For the Times They are a - changing.............

Come gather 'round people wherever you roam
And admit that the waters around you have grown
And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'

Time will tell if Obama will pull this nation out of dread and craziness.
Of course he will have to be elected first, but I have the feeling he will be.

If McCain defeats him, there will be only reason for that...race...

But we shall see. I for one have high hopes for this man, most of us have nothing to lose, but everything to gain.

I watched some of the speeches this week, and tonight we'll watch and experience what might become one of the most important evenings in America's history.

So on we go to our day to day living...and worrying...and hoping...

For those of you who give a hoot and are interested in our daily crap, here's the latest poop:

Bugs rented a storage room and got herself a P.O. Box. She has started packing. Giving away a lot of stuff to friends, hauling crap to the dump.

Her power was turned off the other night due to her not paying the bill. It was a shock to come home in the middle of the night, not being able to get into the garage, or turn the lights on. But it was her own fault. I told her to put her milk in a bowl of ice in the fridge and not open it again until the morning. Open the windows for air, and just get some sleep.

That night Daddy called her and started on one of his drunken/messed up rants again. She hung up on him and turned her phone off.

The next day she heard from a friend that after he called her, he called this friend and begged him to come over and "smoke" with him. We're not sure if this meant cigarettes, grass, or....meth...He has had drug problems in the past and it would not surprise me at all if he was back on them again.

Bugs was wondering whether to call the cops on him, but I'm kind of glad she didn't. He will hang himself sooner or later anyway, the way he is acting. He's driving a friends' car, without a license, without insurance.
He is supposed to pay his first installment of the child support at the first of the month. If he defaults, they'll haul his skinny ass to jail.

This is a very DUMB boy....what a waste.

In the meantime Bugs is busy packing. I haven't been to her house yet, so I am taking this news with a grain of salt. She is a huge procrastinator. But she realizes now that she has no time to mess around now. I give it one month, maybe two, until the sheriff comes knocking on her door with the foreclosure papers. She should be out by then.

We sat her down for a serious talk (AGAIN) the other night, and it seems to be finally dawning on her that we worry about her (BIG DUH), and that she really has no alternative than to move in with us for a few months so she can catch up with her finances, and find herself an apartment.

I sent the other grand parents some of Boo's latest pictures and invited them to come and see her some time. I can imagine them missing their grand child. Hell, I would, if the shoe was on the other foot. It would kill me if I wouldn't be allowed into my baby's life.

They seemed grateful for my invitation, we will probably set up some time this weekend.

So there you have it...everyone seems to be in some sort of limbo this week....

For the times.....they are a-changing.....

Indeed.

SGMKJ!
