ZZZZzzzz.........

Yep it relaxing time! the rush is over for now. just returned from STL taking Sara and Chuck to the airport. not as busy as we had anticipated. our next stop was at Darryl and Michelle's for a quick visit. great to have all the family home for the holidays. sure is quiet around here now but i'm sure we'll get use to that again. now it is time to concentrate on Christmas. The "Easterners" will not be home for that. and then..... planning on heading to Texas or Florida for a few weeks. Decisions, decisions, decisions!

Someday or now?

Just in case you can't read the fine print, "They never phone, they never visit, they never text-message..."
Not sure if this cartoon is the present or the future. Actually Sara is always teasing me about my gadgets, such as ipod, nintendo ds, computer, digital camera, and cell phone. I don't even want to dream about what toys she will have when she reaches my age.
We returned last night after visiting her in LaPorte, IN. she and Chuck are coming for Thanksgiving. Soooo i guess i had better start planning the feast.

VOTE?

the sign in the pic has "NO HELP NO VOTE" on it.
today we went to vote and just before turning into the parking lot this sign caught our attention. the owner of the house in the background apparently is disgruntled because the government has not come in and cleaned up. all other residents in the storm ravaged community have been working hard to clean up..........but not this one is. when you have not worked a hard, honest day's work in your life i guess you would expect the government to work miracles. I just can't stand it when people do not pay taxes and never have, draw a monthly check and expect everything on a "silver platter". POINT MADE!!!!
