US Warns Cuba May Have Biological Weapons


The Bush administration has warned that Cuba may have a biological weapons program that represents a terrorist threat to the United States.

The U.S. State Department has accused Cuba of harboring terrorists and has listed the island as a state sponsor of terrorism.
Excuse me?! Didn’t we put the terrorists there? Aren’t we, the US, the ones “harboring” terrorists on Cuba?

In fairness to the wife, there was more to the story than I told. Yes, Noah was shoving the other boy around and “not letting him go home” but it was in an attempt to assert himself for which he should be commended.

I feel as if I mishandled the entire evening. I went from an afternoon of having Sarah’s therapist saying how well she and I are doing to making her cry over something schtupid. (fortunately I finally backed down and gave her a long hug, just long enough to let the dog eat Sarah’s dinner). The baby was mad at me because I wouldn’t hit her up with another fix of Children’s Tylenol despite her bringing the bottle to me, cutely asking, crying, then acting completely pathetic. I gave Tommy the “you only care about yourself speech” — that was like talking to a wall. And Noah got his over the fight. At least I didn’t get upset with the cats, fish, dog or wife.

Took Sarah to her theraphy appointment. Returned to find Noah bullying one of the neighborhood boys. I wanted to enact a swift punishment (having already made Noah apologise to the other boy and his father) and Cathy defended his actions. I understand more and more everyday why the traditional roles have the woman raising the kids and the father away from the house most of the day earning the money.

I put another voicemail in with the company that helps our special event annually. I may need to drop in on them.

Amy is up.

I have the strong desire to brew. But I can’t brew just a cup. I don’t know how! I suppose it’s time to do some ratios.

I almost forgot to mention that Amy was up most of the night with random crying. I felt horrible that I could not figure out what was ailing her.

The carpool crew left out the door at 7:04 and I warned Tommy that his bus would be here in 5 minutes and his response was “and you’ll be back in what, 10 minutes?” As we were waiting in the driveway of the carpool friend Tommy’s bus drove by. So I went back to the house to make sure he was at least making an effort to get on the bus. He was in his room panically putting on clothes say “I know. I know. It’s here.” So I left him to his on accord and last saw him walking barefoot to the bus carrying his shoes and socks. At least I’m certain he didn’t have time to sneak stuff.

The others were dropped at school in great spirits. The carpool friend has spiked hair today; I have been forgetting to spike Noah’s hair and he hasn’t been mentioning anything. His allergy cough was bad today. I need to get out and buy some Claritin for him.

Starting to really enjoy Blogshares. This is my latest purchase. No particular reason. I’m playing penny stocks with it and it has links to music.

A New Day!

Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:

This Morning

Slept hard. Vivid dreams but no details remembered except I know one was about the kids and another was about waking up.

When I talk to the 7 year old and he stares back blankly, it gets on my nerves.

Today’s primary goal: Filing cabinet and office cleaning. Secondary: New client acquisition.

Last Night

Watched Charlie Sheen on “Terminal Velocity.”

Rough afternoon. I became increasingly intolerant of Tommy.

I did finally get a “round tuit” and cleaned out an entire carload of Goodwill stuff! What a pleasure!

Took Tommy to group therapy and Amy to a park. I had the opportunity to give some climbers advice on how to walk a slack rope and taught them how to stand on each other’s shoulders. Amy got a good laugh out of me trying to walk the slack rope. I just thought that we should have one in the yard. I bet the boys would get a hoot out of it!

Amy loves the outdoors and thoroughly enjoyed the park. Tommy had an outstanding group session “his best ever.”

Returned home to cook fish sticks and crab legs for dinner. Now I’m weary but don’t dare lie down.

The task. The biggest two things that would help this household are 1) predictable income and 2) cleanliness. The predictable income will take time and can be arranged while others sleep. I think I’m set off on #2. The variety of choices are unending. I think I will begin with a trip to Goodwill.
