9:31 p.m. - Sunday, Feb. 29, 2004 I however did call Joyce to see if someone was going to see Mom today and she said her kids were going down and Dad would be there, so I don�t feel quite so guilty for not being there. I hope she has a good day. Well enough of the whining,, in other news�. The sun has shone it�s face here almost all week long. It has been nice and pretty, with temps in the mid to upper 30�s. This has done my Funk some good. I feel more like myself and can deal a bit better with things, big and small alike. I am able to totally ignore the things my sister says to me.. and not really care what the rest of my siblings do, they will have the regrets not me. It has taken me all day to write this entry, well 12 hrs. I have had this Feb. Funk interfering with my ability to think and stay focused, the bad writing is just normal. Good news today though, Mom will most likely be going home tomorrow, if the infectious disease doc OK�s it. She sounds good, I woke her up though didn�t mean to but I did. OOPS� I should have called her earlier. I didn�t go down today because more people go to visit on Sunday. She does want me to go down in the morning, so I will go as soon as the kids get on the bus. This will be great, I hope she keeps feeling good. Enough of that daily drivel, I have had some thoughts on this whole same-sex marriage thing. First of all I don�t listen to the news. I only hear bits and pieces and read what people write in their journals. I have my own views on the whole gay/lesbian issue, but they are that just views. I don�t approve and think it is right, but that is just my opinion. However in my observation there is one rule that the politicians live by and that is�. Whoever has the gold; makes the rules! If there are enough rich people that support this it will happen, if there are more rich people voicing their opinions against it won�t happen. It is the same with anything really. The bottom line is the politicians listen to the people who give them money for their campaigns which is how they get elected, then in turn they listen to them with a bigger ear than those who don�t, so unless it is a vote thing and something the general public cares enough about to get off their lazy butts and vote it isn�t what the �people� want it is what the people with money want. Gives whole new meaning to putting your money where your mouth is. As Forrest would say, �and that�s all I have to say about that.� On that note, I am heading off to bed since I have a sinus headache and have an early morning again tomorrow.
