What's up with Whatsit

Good morning

I-55 southbound was solidly jammed with traffic this morning. Everybody on the earth is trying to go back home from where they evacuated from Gustav. Good thing I travel north to work, but I'll find another route home. Now I wonder what Hannah, Ike, and Josephine are going to do.

My mother told me not to come to the hospital yesterday because all of Buddy's relatives were there, and the little hospital room was full. She called later and sounded relieved that everybody had left, although two were coming back so stay with her. Thank goodness she's been able to sleep up there at the hospital. She's been letting whoever else was up there sit up with Buddy at night while she rests.

I got to spend a couple of hours at home last night before going to spend the night with my grandmother. It was nice.

The sun has come out, finally.

My hair looks better. Probably because I stuck it in a clip right on top of my head.

I decided to come up with something to keep myself occupied while I'm staying with my grandmother, so I'm cross stitching. My mother taught me how when I was little. I hadn't done it in years, but about a year ago I had a wild hair to take it up again, so I bought all the stuff. I decided to do my principal a Christmas present - heh heh, a little money in the bank won't hurt, plus it's very therapeutic. Just sitting and watching TV can get boring sometimes.

My grandmother likes to watch America's Got Talent. I had never seen it before. I'm prejudiced against all the current shows. I think they're kind of dumb. I wish something like Carol Burnett would come on, although that's not really in vogue now.

I watched Sarah Palin give her speech last night. I like her a lot better than I do . . . well, ANY of the rest of them, if you want to know the truth. I like the fact that she sent the Governor's personal chef home and put the Executive Jet Plane on E-bay to save the taxpayers money.

I have to go get ready for students. Y'all have a good day.
