On My mind is the updates they continue to give on the shooting in Uvalde, Texas as they unpack all that happened (and did not happen) that horrible day. My heart hurts for those families - not only for the loss of life - but also for the response that should have happened and did not.

Sorry for the horrid vision I'm gonna share.

On my mind is the 2024 election.

Folks thought I was a rubber chicken running around yelling, "the sky is falling, the sky is falling." That I'm a raving lunatic (debatable).

Better buckle and strap up for a bumpy Election 2024

Yesterday while watching a news clip about all the displaced, injured and murdered children in Ukraine, followed by a clip about the Uvalde school shooting, I suddenly realized how analogous these two situations are. One lone evil thug responsible in both incidents while ample resourses to stop the carnage stands by, unsure of what to do. As the Uvalde report states, "systemic failures, egregious and poor decision making" were at fault and I now feel that statement clearly applies to the world's handling of Putin.

On My mind... how very, very happy I am and everyone and everything that has contributed to that happiness lately.

Christmas and the buying of presents

Cin · 08-23-2022, 07:32 AM

The perfect nectarine. It was so delicious. It was amazing. When you eat a perfect piece of fruit it is like a religious experience with a visceral twist. I don't know why it is so hard to get. A perfect piece of fruit I mean. You just don't know. Picking fruit is like buying a grab bag from the flea market. Pretty much it is a given it going to suck and be a waste of money. But every now and again it can surprise you. I live for unexpected surprises. I know it sounds like the same thing, unexpected and surprise, but it's not really. You can get a surprise that is expected. Like when it's your birthday or xmas. It's a surprise that isn't really surprising. But say you opened your gift and it was a bat house. That might be an unexpected surprise.

I was just reading about Team T---p, over on MSNBC: Team T---p Leaks National Archive Letter, Hurts Its Own Cause (LINK).

This is a short read (thankfully, lol

) but here is a priceless observation from that news release:

Quote:

Last night, Team Trump seemed to kick the ball into its own net once again. Politico reported:

The National Archives found more than 700 pages of classified material — including “special access program materials,” some of the most highly classified secrets in government — in 15 boxes recovered from Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in January, according to correspondence between the National Archivist and his legal team.

It was John Solomon, a conservative writer and one of Trump’s authorized Archives liaisons, who published online a May 10 letter from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). As Politico’s report added, the document showed that NARA and federal investigators “had grown increasingly alarmed about potential damage to national security caused by the warehousing of these documents at Mar-a-Lago, as well as by Trump’s resistance to sharing them with the FBI.”

I have no idea why someone from Team Trump would voluntarily show this to the public. It not only bolsters damaging reporting about the Mar-a-Lago scandal, it also makes the former president look worse, not better.

Indeed, the NARA letter confirms that Trump took highly classified national security materials to his glorified country club. It confirms that the Republican’s haul was extensive and wasn’t limited to a handful of documents. It confirms that the National Archives was amazingly accommodating, accepting multiple delays in the hopes that the former president would eventually cooperate and return the secrets he wasn’t supposed to have.

AND... Here is the original report from Politico: https://www.politico.com/news/2022/0...urity-00053250

Thinking about my youngest. It was such a relief seeing him today. He actually showed up for family dinner tonight. That was a shocker. He's started meds, therapy, then took his therapist's advice and agreed to go to marriage counseling as well. He's been refusing to wear glasses since the age of seven but finally has agreed and wow he actually looks good in them. Women his wife reports are flirting with him. Yeah well it's amazing how when you keep your hair looking good, your clothes clean, your beard trimmed and your socks changed women don't find you revolting them as much as you used to. He's also made it a priority to find a good job. He's always been a worker but never held jobs that paid very well or offered any real benefits. His father and brother are being being very supportive, doing all they can to help him. It's good to see the three of them getting along, working together, not fighting, arguing the way they used to. I hope with all my might he gets the job he's applying for but if not that he'll stay on track, not let it stop him. If not this one there are other good jobs out there he could make a career of. Anyhow it was a really good time. I'm just thinking about that and looking forward to getting together again next week.

What a great doctor's appointment I had today!!! ALL good news!! and the doctor himself is just amazing - and really listens - like actually listens!!! When is the last time I had a doc that did that? I could not tell you. Also, he is transgender (FTM) and of course that helps as well.

The infection is cleared from My blood and I will finish out this course of medicine and then I am done!!!

He also switched some other stuff for Me which I am super glad for- and I just feel grateful in general that I found him.
