Well it looks like the Mountains are on hold. With the government shutdown the Smokies,s will not be open and we stay in cades cove campground.Have you noticed how the news keeps telling us about how we are suffering because of this shutdown?If it wasn't on the news would we even notice? I mean really.The main inter action most people have with the federal government is the withholding line on their pay stub!I BET THAT WILL STILL BE THERE.I was watching the news and they had a woman speaking on how outrageous it was that she was losing money on fulow she was a FEDERAL EMPLOYEE!!!!! Welcome to America ladie it is a land full of layoffs rollbacks and pay cuts in the real world.
Now i favor the shutdown it is not just politics it is an action to stop a bad law.3 of our kids were going to be reduced to part-time status so the company's they worked for could comply with the law.When actions of those in government turn full time jobs into part time and only add new part time then cry over a weeks losing pay don't expect me to care.
SIDENOTE It has been 7days since we decided to Quit smoking i have had 9 cigarettes.7 with morning coffee and 2 after nonya dam business.
Hang in there friend. Fellow told me the the third day & the third week were the worst to get through when quitting ( or cutting back on tobacco/nicotine). I found that to be sorta true.
ReplyDeleteA year after I quit I would occasionally crave a smoke...

Hanging in! MY buddy quit 14 years ago and out of the blue last month he told me some times he could fire one up but then the desire is gone.
DeleteLots of state parks still open, and I think they are better than the federal ones. You might give some of them a look over and see if anything suits.
ReplyDeleteA lot of them are much better and we may be going to Amish country its syrup time.If we go we may take the grand son for a 1 niter.
