I'm not alone...

Hey, girl! I'm sorry you guys are still sick. I missed you this morning and this evening at church. I hope you'll be feeling better soon. Love ya! Beth

Let's make a republic in Iraq. Sounds good doesn't it? Trouble is the people there would rather kill somebody. Just about anybody. Americans are preferred for killing right after Jews. However, if they can't kill anyone else, they will kill each other.

What about killing Saddam Hussain? What about making a democracy? Well, if America will just give us more money and time... Bah.

I think today is a good day to get our troops out of Iraq.

I have a very important job and when I am out of work a lot of people have to do a lot of extra things. I have not missed a day of work in over 10 years because other's depend on me to be there. I do not think a cold of sore throat warrants staying out of work. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. It builds your immune system and also helps other around you build theirs. It might be harder to go to work if you are sick but if you tough it thru maybe your employer will notice and think you are a hard worker and reward you for it. It is also a good idea to not take all your vacation and to work overtime without expecting to be paid. This gives your employer added value to the business and allows the managers to be a little less stressed. Funeral leave is another thing that is abused quite a lot. I've know people to be out a month, 3 days max. Sick children is another one, what are grandparents for?
