Where Is Gasoline Prices @ $1.98? Update. $2.69 Per Gallon Of Gasoline Is Not A Good Deal @ All In My Opinion. I Thought Gasoline Was Going To Be Reduced Pricing.

Well, here is my region gasoline update and it is not reflecting great gasoline pricing. Maybe I have seen it @ $2.65. I have no idea where the great gasoline pricing is located but it is not in my region.  With being called back into the office full time I will probably have to buy gasoline approximately 3 times per week. How is returning to work a plus when people actually produced better working from home. I am referring to the people that actually worked when at home and did not slack off. Quite honestly, I see more people tempted to step away from their desks to converse with co-workers. It can be quite tempting to get up from a desk to catch up with people. I cannot conceive better work production when there are distractions in an office setting. 

Oh, when people congregate to chit chat it can be distracting for one sitting at their desk trying to concentrate to do their work with proficiency. These are just my thoughts, observations and opinions.

Here's A Great Drew Bloom Video, Exposing Again. You May Chuckle A Little Too.

Here we go again with another drewbloom34 video. How do these featured folks get away with deceiving the people of God. Baffles me, it truly does.



Were The American People Given A False Sense Of Hope For A DOGE Dividend Check. That Is Not Very Nice To Potentially Hoodwink Tax Paying Citizens Of The USA In My Opinion That Is Of Course.

You know, I am beginning to take what I hear nowadays with a grain of salt so to speak. Sounds like great plans of grandeur thrown out there but possibly not realistic when looking deeper into it. Why toss out there things that they are not necessarily being fulfilled or can't be fulfilled in reality like it was first explained to the trusting people. It is like the old expression, putting the cart before the horse. Give the hard-working folks a glimmer of hope to look for and then it is like the rug is pulled out from underneath them. Not everyone in the USA is wealthy and a dividend check may not mean anything at all to them but there are sincere folks that believe someone and take them at their word when spoken to. I have found out that throughout the years I give someone the benefit of the doubt until it is proven elsewise. I thought Mr. Musk was going to clean up government spending, trim the fat off of wasted spending and the American qualifying people would receive a DOGE dividend check/compensation.  Hey, wasn't it originally like 6K then reduced to 5K I guess that went out the window. What about DOGE looking into the benefits our Congress receives for a lifetime if I am not mistaken. Are those benefits free to them or are they coming out of a retirement fund, social security checks or do they just get it for free, and the American taxpayer pays for it indirectly? Inquiring minds sure would like to know. Also please look into lots and lots of time off for them and the average federal/government employee I think has to accrue their time off and then request to take it. I do not think they get Summers off and holiday week time off. Maybe it is time for Congress to have an outside group decide if they get pay raises and added benefits for their job and not be allowed to vote on these things for themselves in which they will benefit from. What about if the taxpayer gets to vote on these types of things and not just get to vote on an election but extend it beyond electing them to office. Uh oh, I am thinking out loud again. Just maybe others may be thinking along the same line of thought.

I see in the news how Congress is about ready to pull back benefits from Federal employees if they vote and pass the big, beautiful 1 bill. Are there any provisions to reduce what they make and their generous benefits they receive? What is good for the goose is good for the gander, so the expression goes.

So, if some federal government agencies/departments may not be getting the voluntary resignations they hoped for, then how about offering some sort of cash incentive to get the workers to possibly resign/retire and not be subject to RIF. I think the IRS offered an option to take up to 25K offer to volunteer to retire early. Is it called VSIP maybe. It seemed to have worked for them to reduce their employee numbers, maybe that would help in other agencies/departments if the responses are not exactly what they expected. Just a random thought.

$2.79 A Gallon Of Gas Is Not Lower By Any Means & 1 Dozen Of Plain White Eggs @ Publix Is Not A Good Deal Either For $4.99.

I do not know who is telling President Trump that gasoline & egg prices are going down. Maybe somewhere else but not in my area. When can we see improvements in both areas. Thank you.

I Went To See The Movie On Good Friday, "King of Kings"

I highly recommend this movie that is playing in theatres for a limited time. I think it's geared towards children maybe, but I saw adults in the theater more so than children aged kids. It is animated but actually good in presentation of the story being told to one of the children of Charles Dickens by Charles Dickens. So, it captures the true essence of seeing the story of Jesus through the eyes of a child hearing the greatest story ever told. 

When I left the theatre, I had such hope in my heart that our soon coming King of Kings will be coming to claim His people. The dead in Christ shall rise up and the true believers in Jesus will join them when He parts the eastern sky and the trumpet sounds to call us up. Such a glorious day to look towards as hope in our sin sick world. I am being shown so many false prophets, apostles, teachers, evangelists and pastors with many well-known names of them basically prostituting the name of Jesus to sell their wares. Sin sick world of religion nowadays and how did this ever get so out of control baffles me.

I was one of the hoodwinked believers that took the bait and gave to many ministries with faith in my heart and wanting to truly believe the stuff they were peddling under the guise of the gospel and THUS SAITH THE LORD dreams, visions, encounters. Folks I have shared so many aspects of my life with you, and I am sharing today as a warning since I learned it the hard way the truth by being duped big time.

I cleaned out the other day a few more authors of books I had acquired in my Christian book library. This time Kenneth E Hagin, Jeff Dollar, Jeff Jansen and yes, Don Finto. I was shocked to receive a recent email asking for donations to celebrate his 95th birthday this past week. I think it was appalling to use a birthday as a hook to get the people to donate when the average person does not have the audience/capacity to solicit donations to be given when they have an upcoming birthday. I am going to share with you what my email reply was that I sent to them if I may. How many times do I have to keep begging for the federal government to open up a department like DOGE to investigate these 501c3 nonprofits, ministries, churches that are possibly bilking trusting believers and somehow getting away with not paying taxes. If they would just create the office of investigating this alleged fraud/waste/shim shamming within the church, it would possibly stop this nonsense. I keep suggesting the title "DOMA" Department Of Ministerial/ministry Abuse. I wonder how much money the government would then be able to take in as revenue if the false were exposed and found out and they had to pay back taxes owed for the years of hoodwinking the people? There I go thinking out loud again.

Then there are the false that keep saying they're going to heaven getting divine insights from Jesus and writing books about this insight and making money off of the profits brought in from the sale of their books, ancillary products. It in my opinion it is a money-making scam and innocent people are feeding this wicked cancer within the church world so to speak. I often ask the Lord in my prayer time when is this going to stop and how they mock Jesus with some of their bizarre experiences they share on YouTube and other media outlets with people that actually subscribe to these people and buy their merchandise. This sort of stuff was not put up with in the bible and there was a very serious dealing with this in the bible. Caught lying=serious consequences to some. Read your bible and you will see this for yourself. Some of these so-called prophets denigrate the honor and glory and reverence for Jesus that died on the cross for the remission of our sins. To give us the opportunity to accept Jesus into our hearts to be the Lord of our lives and to spend all of eternity with Him in heaven. May I suggest looking up some of the videos drewbloom34 Friday Fruit Clips and you can view for yourself this utter nonsense going on out there. May I warn you that some of your favorites just may be featured in these videos. They are so ridiculous and when you view them you will find yourself laughing at this sheer nonsense being spewed by others under all the lovely titles, they like to give themselves. Church clean up your act and clean it up really good because you just never know if you and your alleged ministry will be exposed next. People are getting bolder in sharing their stories of alleged spiritual amongst other alleged abuses within the church/ministries.


Uh oh, I see a typo or two as you can see. Spelled Christians incorrectly and added a , when it was not needed.

"Hello,

I trust you are doing well today. This is a bit disturbing to read asking for birthday donations and the other day asking for donations for him being in the ministry so many years. The average person cannot just go out there and solicit birthday offerings for themselves, let alone offerings taken for all the years they ministered to people on a daily basis as a part of their lifestyle. Please stop shim shamming trusting Chridtians to take the bait. I truly thought you all were a good, responsible ministry that I gave to on occasion but maybe just maybe Holy Spirit is recently showing me a different perspective about churches and their scheming tactics. I recently have been cleaning out my library of Christian authors that are using books, constant visits to heaven/experiences they are having too they say, and always getting prophetic words from God on a regular basis. Holy Spirit is truly cleaning up the church and Christians are getting a bit more discerning than maybe so years ago.
Why can't you just celebrate his birthday quietly like most folks do and if someone wants to send a gift they will.
Not a gift sent via the power of suggestion via media outlets.  I know about honoring and celebrating one's life for my mother lived to the age of 93 years old.

Sincerely,"


Oh, I never did receive a response back to the email I sent the other day. Do you think I ever will???

Will All Government Employees Be Offered The Same VSIP Option, Up To 25K Payout To Retire Early? Some Departments Offer It But Are All Departments Offering It To Reduce Workforce?

Just wondering if all departments in the federal government will offer in kind the same VSIP (Voluntary Separation Incentive Program)? With so much talk out there in regard to downsizing employees within the federal government. Do some departments within the federal government have bigger budgets than others that allows this option or will this be an option across the board to downsize? This is how it is listed when doing a search and comes from OPM description:

VSIP, or Voluntary Separation Incentive Payment, is a program that allows federal agencies to offer lump-sum payments to employees who voluntarily resign or retire, typically as part of downsizing or restructuring efforts. Employees can receive up to $25,000 as an incentive to leave their positions, helping agencies reduce their workforce without involuntary layoffs."

I Do Not Think $4.99 For A Dozen Of Plain, White Eggs From Publix Is Reflecting The Cost Of Eggs Is Going Down. Electric/Water Costs Not Being Reduced Along With The Cost of Gasoline Too.

So, we keep hearing in the news how the cost of eggs is going down. I do not think a dozen of white eggs I plan on using to decorate eggs for Easter is a good deal at all. What is that all about.  I will only use these eggs to decorate or bake with. I do not consume white eggs anymore and the cost of brown eggs, organic eggs is still priced pretty high. So, what is that all about when we keep hearing how the price of eggs is going down? Wishful thinking in my opinion that is. Now, I can travel to Amish country to purchase a dozen of brown eggs for $3.00, that in my opinion is a better deal and they are literally fresh when they retrieve them for you.

Then the cost of public utilities is not reducing either, at least in my area in regard to water and electricity. I thought we were supposed to see that reducing. Then there is the price of gasoline, don't see much of a reduction in that either. Were we sold a bill of goods so to speak or do we need to give it more time because a person in retirement will not be able to live in this cost non reduction times in my opinion.

Guess What? I Reached Out To A Local In Ohio Chocolatier, Faroh's In Lorain, Ohio To Enjoy Family Memory Chocolates For Easter.

As long as I can remember, there was Faroh Chocolates @ Shoregate Shopping Center. My mom would take the grandchildren there @ Easter time to have their pictures taken with the Easter Bunny. We would purchase our fine chocolates from them also. They have incredible chocolate egg crates by the dozen. I recall liking the mint and chocolate swiss ones. I did a little research and found you can order them, and they will ship them to you. I placed an order to send some happy Easter chocolate memories to a dear family member recently and a crate of mixed flavors to be sent to myself. I selected peanut butter, mint & chocolate swiss. Wanted to surprise a family member visiting over Easter. The one family member received theirs in the mail and already started enjoying them before Easter celebration. I believe in supporting local family businesses and so glad someone from Faroh's chocolates is still around still creating family holiday memories. Check them out okay.
