I was just about to bring it over myself. :-)

I must go gang, I get to go to the opening of The Power Puff Girl Movie!

So have a great day all! See you soon.

Gotta link something HLL has posted, What is an American?

Bye, Betty. Have fun.

I'm off to Tennessee for the holiday.

If I see Tipper, I'll...well, let's hope I don't run into the Goreskis.

The kids are chanting, "We're off to Grandma's house, we're off to Grandma's house...!"

LOL! Have a safe 4th, everyone!

Hello all. I am taking action on my electricity woes. My power went out again last night at 8:15 pm. I immediately called the power company and spoke to a live human being. I asked what the problem was and why I can't expect to have electricity in my home 24 hours a day.

She said that the lines can't handle it when people come home from work on a hot night. I told her that they should expect people to come home from work and to plan accordingly. I am not going to put up with their crap anymore. I sat in a 96 degree pitch black house and have to have people call me to wake me up so I can go to my office. Normally I would be working out of my home office, but since it's in total darkness and I have no power for my computers, it kind of cramps my style.

This weekend I will be walking my neighborhood with a petition to keep the power on. I have also acquired the CEO of Detroit Edison's home phone. If my power goes off, he is going to get a personal call from me. I will do it daily until I have power. If I go to jail, at least I will have lights and air conditioning.

I will also send him these half cooked lemon poppyseed muffins that never stood a chance when the lights went out.

Pray for the power this weekend. It's a scrorcher, and frankly, I think it's making me ill. I can't sleep at night due to this heat and I can't eat with rotting food and no stove.
