Good morning gang. A frosty morning here but supposed to be in the low 60s today.
Finally got to listen to the morning news as I was getting ready and not a single political ad! Loved reading a column in the morning paper where the writer said the first thing reporters should ask the winners is if it is being fiscally responsible to spend $60 million for a job that pays $174,000 a yr. I don't expect to see much change. Republicans will continue to fight with each other and of course republicans and democrats will continue to fight each other. They will continue to spend very little time in Washington, won't put in a 5 day work week, will collect their perks, and will make friends in high places so they can be guaranteed a high paying cushy job when they leave office. And those friends with deep pockets will be knocking at the door to collect on their political favors. The rest of us will just be sitting on the sidelines watching. No. I don't see anything changing.
As I said it is chilly here with temp in the low 30s. One mom came in carrying her little girl's coat (she will turn 2 at the end of the mo). She said she can't get her to put her coat on. This happens every single morning but it is really chilly out there this morning. Excuse me! You are the parent. Take charge. Pick the kid up & put the coat on! What does she intend to do in Jan when it is below zero? Plus the kid has a cold and has been dripping snot for over a week now but we wouldn't want to force this child to wear a coat.
Donna, hope the mother-in-law situation is moving along for you.
Jacquie, hope things are improving for both you and Leon.
Nieciez, thinking about you.
Making a pot of chili for supper tonight. Plan to go out and get my nails done as soon as the kids are gone.
Not much else happening round here. Enjoy your day.
