Now we’re talking

    I’m here daily!

    I think the schools should spend more money on mental health programs for K-PHD programs. Serena has a girl friend in a PHD program at the Univ. at Fort Collins and she has been under a lot of pressure. She feels isolated and hasn’t made many friends. She talks to Serena on the phone but it’s been hard for her. I don’t think she will do anything stupid. Girls cope by talking to their friends, boys cope by playing video games 24/7. I think this boy wanted someone to stop him. He sent a plan to a school phycologist that sat in the mail dept. for 8 days. I don’t know how you stop this kind of thing. I guess love your kids, teach them to be a good friend and listener and as a parent keep your fingers crossed. This is depressing. Lori take it easy and don’t worry all the house work will be there when you get better.

    Yep I read daily too – don’t have internet at home so I read the week-end posts on Monday. I really enjoy it – thx!

  4. Dixie and Don says:

    Yes, I’m here!! We tried to read Lor’s E-Mail, but no luck. Uncle Bill received two units of blood on Monday. and he is feeling great. They must have given him the high octane instead of the old regular. He really looks and acts like the dear old boy we used to know. You haven’t told us of the outcome of the swim meet. I’m sure Jagger did great. Must I remind you that today is Mick Jagger’s 69th Birthday? Love Mom

    Alright, 4 comments, thanks. Due to your participation, I will refrain from politics today with one exception, the U.N. Arms Treaty. It sounds good enough right? An arms treaty makes one think of some sort of agreement to stop the proliferation of arms, right? Well nooooo, this is a treaty where Iran and other rogue states have the ability to submit items that would control Americans right to bear arms as our founders intended. Does anyone think Iran will follow any treaty? They must be laughing. Thankfully 51 U.S. Senators (dem and gop) have pledged to oppose it but it looks like the Pres will sign it for some strange reason. Ok, that’s all, just cannot believe it.

    Yesterday the boys swam in the am and you guessed it, I was on the phone. The youngest had a play date from 11am until 3 and I took the oldest with me to Boulder to deliver some wine. Earlier in the am, like 7am, I ran across town to the distributor and today I need to be out the door at 7 am (45 minutes) for a quick trip before a conference call at 10am. Today is the boys last day of swimming until the fall session in about 6 weeks. Mom is determined to have them swim all winter long.

    Uncle T and Aunt B’s anniversary was a few days ago but I think they celebrated last night at their neighbors. Happy Anniversary!

    It’s still hot and I checked out the Framers Almanac yesterday and it’s supposed to continue for a few more months, oh boy.

    The misses did too much again yesterday, she just won’t listen (I’ll bet Grandma Dix can relate!) as she needs to take it easy. It’s only been 8 days and she’s supposed to take it slow for something like 5 or 6 weeks!

    The Olympics start today. Uncle T will be glued to the tube for the next 18 days or so as he’s a big fan. I am too but just don’t have the time to watch them. We will catch a few events in the evening but that’s about it. Go U.S.A. Maybe we can all forget about the economy, politics, and crazy people for a few weeks. Hopefully nothing bad will happen over there.

    Hard to believe how fast the year is going, I’ll bet Uncle T is thinking of getting his Christmas lights out and we won’t be far behind. Maybe we should all go to Hawaii for Christmas! Now there’s an idea. I don’t mean for the actual day but maybe a week or two ahead, sound good?

    Time to run, my coffee is cold, I need to shower from my workout at the gym, get some sort of food and hit the road. God Bless,
