It’s not funny to have an injury of any kind but as I have said many times, you have to have a sense of humor about life and whatever it brings. Last Friday, when I was about to walk Ty, I missed the last step and went down.The wall my head went into won the battle. My cousin described it in ballet terms, which was very funny, but I went to the hospital, stayed overnight and they put six staples in my head. My ankle looks like an elephant trump — not like the President he’s a horses ass. Anyway there were cute male nurses and young doctors in the emergency room so it was fun to be there. However, they insisted on taking me to go to a room. Not as much fun, but nice people. It was an overnight observation that took an extra day because releasing me took another day. When we got home David plugged in the heating pad and all the lights went out in the house and it appears, in the entire neighborhood. David went out and looked around. There was an accident somewhere, lines were down, and 2500 people were denied their light. Obviously, it wasn’t a heating pad, but that was also funny. This morning we went to the orthopedist. Oh, I forgot I was getting around in an office desk chair with wheels, that was also funny. Especially when David let go of the chair and I started to roll backward. “It’s Ok” I said, “It will stop when I get to Joan’s.” (My cousin who lives at the bottom of the hill.) Moving on, a bit of a not good pun, The Doc gave me a boot for my ankle and hooray, I can get around. I’m fine, just a little tired from pushing myself around in an office chair.
NPR and PBS both printed or read the Declaration of Independence and the reaction from Trump supporters was that it was liberal garbage from the fake media. Who are these people that never took a history or civics class. OMG. There are so many Trump supporters who don’t understand what Medicad is. What it means to them, their children and elderly parents. They don’t get that Medicare is not an entitlement, that it is earned money for working so hard during their working years. It is hard to write about this guy without calling him names. And that makes me sad because during all my years in politics and government I always respected the Presidency… I didn’t have to like the President. But Trump doesn’t respect the Presidency so how can anyone else?
This is going to be an eclectic blob.
It has been a difficult few weeks what with losing another dear friend and having my dearest tootsie in the hospital (My cousin Deb), so I have been a little distracted which may explain my klutzy behavior, or it may be I’m just a klutz. And speaking of klutz’s, how does anyone think that Trump, his kids, and his friends, are operating on the level with the American people. People wanted a change but this? Deception, lies, and incompetence? He has been in office for some 25 weekends and has spent all but five at his properties. One at Camp David. Being in DC is part of the job description. There has never been a commuter President. Yes, for years President’s didn’t have the ability or lack of moral core to stay at luxury resorts every weekend, but doesn’t his constituency kind of wonder what’s real about this guy. This week is his “Made in America” week. But neither he, nor Ivanka, nor any member of the “fam” have their products made in America. It’s such a farce. How does he do this stuff and keep a straight face. He actually thinks that “the bigger the lie, the likelihood of people believing it, increases.” Me thinkest not. Maybe people who have a moral core and are capable of analytical thinking don’t actually know how to achieve success. Is this what we what to teach our children, lying works better than the truth? Me thinkest not. Truly, sometimes lying is more advantages, but the right thing to do? Me thinkest not. Maybe if you are among the rich you think there is a dispensation from telling the truth. Me thinkest not.
Me thinkest many things. Not all of them correct, but all of them meant with the best intentions and hopefully filled with humor. We’re Just Sayin’….Iris
