I finally went back to work on Wednesday. It was a struggle, but I made it through. Today was marginally better; so as you can see, I'm making a gradual transition back to health. Still getting used to the Doogie Howserness of writing a blog about my thoughts.

I actually did help out a bit while I was infirmed; dishes, vaccuum, picked-up, trash, clean counters, and even cooked a couple of times. Ellice seemed rather appreciative of my efforts.

Ellice's parents were disappointed this past weekend, as we were unable to visit, but they gave me assurances that they understood that I needed the rest. They came down yesterday afternoon, saw Ellice's school and went with us to Red Lobster. Great food as always. We capped off the evening with a rousing game of spades. In case you are wondering, the Gulletts won.


News of the Day:
Turns out Jon Benet Ramsey's parents didn't kill her. Hmmm. Guess we all made a rush to judgment on that one. Let me publicly apologize to her deceased mother for accusing her unjustly. Do you believe that Jon Benet was killed about 10 years ago? She would have been 16 years old now. Time flies.

Further thoughts?
We are rapidly running out of Friends episodes and Cheers;
Israel acquiesced too early to the UN;

Finally, a tidbit of wisdom:
There is absolutely nothing we can say that will affect the cost of gasoline in any way, so I should just shut up and shell out for whatever price they throw up on the sign with a sigh.
