Yawn

Last night was day 4 of us not spending hours with Alan lying there so he'd go to sleep. He cried a little after Mark left but not long. He still sleeps in the big bed, not his but at least we are getting him into a routine with teethbrushing and stories before bed too. One problem down, a few to go - getting him to clean up his toys and eat with us not in front of the tv :(

Gathered up a bunch of toiletries for hurricane relief. Never realized how many extra shower gels I bought when I sold Avon. I managed to pack 2 7.70 flat rate boxes of various stuff (some bought, some found) - I sent them 2 different places. But I forgot my check for the Red Cross for work (so they match it).

From CNN.COM - something interesting

-- President Bush says he takes responsibility for the federal government's failures in responding to Hurricane Katrina.

Volunteers kicked out - stranded in Missippi?

Politics!

Ok, I admit to being anti-Bush, but not a big fan of political discussions.

However, there appears to be a little "chat" going on under my post about Bush's admission of fault today.

Discuss away, but I'll just be lurking, as I don't like flame wars.
