The Reef

~Well kids, I now have a legit reason for my Non-boating loving self imposed apprehension...a little movie I watched today called The Reef.  Apparently based on  a TRUE story of some mates who were shipwrecked and all of them but ONE was eaten by a shark.  Okay, so there is no confusion here....not all at the same time!!  It hunted them down one by own and terrorized them.  The lucky lady who survived was rescued by a fishing vessel on a giant coral reef. Sooooo, the lesson I learned at watching a movie I probably had no business watching was...ta daaaa.... sharks really do eat people!!! I mean, how arrogant are we as humans to even think that we belong swimming about in their homes wearing suits that make us appear to be some sort of dinner for them!!  Don't get me wrong, I LOVEEEE the ocean.  I cried the first time I saw it, which by the way was when I was 19 years old.  What can I say, I am from a square state. Closest ocean is like 9 hours away!! Anyway, I wanted to share my thoughts on sharks,how they will and do eat humans!! And also my thoughts about boating so far out in the ocean one cannot see the precious land we call home safe home.~Just a thought.

So, story for today:

Where did winter go???? We normally have had at least 4 or 5 snowstorms by now, this time of year.  We have only had to shovel one time!!!!!!!!!!!  It all seems a bit surreal to me.  The other day I was in the grocery store, a woman behind me, who I had made eye contact with, asked me what I thought about the weather.  Now, mind you, that day it was 55 degrees out!! I don't know?? I said.  She leaned in towards me and whispered," I think it is a sign of the end times!!"  Those of you who know me know that this girl loves JESUS, and reads the Bible. I had to premiss my next statement with that.:c0  I said.....no, I think we should blame Al Gore and his Global Warming!!!!  She huffed and gave me a tsk tsk sound.:c) This was funny for two reason, one because I always make conversation with strangers in the checkout line, even the grumpy looking ones.  Two because of her reaction.:c) i wish I had a photo of her face, it was priceless.  Now, I am not a synic, or don't feel the need to step on peoples faith based views on the weather, I was just trying to make her smile...........fail.
