I'm late with my posting today. It has been a full day.
I have shared with some folks already that I called the city prosecutor's office today and found out that our town has a special court to handle the cases of people with mental illness. The court is presided over by the judge that convinced the city to implement court several years ago. I think this bodes well for son Sneed.
The poor fellow went to the psychiatrist today and they have adjusted his medications because he is complaining of hearing voices and seeing things. Hopefully, the prosecutor will see the folly in trying him for this dumb arrest. At the moment son Sneed is optimistic and in good spirits.
Son Sneed and I have to appear at his arraignment tomorrow at one-thirty. He has to plead not guilty and they are going to assign a public defender. We will see how that works out.
I went to work this morning with the intention of giving Randall Bing my notice. I spoke with him and he has asked me to give him ninety days notice. He says it will take that long to hire a competent replacement. I don't want to be unfair to him, but at the same time, it is not my fault that we are so short-staffed that there is no one to assume my duties.
Sneedlet One spent his first day in preschool today. This was a big day for him. Daughter Sneed said he walked in and made himself at home. No problems.

You have a lot going on in your life, Merle. I cannot but be anxious about S1's first day at pre-school.
Aw man! Another dude post.
First of all, I'm alarmed and having the same reaction as Kurt. Did you tell us you were quitting or retiring, and I just missed it? Not that you are obligated to tell us such newsworthy things, but you were just so cavalier in mentioning it.
I'm soooo hoping things will go well with Son Sneed's court issues as well as med adjustments. It's such a delicate balance to try to maintain.
Good for Sneedlet!
And here's a question I was wondering last night and thought, "Merle would know!"
What percentage of your monthly earnings should you automatically deduct from your pay check and put into savings? We've got some coming out and going into IRAs, and we have only $50 per month per kid going towards college. What would be the wisdom you could share with me on this issue? Is there a one sentence answer like "10 %"?
Thanks Merle! My cousin Moe lives in your yard with his family and brother-in-Law, Seth.
