Some Recent Family Photos
Sugar the Pug has been a family member since I was a kid. She's about 15 years old and stone deaf.
Grandma and Sugar. She sure does love that dog!
I love mums. I think they are an under appreciated flower.

Some Not-So-Profound Observations
1.) Gas is back over $3.00 a gallon. I am so tired of head-hunting the general area for the lowest price on gas. Seriously.
2.) While we are on the subject of things sold by the gallon, let's mention milk. Milk is another fine example of a highly exploited neccessity! In a day and age when milk is the life support of about a zillion newborns, babies, and toddlers, our fine government has doubled the price of a gallon. Who says we're not in a recession?!
3.) I was in Marc's tonight. Everything is Christmas in that store. Everything is Christmas everywhere. I love Christmas MORE than the next guy, but there is something very rewarding about waiting to celebrate it until after Thanksgiving. I resisted all urges to buy Christmas decorations at a bargain. Hmmpf.
4.) Northeast Ohio is having a baby boom! Pregnant women are EVERYWHERE!!!!
5.) I am sorry for the language, but what the hell is happening to Fairlawn?? For reasons that make virtually no sense to me at all, road crews have been dispatched to both Market St and 77 North. This has made my life miserable on several occasions and I am boycotting Fairlawn all together until someone with good sense fixes the situation. I have tried to act out this decision in my mind several times. "Let's tear up 77 North for the holiday season. We don't have nearly enough accidents on this road, so let's have on-ramp traffic merge straight into traffic traveling at 65 mph. And can someone rip up W Market street and toss it in the back of a truck? Great! " I pray that people with power will get good sense, and that people with good sense will get power in Northeast Ohio one day.
6.) Chic-fil-a is nearly open for business. Oh joy of joys! If you've never had it, you will be oh so pleased!
7.) I dislike the new Target. I can't find anything now that the store has been reset and the whole place smells like burnt popcorn.
8.) I miss Kaufmann's. Macy's stinks.
9.) I love going home. And when I say "home", I mean where I grew up. There is no hustle and bustle there. The air is clean and smells fresh and sweet. I could stand and stare for hours at things like this...
10.) At this rate, we are going to be raking leaves in December. About half of the trees still haven't turned. But the ones that have are GORGEOUS!!!!
