ponderings while berry picking

I was out picking blackberries this afternoon, no i-pod, no mp3 player, just me and my thoughts. Such as

• why does the US have bases in so many foreign countries?
• why do people feel entitled to throw their garbage in the streets, in the woods, anywhere they want?
• why do women still feel afraid (unsafe) alone or in the night ?
• why do people think pop tarts are a decent breakfast?
• with so many poor people, hungry people, abused people - why can't we work to help them instead of killing other people?
• why does someone that can throw a ball get paid millions more than a brain surgeon?
• why do 'we' eat so much junk food?
  

Back to school!

Well, there isn't much work these days so I decided to make good use of my time and go back to school. I went to check it out, all those credits I got back in the 90's are still good - over the halfway mark to my aa degree. So the end of the month I'll start back. Looking forward to it!

as is clear to anyone paying attention ~ I am not much of a blogger! don't have time and ?? oh well. waiting for spring!
