Alito

Well Bush has won. Alito has been confirmed 58-42 to the Supreme Court. If you have an interest in his record this is a fairly good site, http://media.pfaw.org/stc/AlitoPreliminary.pdf. Start reading the cases on page 4 if you want to skip all the abortion, Planned Parenthood controversy.

POLITICS

Does anyone else think that if Bush were Democrat the Republicans would have strung him up by his toes nails by now?

And the New Year Begins

Hello everyone. Sorry to keep you waiting for updates on my life. Not that my life is really very exciting. I have recently been reminded that it has been a while though since I posted. So here it goes.

New Year’s was not all that interesting. I was sick so I stayed home and Mr. Toad escaped and went to the party. Not that I rested. I painted the ceiling in the kitchen twice and finished and touched up spots here and there. I also sanded most of the cupboard doors. Did we go over my extra energy? Yes even when sick I get bored and have to do stuff. But going to the party was not an option. I was much happier to have slept in my own bed and there was one friend ready to pop and a newborn there. Not a good idea to spread germs.

So since I wrote I have become the official Treasurer for the Jaycees. UGH! There are people out there who should not be in charge of bills. A bill is not paid the day you wrote the check. In fact it is not paid until you send the check and it has been cashed. If a person holds the check for 2 weeks that bill is still not paid. Do these people pay their house bills this way? Why is their credit not destroyed? I am so crazy about writing checks and paying people that perhaps I over react to all of this. Ok done with that.

So besides that I have taken up swimming with Mr. Toad three times a week, in the morning. Mr. Toad is not a fan of bright and early. He gives me very mean looks first thing in the morning but he volunteered for this and I like it. It gets me moving and wakes me up. Then I am still going to the gym after work. I know this seems like a lot of extra gym time. But I was thinking about this and there was months when I would go from track or volleyball practice to swim practice.

Class has also started. I have two classes, Tuesday night and Saturday morning. I am not a fan of Saturday morning. I don’t mind getting up early during the week but the weekend should be mine. Oh well. These two classes and then one more and I will be done. MBA here I come.

I guess that is my life right now.

Ilovcoffee….How are you? Have you been staying out of trouble?
