Semi-good, Bad, Good, Sad and REALLY BAD news

Semi good news....
The bailout didn't happen yet. The conservatives wanted to have a say in what happens to 700 billion dollars so they didn't agree to the plan yesterday. I am in favor of taking a little more time to work this out, as it's a will mean a huge tax increase for us "little" people. Or as they say in the media on "main street" as opposed to "wall street." I hope they can come up with a plan that will allow the tax payers to receive the profits from the eventual sale of the mortgages they will be buying. That way we will have a system which will include some capitalist provisions in the bill instead of having a totally socialist bill.

Good news....
My buttonhole foot came yesterday. It is huge, it must weigh three of four pounds. Hope I can learn to use this monster. This time I will pray first.

Sad news....
They pulled up all the beautiful flowers at the MTC, Now they have planted pansies which will last through the winter but will never be as beautifu as the bed of flowers of all colors and sizes. Sighhhh

Bad news....
Dad and Michael see this bailout as being the first volley in the eventual collapse of the Government. Happy thought, isn't it :(.

REALLY BAD NEWS.....
binge eating all afternoon yesterday. AAARRRGGG!!!!! (tasted good though)

Good news.... (don't want to end on a bad note)
Hmmmmm! Lets see, What can I say that's good!
My fingernails are finally getting long again (I know. That's pretty lame.)

Definitely bad news with the bailouts. Every time I hear that it makes me want to sing "it's the end of the world as we know it.."

I say that celebrities stop buying so many cars and homes and give some of their money to the little people. I mean,how many $5,000 purses and $800 shoes does a person need?? :P

Yeah not a good thing about the bailouts. But I know I will be safe knowing that the Lord lives and I try to do my best.

Dang politiciancs!! Too bad we can't fire them. Oh well, hopefully this means the Lord will come sooner rather than later!

By the way, BYU plants new flowers every spring. I bet it's probably the same way with the MTC. Perhaps the beautiful flower beds will be back after winter ends! That's a happy thought right?
