    (politically -based)

      I agree with you: due to overuse and misuse, the term "breaking news" has lost ALL of its meaning lately.

      So-called "grammar check" doesn't always take into account the context of what's being written. You're under no obligation whatsoever to take my word for anything at any time. I balk at any situation wherein someone complete trust in what "grammar check" purports.

    Though I often have many challenges just "staying in the moment" (I can project imaginary negative things to the future, even though they never, ever happen), simply having a week full of "todays" is a gift to look forward to, I believe.

    Perhaps this is silly but I buy Sparkle "Spirited Prints" paper towels -- they can inspire me when I least expect it -- grabbing for a paper towel. This is the inscription on one of them in the sets - -

    "Love Big, Play Hard and Eat Dessert. Savor the Simple Things and Don't Worry about the Rest. Choose Today to be Amazing!"

      This year, my nation's Independence Day falls on a Wednesday. For that reason, many people have turned the entire week into a vacation (holiday), while some others will have a regular schedule part of the week, only interrupted on the 4th of July. I am scheduled to work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, so I will celebrate on Wednesday. 

      That sums up my coming week.

    That's cool.. I do remember it's your special day over there.. I have a very nasty but very important Occupational Health assessment... paid for by my employer but I so, so, so need them to be independent and not just ready to toe the line.. So it won't be a good day for me.. I will be thinking of all my American friends having a great day.

    I just turned in a report with a glaring misspelled word.  I'm off to a bad start.  Frankly my dear I am at the point where I really don't give a darn. This last week was horrible. This word, is the icing on the cake. 
    Additionally I five credits i cannot do by December.  So I'm not in a hurry anymore, why should i be the only one.

    I'm not looking forward to an entire week of explosions that will traumatize countless animals and humans. 

    According to Forbes, Americans spend $600 MILLION dollars on fireworks. Imagine the good that could be done with all of that money.
