Just this week, at work we found out that our profit-sharing payout, based on last fiscal year's performance, is going to be a nice percentage of our total salary. It got me to thinking about salary, and how mine has increased quite a bit this year. In January, in connection with my promotion, I received …
The Gosnell Story (abortion butchery) Will Stay Top of Mind Here Beware Graphic Images Below
[Author's Note: October 14, 2018. A Movie has been made about this Butcher of Philadelphia. I urge ALL my followers and readers to see this movie.

Zeal…I really DID build that!
In about 1975, my first husband and I had returned to Seattle from Minneapolis, and were living on a shoestring. He had found a job as a transformer winder at a company that made industrial transformers, and I, with my MA in psychology, was working as a pricing clerk in a hospital pharmacy. Now, Larry …
Stock Market took a dive today!
Do.Not.Panic. Hold on, do nothing, and whatever you do, do NOT sell anything! I intend to keep my eyes open for bargains. Oh, yeah, and I found out that my company is being acquired by another company, and I am again in danger of being laid off. It might not be until next year, …
A Not-so-modest Proposal to ameliorate some of the damage done to our National Forests by Smokey the Bear and his henchmen in the Environmental Movement
Ever since I can remember, Smokey the Bear has been telling us that only WE can prevent forest fires. So, who told Smokey that the Prime Directive was to Prevent Forest Fires? Well, since the 1940s, the US Department of Agriculture used him to prevent Human-caused fires. In later years, Environmental Wackos did their best …

New Link in my Sidebar-LifeSiteNews
Here's a link to a post by a friend of mine, over at Ratburger.org. I was impressed enough by his post that I have added a link to LifeSiteNews on my sidebar, so Pro-Life RushBabe49 followers can go directly there. I am appalled by the actions of the Culture of Death (abortion supporters) who seem …
Birds-like you see every day…but different
Wherever I go, I watch for birds. Even in my back yard, I love watching our birds at the feeder. Normally, juncos are ground-feeders, but ours just love hogging the feeder, watching for chickadees and nuthatches who might want to get in. This is a junco and our song sparrow vying for the preferred station …
Tranquil Thursday-Sea and Sky over the North Pacific
it's the end of the day on Thursday, and it's time to get in a little relaxation. Gaze at the photos of the North Pacific in July, from the deck of the Crystal Symphony. Many faces of the North Pacific Ocean, and the infinite sky. In the photo above, can you even see where the …

Something else I found on my trip to Hawaii…Birds!
I am an amateur bird-watcher, and when I see a new one, I check it off on my "Life List", which is in the back of my 1960s edition of Roger Tory Peterson's Field Guide to Western Birds (which is now a collector's item). Fortunately, in this guide are two pages of pictures of Hawaiian …
