Happy- Thanks for the picture. We don't have those areas down here although we do have different ones. It is still 85 here.
Ally - You are so right. They tax us to death to just get a few things for the state. I imagine it is the same everywhere. Some elderly are having to decide between food and meds. Child care is at it's lowest. And this new thing,"no child left behind" is stuffing the pockets of many. It is all coming out of the woodwork here in Fl. The children are having a rough time of it in the schools. Rural schools are the worst to be left out of the stream.
Candice- It is unlikely that the teachers (esp. in Fl.)will ever make what they are worth. They have always been on the Mid/ low end of pay scale. Take care of that problem with your dog.. It is rare for a man to jump in when you need help unless ,it is his woopee time.. I have learned to say, this is not your day.
Mima- Tops tonight.. I am hoping for a loss. It is so hard for me to lose. I guess meds and age has a lot to do with it..
Bye...Joanne
