Trump has really gone around the bend now. He now proposes to use the National Guard from 11 states to round up illegals for mass deportation. He is also talking about allowing sheriffs etc to also join in. Now it's not just Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and California but als o Oregon, Nevada, Utah,... Sign in to see full entry.

trump
I avoid the news as much as possible. I'm tired of hearing of all the gaffes trump makes and how he is trying to rule as a dictator following in the steps of hitler his idol. I do love to watch The Daily Show with Trevor Noah who never lacks for material with all that trump does and says. Last night... Sign in to see full entry.
car
I had the oil changed in my car today. I was thinking great, I am ok now for a while. Then he came out of the garage area and told me that I need 722 in repairs to the front of the car! Hope my angels were listening to that amount to get it to me. Sigh Sign in to see full entry.

perms
PatB's entry reminded me of a couple of times that I had my hair permed. I had totally forgotten about my first experience at first. It was pretty traumatic. My very first perm was right before kindergarten. My father took me to the beauty shop to have them cut my hair and put a perm in it. Now you... Sign in to see full entry.

tonight
I didn't see the comet or the eclipse. I wonder if they had the date wrong or maybe I just went outside at the wrong time. I checked again but still nothing. I took some pics which I will try to post at least one of them. They are kind of erie with the tall trees in the foreground. Sign in to see full entry.
