"It's quiet, sir.......TOO quiet."

YAWN!

OK, yesterday was probably partially my fault.  Didn't get a whole lot done as I was allowing our current predicament to much power over me.  I can be a worrier at times, and these are one of those times!  The perpetual mulling over the "could have beens" and "should of haves" while at the same time trying to concoct plan b-f and so forth.  In the end I hardly got a darn thing done!  Now mind you, not ALL my doing, oh no!  Had many folks in yesterday with their own interesting stories to tell and in turn they heard mine.  I do thank them for their words of support and in some cases pledges of assistance.  A very kind gesture in deed!  I know some folks like to help anonymously, but in this case (no names) I'd like to state that everyone needs to patronize "Flanagan's Pub" downtown Dunedin on Main Street because a certain gentleman you'll meet there is a very compassionate soul!  A tip O' the hat to you sir! 

Now most people think their kids are special, but I really have to take the spotlight here and give my kids some credit.  Obviously Angi and I are a little on edge over this whole situation and as much as we try and suppress it, they ain't no dummies!  Instead of whining and complaining about things last night they took it upon themselves to so their utmost to help divert our lamenting.  When I got home the house was in a slight disarray (although nowhere near as bad as usual, Angi has been diligently riding shotgun when it comes to keeping everything up lately.) and when I mentioned clean up, without complaint they shut off the TV, got up and within ten minuets everything was done.  Then to top it off, Rozy pulled out a game she got for her birthday "Headbandz" and insisted I sit down with them before dinner and play.  Honestly, it was the best medicine I could have asked for!  And they didn't fight ONCE during the game!  I think that was a first.  Of course, after dinner Rozy challenged me to a game "My Little Pony, Memory" and seriously trounced me.  "Memory" is NOT my forte.  Of course, once over and all little guys in bed, Angi, the older boys and I sat down to watch "Expendables 2" and see things get blown up and bad guys killed.  There's a certain level of satisfaction in that, too.  And Boy, did Jean Claude Van Damme miss his true calling!  He should always play villains! 

So today, I will try and shed all the bad Mojo and get some work done!
