ok, so i am listening to bob dylan singing forever young with bruce springstein......that song always makes me cry.......i have to take scw back into town soon.......then help ccw with her spelling......then watch the french movie i bought....the closet...with daniel autiel...it is supposed to be in french with english subtitles.....but i have my doubts as the cover is all in english.......i heard on the news this morning that the french are seeing a major dip in wine sales, and that they are blaming the boycott of french products because of the war....i think not.....i blame the aussies......they are going great guns with wine promotions...we have mostly aussie, new zealand, and oregonian wines on our list...just a few from france or california.......because the price and taste match up just fine and dandy.....the french outpriced themselves on many things years ago.......i guess they had a captive market......even the success of california vineyards did not cause the french to back off too much on price.....maybe the aussies will..........

ok, so it is official, i have been blogging for over 1 year...almost daily........i still enjoy it.....maybe not as much when i realize that i self-censor for fear of hurting feelings.....but i self-censor in most aspects of my life......it was only my late mother-in-law who never saw the need to watch what she said....she had no un-uttered thoughts......but then, i do not remember most of the things she said to me in a positive light.....i would hate to think that those who read this blog would remember what i had to say negatively........
