Woke up this morning everything I had was gone.

I'd like to say that the quote from the song I'm referring to isn't actually descriptive of my life. I have plenty of things too numerous to list here in fact, although sometimes I try.

I love this (loved?) this weird little patch of land near my house known as "future park" in fact I've taken photos of the kids and dogs there and posted them on this very blog. If I were not in fact super duper lazy, I would search them out and link them for you. Alas.

This morning I can round the corner and got a little clue about how much of it was future park and how much of it was future suburban McMansions. 3/4 to the developers 1/4 to the park. It was a jaw dropper. That's all I'm saying. I mean I live in a house. Some have even called it a McMansion, but it isn't quite. I can't complain I know my house sits on what used to be woods. And it's even made of wood. So I can just shut my pie hole.

The fact is I have tons to be thankful for. I won't list them here. Tons.
