I'll get my 2¢ in about the politics of the day & zip the lip from here on.  Trump was my choice of all, any of the parties, from the start. Reason was he has enough money he doesn't need a salary, he is not beholden to anyone, any party and I like the fact that "they" can't muzzle him. 

No question he was raised with manners but has to be bluff & gruff to convince people he can be tough.  About his getting along with Putin, anyone stop to think that all of those missing e-mails could have led a straight path to the Dem Party hacking?  Besides, the press has been so busy bashing Trump they haven't bothered to even comment about all those missing e-mails since they found something else to chew on. 

I am ashamed of the protesters, don't they realize that 50% of the population is unhappy with EVERY election but most of us wouldn't consider protesting. For sure, that last two elections it would have been yelled racists if anyone protested, right? 

The last President that was in a similar critical position was Truman.  I do remember the eyes rolling about his speech & manners (especially when a reporter criticized his daughter's singing.)  Living in MO & 10 years old when he had the guts to drop the bomb to end the war, I thought he was the best thing ever happened, my 2 brothers got to come home from a German POW camp and the Navy.

And now I am taking to my bed, got dressed & picked up my prescription.... then went to the car wash to get the stuff off they spray on the streets before snow.... supposed to get it off as soon as possible because of rust, but my problem is I can't get in without getting slacks dirty.  I do the wash your own so I can spray into the wheels & under as much as possible.  Went through the drive thru for hamburger, fries, sunday & coke.... could not eat it all and so know I am dying.   

Joan, so sorry for all the bumps & bruises, takes a while for all those splotches to spread out.  (((Hugs)))

Larry, do take care with the wiped out feeling, this flu bug causes that, for several days before  the cough started I would all of a sudden feel like I HAD to lay down to breathe. Kind of concerned because when that hit Cas it meant he was ready for another stent.  Sure enough, they would find a blockage.  I don't want to go through another heart cath, they are dangerous, for sure.... but I'm not sure any of the clinics here have the doppler type that show blockage.  Prayers for you. 

Curiosity got the best of me so I had to see what I posted in here.  I'm honored but a little surprised that the other posts that brought my wandering thoughts to this, weren't moved with mine.  Guess this is where I belong, come see me.
