Yet another meaninless blog entry. Wife has a cold. Hope I don't get it. Weather warmed up, though. Hope we get some rain. Roofer says no roof leak, but condensation on the air duct in attic, so spot on ceiling. Oh well. Dems couldn't get the lady elected in Mass. to fill Teddy's senate seat. Pretty pathetic. We should have run a Kennedy kid, even if we had to twist some arms. Typical Democratic pathetic politics - always have to be inclusive, always respect local political people, etc. However, we still have a big majority - will see how clever Nancy and the gang can be, to get something passed healthcare wise. Don't know anyone who doesn't hat the insurance companies and their swindles.

My mother is having a birthday on February 3, will be 89. Shes in good shape, considering - some problems walking, and not much stamina -can't hear on the phone. Dad says her memory isn't what it was. Dad is in good shape, for his age, as well - still drives, although he says his eyes somewhat fuzzy. He's 86. They live in central Pa., in their old hometown (and mine). Wish I could see them more.

Hey, all you hep cats out there. No posts to this blog in quite awhile - is that a bad thing, or a good thing? Depends on if you appreciate my scrawls. Christmas came and went without much ado. Got to see my daughter and grandkids (Johanna 12, Meghan 7), for a few days, so that was nice. Sue was sad we didn't get to see grandma, who as you will recall is up in Anderson, SC, with Jim. She's worried ma is forgetting who she is. However, at end of their daily phone calls, she always says, "say hello to Bill", so at least she remembers who Sue lives with. Gets confused, however as to geography -thinks we live up north, not in Florida. She's not bad for 86, I guess.
