Just Saying "Hi."



Update

I was reminded today that it has been awhile since I last updated this site. Unfortunately, work has gotten in the way of everything. Summer Associate season is getting ready to be in full swing, which means that I am going to be even busier.


Ed has spent the last week in Ohio fixing the house. The realtor was showing it and found water in the basement. So, Ed took the week off of work and drove off last Sunday. We are hoping to have him back home today. He has been very busy and has gotten quite a bit done.


Justice and I have just been hanging out, taking walks, baking, and watching television. I recently made whole wheat strawberry scones, chicken & dumplings and peanut butter chocolate chip biscotti.


It has been cold the last couple of days, but it is so much better than the 90 degree humidity.

Right to Free Speech

I am going to exercise my right to free speech. If I offend, I am sorry, but I am learning I have to say what is in my heart, or it just eats at me.

So, we buried Osama bin Laden at sea. Why? To respect the traditions of Islam. Are you freaking kidding me???!!! I understand that our country was founded on the premise of freedom of religion. I understand that we should be better than those that condemn us because of our religious beliefs. Unfortunately, my heart can not stand by it. He did nothing but kill and torture and terrorize because of his "beliefs." For that reason, I cannot stand behind our President and his decision to respect bin Laden's beliefs & traditions. It makes me sick that we are so tolerant. We lost thousands of innocent people and service men & women who sacrificed their lives. Yet, we try to be respectful of the one person who was behind all this death.

San Francisco

I had a blast in San Francisco. I took way too many pictures, most of them are on facebook. Here are a few of my favorites:





















They went to the game...

And, all I got was this lousy t-shirt.
