aaaah! summer break! i love my job! summer's and vacations off. sure, i don't get paid for two months of the year, but i don't work either. they put us on salary, so starting this year 10 equal pay checks, no more being messed up by xmas break or spring break or odd snow days.
summer weather seems to be rearing it ugly head, but we all knew it would... it can't help itself.
so, started keeping track of what i'm reading for the whole year. i've got the excel file parked over on my profile at msn. it's in the public files, it's called booklog 2009. found another book series... the dr. scarpetta novels by patricia cornwell. pretty good stuff!
trying once again to de clutter the house. got the girls bookshelf cleaned out. the videotapes are next. husband finally building them a closet, that will be nice, as their clothing is getting too big to put in drawers anymore. i'll see if i can post pics of the progress and when it's done.
ok, getting on soapbox for a whole bunch of stuff...
so, that daycare in mexico. the one that caught on fire and all those kids either died or had major injuries? why exactly was a day care in a building that was connected to a tire factory?! and why did it only have one door?! if that doesn't wake you up to the fact that mexico is a third world country, i don't know what will. that and the fact that they spawn nasty illnesses, along with all the other third and fourth world nations. (fourth world- pretty much most of africa and the middle east).
next bit. why was our president saying sorry to the middle east terrorists? why is he telling israel to go to hades? (well, he didn't exactly say that, but that's what he meant) why is he telling everyone we're the largest muslim nation on the planet?! i guess he hasn't been to the south lately... we've got a christian type church on every corner, or close to it.
if you haven't seen the dash cam from that oklahoma highway patrol car, where have you been? that cop really needs some anger management classes. i'm thinking you don't need to fly off the handle when someone flips you the bird. isn't that road rage? doesn't law enforcement preach against that?
so, i got a semi decient wrap up of pushing daisies... but why did they have to cancel it in the first place? so they could replace it with more driveling tripe?! i don't even watch ABC anymore, and i won't until LOST comes back on in the spring. the tv in the living room is hooked to directv, the one in the bedroom needs one of those converter boxes, so it's just hooked to the vcr and dvd player we got in there at the moment. mom and dad replaced all their tv's with various sized LCD flat panels (tv in the kitchen, bathroom, living room, and their bedroom). they can't get the local feed of ABC to come in, everything else is fine. but our local ABC station is annoying anyway and we never watch it. the local news is biased, and they seriously need to get some fresh meat on the news desk. the CBS local feed is the best for news and weather. the NBC local feed is second, with the FOX local being in third.
well, can't think of anything else at the moment.
stay tuned...
