For all celebrating the resurrection of Jesus today, here is one of my favorite hymns. My grandmother told me once that when she was babysitting a 3-year-old Alison on Easter in Pennsylvania many years ago, she caught me sitting very close to the TV, intently watching a program that seemed intense for a child. She said, “Alison what are you watching?” Apparently I was watching an Easter history special. I turned to her with equal intensity and replied, “What’s the matter Granny? Haven’t you ever heard of the resurrection of Jesus Christ?!”
“I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness
Where is death's sting?
Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.”
—“Abide With Me” by Henry Francis Lyte
Last night was a long one as we attempted artificially inseminating Maisy for the 2nd time. The last go-round in August didn’t take. Maisy is an A2A2 jersey/dexter cross who is hopefully going to be our family milk cow someday. We are grateful for our AI tech @tessdariano who did 99% of the work. There was an ice cream truck circling the neighborhood while the mission was underway, blaring the traditional ice cream truck song, which made for a quite fitting background soundtrack. Three weeks and we should know if we have a lil’ Maisy on the way. Dad’s name is Billy the Kid. He’s quite handsome. Swim Billy, swim!
I woke up to this today. Our mini Jersey cross, Maisy, is so small she can walk under Daddy Cow. When he mounts her, his hooves can still touch the ground. The AI didn’t work a few months ago with Maisy so we’re hopefully trying again today.

Stop Bayer/Monsanto liability shield action required!
Given they don't know who they may scan, it's being used on some American by default now. And I strongly suspect this will become the norm for all law enforcement in time.
