It's not often I get to be informed and entertained at the same time. this atricle has me worried about Obama's pick for VP. If this is who he picked for his runnung mate, what's he going to do in the white house?

Thanks michelle.
Still Catholic and proud of it. Don't have a lot of rants like my dad, the ignorant redneck. Love being a wife and mother and have known that was my calling since I was 10 yrs old.

PHARMACIST WITHIN RIGHTS
I checked online this morning to what's going on in the world and Yahoo has this article as one of it's highlighted news pieces.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081021/ap_on_re_us/no_contraceptives_pharmacy
Now, I know that all those pro choice groups out there are really pissed off about it. I AM NOT. As a matter matter of fact the pharmacist is completely within there professional rights to refuse to fill any prescription or even to transfer a prescription. The same law applies in Indiana as well, possibly Kentucky also. I wish it applied to the technicians as well.
I think it is wrong for any court to undermine the law stating such. I say this on the grounds that a pharmacists job is to also check for drug interactions. If they undermine and/or overturn the law stating that they can refuse to fill or transfer a prescription that will lessen thier abilty to perform their duties(even if it's just because somene wants to get contraceptives) it will endanger lives. People will use the results on more than just birth control and the morning after pill, and the Plan B contraceptive.
These pro abortion groups should not try to overturn these laws. The publics health will be greatly affected.
In another point, the pharmacies owner can choose to sell whatever they like. If they don't want to sell soda, since they carry health products this is understandable, they don't have to. If they don't want to carry a specific drug or item in their store, they don't have to. The owner's products of choice on the shelf are not selected by any group of persons, just the owner. The manager agrees with the owners decisions, this means the manager is happy with his job and enjoys working there. NOw, wouldn't we all like to have a job we enjoyed having and going to every morning?

Greetings to everyone!
It's been a while. So long that the grin and bouncer climbed out of the play pen.
The uber toddler has developed worse tantrums and cutting remarks all her own and the super drooler(youngest) can speaks with two words together. They grow up so fast.
Well, it turns out that the mouse that found th chinks in my armor so many months ago wa the first of a few. We are trying new forms of bait as they seem to be learning. One didn't learn fast enough and found the wrong end of my hammer in this corner cabinet with a lazy-susan. I hate that cabinet most days, but it's great for disorienting mice and then bashing them since they skipped over the traps.
Politics: caught the debates. I must say, the way Obama can keep all emotion but for a tense grin off his face is scary. I did notice that he uses numbers to make statements, and they don't make much sense. It is confusing. I didn't really here him actually answer a question in the first debate, but he did great run around on them, to include repeating some of McCains own ideas. It was like he either couldn't think for himself or he doesn't want us to know what he is really up to. I should make a point of telling you what someone drew attention to. People who use numbers in the way that Obama is doing tend to be scam artists. I AM NOT SAYING THAT HE IS A SCAM ARTISTS! JUST THAT HE SOUNDS LIKE ONE.
On McCain, I mat not agree with all of his politics, but I like them a heck of a lot more than the other guys. I like the fact that when asked a question in the first debate, he answered it. He didn't repeat Obama except to point out was he was saying, how he said it, and make a point with his opposition and oppinion. He didn't use anything Obama said as his own ideas, he stated his own. He also only used numbers in exact or near exact amounts to make a point and didn't dance around an issue with a lot confusing high percentages and dollar amounts the 90% of the public will never see.

Man meal for the guys!
1 steak per person
3 cloves of garlic chopped
1 to 2 lbs fresh green beans
small bag of frozen tail less shrimp-cooked
meat tenderizer(salt-read the package that's all it is)
the next posts potatoes recipe
1 lb bacon chopped (peices about 1 in)
Apply meat tenderizer accordingly and let sit while you prepare potatoe dish. In skillet cook bacon until crisp to substitute for ham in tater recipe.
Use drippings to cook steaks to desired doneness. Add the thawed shrimp, or frozen it heets quickly, to the drippings left in the pan and let heat until hot. Remove and put in bowl to serve. Use crnstarch according to direction to thicken remaining drippings in skillet for gravy.
In a large pot boil green beans until tender ( my hubby likes them still a little crisp, they taste better). when done remove from water and add butter and salt and pepper to taste.

Why Women Shouldn't Vote.
Being a woman this will probably an interesting rant/personal standpoint. No, i'm not mascarading as a woman (see http://reneckcatholic.blogspot.com/). I'm guessing my husband would vouch for me as well. I just might be considered sexist against my own gender(some of it).
My father sees the things that have happened in the government since after WWI as the result of women having the vote. That may well be, but my standpoint is a bit different.
Women shouldn't have the vote because as a result we(women) got jobs and left the home. I feel that that directly led to the home life that so many children have now. It's not just the children, it has affected our menfolk, too.(yes menfolk)
Now here's the rant part:
If it weren't for the fact that many of the girls i knew had working parents(both not one) some of them would have turned out as better mothers, wives, and examples to young girls, including their younger siblings.
Also, if women went back into their biologically established role inside the home instead of outside the home the men that are out of work in this country would be able to get a job and some of them would be able to keep a job instead of some lowlife chit playing the system and getting him fired to move up in the company.
No i'm not saying we should all be "barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen", that's just the radical in the closet feminist who need to understand how a good role model inside the home not just outside the home will effect how everything in the country works.
YES! educate us. YES! make sure we can be strong independent women. BUT make sure that we cantake care of our homes, and families.
It's not hard. I have been taking care of my sister since she was little. When she turned 18 i let her do it herself. Granted she's a slob and I had to teach her how to do laundry when she was 16(that was a chore) but she can take care of herself (if she wants to).
A real woman can handle it. The not so real women went for the vote and wore their underwear(that's right underwear) in public. To me those "sufferagettes" sound like they just wanted a reson to get to all out comando. I blame them for the downfall of the homelife and the rate at which chldren drop out of school and the unemployment rate.

Humerous Baby Stuff
This evening a very sleepy "grinnin' bouncer"(who started wlking last saturday) walked
into the baby gat in the living room, litterally bounced off the plastic mesh and fell backwards
onto the floor. She didn't cry or fuss. Just looked at me confused when I laughed at her lack control
with the loss of wakefulness.
My neice, the other baby(who walked at 10 months), last night was amused by the sound of me blowing across the top of an empty bottle. Walked around with the bottled to her nose and touching her upper lip blowing into it with her nose trying to make the same sound. Then she put it in her mouth turned it up made a funny face at the tastes of the drops in the bottom.(granny smith draft cider--her dad was there i was off duty)
The 3 yr old saw for the first time today fresh caught fish. Her uncle brought it home this afternoon and I took her out to the cooer and showed her. When I took the lid off she looked in and said "what's that?" i said"that's fish" I touched the top of one fish and the thrashed around in the water and got pissed off. "I don't like that fish." was her response. obviously less than impressed.

update to IR-Rants
She is doing better. Still on respirator (as precation) and opened her eyes for them today. She cracked them for them while we were in the room.
Keep praying. She has to breath on her own under sedation while on the respirator before they will take her off. The pressure in her head needs to stay where it is or clear up completely for her to get better, I think. That's what it looked like today. She breathes when they stop the sedation and fights the respirator, though.
Keep praying.

Today I am really glad to live in the state i'm in. It would be so much worse if I lived in kentucky. Someone I know was being abused by his girlfriend ( that's right HIS GIRLFRIEND). He called the cops to report her for abuse and she called, litterally seconds after him to report him for it. He has to signs of abuse and she has so signs of it. He gets arrested, even though his call went in first. He can't be released without a lawyer, at his arrainment he couldn't file charges against her. The officers who picked him up told him that he couldn't file charges against her. He has to hope she doesn't show up at his next court date telling lies about him. They did however take pictures of his injuries., busted lip, big scratches on his face and a large black and blue mark on his upper leg. She didn't have any marks. She does have a broken foot that she has ahd for a while. If she blames that on him he will have a definite 6 months in jail in kentucky.
Let's here it for the common wealth state. Arrest them and put them in jail! Who cares if they are obviously the victim!?! Lock them all away.!

While news searching today I ran across an article about an 18 year old who got arrested for putting a hit on his parents.
http://abcnews.go.com/TheLaw/wireStory?id=4318091
How the parents talk about him and their reactions is a bit off. I don't think they really understand what happened.
Well, looking for a news story on the internet is harder than i thought. Both FOX and abc had no record of the news story. It was about a kindergartner who threw a tantrum at school and got handcuffed for it. The parents were called to pick him/her up and sent the nanny. The nanny got there and the kid was handcuffed to something. The school wouldn't release the kid to the nanny so they sent him/her to a mental hospital. a six year old!! They said it was because he might be crazy. A six year old!! Who threw a tantrum!! Now who hasn't heard of a 6 year old throwing a tantrum? I have. i've even done it. Kids throw fits, of many different kinds, usually involving screaming, kicking, biting, pouting, glaring, hitting, etc. They don't all have to be present in a single fit either.
What's worse is it was a public school. IT is abuse of a child. A child who was put in the care of thier teachers. If that's what they do to someone elses kid, what do they do to thier own kids?
Private school is looking really good about now. Especially since it seems the school is getting away with it because it's the school and what they say goes.

This link is an article that I think all who visit my blog should read. It is the resaon that I never got into role playing games, video or dice. I have a childhood friend who became more distant when she started getting involved in RPG games. My own husband, when we lived together(bad uncatholic thing to do), would spend hours of his free time playing RPg video games. He even did the same thing about neglecting his share of duties.
If anyone ahs children who are playing RPG games they should sit them down NOW and have a serious talk with them about time and importance of other things that actually exist.
I know that I myself will never understand the appeal such a false world. Especially having already tried as to understand it to socialize with friends and my how husband.

Our charity case keeps trying to invite people to M's wedding. We also had to keep telling her over and over that she wasn't a brides maid. I had to tell M that she's just going to have to tell her no everytime she brings up somebody. She actually asked why they were trying to keep it small. With just thier family and a few friends there will be about 250 invitations. Our charity case keeps trying to get her to invite all of her friends. People M doesn't even like. The next time she tries it i'm going to say something to her., and I can't be nice about it. IT's a good thing the fiancee will probably tell her first.

The 10 month old started waving after dinner. She can clap. And because she sees everybody doing it at dinner and church, folded her hands when we said grace. She crawls on all fours now and says more letter noises. She understands when we tell her not to to something. I only had to tell her once not pull my dangly earings.
But this is the best one yet. When we had family dinner she tried to claw at me to get my food. I lookedat her and said,"Don't do that! It hurts. Don't do it" She recieved some chopped veggies (she's old enough) from my plate. When she was done, SHE PATTED MY ARM TO GET MY ATTENTION SO I COULD GIVE HER MORE!! Then she patted her dad for more peas at dinner tonight! She is just so cool! Everytime she does something new it's something that we wouldn't think she'd be able to do. I want to see what she'll do next, it just might floor someone.
