Cold

The North decided to send some cold weather down South. It was so cold that I had to bring my very hairy dog into the house. He and I had a good bonding time together last night. I let him slept in the basement, but I stayed down there with him most of the time. I gave him a bucket full of water and a bowl of doggy chow. Things went well. Today it warmed up, so I took him back outside. If the weather turns bad again, I'll be ready to bring him in again.

The Clinic

The clinic is the place to go if you don't have an medical emergency. My local clinic is properly staffed, and the people there are highly trained professionals. I saw a patient who came for a check-up. She could hardly walk. She was only able to take two steps a minuet before stopping, but the staff were there for her. They brought out a wheelchair for her and helped her in it.

Don't be scared to go to the clinic. The staff are there for you.

Old But Still Great

I went by a restaurant that has been in business for many years. It may be old but the food is still great there. It has a stained wood interior. The seats are comfortable, but the lighting is a little dim. I ordered some fish, mashed potatoes, and green tomatoes. And last, for dessert I had a cheesecake. The prices were in the medium range, but I got my monies worth.

I have always heard, "Don't judge a book by its cover".

Wally World

Today I went to a Wal-Mart A.K.A. Wally World. Yes, you can say they have everything from a to z. I found a few bargains and bought a few things, and I left out of that store with a little less money in my pockets. But here is the kicker. Wal-Mart's parking lot is terrible. You have people who have parking lot rage, people who cannot remember where they parked, clueless people, and shopping cart employees who don't care. Wal~Mart. Ha ha.

Ringing In The Year

Yes. I sure did ring in 2009. I singed. I danced. I got happy, all until my neighbors started shooting. From big guns to little guns, people were banging them. I chose not to shoot mine. I did not want to get in the cross-fire.

But anyway... Happy 2009.
