Caregivers, the loneliest people

We don’t have any place to turn to for a moment of relief.

No one wants to hear our tales of woe.

There’s never any help when you need it unless you pay through the nose for it.

Friends disappear.

No one asks how you are but they always ask how she/he is.

People are quick to offer advice but never offer to help.

We often feel as if we’re losing our minds.

 

Updating the blog pages

It was with sadness that I updated my blog headline post. However, I do love the pictures of Lucy that I used.

I also redid my about me post, removing Patty’s history and updating Gavin’s.

Gavin was our 7th Bull terrier. In order they were: Danny, Joey, Malcolm, Mercy, Sadie, Patty, Gavin, and Lucy is #8.

This administration will be the death of many of us…

Dump that Trump and find us a real president.

Look among the humble of us.

Sift through and find one who would lead.

Male or female, it doesn’t matter.

A person of color or white, it doesn’t matter.

The only thing that matters is…Intelligence, compassion, honesty, integrity, and humbleness.

Find one with all these and then raise him/her up to our highest position.

Then, and only then, will we advance as a nation again.

The tragedy that is America today

We all watch in horror as every good program, piece of legislation, protection, and liberty is stripped and raped by this administration.

We feel a helplessness at times before we rally again and scream out in protest against this horror we call #Twitler and his minions.

Unfortunately, no one in the government seems to be listening to us. No one in the government seems to care other than a small handful of democrats who are trying hard to make their voices heard.

One of my favorites is the young Joe Kennedy. He may be our hope for the future.

WordPress, I really hate the ‘new’ format.

For months and months I tried to like it, really I did.

I don’t.

I just purely and simply do not like it.

What was simple became convoluted and a royal pain.

As if American education hasn’t gone downhill enough…..

Now #Twitler has ordered Devos to lower federal education standards.Yep, you read that right. Why not continue the dumbing down of America?

As if with all the idiotic “testing education” the kids have been getting hasn’t dumbed down America enough.

Add to that, those people who think that with less than a high school education, they are qualified to home school their children.

Yeah, no.

I know people with college degrees who aren’t qualified to educate their children.

That’s the point though “TO EDUCATE” not cram a pile of test answers down their  throats and expect them, as a result, to be educated.

Minds need to think, to explore, to socialize, to grow, to question everything to learn.
