Good morning all. I've been outside to put out the garbage and it's hot and humid already at 9am. They predict 90 today but since it's already 80 they may be a bit off. Peter is having a friend overnight tomorrow so has actually volunteered to help me clean today. I almost fainted. It needs to be done regardless and I told him I cant do it all myself anymore. It's too hot to go outside and do much today so I have him trapped, though he's still sleeping. I do hope we can take the dog to the lake later and let her wade around a bit.

I opened up the news and found nothing cheery so I'm wondering if I should read it at all anymore. After the two articles this weekend I should know better. This time a father was at the local amusement part with his wife and daughter. When some guy went buy and slapped his daughter on the behind, the father admonished him. The guy called over his 7 friends and they beat the father severely.

"In the fight that followed, the father received a broken right orbital (the facial bones around the eye), cuts to his face and arms, and possible subdural bleeding between his skull and brain, according to police." Apparently they took turns stomping on his face while the wife watched. They have all been arrested and since the entire episode was witnessed they are screwed. What the heck is wrong with people. These are 19 and 20 year olds. There is no word about how the father is doing.

Oh I think I promised I wouldn't post any articles so sorry. That one just caught my eye. I'm going to do a little blog reading now before I start the housework. Hope you all have a nice day.
