, Rain. go awayFinally got all the doctors in the same place and consensus is that I am in the same [cardiac] condition I was after my by-pass surgery in 2001. I guess I have No excuses now. In fact, I'm cutting out one drug for a month to see the effects.
I sat in the Dr.'s office and watched the rain, safe on the third floor. I know it rained almost 6" in one hour and it was the 100 year storm. No system could be designed to handle that much water, particularly after a week of soaking rains. Hundreds of homes and cars found themselves under water, full of raw sewage and no one knows what else. The clean-up will take months.

Sarah goes to stay with Rob and Cassie and the twins are spending Saturday night with us. Bill and Brenda will be alone. good time for a prank call although you do so at your own risk.

Obama's ratings are lower today than Clinton's was when he was being impeached. This is 200 days into his term. I wonder if he will be a one-term president or will he be able to persuade the American people that all of this is good for us?

Good news on the stock market: 5 more years of increases at this rate and I'll be where I was in 2007.

I am not a bank; don't own a clunker; and have yet to feel any stimulus.

  1. Nancy, Susan, Dawn, and I spent much time after lunch today discussing Obama and the health care plan. There MUST be a better way. As experience has shown, once the federal government sets up a "temporary" program, it never, NEVER goes away. Is it my age that I worry so much about these things?
