Why I Take the BUS to Work

I often wonder why I take the bus because...in the winter on dark dreary freezing mornings I have to wait outside as the wind blows my skirt over my head and rips right through to the bones.  Then I have to stop all the time to add more people, and then drop them all off.  Then in the afternoon, the whole thing starts over again, but from the reverse.  So, yesterday I drove to work and because I was alone in the car, no commuter lane for me.  I was in the big crowd.  And we all  enjoyed the slow relaxed pace of not moving much.  It reminded me of times in Germany when people got out of their cars and went and talked to the neighbors, so to speak.  Once, on the way to work on a Saturday, there was a game or something and then the traffic was at a standstill for ages.  Someone got out and and started throwing nerf footballs across to other people.  It was rather funny.  But with the bus, its commuter lane all the way...and hey, I can even take a nap if I am so inclined...

Peace and Quiet

Well, Spencer wasn't home last night because of a wedding.  Therefore last night it was Brian and me.  I had to laugh because suddenly out of the blue Brian says "Ah, no dad.  Peace and Quiet."  So there you go, now you know who is the noisy one in our place!

At Church

Sunday we sang a new Hymn at church.  A clip from the Program gives the details. 

Lunch at Grandma's

As the kid's came over to eat after church today, I had a thought about how maybe in about a year or so there might be one more visitor.  It was a cool thought.    At this particular meal, Ty and Logan are watching a show on the TV.  Brecklyn is busy with the latest hairdo style and it will be interesting what lunchtime activity Grayson will have...we shall see.  Just a matter of time!

Obituary of Minnie Mea Mouse

Minnie Mea Mouse, partner of the late Mickey A. Mouse was found dead this morning, Oct. 10,2010 in the exact location of her dearly departed Mickey.  Her funeral services will be identical to his and may be noted in his obit, below.  Survivors of the twosome have not been located as of this time to receive notification of their deaths.  Minnie apparently followed in the paths of Mickey, first living on the streets, breaking and entering and theft.  May this be a lesson to all followers and relatives!
