Good morning 2U2 Blue. Some Techride petstocks are up right now and the only nabobs newsblubbering negativity I saw was the phrase "fools rally" in a few places and come to think of it they got that one right, either Trade It For Some New or Hold On Tight Shake Shake Shake. It's nice to see the market seek a new level now and there's plenty room for everyone to make money walking on Wall Street however they like to take their steps.
I will continue to be thankful for Mrs. Blue's continued healing in my prayers and glad to hear you're holding up. I hope and trust that this new ordeal will lead to relief and good news for you as one did for me lately.... I've been under stress lately too, nothing serious like yours but you know how Moms are. My teenage daughter failed most of her hs grades for the first part of the year. After 3 weeks of uncertainty and meetings with teachers, child study team, etc. (& a few not-so-nice thin-lipped pedagogical martinets made it an ordeal for us both) she started mornings at Alternative School and afternoons back at the high school this Tuesday. And so what a great surprise - for three days now I've picked up a lighthearted happy girl after school instead of the nervous cranky she's been at that time for a few years. A fait accompli!
She told me she looks forward to going to school now, like when she was little. To hear that makes me so happy!
So this program is working out well for her, it's like a one room schoolhouse where they do the work independently and unregimented at their own pace.
The misbehavior and chaos is gone from the classroom here and she likes it very much. To her the most awesome thing about it is the pot of decaf coffee that's there for the kids as well as the teachers.
Yes it's the little things in life that count; like ATT; the parts can add up to more than the sum of the whole. A little stress reliever sure can go a long way.
I thought of a few more ....
1) Techride Special - Buy some shares whatthehell of whichever Prime #1 Overpriced 909er Internet Stock you've wanted to get for awhile now Today at whatever price it's at who cares push the button, and gladly pay them Tuesday (figure out what to sell for it then at settlement) or even let it hang on margin for a couple of days if the market keeps going up and so what, you deserve it!!! Wheeeeeeeeeee.
2)Then take squeaky toys along & dare to disrupt the peace of nature on that quiet walk in the woods with them yeller dogs might be fun. I bet your pets know how to make you laugh when given the equipment.
3)Returning to civilization a big music store like Tower Records just might have a bigbucks boxed set or two with some favorite great and even previously unreleased music and you'll never know if you don't browse there looking for a treat. If you both pick one out, listening for the first time, an interesting rec room game for points could be invented maybe called Battle Of The Bands Played For Consequences...
Here's trusting for a happy pattern and happy trails holding true for you and Mrs. Blue...
Joanie

Pals just noticed me talking to myself well you know what they say about folks who do that.
Maybe the time has come to start collecting more cats and keep notes on how long it takes for my hair to snaggle into how many knots.
:o)
