No Wonder

No wonder I have seen Nancy Pelosi with her mask tight to her face during press interviews and a speaking engagement today.

I was unable to watch the debate last night. We had a horrific wind storm last night with torrential downpour and lightning. We lost power for 12 hours with an elderly mom on oxygen. Half our town lost power, trees down everywhere.

So I have spent the day catching up. We all know trump has COVID and far from well. Then read about the debate and the fact that Pence had pink eye, a COVID tell. Pence in fact is supposed to be in quarantine due to his own exposure. I think he has it and just like trump went to a debate knowing that he may well be spreading it. They don't care.

One and two may be going down and Nancy as number three is doing everything she can to protect herself and our Country, hence the mask.

Brianna Keilar of CNN said today that trump is : He is shedding the virus like 'PigPen' from 'Peanuts.' So is Pence. Think about that. The President and Vice President of the United States are knowingly infecting fellow Americans, they seem hell bent on infecting our Democratic candidates as well.

I can't handle all the news today.

Vote. We Are On The Eve of Destruction.

If you can, try to find debate

Kamala knocked it out of the park the minute she opened her mouth & continued to inform Mother's boy!

We are doing well. We went through 4 spare tanks of oxygen, waiting for the replacement.

Frankly all of MA and I mean all got hit by the storms, we happened to be in a red zone.

I love Kamala.

Other than that we are okay. I read a few chapters of Michele's book Becoming. Not easy with a flashlight.

Thank you, Demsrule.

Do you have a generator?

You can get a relatively inexpensive power inverter, hook to car battery & power her oxygen machine. (Best with deep cycle battery & don't run battery down.)

We have a sine wave we bought for $100 for this purpose. Runs fridge, tvs, lights, modem, router for hours (big deep cycle Optima car battery).

Quick easy fix. Might give you & Mom.some peace of mind to have a redundant power back-up.

That would have scared me to death about mom and the oxygen.

You can catch up on all the news. The most important thing is that you are all okay.

And I'm voting today!
