We�re living in a State where the trampling of rights and freedom is becoming so commonplace it ranks right up there with the proliferation of 7-11�s on the boulevard. And by State, I don�t mean North Dakota, either.

I�d post more about it but there just might be a sharp eyed ferret out there who would want to know. Damned if I�ll give �em the satisfaction. Maybe next week I�ll feel a little less cautious and lose the vague distractions, but right now it�s lock-down mode. Guns at the ready, ammo close to hand.

I like our new abode, I like it a lot better than I thought I would. It has a safe feel to it, you know? Built in the sixties, a lot of solid things around. Neighbors who have a sharp eye but don�t intrude. Heck there�s an older couple who live across the street who sit out on their porch nearly all day and just . . . watch. I can�t imagine what they see, but I�m glad they take the time to do so.

If I wanted to find a hidey hole for a while, to get away from the mortgage chase and regroup, this isn�t such a bad place at all. Even if I do (still)have several dozen boxes of trinkets left to unpack.
