The Lurching American Economy, Political Cartoons

Image via Wikipedia

From Denny: The world economy is a mess and about to get messier with Japan in distress from their latest earthquake, tsunami, nuclear disaster trifecta. Well, the good news is that we are all in the same boat, trying to swim the same polluted economic waters. It would help if our governments gave us accurate numbers and quit massaging them to please the financial markets.



The unemployment here in America is supposed to be at 8.8 percent. What a joke. There are millions of people who gave up looking. Those known as The 99ers, whose unemployment benefits ended after 99 weeks, have been unemployed for years now.  Even President Obama says there are hundreds of thousands of people who will never get a job again.  What kind of statement is that from a president?  Not everyone deserves a job in this country?

A Warm Spring Day

Hi Everyone

Happy Monday

Wishing

you could smell the lavender in bloom

in our back yard

sigh

It is a laundry on the line

kind of

Spring day here

The sun is shinning 

and there is just a slight breeze

♥

Doing laundry is so much more

fun, 

~laundry can be fun~

when you get to

hang things up to dry

in the

warm sun 

I like to use vintage wooden 

clothes pins

it is heavenly to smell the 

 lavender

 growing right by the line

filling up the area with a wonderful fragrance



The sheets are next and I can't wait to smell the clean linens on the bed tonight

Did you know the dryer uses the most electricity in your home?

~Grateful~

to have the sun to dry everything today
