Celebrated my sisters birthday (which is today) sharing a meal with friends and family playing a board game. It was a simple celebration; how many troops have lost that pleasure after the trauma we have asked them to endure?

I heard a love song today (can’t remember the song) that brought an image to mind, a 12 yr old in a uniform; I had heard somewhere that most people don’t grow emotional beyond the age of 12. Wouldn’t I do at least the minimal to console a 12 yr old who has been traumatized or at least have sympathy for that child?

Went to Town Hall today to address the situation of my property for citations of being an eyesore which was televised on local TV, which I used as an opportunity to promote our cause. By the way they gave me an additional 30 days to comply and commended us for what we are doing.

I talked to David Wilcoxen who finished walking the trail for Trail of Recovery (an organization raising money to help vets pay their mortgages and other ways of supporting them) he is back home looking for work and will come out to support us when we finish our hike.

Met with a friend that is upset about oil and gas prices who said he would like to do a commercial saying that you did this to your self. I told him I get what he means but, I say I did it to myself. When I say I, I am taking responsibility and have the power to change it, when I say you, I am judging and am powerless to make a change.

My sister and I used to experiment with subliminal tapes, her friends would say aren’t you afraid of being brainwashed? She would say, I haven’t been able to do anything, I wish them luck.

Yesterday I set up a talk with the local VFW.

Before I could be likened to someone who wet the bed and expected my children to clean it and change the sheets, now that I am awake it is up to me to change the sheets and clean up the mess.

Some Mormons came by last night, I believe the way they do but, I do respect them for doing more then lip service by them spending 2 yrs evangelizing. Sort of like a religious draft.

11/17 At times I think my value of life is a little skewed when I can spend money on an operation for a pet then eat meat and not give money to aid starving children or even buy a sandwich for a homeless vet who is one of my own, am I alone when I do things like this?

Was cleaning up my property and thought how easy it would have been in the past to just go live in the woods and deal with all the laws and bureaucracy. Now that I believe being apathetic is being part of the problem that solution is unacceptable to me. Yesterday I talked to an old member of the gym (Keith) who is now writing a letter and will support us in other ways.
