Paul Ryan

Paul Ryan tried to block the delivery of 87,000 petitions to stop the defunding of Planned Parenthood. He had 6 security guards! He refuses to meet with anyone without an appointment. Lady Parts Justice League encourages women to call their state representative to let them know not to defund. They... Sign in to see full entry.

Beating of schizophrenic with attention-deficit disorder

I read this story on yahoo and struggle to understand why they attacked this particular person blaming him for Trump and all the perceived wrongs by white people. This country is not perfect. Yes, racism exists but it exists on all sides. The goal should be not to perpetuate it but to eradicate it.... Sign in to see full entry.

Fort Lauderdale

Esteban Santiago checked one bag. This bag contained the weapon with which he opened fire. He killed 5 and injured 6 more. He told the FBI he had been hearing voices. This happened the same day my son was also arriving from working in The Bahamas. His flight was originally scheduled to arrive at the... Sign in to see full entry.

diplomats left hanging in the wind

It wouldn’t be a story about Donald Trump if it didn't start with “in a break with precedent.” In this case, it’s a break with decades of precedent: Trump has told all politically appointed U.S. ambassadors around the world that they must return home by Inauguration Day, full stop, end of story,...

New Year's Greetings

This is the difference between the polite diplomat we have now but losing shortly and the egotistical narcissist we will soon have. President Obama: "It’s been the privilege of my life to serve as your President. And as I prepare to take on the even more important role of citizen, know that I will... Sign in to see full entry.

Minimum Essentials

I took English Composition class my freshman summer at the university. This class requires everyone to pass the basic Minimum Essentials test of English. Spelling, punctuation and grammar are on the test. I think there are 25 - 50 words on the spelling portion. We were able to do a trial test to see... Sign in to see full entry.

if tomorrow starts without me

A few weeks ago a woman was killed in an auto accident. She was very well liked, so the office shut down for her funeral and it was on the news and so on. On the day the workers came back to work, they found this poem in their e-mail that the deceased woman had sent on Friday before she left for... Sign in to see full entry.

beginnings of 2017

It seems we keep passing the cold/flu around this household. Luckily my mom has stayed healthy. At the moment Elijah, Leia and I have it. It doesn't help that Elijah likes to cough or sneeze without covering up and sometimes right into my face! sigh Getting ready to start prepping for taxes. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy New Year!

May the new year bring you more joy, abundance, love, good health than you expect. May you always have a friend to call to share your joy and pain. May you have the courage to do what is best rather than what is expected. May there always be enough money in your bank account to meet your needs and... Sign in to see full entry.

divorce

This entry is probably the hardest of them all. My family went to eat at the local IHOP. Our server happened to be someone with whom I went to high school. She was quite the troublemaker in high school so why should I think post high school would be any different? My father started asking me about... Sign in to see full entry.
