What's new? Still moving in. I must be older, because it's taking forever. I really will take some pictures here one of these days. Just haven't been inspired much lately. Go figure. We begin the task of painting the kitchen this weekend, among other tasks. The house is really something. I still wake up amazed that we are here, despite the work ahead.I am noticing racism more and more. It's everywhere. Carefully disguised to blatant. Luckily, I feel all warm and happy inside when I imagine these folks on election and then inauguration day. Deal with it, you ignorant fools. A new world is fast approaching, and your time is UP! The same with the religious fanatic homophobes. Go crawl back in your caves, cretins. If people want to marry, let them. I for one am avoiding that particular institution these days, but if others choose to tie the knot, so be it. Hey, we've made it for over nine years without a wedding-why jinx it?! Besides, as a recovering catholic girl, I rather like living in sin. (mmmmmmmmmm...sin)
School's out in less than two weeks. It's been rocky, but we made it through the sophomore year. Two more years and my youngest child goes out into the world. I sure hope it improves between now and then. I feel sad for all the young people just starting their lives in this recession-bound economy. Not fair in the least. And nothing like the world I went out into in 1974. We thought Nixon and Vietnam were bad---that was nothing compared to now. I never thought I'd be saying that.
