(85,373 posts)Just quickly reading through this weekend's fare has exhausted me....it's depressing, really. To think that with all the shocks and consequences we've endured since W, this kind of nonsense and crime and stupidity is accelerating, not declining...it's enough to put a body back in bed forever.
I hope the Final Crash comes soon, for all our sakes. Because the only other alternative is Fukushima's Final Solution.
MEANWHILE...
It's going to be busy out in the real world for me. I'll see you when I get a break.
I did a typical Demeter thing. I bought a dwarf peach tree, which I have to plant today. Peaches are iffy, dwarves moreso, but dammit! I have to have something to look forward to!
The Kid and I toured a new program for her...it's only a year old, and it's perfect. Stimulating and protected, not just day care. I may have to get a job in that town, just so the cost of transportation doesn't kill my budget, but then, I could give up the paper route and have evenings and weekends and maybe even more...if I can find a job, of course.
This program is what I had hoped the prideful city of Ann Arbor offered its vulnerable students...and was that a disappointment!
So, wish us both luck! See you!
