Is everyone so busy they can't get on here?Or have they been getting all that secure stuff and then having to sign in each time?I think twice now about the amount of time it takes on here.

We look as though we will get a few drops of rain.Need it, and we've done our running for the day.How two people can spend so much on food I cannot believe.By the look of prices it must be a fortune to feed a family of young growing little people.

Since I lead such an exciting life I can't even think of much to talk about.We could Bush bash since things do not seem to be getting better.So many of the old around here are really getting bashed.Some have to sell their homes and -or go back to work if they can and if they can find something.We won't even get into health care.

Now all that miserable stuff is coming from one who is fortunate and happy.

Oh--how many of you give blood?I'm a real chicken but think I will when the blood mobile comes here. They are so short of the stuff that I feel guilty.

I am embarrassed to say that I have never given blood. My friend Helen that lives in FL. had never given blood until the tragedy of 9/11 and she wanted to do something that would make a difference and she started giving blood every time she could. I don't know how often you can do it, but when they contact her she goes right in. I admire her so much.

Been busy getting ready for vacation. Plus last time I posted no one responded so I got bumped down to never never land within a couple of hours. LOL!

Haven't given blood in a long time I should as I'm B pos. which I think is needed.

Have a nice weekend, Martha.

Did you say ya'll 'need' a few drops of rain?? I've not been able to turn on my computer for several days. Every time I get some of my chores done, it's about to rain buckets full! The thunderstorm warnings have been showing up for days here. This computer doesn't get turned on as long as that kind of weather is coming. It is getting cloudy as I type.

I agree about the food bills! We seem to spend a great deal of money also; of course, I do find myself building a little stockpile of canned goods, just in case I don't feel like cooking. I do use my crockpot and find it a luxurious way of cooking something without having to tend to the meal.

I wouldn't mind giving blood, but they don't want mine. I had undulant fever when I was a child; that and the medicine I have to take make me 'undesirable'. lottie77
