What in the heaven's name makes that a severe weather alert?! They do this on TV too, run that noisy little sound and trail the information.

This is not unusual for this time of year here! If you don't understand low water crossings then don't go out and drive.

Are we all such idiots now days? Do they have to say something or lose their little jobs? Gee whiz!

Otherwise I'm fine. Went to pool yesterday and then again today. Didn't think I worked as hard today as yesterday yet my blood sugar was lower today.

I've taken a lot of time to transcribe the tapes I did with my mom and dad in 1994 and put it in the big journal. The peek into their lives has been received well. Should you wish to read it send an email request.

I have oodles I need to be doing around here. I can't do any more psp lessons from the group because Little Egypt is out with surgery. I sure hope all went well for her.

I'm going to get a cup of decaf right now and take a nap I believe. Then hopefully I can get around and read xanga folks.
