Yum - Yum

Time to update this thing before someone comes after me. Star's burn went well and we enjoyed the time spent together. The drive down was great as the leaves were just starting to turn. AJ and #2 went with us, so we had a car full. The jury is out on who (AJ or #2) travelled the best. After spending Friday Night and Saturday with Star we headed for Florida and a few days with Wild Mom. A few items were knocked off the sonny-do list and we saw our friends that mattered the most. The trip home included dinner at the Old Mill in Pidgeon Forge, TN. That is always a great meal. Oh, don't forget the stop at the Candy Factory next door. We returned with 2 lbs of chocolate covered raisins and 2 lbs of maple fudge with nuts. Returning home we got back into the work cycle. Saturday (Nov 1) was the Church's Fall Festival and that was great. Lil Princess, AJ and Lew looked great in their costumes for Trunk-or-Treat and we had a blast. Sure wish the other kids had spent the day with us but it seems more and more that they have no time for us. So we will love the GrandKids to death and make do with what we have.

Work is the same. The new project is coming along rather well. Tuesday the mail server crashed and caused me quite a few lost hours of sleep. Ever wonder what happens when you email a 180 Mb attachment to someone in the same office? Then send it again when it fails?

Lady is catching up on her missed work and trying to set aside some time to take Wild Mom to Pidgeon Forge in the near future.

#1 is doing well and keeping AJ occupied while Peanut works. She loves the manual work. Now I have to show her how to park the truck safely at work. Someone backed into it and crunched it. Luckily, someone saw it and wrote down the tag number and description. Monday, I am supposed to take it over and get it fixed at their expense.

#2 started his job at GameStop. Do I hear a small cheer! or gasp of surprise?

I guess we will see what the lowest rated Congress (lower than Bush) will do now that Obama is elected. They tanked the economy under Bush ... so what will they do with a bigger majority under Obama. Sell us out?
