  Ah,  I got some sleep last night. nbsp;  Something I haven't been doing much of lately. nbsp;
 After getting the kids to bed and watching urlLink Rescue Me and urlLink Nip/ Tuck ,  I crashed out.
nbsp;
 I was going to study,  but then I remembered that the test was going to be a take home test.
nbsp;
 I really dont need to study for something like that.
nbsp;
 I fell asleep fast and woke up early again.
nbsp;
 Can't sleep in when breakfast needs to be served.
nbsp;
 &
nbsp;
 Tonight is the night!
nbsp;
 Finally going to catch the flick!
nbsp;
 Going with Superfly,  Cam and 'Halle Berry'.
nbsp;
 Might end up at The Bar,  who knows.
nbsp;
 &
nbsp;
 I've posted in the past about the bad stuff that goes on around here,  and this time I thought I would post this urlLink article from the paper today.
nbsp;
 &
nbsp;
I always like to see young kids doing something good with their time rather than getting into trouble.
nbsp;
 But there&
nbsp;
are also the articles that make it tough to be a mom or a even a dad for that matter.
nbsp;
 urlLink July has been the deadliest month for traffic fatalities in St.  Joseph County since 2000.
nbsp;
 Part of this article will also say that the two boys on their mopeds,  both 15,  had been drinking before the accident.
nbsp;
 One was over the legal limit,  which is . 08 in Indiana.
nbsp;
 The guy who allegedly crossed the center line tested positive for marijuana,
 but speaking from experience,  alcohol impairs your judgment a lot worse than marijuana.
nbsp;
 I am NOT saying the driver of the truck wasn't at fault,  but with no witnesses,  no one knows what actually happened.
nbsp;
 I'll be sure to keep you informed on the outcome.

 The sun is beating down on the Braes of Balquhidder,  at the&

 it -  and then would climb back happily to&

on&

his&

listening&
