A mixed bag….

Well….got a slight shock this morning with the coffee shop that I have gone to every morning for more than 6 years closing with no warning…I’m a little un-anchored right now sine the Biggby that is up the street is not Kava….I am going to miss the ladies that worked there and seeing the rest of the regulars…oh, well….next, it finally hit me that my daughter is moving to Seattle next week….I know that I didn’t visit much while she was in Chicago but there was always the possibility that I could….but things change and I have to get used to it…just a little unsettled today…

On Politics….we have the idiot repubs in the US Senate blocking the nomination of a Nobel prize winning economist whose specialty is labor markets to the governing board of the Fed…if you had any thought that these guys don’t give a damn about job creation, this is another brick in the wall and goes along with the decisions made in the boardrooms across the country (after consultation with the repubs), that business is going to sit on their hands with job creation to make sure that jobs remain an issue into the 2012 election….this should be against the law…geez…
