QUICK VENT






 For at least the past few weeks I pass through a construction zone on the way to and from work.  They have one of these signs posted.  This sign backs traffic up something awful sometimes.  It is just crazy because when you get to the actual bump...  it is only 2 inches at the most deep. It really is an area where they have stripped the pavement down about 2 inches. We have potholes worst that this area.   I end up behind SUVs and trucks of all shapes and sizes and they stop to creep over this area like they are rolling into a black hole.  You can clearly see the deep of the area and that is it a nice and neat area .. it is just a bump.  People don't even slow down that slow for speed bumps which are far worst that this area.  All these SUVs and trucks are supposed to be able to handle a bump at speed faster that 1-2 mph.  They slow me down EVERY morning fooling with this bump. Needless to say I roll right over it like it is not even there in my car.  :)

SPECIAL DELIVERY

Look what came in my mail yesterday!!! 

The African Americans: Many Rivers to Cross DVD - shopPBS.org

I even ordered a copy for my daddy.  He got his a couple of days ago,  I very sure he will just love it because he loves black history documentaries.  In my opinion this is one of the best collections if not the best.

If you did not catch it when it was on tv ....check it out.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!




This year I had the most low key holiday season.  I did not host my mom's side Christmas dinner. Nor did I put up a single Christmas decoration.  I did spend more on gifts this year because I did not do much advance shopping.  Almost all my shopping was done online. 

Well looking forward to this new year, hopefully I will spend less of the year sick or having health issues.  In 2014, there are several areas that I will try to work on.

1. Finances - Need to save more money

2. Health -  Will have a surgery done first part of the year.  Stay on top of my health.

3. Eat better

4. Go see and ride Felix on a more regular basis

5. Work on house
