Thank you Thank you Thank you

Thank you to all who have wished me a big welcome to blog-o-matic. I must say it is enjoyable to know that I can download the crazy crap in my head once in a while.

I am still trying to figure out how to get my scanner hooked up properly (thank you MG for the scanner, printer, computer, etc.). Once I have that figured out my sisters, MnMom and Cheesecake Maven will maybe want me to stop blogging.

My schweetie just brought me wine..mmm-my I am a lucky woman. I have posted a few pics of us and I will not go on and on about how much I am in love with him or how we met or the fact that I moved to a subdivision in a way western Chicago burb to be with him or tell you how gooshy we are together because MG and MnMom will make fun of me (again)...but I just have to say that I am so LUCKY AND HAPPY!!!! Hee hee hee hee...
as my schweetie would say, "Spread the Love, baby."

Notice what you notice and then ask why...

So the BIG 3 auto makers want a bailout?? Mmmmm...let's make a short list of those who might be able and are responsible for our current economic woes and see if we might be able to help them out...

1. Bush/Cheney
2. Private Contractors in Iraq. i.e. Halliburton, CICA, Blackwater
3. Mobile/Exxon - who reported HUGE profits in their fourth quarter

I hope that with new leadership comes innovative ideas for the auto industry that will create new jobs and clean up the environment...

What a mess to have to clean up.

Here I am

It is snowing outside, there is a nice pot of Thai Coconut Chicken Soup on the stovetop and there are two 6 year olds screaming at the top of their lungs while jumping from the top step to the bean bag at the bottom...so relaxing.

Gearing up for Thanksgiving...which this year will involve me, my 6 yr old and my boyfriend and his two teenagish boys taking an RV on the road. That's right-Griswolds look out!! Of course the boys are thrilled and already fighting over who gets to sleep over the cab. I will take lots of photos-promise.

In the meantime-here is a photo of the three boys under the giant silver jelly bean (Millenium Park, Chicago).
