I've maxed out. Closed this blog.
This is a way of making myself write something coherent and grammatically correct almost every day. I'm opinionated and need an outlet. I'm also prone to flights of fancy. Thanks for stopping by.

         Since it was raining Christmas Eve, the neighborhood delayed the luminaries until New Year's Eve. However, Mr. Weather Man is now predicting sleet. Oh, well.

         At our house, we're going to pop a DVD in the box and drink some sparkling cider. I know, what an exciting life, right? Hopefully, I'll stop feeling yucky by then and can reflect on the year past.

         When I'm sick, I can't read. I just can't focus on the print. So I turn to TV that doesn't make me think. That's easy to come by.

         Speaking of TV, tonight there was a lousy selection. My dad is watching Pale Rider for the 20th time. Not a bad movie. But everything else is trash! Kids are out of school. They can stay up late. Even during prime time, there were only foul-mouthed shows that I wouldn't want to explain to a ten year old.Not that any scheduler pays attention to me, but there should be more children's shows or family options, along with the usual trash.

         At work I'm still trying to make the last 11 people get their flu shot. I've been kicking their butts about this since October, so we wouldn't be doing this at the last minute. So when my boss on vacation sent me an email today giving me the order to threaten them, I had no problem and no sympathy. They get the flu shot or a note from their doctor before they work tomorrow or they are suspended until they do.I got one positive response so far. We'll see.
