Life as we know it
I am becoming convinced that our life style as we have become accustomed to it maybe coming to a end. people without jobs are growing in numbers every week and I see this as a domino effect as people have less to spend more jobs will be lost and more people will join the employment lines.
I made my way out to the propane tank to check my propane to see if I would have enough propane to last until my next check. I found a reading of 40% and that will be enough to hold me over. The propane is our only heat source.
I find it very sad that so many of the people coming into government have been found to be tax cheater and I wonder just how many more are out there flying below the radar?
We are suppose to have warmer nights for the next few days and I am glad. Kelly still is without electricity and has to come by after work to get water and to take a shower. I heard that Fema was in Oak Grove yesterday handing out bottled water.
I heard that our local grocery has meat to sell again since what they had when the power went out ruined.
The senate is arguing over the stimulus package and the bill is going no where. I am reminded of Nero who fiddled while Rome burned. As I see it the Republicans are hoping the Democrats will fail in their attempt to improve the economy so that they can get back into power but the problem is as I see it if they are not careful we may all go down the tube and if we do they will go with us.
Our little power outage gave me a wake up call as to what we might be facing if things continue to go down hill.

Tell Pugsy it was good to see his face again. I love that dog.
I agree with everything you said in your post.
Obama is trying to speak softly as to not offend the Republicans but it looks like he may have to get ugly...
I have to admitt pat, that is a pretty dog..
I would not read to much into all this doom and gloom you are being fed on a daily basis. This country will pull out of all this just like it has many times before. Have faith, it will all work out.
