New House

I love my new house! I thought I wouldn't at first, but I do, right from the start. I'm still learning my lack of kitchen cabinet space and that is reeking havic on where to put things, but other than that, I love my house. It's a quiet neighborhood, and now that I'm ok taking the expressway to and from work, it's an ok drive. Ask me after the winter storms hit and see if I'm still ok with it. I hate driving in the snow and bad weather. Even when I've been there alone during the day and at night, it's not creepy. I'm not hearing noises and seeing things that aren't there. My poor dog though. She's been hitting her "thumbs" on something and they've gotten so raw they've been bleeding. So we're treating those with neosporin and bandages. We still have a lot to put away, and I keep finding pictures to hang or put out. I didn't realize I had so many! It's my obsession though. Different kinds of picture frames, personalized ones, etc. So we're finding places for those. And we added a laundry cabinet to our laundry room, which is basically a walk through from the house to the garage. That's what I'll miss, is laundry space, but we're working on that too. The clock I bought from AZ is hanging above the mantelplace, beautiful. Cost a lot of money that it took 1.5 years to save up for.

I need to create something to let people know our old house is up for rent. We have it pretty much cleaned out and cleaned up, so it's in move in condition. I hope we get good people in there for quite a long time. It would be nice to have the extra income and/or tax breaks for awhile while we adjust to the new costs of the new house. Already I am upset at our current mortgage company. But that is another rant, another day.

OJ Simpson

Well Fox news has completely lost my support. OJ Simpson has gotten away with murder and now trying to write a book saying "if" he killed his ex-wife and her friend, then here's how he would have done it. What a bunch of garbage. He is flaunting the fact that he got away with it to everyone who knows he's guilty. If there are details in that book that only the killer knows and someone originally on the case buys the book, they need to get themselves on the witness stand in the family's civil defense trial and take him for everything he has. The very thought of him and his book makes me sick. What a jerk. I hope he rots in hell someday for that. Let's say he really didn't do it, it is not PC to write a book about it, saying "if" he did it. I will think twice before turning on the Fox network again.

That trial was so botched from the start. Anytime someone that is rich and/or famous is said to have done wrong, the case against them suffers because everyone walks on eggshells and makes sure that the criminals like him are treated with respect and aren't treated like the criminals they are. First sign he's guilty - the white bronco chase scene. Why run if you really didn't do anything wrong? That trial was a joke right from the start.
