Even taking msbelle's point into account, when the economy is bad, people wait as long as possible to fix things they can get away with not fixing because they simply can't afford it.
I think even worse is new construction taking a nosedive.

We discussed it the other night. She wanted to help Daddy make a martini for me, and finally worked out that the mixing and shaking part is for big kids and grownups, while little girls put the olives in. I'm so proud of and horrified by my little Boo.

Any advice on dog food options?
We use Nature's Variety, which has allowed us to rotate food even with Sassafras' troublesome stomach. I think bonny used it for her B'boy before she started cooking for him.

I just discovered a small scratch on the back of my hand, and I don't know how it got there. My best guess is the baby chick scratched me when I was putting her back in the box. Damn you, Reba!
