Incidentally, "loath" is an adjective meaning against or unwilling, "loathe" is a verb denoting dislike, abhor etc.. To loath is not hating. Dan does point this out in a response comment in his blog.
The annual reoccurring problems with the budget is one more reason that a return to a calender fiscal year must be a priority consideration for Mayor, City Administrator Dashield and the Council in the first half of 2009. The next fiscal year starts July 1, 2009. It is possible to b y ordinance make it a truncated one pending a 2010 calender fiscal year.
A loss from the return to the calender year, will be the ability to spend by special resolutions funds for 6 plus months until a definitive budget can be approved after the state allocations and anticipated grants are available. Why have a budget if one has already spent most of his income?
Our thoughts are with Councilor Reid and our hopes are for his speedy recovery from his present medical problem. His commitment and contributions to the Council affairs will be missed.
Congratulations to Plainfield High School Graduate, Eugene Monroe for being named second team All American offensive tackle while playing for a bad UVA team. Monroe is predicted to be one of the first two offensive tackle selected in the NFL draft. He has also has an excellent scholastic record at Virginia.
After Friday the 19th we will happily be inundated for the next 10 days but fortunately not concurrently with 4 great grandchildren, 2 sets of dotting parents, The "greats"'s grandparents, and sundry other " issues including spouses, significant others etc. Only earth shaking developments will be reason to post a blog, thus there will be a hiatus for all of the next week or so.
For everyone:
May the Holidays and Holly Days be full of happiness
May the up coming year be free of worry and tragedy.
Winter in Cedarbrook Park 70s
