It's Monday August 16th & 3 years ago today we made the greatest decision of our lives, when - after over 25 years of thinking about it - we joined the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints.... we became Mormons !!!
Now, each to their own - but...... well, it works for me/us & that's all I can really say about it - I ain't going to preach to anyone, we all have to live our lives the way we see fit. BUT, it's been a great 3 years & I recommend everybody to look into it - if nothing else, you will save money by not drinking booze, tea or coffee !! Mind you, in my case the latter was not a problem - the Dr's had already taken that little bit of pleasure away from me - bless them !!
OK - it's a Monday & I'm here alone - well, sort of...... B is out & the 'kids' are upstairs. J is still looking for work & ME is on her Uni' summer holidays. In a couple of weeks she is off to the 'seaside' with her boyfriend for a week.... so........ I hope they have a good time !!
Music wise, I've been playing a lot of things over the last few days.... at the moment the Grateful Dead's 'Without A Net' is blasting away..... not my favourite Dead album, but worth a listen all the same.
B has decided I can spend out some cash on some more Allman Brothers stuff. If you don't already know, they release a lot of 'live' stuff thru' their own 'shop' - via the net - so I buy direct from them. It does mean the cds come from the US of A - but, cost wise, it's a good deal.
For example - I have a 3 cd set here from 2003 which cost me about $25...... on Play.com today I saw the same set on sale for £50 !! That is a big mark up in any body's money.... so it works out cheaper to buy direct from the band !! Even with a low £ to $ - it's still a GOOD deal !!
I'll probably buy 4 or 5 things - depending what takes my fancy.... the sets they've done at the Wanee Festival over the years have always been good - so I might go for the 2010 versions of those..... time & the bank balance will tell !!
Onwards.....
We live in this 'small' village & I'm glad to say that 1 family seem to have moved away !! I'm not being mean or a snob - but they have been a thorn in the side of many of the villagers over the years. The sons in particular have been no more than a set of glorified bully boys - taking their own form of 'crap' out on any body who got in the way !!
We have 2 kids - both have been to college & one is now at Uni'.... the sons, I mentioned, in the meantime have been in & out of the court system more times than I can count - as I say 'bully boys'...... good riddance to them - tho' I feel sorry for whoever they have moved next to !!
Oh well - I must away.... with B out, I have to sort out my meds for the afternoon. No biggy, but I have to make sure to take the right ones - some of them knock me senseless (not too hard to do).... so I must not take those - or else B will be on my case !!
Bye Bye
