LIFE IS JUST A BOWL OF FRUIT SALAD.

I HAVEN'T BLOGGED IN 6 MONTHS, SO I DECIDED TO BORE MYSELF AND REMIND MYSELF WHAT I'M DOING THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. WE BACKED OUT OF BUILDING THE TOWNHOUSE BECAUSE THE BUILDER'S CONTRACT WAS SO LOPSIDED AND WE NEEDED TO MAKE 30 CHANGES. IN ADDITION, AFTER 1 YEAR, THEY ONLY PRE-SOLD 2 OUT OF 180. NOT A GOOD SIGN. SO WE CONTINUE TO BE "HOMELESS". AFTER KEEPING OUR SICK CAT ALIVE FOR SIX EXTRA MONTHS, HE LOST THE BATTLE TO KIDNEY DISEASE, AND WE PUT HIM TO SLEEP AT THE AGE OF 5. THREE WEEKS AGO. AFTER A LONG WALK, MY WIFE CAME HOME WITH A WILD IDEA. AFTER TRAVELING WITH A CAT FOR 17 YEARS (WE ALSO HAD ANOTHER FOR 12 YEARS), SHE DECIDED WE SHOULD JUST PACK THE CAR AND GO ON A WANDERING TRIP TO AN AREA WE HAVEN'T YET SEEN. SO ON OCT. 5, WE WILL BE DRIVING TO NEW MEXICO, UP THROUGH COLORADO AND BACK HOME. SHOULD TAKE US ABOUT THREE WEEKS. WHEN I SAY WE WILL BE DRIVING, I SHOULD CLARIFY THAT I WILL BE DRIVING AND MY WIFE WILL BE SIGHT-SEEING.
THEN IT'S BACK HOME FOR THANKSGIVING AND MY DAUGHTER'S 40TH BIRTHDAY. PACK UP AGAIN FOR OUR ANNUAL TREK TO FLORIDA TO ANNOY OUR SON. GOTTA STAY ACTIVE.
LET ME JUST SAY ONE OTHER THING. STEVE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PLEA FOR FUNDS TO KEEP THIS WONDERFUL NETWORK
GOING. WE SHOULD GLADLY SEND IN SOMETHING-WHATEVER IS AFFORDABLE. THERE ARE OVER 6000 MEMBERS AND IF EVERYONE DONATED $2.00/YEAR, THERE WOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM. 'NUFF SAID.
