Yes, I am becoming the queen of posting lovely, anti-McCain/Palin videos, etc.
Obama/Biden Tax Cut Calculator
Barack Obama and Joe Biden will cut taxes for 95% of working families, and provide at least three times as much tax relief for middle class families as John McCain and Sarah Palin. The Obama/Biden plan provides $1,000 of tax relief for workers and new tax benefits to help families pay for college, childcare and save for retirement.

Getting ready to change my life....
Working on the Quantum Wellness jump-start cleanse. I’m on Day 3. No animal products, no sugar, no caffeine, no gluten, no alcohol. No alcohol is no biggie, since I don’t drink. I’m finding that the gluten part goes MUCH deeper than just avoiding wheat. Seems like EVERYTHING has some kind of gluten in it. The caffeine thing is about killing me at this point - though it has certainly pushed me into bed earlier than I EVER go normally. I fantasize about Coke constantly (I’m truly a Coca Cola ADDICT). Cheese is another thing that is driving me insane.
Honestly, I hope I feel better after cleansing - and hopefully I’ll be a few pounds lighter too!!
Had such high hopes....
Took the 6 yr. old to baseball tryouts this evening. Mostly to let him hit off a pitching machine or a decent pitcher and to maybe learn a thing or two. Apparently baseball isn’t much like soccer (the only team sport I’ve had to deal with YEAR AFTER YEAR of tryouts).
In soccer, they have the kids doing stuff constantly. The more they are playing, the more the coaches see what the kid has got going for them. Apparently that doesn’t hold true in baseball - at least not for the club he went to tonight. Those kids stood around doing NOTHING for about 1 hr. and 50 mins. out of the 2 + hours they were there. I didn’t even stick around for the spiel about the phone calls on team selection, etc.
He is a year younger than these kids, but loves baseball and has been able to hit a pitch (rather than off a tee) since he was about 3 1/2. So I figured this would just be some fun baseball playing in a non-game setting with people who supposedly know how to coach. He had fun, though apparently the other kids called him a midget - I love that it just rolls off his back. It kills me that people with 7 year olds take this crap so seriously! I thought soccer was pretty ridiculous - but I guess it is ALL sports!
