Another week is gone, they seem to go faster the older you get. Up next is the 3 day holiday weekend. We’re supposed to go to the annual party in Lake Creek up by Vail this Sunday, but we might just pass and take it easy. We’ve been on the go almost every weekend and it’d be nice to just hang out and do nothing.
It’s been hot, really hot, and will be between 95 and 98 degrees again today. Not to worry though, it’ll be snowing before we know it. Sweet Lori (sounds like a drink) is getting ready to go to school to volunteer at the Book Fair this morning. Our handyman is still working on our patio. When he’s done with this, I think we’ll need to look for someone else as he’s just too slow.
We were just watching President Bush and Lee Trevino on tv at a Freedom Golf Tournament. The newscaster was trying to get the former President to weigh in on Syria and the current President but he refused to do so. He even said “I know you’re trying to get me to talk about the events of the day and what the President should do and I’m not going to do it” and then followed it up with a very gracious “he has a tough tough decision”. Now say what you will about George Bush but he has been the classiest former President we’ve ever seen. Think about it, you have Clinton stumping for this and that and when his wife runs, we’ll really see him all the time. Next up is Carter, who is an overblown windbag who will still go down in history as one of the worst Presidents ever. And then there’s the Bush’s. Both are the epitome of class as neither of them have ever once said one bad or negative word about the current President, even when for more than 5 freakin years now, Obama continues to reference and blame George Bush or in his words “the former President or administration” Â for one thing after another. Wow, let history be the judge, but one thing is a fact, right now he’s much closer to Carter than he is to Reagan, that’s for sure! How about this, they even snubbed him at the Martin Luther King celebration the other day. They had Obama, Clinton and Carter but didn’t invite President Bush. They should be ashamed of themselves. If I was President or a former President, I would have refused to be part of it unless they invited Pres. Bush as well, what a joke.
Oh well, hold on to your hats and let’s see what happens this weekend. We’re at the point where if he attacks Syria, it’ll only be to save face. The British and Germans have backed out so now he’s all alone and there’s only a 9% approval rating for an attack among the American people. He even has democrats, along with republicans, telling him not to do it, plus, according the the constitution, he needs to have the approval of Congress which of course he sluffs off saying no he doesn’t. Strange times we live in.
That’s it, time to run, take care and God Bless you and God Bless the U.S.A.
