I remodeled my blog and my list of links disappeared. I'm in the process of reconstructing it but a few may be lost. For some reason I can't rearrange all the modules so please bear with me while I try to figure this out.
Crochet, Reading and whatever catches my fancy.

Entry for September 20, 2007
In yesterday's first entry I wrote about the possible takeover of our town's wastewater department by an European contractor. I sent copies to the newspaper, mayor and city council. Boy is hubby FURIOUS with me! He is a city worker...therefore I am not allowed to have opinions of my own. My wages are taxed by the city and my name is on this house we're buying here so why can't I have my own opinion? If it is held against him then that is illegal. I do NOT like the town I live in but I should be able to voice my opinion no matter who I am married to. Maybe this will become a better place to live. That's part of a democracy. I'm sorry dear husband that you don't agree with me. I am entitled to my own opinion and I am guaranteed freedom of speech by the First Amendment. Your thoughts are not mine nor are mine yours.

On this day in history 1692 : First Salem witch hanging
In Salem Village in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, Bridget Bishop, the first colonist to be tried in the Salem witch trials, is hanged after being found guilty of the practice of witchcraft.
The Rev. Samuel Parris's nine year old daughter, Betty, and a twelve year old niece, Abigail Williams played around with "witch craft" with Tituba, the family slave. Other neighbor girls soon became involved. Tituba told stories about witch craft including fortune telling. They were Puritans and as you may imagine all H--L broke out when it was revealed what they were doing. Fingerpointing soon happened and the trials for witchcraft soon commenced. The following links contain a plethora of information on the trials including transcripts.

On June 7th, I made a comment in one of my entries that my son is single. I have gotten some backlash from this. To Matthew, and the others, I'm sorry if you took offense. None was intended. Matt has been corresponding with a girl from overseas for a few years now. Matthew is an adult and what he does is his own business. Sorry to all concerned.
