Debbie, :hug: I know. From what I understand Daley hates Blago so things definately shifted somewhere along that line. All I know is I sat here praying please don't let Obama know about this, please. I knew there was something fishy going on when Obama didn't invite Blago to the election celebration downtown.

Out with the old and in with the new. I hope now things can get back to where they are supposed to be. The va owes my kids big bucks for college tuition and we haven't seen anything in almost a year. Education is suffering, pensions are lacking. Things are bad and we need a ray of light. Blago would do himself good to step down about now. Oh and his wife should be arrested as well in my opinion. :mad:

Whew, that was long. lol On to sweeter subjects. :D I am making those Ritz crackers with peanut butter and melted chocolate over them tonight. Jim and I have to taste test before I make for my neighbors right? :p

Mark your calenders Illinoisans and neighbors! Renee is coming up at the end of January and has promised to make us an Italian and possible Cajun dinner at my house! Frank, if your in the mood to cook I am sure she'd love to have you help. LOL She said she'd teach me and I declined because I hate cooking. hahahaha!

So, that means my house, end of January, all Illinoisans and neighbors welcome! Possible sleepover for anyone wanting to kick back and party like we are 20 again. I'll post a gtg thread closer to the date.

Really Sandy said if I was gonna crash at her house for 4 days I had to earn my keep by cooking :eek: Can you believe it????? Sheesh! LMAO just kidding, she was worried what with me being a gourmet and all that I would hate her food! I told her no worries I'd cook!! Now lets all cross our fingers I don't get snowed out!

Speaking of snow we are getting snow tonight...perhaps I should rethink kicking man number one to the curb and invited them both over to keep me warm!!!! :holysheep: I know I'm scandalous LOL

ohh now really wishing I was closer...how far am I I wonder..hmmmmm

I'm watching the snow rise over the glistening snow.... you???

listening to my birds get restless, waiting for me to finish chopping up their vittles...

and wondering where on EARTH Alfred Hitchcock got that idea for the movie The Birds

:D

Kay, LOL. Not sure, but do know that was the first horror movie I ever saw. Thanks to my mom, believe it or not. Had some strange fears as a child because of it. :D

Morning all! Cloudy and yucky out there, and I have to go out today. My appointment is for this afternoon, and really hoping this doc can help me out. Hopefully not a sale job, but the receptionist thought she's one of their better docs so crossing fingers.

So sipping down some coffee right now.

Hoping everyone who's not feeling good feels better soon, and just a great big round of hugs to you all. you guys are great. :grouphug::grouphug:
