WORK, Work, work......

It seems all we can do anymore is work! Big R has been going in at 6am and working until almost 10pm every day since the storms blew through from Hurricanes Ike and Gustav. He's worn out and so am I. It totally disrupts our lives. We have almost no communication...a quick bye in the morning before he leaves, maybe fifteen minutes of visiting before time to go to bed at night. It sucks!

Everyone always tells us to just look at all the money he's making. Well, let me tell you, money ain't everything! Besides, "Uncle Sam" will get most of it. Seems like the more he makes, the more the government takes! And besides, all the money in the world means very little if you don't have time to enjoy it.

As for me, I'm still playing "catch up" from when I was off with father-in-law's surgery. It's slowly getting back to normal. Thank goodness we haven't been real busy, so that's made it easier.

I sometimes wonder what it would be like to win the lottery, or hit the jackpot, or if Publisher's Clearing House came to my door with a million dollar check. Hey....I can always dream!!!!
