Sunday morning...all is quiet....

We woke up with a good feeling.
For one it's our day off. :>)
Just a leisurely few hours with the Sunday paper.
Me with the ads, Wheelie with the serious parts.
A pot of coffee, a asiago cheese bagel with lots of cream cheese, Wheelie with his bowl of oatmeal.

For some reason I feel good this morning, physically...rested...no knots in my stomach...

Perhaps that's due to the fact that I've lost ten pounds over the past five weeks. Perhaps it's the mega vitamins I've been taking along with the Green Tea pills.
It seems that my brain has regrouped.

I've got the towels in the washing machine, I've cleaned the bathrooms.
The kitchen is clean and the vacuuming was done because of the visitors yesterday.
Nothing else works like an incentive for getting the house clean before visitors come :>)

I've listed a few CD sets on Ebay to pay for our medical bills this month and our car insurance which is due. Our collection is shrinking, but that's okay. At least Wheelie can burn the stuff he wants to keep, so all is not lost.
Already requests are coming out of the wood works from China and other parts of the world for certain sets. Requests to stop the auction and letting them buy it outright.

Not!

I'm planning to call my parents today. My sister went on vacation yesterday, a two week sailing trip in the Greek Islands. Lucky brat! So the old folks will probably appreciate a chat from the USA.

Other than that I am planning to relax, perhaps drag Wheelie out to Publix for a few groceries.

For my readers on the Gulf coast: I'll be thinking of you, as you all make your way north to escape Gustav. For once it looks like things are proceeding well, or as well as can be expected.
I hope the few idiots who decide to stay will be safe as well.

I find it strange though, that the news channels are all concentrating on New Orleans, even though the affected areas are spread out into Alabama and the Texas coast as well. What about those people?

I read about a few people in St.Paul/Minneapolis bitching about the hordes of people coming down for the convention, and the security, and the locals having a tough time getting around.

Well...tough titties, folks..*lol* It will all be over faster than you can think. So keep your pants on and deal with it.

SGMKJ!

Whatever happend about a new wheelchair? Is it feasible or only a dream? I've been rooting for the fellow in Cedartown to come through for you all.
