I can see as far as the trio of palm trees at the edge of the basin but that is it! Pea soup, frog, covering the river. It's eerie looking but yet bright, which means the sun should be along shortly to burn away the frog. What child hasn't called fog "frog"?

Before I tackle the mess on my desk and surrounding areas in my room, I've decided to do a posting to help get me centered. I've been watching and listening to the news this a.m., before Joanne even left for work, as she had an early appointment at 8:00 a.m. That lady works some long, long hours but swears she is taking off tomorrow, with plans to attend church and perhaps a movie in the afternoon, since there's no football anymore.

The national news is reporting about the unrest and bombing in the Gaza strip area of the world as well as the entertainer who's son died. Both stories get equal time-----get that? Our culture will put the same value on a story about a Hollywood star's son dying as they do on the potential for a huge war taking the place of the war in Iraq. Scientology is going to get thrown under the bus again, as it appears the Travolta's son suffered from untreated autism, and followers of L. Ron Hubbard don't recognize psychological disorders as being legitimate. Remember when Tom Cruise got into the face of Matt Lauer on the TODAY show about Brooke Shields suffering from post-partum depression? He was all upset because she took medication to help her through PPD, treatment which dismayed those who don't believe in mental illnesses. This just strikes a cord with me, since my blogging friend, Jami, works with sociopaths and other mentally-affected men at the prison where she is on staff. I've learned much from Jami already in our blog-sharing history!

Tomorrow is going to be a great day as I get to see many of the folks from church, some for the first time since getting back from WI. Maybe we'll even go to lunch after church, as we'd sort of gotten out of the habit, mostly my fault because of getting home to watch football.....I am hungry for Mojo's because I haven't eaten there since Lynn was here and Justin joined us for lunch. That steamed corn is so delicious! But I am also hungry for Aron's stromboli, a tough decision. Justin put something in my fridge yesterday and sort of complained because "there's so much organic food in here!". Not mine, Joanne's! Even the milk and butter she picked up for me is organic. Exactly what does that mean???????????????? Talk about a racket! I'm a doubting Thomas about organic/health food like Tom Cruise is about mental illness! I remember many years ago when the low fat diet craze was going on. It was my prediction that it was merely a fad and would go away, and guess what! I was right about that one!
