FOR SALE: Four arm slings...

....various sizes and for various uses. Somehow they're all the color blue. But I have NO plans for using them anymore, so I've reduced them to ridiculously LOW prices!!!! Don't wait---act today!

Sure is nice to type with two hands! We return to the doctor in three weeks after doing twice daily home exercises, and, if another series of exercises do well later on, I may not have to do P.T. That would be a blessing.

Oh, and I found out today I'm in good company. In the examining room (a different one from where I'm usually...), there's an autographed picture of none other than Nadia Comaneci!! If she trusts him, no wonder I had no reservations.....

The grass is mowed (good work Mom!) except for the one strip left to do when the mower ran out of gas....so the front yard has a temporary mohawk, who cares? At least it's dried out enough to be able to mow! By the way, anyone know what to do w/a neighbor who consistently NEVER mows their grass? The county ordinance says you can't complain until it's a foot high, and we have no covenant agreement in this subdivision. PLUS, behind her fence, between her house and the house behind her, it hasn't been cut now in years, the weeds (trees?!?!?) are higher than the fence, and God knows what's living in there, just feet from where my children play. There's got to be something that can be done......

Work is wild---with University of Virginia and University of Richmond football broadcasts coming soon, commercials are coming in by the bushel. Add that to all the other changes (Less is More), and it's an interesting time. This will be a busy next three days, followed by an enjoyable sleep-in Saturday morning! :)

We did have a classic line in a commercial script sent in by a client today. I assure you, it did NOT make the final production.

"This sale is a sale on all merchandise in stock."

Just ponder the first five words, and thank the Redundancy Department of Redundancy for their support.

MUSIC: Linda Ronstadt's Greatest Hits, Volume Two

SONGS: I Can't Let Go, Poor Poor Pitiful Me, and Someone To Lay Down Beside Me

TOMORROW'S HEADLINE: John Edwards says if Bush doesn't get the Swift Ads off the air, he'll point his finger and threaten him even a third time!

Is it me, or is John Edwards like the one parent sitting in the stands at your son's little league that you NEVER wanted to start talking to, because, well, the conversation would still be going on three hours after the game....and you had only spoken five words, and 22 "but"'s........while he took care of the rest.

He certainly doesn't look like a threat in a game of Red Rover.
