    The ball just dropped (about 30 minutes ago)

    It is now 2009.  I watched the ball drop at Times Square.  I went upstairs and took down the 2008 calendar and hung up the 2009 one.  Just think, in 6 months it will be hot again and I can jump in the swimming pool and float around.  I love to float in the water.  In May, school will be out and I think we will take a trip to go out West.  My son wants to go to Legoland in  California.  It will depend on if gas stays at a good price or if it will go up.  We will have a new president.  (Yeah). 
    Today we went to the store.  We stopped at Wal-Mart.  I saw some biscuits in a can, so I put them in the shopping cart.  (They call them "buggies" here, I call them carts.)  I told my husband that for dinner I decided to make biscuits with turkey on them and make mashed potatoes and gravy to pour all over it.  Like an open face sandwich.  We went to the deli counter and I got 1 pound of honey baked turkey.  It took the guy a long time to slice it.  I then saw the pastrami was on sale so I got a pound of that too.  To go with that we got a loaf of pumpernickel rye bread.  We got in line and this lady put her stuff on the counter but left two big cases of soda pop in her cart.  We watched her check out and she never told the checker about the pop.  He didn't look.  She paid for what she did ring up and walked out without paying for the pop at the bottom of her cart.  The checker was a little "slow".  My husband said to the checker "Did you forget to ring up that ladies drinks on the bottom of her cart?"  The guy just looked down at what he was doing and didn't even know what we were talking about.  He then went on to say that he wanted to find an apartment that he could afford so he could move out.  He went on and on about how expensive things were.  Next time I go to Wal-Mart, I am going to get me a case of pop and leave it on my cart and go to his line.........(Not really, but I bet that lady before me will.)
    Happy New Year.

    Happy New Year Connie!! I hope your year is going better than mine. So far this year my house was potentially being robbed. My german shepard barked and they took off. I haven't seen them back so I hope that was the end of that. My neighbors house about 1/2 mile away burned down. She had 5 dogs and cats and she cannot find any cats and 1 dog is missing. I hope they all got out of the house and just ran into the woods. Altho, if that is the case I hope they find their way home soon it got down below 0 here that night. We might get snow today yay! Hope this message finds you and yours happy, healthy and warm. Hugs, Sue~
