Busy day here. Woke up wondering if I was gonna be cutting grass after the wild rain storm we had last nite... decided NOT but needed to do grocery shopping, bill paying at bank and a new script pick-up (federal law = serious narcotics ) and a drop off at the pharmacy.
I dont drive so do all this with dad who is in his mid-70s and starting to lose concentration so Me: Dad dont you want to be in the other lane for the bank? Dad as he turns the wheel: Anyone coming? Me: (silent prayers).
During the day learned two things.
The bank that my parents have most of their money in could possibly be nearing serious problems due to the mortgage crisis. Like a Federal take over...
But even worse - WATERMELON SEASON IS NEARLY OVER :eek:
the depression is gonna get serious now
