Big-Tooled Burly Men in Boots from the Clear Blue Sky!

Big-Tooled Burly Men in Boots from the Clear Blue Sky!

Beautiful bright day. Husband in suit. Coffee in kitchen. Crash outside. Chinaberry tree on car. Husband in van, wife on cell, burly men in boots --with big tools! -- coming, no doubt followed by even bigger bills.

I shouldn't have started blogging about storms and what's it's like to get hit out of the clear blue sky on a beautiful day! If I belonged in that mystical-superstitious majority meme, I might take this as a sign to shut up. But I don't and I won't, so none of us will get off that easily.
Smiling

Still, I think I'll choose to take it as some sort of sign, a reminder at least. You just never, never know what you'll wake up to each day. Florida IS Cirque du Soleil - Circus of the Sun. We need a petition drive down here, to confiscate the name and get our official state motto changed. . .

Wanted to add essays that connect

In my mind at least -- today is another chapter of this and also this, in case they didn't come through in the text, and also connects to the school-survival blogging here and here.

Your petition

I'll sign it! Smiling

Although I am teaching the children to say they are from somewhere else. Anywhere else! Smiling

Airzona may be the only state in America where mothers can't tell their children that someday they can grow up to be President.
