I want a new tatt....... (says she daily)

Yes, it will happen. I think I will make the appointment today....err....maybe tomorrow. Always tomorrow. sigh..... Did you know that there is a national tattoo convention in Vegas?  Of course they do - right!  This is my latest idea.  I still want a compass, but can't find a good example. *grumble * grumble *






Ohhh ohhh ohhh how I wish I could sleep in on Mon, Wed, and Fridays when I don't work until later.  Sigh.  Nooo, I must get up and be mom.  I must get up and herd the kittens out the door to the bus stop. They must be outside no later than 7:07am.  So here I am up.  

Off to the gym with me.  Might as well feel good about being up- right?
But ohhhh my bed was so so warm this morning.

I do have an opinion, just not what you may be thinking



What is my stand politically? You really want to know?
First of all I truly can not wrap my head around the whole political system, much the same way that Mathematics confuses me. It truly doesn't make sense to me....who does (or doesn't) do what and what each person and branch is responsible for. Secondly, I may tend to lean more to the right than most of my friends, but that doesn't mean I call myself Republican, nor would I ever say I was a Democrat. I voted for all three parties during the last major election. I believe in God but that does not define ALL of my political decisions. What is going to effect my children's future, especially the educational system drives my voting decision more than anything else, especially since that is also my husband's career.

I truly believe that nothing will ever get solved politically because if there is a Democratic president the republicans work hard to pigeon hole and stalemate everything to
pro
ve how ineffective the Dem party is and Dems do it to the Republicans when they are in office just so they can elected the next term (after proving that the other party obviously couldn't accomplish anything!) I also feel like the only things that get passed are for the betterment of those serving in government (notice they always get paid and pay raises and paid vacation times and paid after serving and and....).

I think if our nation was the size of our states it would be easier to run (like some European countries), we the people want vastly different things depending upon where we live, how we were raised and who we are.  There is no way all people can be pleased, so someone / groups of people are always going to be unhappy. I think our nation is in a sorry state and I don't foresee any one person reversing that anytime soon.

I find it sad that Detroit no longer makes my steel or that the Midwest no longer supplies my grain. "Made in China" is stuck to the bottom of far too many things...since when are nails (for construction) a product of China? sigh....
This is just the tip of what I am thinking, but enough for now.

I do have a political opinion but it is not necessarily what you are thinking.

Just old

I went out last night. I had a good time. But I woke up this morning thinking-damn!  I'm old.

sigh......

Yeah. That sucks.  Where did that huge burst of confidence go I had last Winter? 

I'd like it back
