Happy Sunday one and all..........nice news to report today, niece Elizabeth (Liz), husband Rob and big sister Alexis welcomed baby brother Benjamin Evan on Oct. 3, 2008 - Benjamin arrived at 6 lbs, 5 oz. and 19.5 inches long - everyone is home and doing well. Family friend from Seattle, Barbara Epstein, reports she and husband Steve are the grandparents of Kelly Epstein, born Oct. 22, 2008 at 6 lbs. 3 oz. and is 19" long. Always nice to welcome new little characters to the family, and so much to look forward to as we watch them grow....

Counting down the days, don't know how all of y'all feel - but I'm DONE with politics, only thing being that after the elections, we have to listen to the media about what did/did not happen, and what will/will not happen for about 6 more weeks....whew - thank heavens we have 4 more years before this happens again. Even tho this has been a historical political year, enuff is enuff!

Like it or not, I'm once again going thru magazines, books, drawers and shelves trying to downsize, eliminate, make more room for less clutter....Question of the day, do you think it will ever happen? For all of you who know me, that is the age old question, me and my "stuff".....

Until tomorrow, enjoy this day - we only have one chance to make it count. So whatever your day brings, I hope it's good....

Adios'
