work and thoughts.

Well I am happily off work now until next week. And I came home last night for low census. That was good since my wrist was smarting and I had a headache. Thinking about all the snow that is coming our way. Again.........

The hospital just called and moved my tests up a hour tomorrow. Might as well get it over with. Happily for me my wrist, while still painful, is nothing like it was a couple of weeks ago. Then it felt like I imagine it would feel if you slugged a brick wall with your fist. Now it just feels like I badly sprained my wrist. Wearing my brace helps.

Looking out the window we have big fat flakes and the temp is 40. A heat wave. Love it. It is so pretty and maybe since it is this warm it won't stick.

I have been reading with interest about Toyota's problems. I remember the first time I heard about throttles sticking was on that old show 911. Some woman's throttle had stuck. On her American car. And it turns out that any of our new cars with electrical ignition could have this problem. Electrical magnetic interference. So if Toyota has to recall their cars what about Obamamotors?

I seem to remember, and heard again today, that in Jan. GM workers were protesting the Toyota plant for hiring non union workers. Interesting that now all of a sudden this issue has come up. Chicago style politics at work? Don't mess with the government? It's like getting audited by the IRS if you complain about them.

To me the government is doing their job if they make you less dependent on the government. Make jobs strong by not taxing them to death. Kind of like a parent who raises their kid and gives them the freedom to do their own thing, not run their life.

I also heard today that they only teach america history up until 1880.. After that they call it Global history! What the heck is that. I would like to read one of those books. See what part of history they are leaving out. I have a pretty good idea. No wonder so many people I know are home studying these days. Knowing then what I know now I would have. But my sons are still learning. As am I.

Getting rid of TV helped. I watched a movie, violent and the language was terrible. I hate swearing for swearing sakes. Actors use it every other word. And the glorification of violence and sex I believe is what is wrong with the country. This country which has become so brutal. Acts of violence learned at the breast that tv has become. They can call it art and pat each other on the back, give each other awards but it is still for the most part trash. And not even original trash. And seriously, most people, thank goodness don't act as trashy as the folks in Hollyweird,

Well, I am putting off going to sleep so I don't wake up and get my test. Silly of me. Time to face it and go to bed. Night all.
