What a heady concoction! And topped off with French toast, "for no reason at all." Commenting on world news is beyond my ability at the moment, as I am busy cleaning out our basement. Must keep all my wits about me as I finish up the workbench. Nearly done! Thanks for all the news, from near and far! What a heady concoction!

If not resolved quickly, I'm afraid it can escalate into a major conflict that the US gets pulled into. If so, it would be very, very bad. <b>Lacy</b>, bummer about Josh's strict compartments for things! Someday when you have children, I hope one of them brings you breakfast in bed. My husband never has, either--so don't worry, there's still hope! And, so, you're not all that opinionated about world politics, are you? haha. :-) Yes, it's interesting what makes the news and what doesn't...I always have to find alternate new sources to get to the truth. Good point on underestimating Russia--a huge mistake for sure. Tipper, thank you–and yes, the Russia-Georgia conflict is scary.

Breakfast in bed! I've tried to tell Josh how nice it is to have breakfast in bed and he wants no part. He has strict rules about things being used for their original and intended purpose -- desks for writing, tables for eating, kitchen for cooking, chairs for reading, bed for sleeping. You get the idea. Breakfast in bed breaks all the rules in his world. Sigh. We are not supporting the Olympics. Nope. We do not approve. Beijing actually "cleaned up" their Christians before the start of the Olympics and cleared them out of Beijing and did... well.. we're not sure what they did with them. They've vanished. Now, that hasn't made the news now has it? Why? Because we borrowed more money from China this year. Thank you, Mr. President. We can't very well criticize China when we've borrowed more money from them. Nope. The whole Russia and Georgia thing is very sad. We have underestimated Russia yet again. A HUGE mistake. So sad. Blessings! Lacy What a lovely way to wake up! Breakfast in bed! I’ve tried to tell Josh how nice it is to have breakfast in bed and he wants no part.

I enjoyed watching some gymnastics last night- those guys are amazing! I don't know what hole I have been in, but I did not realize how tense things have gotten between Russia and Georgia. One of my friend's children was adopted from Georgia. What a sweet morning! I have had many a breakfast of egg shells mixed with scrambled eggs, weak tea, and heavily buttered toast- great memories. The pics of them all dressed up were so sweet, but I was wondering where your picture was! It's good to catch up over here, with being away and having company, I have gotten behind.
