My Second Son

Today I found out why my second son stands in one of the flower gardens in our yard. I have been telling him to stay out of the flower garden all summer long. Now I know why he is going in there. We have a several gooseberry bushes in the garden and he has been going in and eating the berries. They are not even ripe. Yet, he eats them buy the hand full.

I like gooseberries, but I like them ripe and in a pie. They usally need a bit of sugar to make them taste right too. I guess my son dosen't care. He just wants to get them before the birds do.

Something About Music

My mood today was not good. I think that the humidity and alergies played a big part in that. I thought I would just look for a song to download. I found a album by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss called Raising Sand. They have a very soothing sound. Needless to say I downloaded a song from the album called "Killing the Blues".

Music really does calm the savage beast.

Hot Summer Day

Today has been pretty hot. Actually this week has been hot. Actually I was inside the last two days. I do some part time work at the local men's clothing store so I was in air conditioned comfort. Now you may be thinking, "I thought he owned his own business?". I do, but sometimes business is slow. Its like I said in my previous post. "Do something about your finacial state". I don't remember if that is a direct quote or not but I hope you get the picture.

In case you were wondering. I do think that my business will continue to grow and do well.

Listen Up Americans!!!

I am going to say this nicely. My fellow Americans, we must wake up and stop feeling sorry for ourselves. Stop thinking negatively. Think positive and innovate. You say you can't make ends meet? Think of something to do instead of thinking how bad off you are or how bad off someone else is.

I am not going to tell you it is easy. It might be hard work and some long hours. What do you think built America? I think that we owe it to our families, friends and ourselves.

So lets get out there and do it. Lets set our minds to the task. I know we can. We are Americans.

Bad Times?

I have a hard time believing that this is such a "bad" economy. We are paying our bills and debts, buying gas for my SUV, and planning on purchasing a motor home in the next 6 to 12 months. How do we do this? Don't spend more than you have! Easy. I will write more in a future post. Stay positive.
