As much as it pains me to admit this, your mother is often right.  So I thought I would tempt fate, put my new shoes on the kitchen table, I mean, how can that affect your luck right??

Now what you are looking at here sideways is my broken hose in the Durango.  The hose that broke the day after I put my new shoes on the table and said so what to superstition. 

So I think am important lesson was learned here, I will now go back to not putting my new shoes on the table.  I might suggest the rest of you heed that warning as well.

Now that my mornings are a little less structured, I have fallen into a routine of waking up, getting the paper from outside my door and doing the crossword and suduko while I eat breakfast.  Mondays are my favorite because both are super easy and then as the week goes on, they both get a little harder until we get to Saturday, where I'm lucky if I can answer two questions on the crossword.  I don't understand why it has to work like this.  I mean, I can understand the easy one on Monday to let you start the week with a false sense of accomplishment, but as the week goes on and you get worn down, is it really fair to make it harder??  I think they should throw an extra easy one in there on Thursday just to give you a little an extra encouragement to finish out the week.  Having said that, I do think it's important to note that I did finish the whole thing this morning.
