Mind faltering. Too many great ideas to do at once so I find myself in that horrid place called “ambivalence.” I will focus on my coverletter for a few minutes.

…male and female students will appear nude in photography portions of the magazine…
…We hope that people understand the misrepresentation that has occurred and are neither offended nor expecting a porn magazine to come out in May.

The 10 yr old slipped and fell to the floor in the girl’s bathroom. Apparently there was water on the floor. She landed on hit and elbow. The school nurse iced her up and called to inform up. Sarah says “she’s fine” and I explained the definition of “bad fall” to her. I think I need to have her chiropractor uncle chat with her. Going to talk to Mom now to see if she wants her to have a trip (pun intended) to the pede.
Thank you Bart

The Strunk family of West Knox County requests the community look out for two men who tried to abduct their 16-year-old daughter on Super Bowl Sunday.

“If you are brazen enough to pull up into your driveway during broad daylight, what’s next?” he said.

She said that two men who roughly fit the same description confronted her just days before the Feb. 1 incident in a parking lot and tried to get her into their car. She was able to flee unhurt from the scene.

Cell phone problems again today. This is after having spent 40 minutes on the phone support yesterday. Apparently I can upgrade this antiquated phone, a Sony Ericsson T68 (I’ve probably invested nearly $1000 it the phones and accessories) for $19.95, a Nokia 3539. Time to research. I want color. I want bluetooth!

Got the 7 yr old and 10 yr old loaded up in the car. Drove to the 7 yr old’s friends house, whose step Dad (they make a big deal about the distinguishment there) works for the Knox County Police Department, and the mother came out saying with a smile “Jim saw you in the driveway and was betting you didn’t look at the news. Knox county schools are opening an hour late.” I thanked her. Of course our schools are having a delayed opening. The roads are wet. We can’t have these poor people drive in the rain!

A New Day!
Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:
This Morning
* We have SNOW on the ground! (And rain in the air)
* GROGGY. Walls closing in!
* Woke at midnight and rekindled the fire (I think)
* Woke at 3am and rekindled the fire but could not convince myself to stay up. I could have had I not let the evil bed monster grab hold of me. I was energized but once back in bed fell into a deep sleep.
* Woke at 5:45 to the alarm then again at 6:08 when I got the kids up and going. I returned to bed until 6:45. This just isn’t healthy.
Today’s Goals: PROGRAM, finances, resume sent
