This morning started like every other morning. Turn off alarm, wake up kids, fix husbands thermos, check on kids, let dogs out, fix husband glass of tea, tell son to brush teethe and hair, make coffee, check on daughter, pour up tea to go in the fridge, fix cup of coffee, put on water for new pitcher of tea(we have two gallons at all times in Fridge), straighten blankets on bed, get dressed, get a sip of coffee, finish making the tea, fix or get kids breakfast, breakfast drink, or breakfast bar, get kids in car, kiss husband goodbye, let dogs back in, and take kids to school. And all of this takes place between 7-7:30am. Yep that all happens every Mon-Fri.
Today was a little different. One of the dogs peed on the kitchen floor. While I was still half asleep all I could think was, I need to bleach that spot. Without thinking I just poured the bleach straight on the pee. I heard the fizzy sound and ok, now I am awake. Ammonia and Chlorine do not mix well, to say the least. The smell and the fumes had me catching my breath and even after several hours of doors being opened, fresh air coming in and many rinsings there is still a bleachy smell and weird taste in my mouth. I may have to rearrange my morning routine and make the coffee first. Or just get up a little earlier. No, not getting up earlier. May just buy some face masks.

How Does He Do It?
Obama again people. I didn't draw a red line. The nation drew a red line. The world drew a red line. How in the hell can he make such a statement when there is video evidence that he did in fact say it? How is it that seemingly intelligent educated people believe him and even support and defend him? He opens his mouth and we know the lies are coming but some just can't help being sucked in. I know I can not change the minds of the 10's of millions of people that legitimately and legally voted for him, however, they all need to wake the hell up and take off the kool-aid blinders.
For some, their quality of life is better because of him. Where I live the quality of lives are the same or getting worse. The lack of full time work, increasing food costs, rising utility bills, gas prices and lack of affordable heath care are creating a vicious cycle of non recovery.
Obama just keeps saying the same things. The economy is improving, health care is affordable, the housing market is improving, unemployment is going down, and my favorite, yet unspoken, I am a king. All lies if you look around my town. No one I know is thriving financially. Businesses are still closing. The cost of starting a new business is ridiculous. Pay check to pay check is the main way of life here and the checks are getting smaller and the cost of living is going up. Here in the Fl panhandle people are struggling to stay afloat and I am referring to the hard working people of our town, not the ones that have been living off government assistance for years and now believe it is a career option.
How has Obama helped? Please, if your life has improved because of Obama's choices and decisions, if something he did has helped you improve your life, please tell me. Right now I feel we still have no hope and lots of change and I would really like to know How is your life better.

Education of a Murderer
Diane Downs is in prison for the murder of her daughter and the attempted murder of her other two children. Recently she earned her AA in General Studies. I am confused because she is in prison and should be entitled to nothing. My student debt is over $7000 right now and that is after I have been paying it down for 6 years. Who paid for her education? I am sure she is not the only one. So who pays?
The government and state. She is one of tens of thousands of criminals that benefit in some way for their crimes. Education, Therapy, Medical care, Housing. Some criminals live better than the working poor. That is wrong on so many levels. I just feel sick.
Why are prisoners entitled to any luxury? They deserve only the minimum to survive. Instead they have perks and earn special priveleges. They have cigarettes and drugs. They get internet access and cable TV. Some prisons are air conditioned and prisoners have access to state of the art gym equiptment. Why?

Is it campaigning
Obama on the road. He is the President right now, but it seems he is also campaigning. On our tax dollars. I get that he has to set himself up for the next election, but it is shameful that he is right now using tax dollars to take road trips and speak out against the Republican party.
As President, he is obligated to support both parties equally to decide what is best for the American people. He is supposed to be impartial in these matters. Weighing both sides of the issues and finding compromises that fit our needs.
Obama is an agenda HO. The Dem's are the good guys and the Reps are the evil bully's. He is not willing to compromise or find a common ground. His lack of experience in Government and Leadership is showing and at the moment, We the People are stuck with him. He does just enough to keep his job but nothing grand to prove he deserves the job. If his job security depended on performance reviews he would be out of work by now, but the President is above this. Unfortunate.

Obama...Blah,Blah,Blah
$300Billion for Jobs. What can Obama really do? Tax credits for companies to temporarily hire people and extend the unemployment benefits.
What we need is higher taxes on companies that out-source to foreign countries and more fines and fees for companies that use illegal aliens for slave wages. Start a new buy American campaign and send all tax payers $25,000 to dump into the economy. Encourage banks to work with people on a managable level to pay their mortgages. Low interest business loans for small businessess in rural areas so they can stay open and hire workers. Their are plenty of ways to help Americans with out dumping Billons of dollars back into the pockets of big businesses. Dig deeper Obama. I know pulling your head out of your ass with ears that big won't be easy but give it a try. We Americans would really appreciate it.

My blogging mistake
I have random thoughts like everyone else. I was hoping to express myself in an intelligent manner and perhaps make a difference in someones life. That just isn't me. I am sarcastic and funny. I try to find the humor in most things and sometimes I am just mean. Mean just for sake of being mean. Mean, just for the sake of being funny. Sometimes I am sympathetic to the plight of humanity, but most times I don't feel sorry for anyone but children. My life has it's own issues and I have an entire family I intend to write about without pity or concern for their feelings. I am going to use this blog for my own therapy and I hope some of you can relate and maybe, just maybe we can all help each other out.
