Did anyone see my brain?

I am sorry to show up in tears…life has me quite frustrated…

Massage is going okay…we are getting ready to make the video on aqua-therapy…Tim comes thru in the clutch again…it is kind of cool…his love of gizmos is a great thing…Dale is having truck problems and has not been in, so if you call and do not get an answer…leave me a message and I will call you as soon as I can…

School is good…I am a little tweaked…I did a beautiful paper…the teacher asked for 7 herbs…I am so anal, I did 11…it took me 30 hours over 4 days…as you can tell, I am very proud of it…when I submitted it, he returned it and made me cut it to 7….I was horrified at having to cut up my work…he was correct…he did ask for 7…the final product was okay (not as totally awesome as the first was though)…I am not angry, but I have to admit, I feel a little disappointed…my being anal has bit me in the ass again

Chris and I have been working hard…American Boudica Publishing is going to come out with 6 new products in the next 3 months…the new website…at times I feel a bit overwhelmed, but I know it will pay off when we are done

I am still on hold with the government bidding…many of the companies are still trying to deal with the bonding issue…I think the best way we can cut costs and get things done is to remove some of the red tape from the federal and state government…Our choices here in Florida this year are brutal…for governor, we have this thief who is in the lead (the LARGEST Medicare FRAUD in HISTORY), he is the reason our seniors are paying way more for their benefits and why so many benefits have been cut…he says ‘I had no idea…it was my company’…speaking as a woman who has owned or ran 9 companies…for him to say he did not know means…either he is negligent at running his company or he is a liar…the #2 guy has been caught spending state money (or use of the state plane) on or for personal issues…though the people in his district seem to do well…also note he has not lied when asked about use of the state plane…I guess I will vote for the one I do not see on TV…this means they could not find any dirt on that person…

My friend Greg came out to visit…Dale, Greg and I played Yahtzee and had a good time…Don came up later in the week and went swimming…it was very cool…mostly, I babbled about everything that was stuck in my brain from so much studying…he is too polite to tell me to shut up…friends are what make life sweet.

Cooper has been out in the garden every morning…the heat has all the plants on hold, but not the weeds or the lawn…I have a hard time keeping fluids in him…it is like the plants knew he was coming home…48 hours after he lands all the flowers bloomed…too funny…even the tomato plant in the turvey thing that got ate by the caterpillar is coming back…Cooper’s magic wand strikes again…

I added air pumps to the pond…it does make a big difference…the fish seem much happier…the algae has not been bad either…speaking of fish…I refuse to speak about BP anymore…their credit sux as far as I am concerned and I will never shop at any of their stores again…the slick just didn’t disappear and now everything is just fine…how flipping stupid do they think we are???

My animals are like a family…today, the first 2 baby sugar gliders went to their new home today…I know they went to a good home…you see they stay with the parents for a year before they are ready to go…I got attached…I think chewy bitems thought he was the dad…he was in the middle of everything and now is letting me know he is upset…the rest are not happy either…I am kind of sad myself…thank god they went to a good home or I would be a real mess…I was never good at giving away puppies either…

The children have me slightly perturbed…I am a mom…they are my children…I want what is best for them…it is no longer my choice…it is theirs…this is far easier said than done…they want to be independent…it is the same pit in the stomach as the sugar gliders, but worse

Walter has been working hard…when he is done bottling the Aquafina he has had to do all of the errands as the road has been shut down…one person fighting traffic is plenty…he has also been helping dad around the yard…he was happy when our nephew Alex came for a visit

Along with healthcare, many of the conversations have been revolving around history…to bring forth what is new…it must be built on bedrock…to do so you must comprehend the past…so to speak on this is really interesting to me…

It a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor…would you be mine…could you be mine…the house next door is still empty…several people say they will rent it, but so far it is empty…

I do not have a remedy, but I do have a warning...The FDA has now banned the use of many herbs coming from China and India that come in paste form due to the HIGH amount of TOXINS that have been added to the paste...

Well you can see, I have had a busy week…thank you for listening to me whine…I hope your week was blessed and your weekend fun…

Blessed Be,
