GE has a better idea: Moving jobs to China

   You don't have to look far to see why job prospects are so dim here in the United States. Jeffrey Immelt, the CEO of General Electric, closed all of GE's U.S.Edison light-bulb plants and opened a plant in China.
Immelt then announced G.E. would move its 115-year old X-ray division from Wisconsin to Beijing, where GE would invest  $2 billion, train 65 engineers and create six research centers.
   GE is now pursuing a joint venture with China to build the hardware for a new commercial plane that will compete with Boeing and Airbus. But here's the irony. Jeff Immelt was appointed by President Obama as this nation's job czar. He's supposed to be advising the president on how to create jobs for Americans. Where's the outrage?  meanwhile, Obama continues to blame Bush, the Republicans, the weather and the tea party for his incompetence.
   Of course, there are other ways in which we lose jobs to China. Construction to repair the SanFransico-Oakland Bay bridge damaged in the 1989 earthquake will soon be completed. The bridge is being rebuilt by a Chinese construction company, using Chinese machinery and 3,000 imported Chinese workers. Meanwhile, california's unemployment rate is stuck at 10 percent.
   The new Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington, D.C. was made in China by a Chinese sculptor using Chinese granite. It was assembled here in the U.S. by imported Chinese workers. Makes you wonder who's negotiating these deals.
   Honestly, if we don't start cleaning house and start holding our elected leaders accountable, it will be lights out for the America we grew up in.

Oh ...How sad...and How TRUE!
Make what you have eaten come up into your throat! I shit you not!
Isn't/wasn't Jeff Immelt another tax evader who was given/handed a job by this administration???
Another story in todays paper about the money the Unions have given to this presidency and what the President has done for them. Someone needs to yell FOUL. It stinks even worst!
He isn't responsible for what other leaders did in the past.... BUT THIS IS UNDER HIS PRESIDENCY!
My suggestion ( one of them ) to save our jobs...STOP the Fair Trade Agreement. It isn't FAIR anyway.
Other countires ship tons of products HERE and we ship hardly nothing anywhere. They don't want our products !  Every damn item of clothing in stores is made in a country other than the USA. Does that mean that we can go to China and find their stores only carry USA products? 
Yeah right...I'm out of my efffin TREE.   
WE..The PEOPLE are our own worst enemy.  Me included....I look at every lable of what I purchase hoping to find a Made In The USA lable. I'm a DREAMER! .

   Jill came home right before Logan got home from school. She had been to lunch with??????
Chinese food leftovers from The Royal Pagoda came home with her.  Also...some chicken breasts and stuffing mix, which she promptly made the stuffing and stuffed the chicken breasts for tonights supper.  Whoa!!!! Be still my my heart!!!  She used...her own money.
Wasn't long before she asked Logan if he had a good day and he told her he didn't yesterday because she didn't come home. Indignant... she told him that she did come home. Not when I called you he told her...not for a long time. It was HERE that she got miffed... Don't tell me that Julie doesn't go out, blah, blah...you had nana home with you. Julie leaves Erzi all the time with you and then the neighbors and Gilby for weeks at a time.  It was here that I spoke and said, "I agree, your mother has never left you alone for 24 hours even with me being home here, but I too was unhappy that she didn't come home when you called her yesterday."
Logan was hurt and was being accusatory and I don't blame him. She didn't like hearing the truth....TOUGH TITTY!
Who does!
     She left again without saying where she was off to.   Phone rang..Called ID Jill ) Was at storage getting the top bunk with Gilby and needed to know if the hardware to it was in a drawer in Logan's room.
Tehy cam back together and she proceeded to vacuum and they put the upper bunk up in the parlor for Gilby to sleep on. 
What it looks like to me is: Gilby is staying here days and nights that Julie doesn't need him to watch her son Erzi or take him to his visitation with his dad Victor.  WE get him the rest of the time!
Now we are talking about a 19 year old...soon to be 20 boy/man.
His dad wanted his favorite son to live with him and Jill agreed to it legally through the court when he was 13 or so.   For the past four years....dad has been doing his parenting from MS.  Yeah... you read that right!  He furthers his education to become a trial attorney ( he who has had 2 felonies against him ) and tells his son he is needed to help his step mom watch Erzi and to wuit college this past December.  It was Hurray for me..TO HELL WITH YOU!  I have more college than you do , am closer to my degree...so QUIT COLLEGE.
Well... he did and in between babysitting hours it seems he had no PURPOSE and hung out with the wrong TYPES.
Without being filled in on anything...this is the message I am getting.
EX SIL from Hell pays for his cell phone ( excuse moi...that would be his wife that makes a paycheck ) and he is keeping check on whom Gilby talks to as he continues to get educated in the MS College of Law in Jackson,MS .  Before he went off to college Gilby was just a TROPHY! He had custody of him. My son loves ME BEST!  He promised Gilby they would have many good times together. DAD WAS LONELY..he had NO ONE. Mom had Logan.  yada yada yada.  Then began the round of dad's girlfriends and Gilby was left alone days, nights, weekends and days at a time and told not to tell mom.  A few times there was even cruises ....alone a week. OHHHHHHHHHHHHH yeah, less I forget. Relatives and friends were told to check in on him.  That made it alright! 
Soooooooooo here we are to this day.  To be CONTINUED!

We turned in around ten last night. Hubby woke at  1 a.m. to pee. Get him back in bed and comfortable by 1:15.  Hadn't quite fell into a good sleep and he needs to shit. Up again.  Time 1:30.  It was around 1:45 before he was clean and back in bed and I cleaned up. By now I was WIDE AWAKE. Hubby moaned and groaned until he fell back asleep and I counted sheep ( last look at the clock was 2:30. ) Sigh!  AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh , but next time he had to pee was 6:30 a.m. :0) FOUR HOURS! 
The it was UP and AT EM......Home Health Care Kathy coming at 8 a.m.
   Today he graduated to using the bathroom sink and next Tuesday he is suppose to get into the shower.
GREAT DAY IN THE MORNING!  How is everyone going to fit in there???
My bathroom is so efffin small ...it's going to be like a 3 RING CIRCUS. I shit you not!
Kathy to bathe him, a nurse supervising and his wheelchair to get him in there....need I say more?

Next thing on hubby's agenda for me to do was to open our Safe in his closet.   After getting down on the floor with a flashlight aimed at the Safe and ten attempts to open it I gave up. It was at this point that I decided to tug the damn Safe out of the closet and Randy finally stepped in and got it up on hub's wheelchair and over to him to open.  He's still at it as I type.
During my Sweat Box time in the closet...Randy needed me to clean and disinfect the toilet area that he was replacing a new toilet seat for me.  back into the Sweat Box and my Cheryl calls. Shayla has a rash on her hip and some pain there as well. Doctor appointment is out my way. Told her to just drop in....
I never call at the right moment she exclaimed. You are always doing something.   That would be a resounding CORRECT!
   As hubby turns that damn Safe dial ( over and over ) I am beginning to think that it has been tampered with.  SURPRISED ??? NOT! Hubby had put the monies son Michael paid him for our land in NH in there.  While I have learned that anything put in there is NOT SAFE and removed any previous monies in there and hid it elsewhere. Knowing that one isn't suppose to put money in a Safe Deposit Box, won't keep me from doing so now that I have one at the bank. Pretty damn fucking good when you have to hide your money from your grown kids.
When we would go to Fl to visit my brother or his.... need I say more.
Some of my kids do not get the fact that hubby was the MAIN BREAD EARNER and what we saved was for BOTH OF US in our later years. Take from HIM ...you take from ME!

Another UPSET! Jill was just talking to Randy outside and came in upset that I wanted a ceiling fan in that bedroom and there is not enough height even with the ceiling raised 2 feet. 
It's LIKE... it was just a thought. I said, if possible, I would like to have a ceiling fan in there. 
"My son will get a haircut", she exclaimed.  As calmly as I could, I explained ...it was just a thought and IF POSSIBLE.   WTF!   I get all riled up ....FOR WHAT?   Stupid shit they come out with. Randy had his own ideas about what kind of lighting he wants to be installed in that room.  Sounded like a Batchelor Pad bedroom to me without seeing this type of lighting.  Next it will be Grow Lights that is suggested. Yeah...I'm shitting you now, but all bets are off.  

That stupid friend of Gilby's had the million dollar bill folded like it was a Ten dollar bill ..it's been explained to me.  To my mind, I was thinking ..what delivery person has change for a million dollars. DUH!
He had called Gilby and asked for the $5 he owed him and he went to meet him to pay him.
The other IDJUT had ordered $14 some odd in tax of Chinese food.  Gilby's story...checked out.
THIS TIME!

It's now after eleven. Papers needed to get a Permit for construction have been located. :0)
I have never seen them until now. Hubby had his personal papers and took care of them when we met.
have Plot plan and Deed ...Will Travel up to the Town Hall to the Inspectors Office on Monday I've been told by Randy. Construction person has the Permit Forms and is drawing HIS PLAN to submit.

Every one has showered, but me.
   Did I mention that Jill stayed in last night? Didn't see her with a red paper cup either.
Usually I would have a Smiley after that sentence, but somehow it doesn't feel like a victory.
The W.B. came for supper after working a side job all day.   It's like locking the barn door after the horse has been stolen.  NOW he works side jobs...when he should have been doing that all along and he would still have his house.  MAYBE! Forgot the toys he bought himself.  Men's toys don't come cheap.
 I shit you not!
Michelle came over in case Jill was off somewhere so I could go out awhile. 
tracie called and said she had a flat tire and was waiting for AAA to come repair it. Did I want to go out?
Told her, no thank you. Staying in, just showered and put pj's on and wanted to relax. Asked me what Jill cooked and I fibbed/LIED and told her some kind of macaroni dish. Maybe I'll still come over later, she said.  I hoped she wouldn't and she didn't. :0)   NOW..That's a VICTORY! 
The W.B. pretty much Chewed and Screwed. Had to work early this morning, so needed his beauty sleep or a drink or two.
Son Larry called .............his friend that cuts trees down for a living just cut one down that had a baby flying squirrel in it. Do I want to try to raise it and save it's life??? 
SURE..................bring it on!
Heading out to shed #3 soon to retrieve that super nice cage I bought for the baby red squirrel.
Somehow..I knew I would need it again and kept it.
Now to research what to feed it and the likes.

That's All Folks!
