Friday night, one more day to the end of 4 weeks

Ok, so today was a good day. I've had better, but I am dealing with recent events that have been very painful. I've decided that it just isn't going to be a subject for discussion beyond the walla of my home, with my wife. It's not worth the hurt or the misrepresentation and misunderstanding. It's been put out for public viewing and I came out the jerk due to the way it was written. I find it rather manipulative, but, for me, it is now a closed subject, I will move on and consider any damage done to be water under the bridge and let it go. I will, however, expect that my feelings and my opinions will be respected, even if they aren't agreed with. We should all be able to agree to disagree. Isn't that part of life?

It's Friday night. I generally watch Ghost Whisperer, but tonight I recorded it. I will watch it before the night is done. I did watch 3 Wishes and it broought me to tears. 3 Marines who had lost 47 members of their unit in Iraq were granted the wishes of their families. They got new homes. They were shown the appreciation that was due them. One young woman, 2 children, left a widow due to the war, was also given a new home and was given a full ride university scholarship with books, fees and supplies paid as well as tuition! How cool that she was recognized for her loss.

As I left work today, I did a stupid....I'll probably get busted for it on Monday, if not before....it was just one of those days. No too stupid, but still stupid. I'm sure it will be ok. As I get older and my brain gets fuzzier, I do those things sometimes......I react before I think! I'll have to rectify that and not let it happen again. Ah, well, another one of those water under the bridge things!

This is shaping up to be a beautiful weekend. The weather was fantastic today. We are going to the lake with some friends tomorrow afternoon. We will roast hotdogs and make s'mores and just enjoy the company. Tonight I sat on my deck with a fire blazing in the chimenea. It was peaceful and relaxing and quiet. My wife had gone to a bday party for one of the women we work with in scouts. I didn't know it was a jewelry party until she came home and told me she had spent 60 bucks! She did that last week at a candle party. I'm going to have to not let her go to anymore parties! To give her credit, the candle party purchase was a nativity and she collects those. we buy her one every year to add to her collection. She says this one is a nice one, but I have yet to see it. Less than a month and we will have to start putting Chritmas stuff up. We have already begun singing christmas carols at church....ranks right up there with WalMart and the world of retail and getting Christmas stuff on the shelves before Halloween is even gone!

Well, I'm off to the basement to watch Ghost Whisperer. I hope it's a good one. They have all been pretty good so far.

Good night.
