Here it is Friday, the end of the work week and Judy is leaving us today to return to her home, yup, her brief  visit was even more brief than usual!!!!  The reason for this is that Judy goes to service at the church on both Saturday and Sunday, God Bless Her!


It seems to be on the mild side this morning, but the weather experts are saying that this nice feeling of Spring is not going to last, don't put away the scarves, gloves, and sweaters just yet, the weather is drastically going to go back to being cold, very cold.


Well I may just stop watching the television show "American Idol."  One of the participants, Karen Rodrigues, got booted off last night, after failing to catch enough votes to keep her on.  Miss Rodrigues has a fantastic voice, uses emotion when she sings,  and as far as I'm concerned, should have been on to the very end.  Karen Rodrigues surely is alot better than what's his name from a year ago!  What the heck are the celebrity judges keeping the save for?, they should have used it last night, don't you think so?

As you may have noticed, my brain seems to be also on Spring break, so I am again going to reveal to you, the grabber and the blurb from "In the News."  The grabber is secondhand smoke harms fetal development, which I'm sure will not be too much of a shock for anyone!  The following is the blurb that followed that amazing grabber:  Smoking during pregnancy is widely known to increase the risk of premature birth, low birth rate, and a range of serious birth defects, but the danger of secondhand smoke exposure during pregnancy receive less attention, despite the fact that it increases the risk of many of these complications as well.  Reseachers found that exposure to smoke at work or home increased the risk of stillbirth by twenty-three (23) percent and of having a baby with congenital defects by thirteen (13) percent.   Thus, it is important that expectant fathers who smoke either quit or only partake of cigarettes away from their pregnant partners.


Well you made it through the work week, if you are on March/Spring break, I hope you use the last of your time off wisely and in fun.


Remember to never drink and drive, it just isn't worth taking someone's life, is it?


Take care of yourselves and stay safe.
