I posted this photo just because it was what I wanted to look at after a day like today. I only wish I could hear and smell the ocean as well...
Tom DeLay attacks the Supreme Court. Pope Benedict XVI--God's Rottweiler. Newt Gingrich positioning himself for a run at the presidency. Mass murders, car bombs, and kidnappings in Iraq. Bush's anti-UN nominee for UN ambassador shelved. TOO much.
Plus, I spend two hours attending a meeting that I THOUGHT was going to lead to major local contacts for my business. Instead, it was a thoroughly bureaucratic, committee-speak snooze. I never imagined an organization that is supposed to be about promoting the community would be so cliqueish, negative, and caught up in red tape.
What a let down! Felt like I'd been run over by a truck when I got home. And then I had to iron and pack for my weekend event in Astoria. I'll be sallying forth tomorrow morning to attempt the first solo set-up of the booth. I just hope I don't damage myself or any of the equipment... I was given some hope, though, when we were out for Chinese last night. My fortune cookie said something to the effect that I would travel and get a lot of money. Seemed to bode well for the weekend. Wish me luck...
The picture is great, the day horrible -- good luck making lots of $$$ today!

What a beautiful picture and I wish you the best of luck! ~ Lori
ReplyDeleteThis beautiful photo looks like a painting. And I wish you the best of luck on your solo set-up. Hmm...sensory overload; this is exactly why I try to stay away from news programs. I can't handle the constant bombardment of terrible happenings. I know, it's the old ostrich with its head in the sand approach but it works for me.
ReplyDeleteFantastic picture, as usual. I've found that as long as a committee is tied up in red tape and arguments they don't actually have to decide anything. :-)

Hope your weekend is fabulous!!! Make lots of money!!!
ReplyDeleteMay your weekend be full of fun and all the money you could imagine for a solo ride! By the way, that is such a restful picture! God's Rottweiler? Can't wait to hear your thoughts on that! Lisa
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa-
ReplyDelete"God's Rottweiller". man I have to agree with you on that one. I have read so many articles on this man and I have to say my profound disppointment. I am not a Catholic, I am a Christian though and I guess it would have turned out different for all.
Sorry about your disappointing meeting, what a waste of dam time!
Thanks for the kind comment Lisa, I love ya for them!

ReplyDeleteHeehheehehee It looks like it came true. I haven't been paying much attention to the news lately. I got tired of hearing about the Pope so I tuned it out for a while. I didn't hear about Newt! That is just laughable! :-) ---Robbie
