LCW's Bday
* LCW turns 55 today ... we'll probably eat out somewhere (maybe I should get a cake). She had a night out with the girls from her work last night (movie, dinner, and presents)
* Paid of the first mortgage on Saturday (...wheee...)
* Called HFW on Sunday, CG is still with her and DJW is in Denver. RJH may come in this summer to see her. JMG seems to be coping.
* I captured an MP4 of LCW feeding several hundred ducks at Washington Park Sunday night. Weather was a steam bath.
* KAR is coming to town around the first. Maybe I can talk PCW into dropping by.
* Surviving at work but struggling to stay productive (sigh).

More on yesterday's fire ...
Here is an excerpt from the papaer that LCW send to me today:
Springfield man suffers life-threatening injuries in fire
By Staff reports STATE JOURNAL-REGISTER Posted Jul 12, 2008 @ 04:29 PM
An elderly man suffered life-threatening injuries after a blaze consumed several items inside his duplex in the 300 block of South Glenwood Avenue on Saturday afternoon.Fire investigators had not determined the man’s identity immediately after pulling him out of the building, but noted a neighbor identified him as being in his 60s, according to deputy division chief Bob Reside. The victim was taken to Memorial Medical Center’s burn unit after sustaining second- and third-degree burns to his torso and inhaling a large amount of superheated air.Firefighters arrived at the South Glenwood Avenue duplex about 2:04 p.m. and discovered smoke coming from a second floor front window. When the firefighters took a hose line up the rear stairs to combat the fire they discovered the victim and carried him outside to paramedics.Investigators believe the fire began in the victim’s front room when objects inside the apartment began to burn, although a specific cause of the fire has yet to be determined. The structure itself was not heavily damaged from the flames and smoke, and damage was contained to the second floor.The victim was the lone occupant of the apartment, firefighters said.

Excitement ...
* Had a little excitement yesterday. The house on the east die of the alley behind our house caught on fire. I don't think that there was much damage, though.
