This day in History
The Women’s right to vote was ratified this day in 1920.
Let that sink in.
My mother was 5 years old.
Sometimes running errands is a good thing
It gets me out of the house before I strangle him.
Had to run to his pain management office to pick up a prescription, Also CVS called before my alarm went off to tell me he had a script ready. That made two I needed to pick up.
Went over to G’s and asked her if she wanted to run errands with me. I winked and said, “we can stop for lunch too.”
A little while later we were off to make the first stop at pain management.
From there we stopped at a favored diner on our way back to town to CVS. Thought to take a picture of my spinach quiche and fruit salad after I’d started to eat.
CVS pharmacy stop, I had to drop a script there and we had a 30 minute wait for it.
We decided to kill some time by taking a walk at Lake Muhlenburg. I got three poor pictures of the swan. I hope to one day catch it up close and not during a grooming session like today.
We walked for a while then headed back to the pharmacy. Scripts were ready, no line, we were quickly on our way home.
It’s way past time…
It’s way past time for the good old boy society to step down from government and hang their heads in shame.
Since the election of the #orangeidiot we’ve seen women’s rights stripped away one by one.
The systematic destruction of our clean air, water, and wildlife protections.
The rise of racism supported by the #whitehouserat.
Science has been set aside in favor of zealous religious bigotry and pandering.
Wild spending of the American citizens’ taxes on golfing, vacationing, and lining the pockets of the extremely wealthy.
Programs designed to aid the American people to their pursuit of life, liberty and happiness have been pillaged and looted.
I, for one, am beyond ready to see this administration leave in handcuffs.
Yum, ice cream.
A rare treat in this house. I don’t often buy it for us.
I thought we earned a gallon of it when I saw the salted caramel toffee label calling out to me from the freezer case.
No way #Cheeto man….
“an egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides, on many sides.”
I beg to differ. It was nothing less than a display of terrorism, bigotry, misogynistic, racist, Nazism.
Arrest them all as the terrorists they truly are and, as their leader, turn yourself in for prosecution.
This hatred and violence has no place in our nation. A nation founded on freedom.
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Condemn these people for the terrorists that they are. For they are nothing more than homegrown terrorists.
Shame on #45. Shame on anyone who condones what happened in Charlottesville, VA!
Wow, so that’s what the bottom of my freezer looks like…
This is the first time in a very long time that my freezer is almost empty. I held off on our food order this time so we could use up more of the food before a delivery arrived.
A delivery arrives later today.
Yay. Because it is scary to see my freezer so empty.
Today’s Tee
Should he or shouldn’t he
Book value on The Curmudgeon’s pick up truck is nowhere near what he thinks it should be. However, the cost of his insurance, registration, and inspections each year are almost three times what my van costs. Not to mention what it costs to fill his gas tank.
He drives his truck maybe once every 3 or 4 months.
I say he should sell it and buy a cheap to run used car. We have no use for a gas guzzling pick up these days.
Lucy’s day out
I was fixing her breakfast when our lawn guy rang the bell for the key to the gate. OMG she scolded me, she scolded him, and she scolded The Curmudgeon as he arrived downstairs. Apologized for her noise telling the lawn guy that she was not happy because I was fixing her breakfast and I’d better get back at it before we were all deafened.
About two o’clock I picked up her traveling harness. Holy cow, her tail started going in circles so fast I thought she’d take off into the air like a little helicopter. She stood still for me to put it on and hook her to her leash. Then she dragged me to the door.
No hesitation getting into the van and then her crate. Lucy was ready for her adventure!
She never sits in the waiting room area, she drags me to the office door and bounds in to love up on the receptionists. They can’t resist her. She loves the fuss they make over her so much it’s hard to drag her out of there and into an exam room.
Then she got to see a tech where she once again was loved up on her and was loved on in return.
Teeth checked…Excellent!
Wart removal sites checked…Excellent!
And we were on our way home after another short love in session at the desk.
Lucy is a real character.
Lucy back to vet…
But don’t worry, it’s just her recheck after the wart removals and tooth extractions.
She’s feeling great.
And that awful breath she had is gone. Boy, before they found that rotten tooth, her breath smelled like something had crawled into her mouth and died.
She will have a great time meeting and greeting all her friends at the clinic.
It’s not reality TV it is propaganda TV
So now the idiot in the White House has started his own TV network. Shades of dictatorships. He’s taken another page from his honey man Putin’s playbook.
Please, can we end this already?
