Just Checking In.

The drive home today was a treat, the rain storm slowed traffic down to a crawl on the freeway. All in all it didn't take that long though. Does any one know what you do when there is a firetruck/ambulance bearing down behind you on the freeway and all four lanes are clogged. Past experience living in a small town reaction is to immediately pull to the side of the road. Not a good idea on a clogged freeway because the berm at the side of the road is the only place for the emergency vehicle to pass. Enough on that subject, I just read Carrie's blog and it sounds like things are going swimmingly in the west. I do think the second baby and the familiarity there makes all the difference in the world. Finally is anyone else getting as sick of news reports and hearing about the economy as I am. I don't want to turn the television on anymore and that is out of character for a tv junkie like me. The doom and gloom and interviewing the fat cats who still don't, and I am afraid never will get it, is depressing. I am probably not as interested in hearing about it because after all that has gone down in the past couple of years I am extremely thankful that Faye and I are still gainfully employed. Things are very bad in our old hometown in Indiana, it has been in the headlines recently and not for good reasons. I and my family (I hope I can speak for all of them) are hoping and praying for all the people living in Elkhart. Their future does not look great right now and they can use the thoughts and prayers of all of us, along with any financial aid that can be spared. Faye has cooked a good supper and it is ready so that's all for now!
