A friend of mine posted this video to Facebook a couple days ago, and it’s so good I just had to post it here tonight.
When it comes to telling a story, or expressing a particular viewpoint, John Denver was one of the best songwriters in history. This video is from his performance in Russia. He was right at the time, and he’s right now. It’s about time.

As you can see, I got the new theme uploaded and installed earlier today. Well, it’s yesterday now, as I sit here looking at the clock and I realize that it’s after 2:30 in the morning.
Besides running behind schedule most of the evening, we had a very productive day. It all started when we went to the bank to deposit the expense check. Once we got done at the bank we ran over to the senior community to deliver some brochures and ads for Gidget’s new alterations business. We stopped in to see my mom for a few minutes (Hi Mom) and then we came back home so Gidget could place an order for some threads and other supplies she needs in order to start doing business.
Over the past couple years we have invested, albeit slowly, to get her alterations and sewing business going and it’s all coming to fruition now. We couldn’t have planned it any better. She has all the machines she needs, and most of the equipment. There are a few other things she would like to have, but they will have to wait til she starts making some money. It won’t be much longer before she’ll be ready to take customer orders and begin her daily routine of working in the sweat shop (aka the freezer known as our basement).
While she placed her order with the thread company, I checked in with all my online job sites and found five more jobs to apply for today. That was a surprise. I didn’t expect to find so many in such a short time.
