A Few Thoughts On Contract Disputes.

Janesville, Milton, Stoughton have all had/are contract disputes.




I am really getting tired of teacher's thinking they should just
get certain benefits.

This is 2008.

Not 1960.

Times have changed and you are going to have to change with
them.

Why should you continue to get the same health benefits as 10 yrs
ago? Everyone is paying more these days. You have better than
most.

You have more perks in your job than most. My brother teaches
so I know what most get.

What I can't believe is all the professional days they get
oh my gosh. Where it's a nice day off for them
paid and maybe they attend a seminar maybe they don't.

I work between 50-60 hrs a week and I don't get summer's off.

I actually have to pay more than I want to for my health
insurance as well, just glad to have it.

I don't get time at Easter or Christmas .

You get professional days, sick days, personal days.
When are you at school?

Yes I ran this argument past my brother. I got the look.

Many people are doing more at work and getting paid
less, glad to have a job.

So quit your whining, or find another job .

Good luck finding the perks you have .

4.00 A Gallon By The Weekend?

That is what I have heard. Gas will be 4.00 a gallon
by the weekend.

I just can not imagine it. How high is it going to go?
This definitely changes how much I will do this summer.

I am a person that loves road trips. That is not
going to be happening.

I will just stay home and mow the grass.

Wait that takes gas, I may need goats.

When Will Hillary Drop?

I am sorry but I am so tired of Hillary Clinton.
Woman or not.

She is very stubborn.
But the the tune of being 20+ million in the hole?

Either I am not hearing much lately about John McCain
or just not paying any attention to anything that old
man is doing. He is probably taking a nap some where.

Why would she keep going on when she is not only
behind in delegates but now super delegates.

If she is looking for ways just to spend money she could send
some my way.

I Am Back.

Well I made it back. It was a sad
trip. I tried to prepare myself for
what ever condition he was going
to be in.

I was still surprised, and saddened
by how much he had changed.

The weight loss, looking very drawn.
But I got to see him and we had a
couple very nice visits.

Thank you to Karen for the very good
idea they loved it.

The last time I visited with him when
I got ready to leave I kept looking back
at him and saying I will call you soon.

You take care. Was I ought of my mind
or what saying - you take care. If only
he could.

The Sad Trip

Well I am getting ready to make the saddest trip, I have ever
made. I am going out to California for a few days this week to
see my friend Tom who is dying from Liver cancer.

I thought about it a lot last weekend , knowing that if I wait
too long to go it will be to late.

I am not a person that deals with living with the ' what if'
in life. I like to know that I did all I could do. No regrets.

I went into work on Monday and asked very nicely for
sometime off explaining the situation. I was quite
surprised to be asked " How soon do you need to go."

I told them that I would like to go this next week.
As we are putting the finishing touches on a
project that was due and I needed to get that done
before I went.

I could have taken it with me, but that would have
just not worked out as well.

They had no problem with me going.

I am grateful.


I have been spending a good part of this week crying,
questioning a lot of things.

I am trying to pull myself together I don't want to
go out there to visit him and do nothing but
cry.

It does not seem fair, worked hard all his life.
Paid his bills, sent his kids to college, saved
his money so he could retire comfortably and now
his time is being cut short.

I don't understand.

I know it will be the last time I see him.

Mommy Kitty Update

Mommy Kitty Updates

I wanted to let people know I have
decided to keep the mommy kitty.

She is cute. So scared though.

The lady from the rescue came out and helped
me live trap her. I now, have her in my shed,
the good shed. She can't get out and I think
she is starting to like me.

She does not growl at me anymore like she
could scratch my eyes out given the chance.

She knows I am the one that feeds her.

She is safe, warm and dry. She does not
have to worry about food or other cats or
animals.

My dog who I was so worried about what he
would do, seems to careless.

After the kittens are born and old enough to
go to homes, I will get her fixed.

The lady from the rescue was right , I may want
a cat or two out here.

I will post pictures when there are kittens.

The Little Guy

Well Guam is voting today .

Four delegates at stake.

Obama is leading at this point.

Never over look the importance
of the little guy.

I Like This Blog

I found a real fun blog. Since I grew up in the 80's.
I, find I miss a lot of the music from the 80's as strange
as it was sometimes.

This is just a fun blog. Sharing things and music
information that a lot of people enjoy.
