I'm glad your feeling better Cathy. Sorry you had to work sick.
THANK YOU FOR THE NICE THOUGHTS IC AND NAN! I STILL FEEL PUNY BUT IT JUST TAKES TIME TO GET OVER:o THIS LITTLE FACE IS HOW I FEEL LOL!!!
Heard on the radio tonight that things haven't improved much at all down Brook's way as far as all the trouble, damage and power-outages from last week's severe weather. And another storm-front appears headed their way early this coming week! Let's include them all in our prayers. Brook and his wife may be sitting at home in the dark eating PB&J, canned sardines and cold cans of greazy beef-stew... Yikes! (Hang in there, Brook! If'n we don't hear from ya soon, we'll send a search party!)

Yes parts of KY are in dire straights! It may just be more of the same headed this way again this coming week, let us do pray for a return to nice weather soon.
Today I took a walk and lo and behold there in my flower garden were some daffodils with buds almost ready to pop open, imagine the cold surprise they will get if we get hammered this week with more nasty weather:eek:

Okay- I don't want to get politcal... As a moderate, I didn't myself vote for President Obama, but I think he's a good man, w/ fantastic promise, and I have GREAT hopes for an incredible term (or two) for him, and hope he really makes a positive impact on us all, in time...
But I heard a very interesting blip on talk radio today (BTW, I am not so conserative that I adhere to talk-radio personalities, who I actually find pretty offensive)...
The weather in Kentucky has been debilitating and disastrous- yet we're hearing very little about it. I mean, it's being mentioned lightly and occasionally, but that's all.
One person I heard made a controversial remark that I think I just may agree with... Had this severe ice-storm occurred on Bush's watch, might it have been blown sky-high and highly televised from hell to breakfast? Might it have been made into a disaster and BLAMED on Bush and turned into a tragedy like Katrina? Hmmm...
I won't say I was a complete and total Bush-fan at all (though I totally respect the office of the presidency, and Bush as a man)... BUT, I definitely saw an irrational bias against him in the media- and definitely see a strange LOVE of Obama in the same media- which I find insulting.
Not exactly sure where I am on this yet, but do any of YOU all have any thoughts on the whole coverage (lack of coverage) of the Kentucky storm-thang?
