care. It’s time for my cold to leave. This illness has gone on long enough. My main illness is my balance. If I were to stand at attention wearing a military uniform, I’d be singled out. If I were to be asked to walk a straight line, I’d fail. I’m not even drunk! There’s a good book for anyone to read “Christmas Sweater” by Glenn Beck. The news this week is Climategate. What a hoax! I’m a Palin supporter. I’m a dittohead, I’ve been Hannitized and I watch FOX news. Does that make me a homophobe, sexist , racist, the left wing liberals name call us? We have a new business card: CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVE BLOGGER I see that the video is ready to be posted to http://mholter.blogspot.com

Sick

SICK: 12/11/2009 7:04:54 AM Yesterday I was sick. No fever, just feeling puny. Sally also has the sinus cold.. My voice is back, but there’s no singing voice yet. Sorry choir. So what does one do all day when sick? .. NOTHING. Spent all day deleting unnecessary emails and moving emails around to various folders. Guess I’ll get busy. The second cup of coffee is waiting. Next week I’m to see a specialist on why I’m dizzy all the time. Merry Christmas .. (can I say that?) Join us on the web if you’d like Myron

WEaKLY/WEEKLY

WEaKLY/WEEKLY: 12/5/2009 6:32:12 AM Good Morning everyone … Today I’d like to talk a little about religion. I said a little bit about my Lutheran faith and a blog reply I received this week. Visit our blog at www.myownfaith2.com/blog and learn a little more about how I stand in relationship to my faith. The web address to visit is: http://myownchurch.blogspot.com The best way to reply to any of my blogs is to own a google account. This is the Internet technology I use. I heard on the news that our BO president had a meeting with the CEO of Google. Did you know that my son John has GOOGLE on his Kansas license plate? My hearse has HOLTREM on its antique plate. Can the DMV hear in Topeka do anything right? The plate is suppose to be “HOLTERM” Now let me check on the video being downloaded and getting a 2nd cup of coffee. 12/5/2009 7:04:00 AM The video is still uploading. So, in 2005 I was dissatisfied with the OSLC (Our Saviors Lutheran Church) here in Topeka KS. Our Pastor back th...
