This is a picture of Crescent City beach which I have on my computer as a screen saver. I change out every now and then for another beautiful view of the ocean. This one shows a rock island with a lot of greenery in the center and a spot where the whales love to play. I have high hopes of one day standing on the beach and watching a whale close by. Directly across from this beautiful view are lovely older homes and we often see the owners out walking their dogs. Several of the homes are now for sale and I wonder if our last Tsunami scare has given the folks food for thought on living there. This area is conducive to the waves so maybe they are smart to think ahead, but the last one damaged the piers and the homes were safe. It does make you think about living in areas that are tsunami prone. I think I like the cliff area in front of our area, not as much to worry about if an when a tsunami does come our way. Aah, the price we pay for 'beauty and the beach'.
One of those cartoons that could be politically correct but from the debate last evening and from the words of the pendants our debt reduction is non existent right now and maybe, if we are lucky, the magic twelve will get it started although Newt Gingrich had a few chosen words to say about that. He really hit the nail on the head when he said the need is to get all of the Congress and Senate back and our President give up his vacation and get to work solving our huge problem now and not down the road. We really have no idea how many of our people are suffering right now. We know a few out of work for a year or more, just saying that makes me angry. We bail out everyone in trouble, how many 'voices' have you heard coming our way? We should live and learn and stop being the 'patsies' of the world.
This picture came in with a funny saying I did not keep. All I could think of is the 'stuff' hanging from a car mirror that could poke out your eye or distract you while driving causing an accident. It is so much better to be safe than sorry, so choose your decorations wisely.
There were a few one liners to make you smile. 1. "I have all the money I'll ever need . . . if I die by 4 P.M. today. 2. "Campers . . . Natures way of feeding mosquitoes. 3. I discovered I scream the same way whether I"m about to be devoured by a great white shark or if a piece of seaweed touches my foot . . . and last by not least, 4. "If God wanted me to touch my toes He would have put them on my knees." There was no one I could give credit to, but some folks do have a good sense of humor.So today I hope you can say that you had a good sleep and woke up feeling alive and well. I had one of 'those' nights when you look at the clock every hour on the hour and decide tea at three is not all bad, just the fact you think you should have something with it makes the difference in your waist line . . . .three grapes does not count! If you are wondering, the TV ads are just as obnoxious at three a.m. as they are all day. At least the program reruns give you a chance to see the parts you slept through . . . well, maybe you don't, but there are a few of us who manage to cuddle down in our easy chairs and power nap. Right now I am going to love you and leave you to have a full blown wonderful day knowing it is Friday and the weekend is almost here . . . make those seconds into something special just like you. Hugs to all.
