Today is Friday in the works sense of the week. Thank GOODNESS!!! I don't know if I could have handled another day in the pit of boredom.
Dave's sister Jen who I love to pieces flew in last night late. Sorry to say I couldn't hold out on sleep until then but that is okay, I'm sure I will get to see plenty of her tonight and this weekend.
I avoided eating ANYTHING after nine last night. Not that I pig out or anything, but I usually at least have something small. I think it helped with the dreams because I was able to avoid the fitful dreams and actually get some rest. I am definitely going to have to make a habit of that.
Looking at the headlines in the paper this morning, and I see that supposedly, scientists have succeeded in cloning a baby that is to be born sometime in January and you have to wonder if this child will lead any semblance of a normal life or if they will be poked, prodded and studied their whole life... like the Dionne Quintuplets... what a tragedy that was.
You�d hope mankind would have progressed far enough not to, but ask me if I have much faith in that and my answer wouldn�t be to positive.
Anyway, enough of all this serious talk. I hope all of you have a marvelous thanksgiving, stuff your bellies full, hug your family and friends and get some extra rest. Most of all, I hope we can all remember to be thankful this holiday because I think people often forget that it isn�t just about the turkey. In honor of it, I am going to start my thankful list right here:
