The President is incorrect in everything he is saying

That’s a quote from a republican general former advisor. I’m crawling out of my skin because of PPG. Trying not to post constant negative crap because he’s single handedly flushing our democracy. Heck, world democracy down the toilet.

And he’s headed off to the NATO meeting blustering like a fool, and planning to meet the dictator or Russia one on one immediately after that.  Pretty sure he has no concept of how complicit he looks.... puppet like.  And no, the Democrats do not want you to fail, because you are taking the country with you.  We want you to pull your head out of your ass.

Maybe I can just quietly blog to myself instead ranting to the Facebook world

Since good lord!  You people are killing me ! 🙃
I mean it with love in my heart as I have always been surrounded by conservatives, since my parents and grandparents have always been liberal, but I just can’t shut up about the horrors that are going on in our country right now !  Some day hopefully I won’t feel this panic about the moral and physical date of our country being at risk - but right now I feel the need to wake up my fellow man and say “are you seeing this shit !?! “

Whiny little snowflake, here me shout !

Obama speech

I know I’ve been posting too much political stuff lately, and I know I need a new hobby as I am suffering from constant hand wringing “what is this world coming to” , feel
Like Im giving myself an ulcer.

But, so, I was all worked up over the anti-robinhood robbing the country and giving it all to the upper rich tax plan.... and then I watched this President Obama speech. (That’s a link up there, it should work.)  It gave me hope, but makes me so sad to think  people have turned their backs on growth, hope, positivity.  I get that you can’t see it because he’s a Democrat.... sigh.  But now, with this backlash, trashing of all the progress we made... and gutting the country’s structure, weakening it in so many ways to shovel money to the top 1% -
I am SICK . So sick I can’t talk about it,
I have a lot more to say, but the anger is boiling over just getting started.
Most people seem to have lost all their common sense.  Politicians with ethics are being ridiculed for trying to stand up against this lunacy.  And again, how did this EVER happen to our country?

Goodwill ? Not

Summer to do list

1. Spend at least a full day in my bedroom slippers 😊. (They're amazing.)

🐣 Easter weekend 2017

The Vista Peak Prep Community Garden is really taking shape!  Met some new interested parents who helped with the seedlings, and plot planning, as well as the usual teachers and the DUG members. I am so excited about this I can hardly stand it.  Don't let me forget - "Garden of Youth" , program for ESS students next year.  DPS and DUG are doing it now, and we need to join in once we are up and running with the big dogs.


Lent came to an end and my commitments are complete.  I'm happy to say that this year I did them, I remember what they are, and I'm going to continue doing them because they feel good, and make me a better person.  (Staying off facebook, - excessively, that is - spending time connecting with friends and family, praying or meditating, and donating STUFF!)


Cali was sad.  Nobody got her a chocolate bunny, and she had to stay home during Easter brunch.  Whoa is Cali!


I hope to remember this feeling always.  I remember Cousin Kate and Auntie Fran describing the same side splitting, tears rolling down your face, can't seem to stop, mother/duaghter laughter.  We were discussing what the look on Kevin's face might be as the 3 of us came crashing through the ceiling in the bath tub.  We were having a group foot soak.

Abigail finished her door!  Zentangles on the inside, Cherry blossoms on the outside. She want's another try on the outside, but dad put it up for now.  Maybe this summer she can have another blank canvas.  

Easter Brunch with Roberta/Nana at the PAL as we call it.  It sure is nice that she is so close, and that they have good enough food to want to go there for a meal!  It was a beautiful spring day.
