Early winter

Yesterday Phil the Groundhog saw his shadow and predicted six more weeks of winter and that makes me very angry. Who decides if Phil sees his shadow it is not Phil, he is a big rat and can make no decisions of his own. I think the man who decided owns a snow removal company and needed a few more weeks of work in his business, thats the only thing that makes sense to me. I am so ready for spring it makes me mad to think that we will have to deal with six more weeks of winter.

Bailout

The upcoming bailouts are a total waste of good hard earned money, and the fact that it is our (hard working americans) money is a burr under my saddle.  I say let the companies that are failing go under and let some one who can run a business and make money take them over, I am not in the mood to have my hard earned money go to bailing out failing companies and that is the bottom line as far as I am concerned, I will never support a President who is so willing to waste our money.

No school

They have called off school today because it might snow! Not one damn flake has fallen and I am trapped with my kids inside all day. I had to take a sick day at work because on such short notice I could not find anyone to watch the kids. I think the schools should take the parents into their thinking about snow days and keep the kids in the school where they belong during the day. I watch them at night and the school has to watch them during the day, that is our deal and they better stick to it.
