Welcome back!

I am seriously outraged.

A woman, who knew that she was legally blind, decided to go shopping. She had her two daughters in the car with her. Oh, by the way, she also has never had a driver’s license. She decided to leave the mall, drove out into the intersection and killed a man who was on a bike run with other bikers.

She told the police officer that she didn’t see him. She hemmed and hawed about whether or not she could actually tell if the light was in her favor. She also told the office that she was legally blind.

When she went to court for this, she tried to get a lower sentence and get the court to feel sorry for her since she couldn’t see very well. The judge threw out her appeal and sent her to full trial. The jury found her guilty of manslaughter. Now, her family is trying to say that she did not get a fair trial since she is black.

I wonder just how fair the trial was for the man she killed when she broke the law and got behind the wheel of the car she was driving? Her family has offered no sorrow for the man killed, or for his family.

Yup, it is that time again.

Have you ever noticed that when you get tired, that is when all of the stuff seems to happen?

I do not know about you, but I am not really into the hustle and bustle that goes with keeping up with the ‘Jones’. I have heard that people are lining up in droves to get this or that which happens to be coming out. I just want to get along without fuss. There is a lot going on over here at the apartment complex. The owner will be doing some upgrades on the apartments that are required by the government.

I have no idea why, the apartments are very nice, but Uncle Sam wants this, that, and the other thing. He does not care about the upset that is being caused for the senior citizens effected. I have seen people giving away things that they really want to keep, and putting out for the trash man, some things that they do not want to throw away.

Government seems to be a big pain in the a**. I wish that the government men responsible for this stuff would have to go through it the same time that everyone else does. See how those people ‘in charge‘ like the hubbub.

PHOOEY

We have some friends who came up from New Braunfels, Texas. They cam up on his motorcycle as it is their only way to have transportation. It is in trouble.

A couple of mechanics have told him that he needs to put in a new jet kit. That kit alone costs almost 90$, and then there is the cost of the mechanic. They now have only the money for gasoline to get back home, and they are not able to use the bike for it will burn itself up if they try.

We are not the only ones who are in need concerning the transportation that we have available.

We went to the local food pantry today and found out that they are running out of food. One of the ladies came out and asked another why she is there today since there is nothing for her to do since everything is running out. How can our politicians say that everything is getting better when people are going hungry, becoming homeless, getting stranded, and there is no one there to help?

IF everything is so rosy, if you listen to Obama, why are the food pantries running out of food, and there is no help for travelers, and people losing their homes. It would be nice if the politicians would get their heads out of the sinking sand and actually look around at what is REALLY going on. They

must

be blind.

Well, I guess the title says it all.

With what congress has done, we will all be needing a way to earn extra income from home. I do not expect that a whole lot of the country is happy right now, so I am not alone in my grumpiness.

The economy is still throwing out a lot of flack. Businesses are in rough times, families are in need. More income would really be wanted by many people.

I don’t know about you, but I feel betrayed by the politicians in Washington, DC.

Nancy Pelosi promised to co-operate with both sides in the political battle and to do things to help the citizens of the country. She has not done as she promised.

So many people in this country do NOT, repeat NOT want the so-called health care bill. Yet, the politicians are trying to kangaroo it into effect no matter what the people want. So much for helping the people.

Well, it seems that the politicians in Washington do not want to listen to the American people. They are wanting to push through the so-called health care bill.

I say so-called because it will adversly effect everyone around. We are a family that has very limited means. According to the bill, we will be forced to pay for health care insurance where or not we actually have $10 to spare. Someone will then determine if we can afford it or not. We already know that we cannot afford it. We count every penny that we have. Lincoln no longer has a beard.

So when my brother-in-law sent me the following e-mail, it really hit the spot.

Dear Employees:

THE BOSS

It really fits.

Everywhere that I look on the TV right now, there are political ads everywhere, everywhere….did I say EVERYWHERE?

This man says this, that man says that……noise, noise, NOISE!

I am an opinionated fat broad and even I don’t have as many opinions as the politicians do in all of their ads.

I know that they are trying to get elected, I just wish that they would tell the truth.

OOPS, if they did that they would not get elected….would they?

Am I the only one who feels that the political course of our country has been side tracked by the media frenzy that goes with elections?

Well, the on going saga of my husband and his possible surgery goes on.

I was wondering why nothing was happening. So, I called the doctor’s office to find out just what was going on. I managed to talk to a very nice lady who then told me that the doctor was out SICK.

No one told us anything until them. We kept waiting and waiting for someone to call. The secretary, who knew that we had been waiting, never called, she just took her vacation time since the doctor was out sick.

Anger is too mild a word for what I felt when I found this out. The same person who fouled up the first date for his surgery by with-holding information on medicine to stop, couldn’t be bothered to let us know why the surgery wasn’t going to happen any time soon. Never mind all of the pain that he has been going through each day with all of the procedures in catheterization. Anger, oh yeah, but the lady that I was talking to was not at fault. So now we continue to wait, …………..still………………………………………..

Well, my husband was supposed to be operated on on December 10th.

It was fouled up. The secretary ‘forgot’ to give all of the information to us. My husband was supposed to stop 2 medicines for a week before the operation, and we were never told of this. Now, he has to go through the cardiologist the day after he was supposed to be operated on and we do not know when the operation will be.

Yes, I am GROWLING HERE. He has to go through unnecessary pain every day that should be ending soon. Instead he will be going through it for at least one week longer. It makes me wonder what else the secretary fouled up.

While I am mentioning traveling….

Do you realize that there are a lot of crazy people in cars out on the highway? If you can safely look at the car next to you, check out what the driver is doing.

Once I saw someone putting on mascara using the mirror while ‘driving’. Hello, what about watching the road or where you are going? Or maybe that is just something extra and ‘not’ necessary?

Give me a break (hopefully not a bone that is). Talking on the cell phone is another pet peeve of mine. How is that phone call more important that your life or mine for that matter?

Do I sound like I am griping? Of course I am. I always thought that when you were driving, you weren’t supposed to do anything else. How about driving and talking to the other person in the car. Of yeah, you are looking at the other person and not at the road.

If these cars were guided by an ‘intelligent computer and the driver was not necessary, I could see doing all of these things. That is not the case. I do not know about you, but I am not ready to die for someone being a dufus instead of being the driver.

To me that is another taste of someone abusing the power that they have.
