This Morning

posted by:

Do you ever wake up before the alarm clock goes off? For some reason I woke up about 10 minutes before my alarm was supposed to ring. I laid there for a moment and then decided to get on up and get an early start to my day. I was able to take my time eating breakfast and getting dressed. I feel really good about starting my day without rushing around. I hope the rest of the day is as good as my morning!

Sounds like a good idea to me

On Tuesday, the Senate health committee voted 12-11 in favor of a two-page amendment courtesy of Republican Tom Coburn that would require all Members and their staffs to enroll in any new government-run health plan. It took me less than a minute to sign up to require our congressmen and senators to drink at the same trough! Three cheers for Congressman John Fleming of Louisiana !

Congressman John Fleming (Louisiana physician) has proposed an amendment that would require congressmen and senators to take the same health care plan they force on us (under proposed legislation they are curiously exempt).

Congressman Fleming is encouraging people to go on his Website and sign his petition (very simple – just first, last and email). I have immediately done just that at:  http://fleming.house.gov/index.html.  Please urge as many people as you can to do the same!

If Congress forces this on the American people, the Congressmen should have to accept the same level of health care for themselves and their families.

My grandparents are getting older

I have a hard time admitting that my grandparents are getting older, ya know.  I still see them as I did as a child.  One thing I’m very happy about is they’re redoing one of their bathrooms with one of those walk-in bathtubs.   My grandfather is getting up in age and my grandmother has bad knees so it’s hard for both of them to step into their other tub.

There are several models of walk-in tubs for them to choose from too.  I had no idea there were as many as there are but I was sure glad to see that.  In fact, on that web site I found many links and resources for the elderly and disabled that I was totally unaware of.  I guess things like that don’t get your attention unless you know of someone personally in need of resources like that.  It’s a great service they provide for the elderly and disabled I think.  I know I was glad to see them to help out my grandparents.

What a shame

I watched the Barbara Walters special last night with Patrick Swayze and his wife Lisa Niemi.  The great love they have was totally obvious.  Now she faces the rest of her life without him.  What a shame.  They both were such amazing dancers too.  Here’s to your love Patrick and Lisa.  May God be with you through this great loss in your life.

I have to have one of these!

Here I have racks for wine glasses and a wine rack in my kitchen and it suddenly dawned on me, I don’t have a proper wine opener.  Well I just can’t have just any old cork screw.  I want a Rogar estate wine opener.   They make a statement like the rest of my kitchen does.  You have got to see them.   Rogar wine openers are as special as your own individuality.

I found them online by shear accident and boy and I glad I did too.  I was searching for a champagne wine opener and that’s when I found them.  I had no idea what-so-ever that anyone made such beautiful openers.  Have you ever seen an estate wine opener?  You really should check them out because they are beautiful.  Rogar corkscrews make your wine taste more expensive simply with their beauty.
