still waiting for the results, snow days, and little blue eyes







so far i haven't heard from the doctor, but genetic testing i think takes a bit, no?
ok so here is our world today, snow, and calpurrnia's little pink tongue and blue eyes....she's half asleep there, basking in the heat of the woodstove
i am finishing knitting that willow cowl, and i do like the sock yarn, it's patons kroy FX and it's called copper colors.
i think that patons changed their wool blends for this however, as it doesn't feel like the old patons, it's a bit coarser.
very pretty though and if it's rough, then i have some merino i can knit an under cowl for it.....or i can line it with silk or something soft.
i made a gallon and a half of yogurt today, it's still 'cooking' by the woodstove.
we stayed up to listen to the president's state of the union and the rebuttal from the gop
i really wish these folks would all grow the F*CK up
i do feel that both sides are just saying no no no no no, like petulant children that didn't get their way
our entire country is at stake now
they are fighting over who is the better whatever.....
oh man
i don't agree with some stuff the president said, and i do agree with some stuff the gop says
however
if i was homeless i would sure as hell want my government to not only CARE, but help me, after all i am a citizen, i have equal rights with every other citizen, and i have paid my dues, and my taxes.
especially if i was homeless because i lost a job to outsourcing..........
now do i think anything will come of it......nope, not from watching the people that were in that hall.........even the cheerleaders i have my doubts about
i do think that obama said almost everything i would have said to them all!
but they are not going to listen
as being 'right' is more important to them then the future of the american people
and they are more concerned with being reelected
they should all be made to live on 40 thousand a year....... have our social securty system and our current health care
after all why should people that don't have to deal with our problems be the ones to solve them?
i want them to have some common sense
off the soap box
btw, todays snow is mostly gone now, however it really screwed up this morning's commute for everyone i know

    Wow! Photos today. I was in shock when I saw them.

    I rather agree with your soap box speech. And I like that idea of those smarmy Senators and Congressmen living on much less just to teach them how the real people of this country actually struggle just to stay afloat, because they really do not care.

    It was 2ยบ this morning. Just a bit cool, ya think? :)
