Here's my number 2 - no not that

Today is Tuesday, October 14th. It's looking like a great week...Lisa didn't have to stay after her blood test. We came home together. It's been rough having to take her over, get her blood tested and then leaving her in the infusion ward in the hospital. The people at AF hospital are really nice, but I still like her to be home.

This financial system mess is very trying. Our President seems intent on giving away more money than can be imagined. I don't believe throwing money in the billions and trillions to people who have already proved they don't seem to know what they're doing seems like a really great idea. Remember when you were kid and you and your friends were seeing who could name the highest number they knew - thousands - oh yeah well ...billions - oh, yeah, well ...trillion (usually dollars). Is that a real thing, trillions???

Anyway, it's really making me frustrated and a little angry. I wish we could be compassionate without giving away our great - grandchildrens future.

I read today that Col. Don Blasklee has passed away. He was 90. A real WWII hero who was a real leader - not manager. He shared the "glory" of his work in the War - let others share. There are true heroes today, but few have sacrificed like the WWII generation. My hats off to them (my Dad was in the Navy in WWII).

Winter has begun to show its presense here. Frost in the morning - heck, we had snow on Sunday. The air is crisp and clean. This is what fall/winter should be like. Weather for football and hunting (although I participate in neither, I still like the cool change.
