Subject: Things have changed.

I have great things going on in my life. I have a grandchild coming - of the couple who was married in June. I have a GREAT son-in-law, who is sure that he REALLY IS a son. I don't understand the "in-law" thing.

I am playing my guitar. I am reading; I so love that. Winter is coming, clean sheets on the bed. I can hang out there for hours.

Grumpy, I don't understand you. I don't understand ANYBODY who cannot tolerate someone elses viewpoint. I don't understand the hate.

My father was a union Democrat for most of my life, until recently. He decided that the Union only wanted to take care of the old guys, and screw the new guys, and he changed his mind. Something happened there, enough to change him. I don't know.

I know I've had my moments with Donk with the "should have gotten a cat" thing, but I definitely think now, as he is correct, some people should just get cats.

My life is full, I am a happy woman. Grumpy seems so very unhappy.

So I suspect you'll not see much of me. I might pop in once in a while, when I'm not knitting, or playing my guitar, or working, or reading, or cleaning the house.

To all of you others - take care, I'll check in now and then, but I know that my daughter was right (the youngest, not the one who just married) who came to me one night while I was on the board and told me "Mom, this is just unnecessary stress!"
