It could be Worse

This image has nothing to do with today's post.


The local Fox affiliate is a hoot. The Fox network is so salacious the try to sex up everything and make what ever they rep[ort on bigger then it ever is. Like last night Fox begins reporting about how bad the next bunch of storms coming into this area in going to be. Driving snow and sinking temps is going to bring winter back for a while. Anyway the storm came in this morning, and luckily, the storm held off till after I got to work. Snow fell, actually there seemed to be a white out for a little while but soon the storm just sort of fizzled out. A little snow hit the pavement and streets but by noon the sun was out and what snow, which had fallen had melted. The clouds persist and I doubt the temps will rise into her 40’s but still it looks more like Spring the Winter out my window. I think the weather guys “jazz it up” cause that’s all they have.

You will also notice that I did get my camera figured out. I downloaded the images from the internal disk to the media card and down loaded. So everything is working fine again—I thought I might have to get another camera. Yeah, right, like I will be getting another camera. I won’t be getting anything for a long time. Dianne still is out of work so that means I am the only income earner in the house right now; things are getting lean, very lean. We have even considered selling our art reserve. I am also going to have to crack into my savings (401k) plan with the state, even if the penalties would be severe—if we can just keep going till Dianne’s disability comes through or that she is able to return to some sort of work activity. I think she eventually well, or I will the dream second job. Some thing is whole season of stress will be a dark memory on our life. I guess we could loose the house but life would go on right? I sure have got used to the house or the concept of living alone and in piece. I don’t know how I would fare returning to apartment living. I could do it but it would just be painful and very annoying. I truly hope we don’t have to do that. You know, When I think of how painful this experience might be for me I am reminded that I have to chair meeting tomorrow for my friend Phyllis. Phyl is great she is a real person, someone who believes in humanity and serving humanity. She is also a mental health professional and serves on this committee, I will be chairing tomorrow, as an advocate. Phyl really cares about her people. Phyllis is resigning from the board—she had breast cancer. She started her second round of Chemo last Monday and did not feel she could chair the board any longer and asked me to step in for tomorrow’s meeting and then apologized. Really loosing your house is nothing compared to losing your balls, or tits or life. Thanks Phyllis we love you, wish you the best…
