Just curious what were y'all on doing Jan. 6th other then watching TV.

My Veteran housemate was so worried she was cleaning the guns and rifles.

She didn't say anything but cursed under her breath.

I knew what she was thinking.

She was getting ready for war.

She was in war zones during her 20 years active duty and reserve time, 30 years in all.

She is a retired RN.

We came really close.

Sitting with 30 years of Christmas decorations on the floor and tables

Lots of memories


I think a lot of stuff is going into storage.

Well the mall is decorated for Christmas now.

Official.

No holiday music yet.


We put our fake tree up already, just the lights.

We have a lot of lights to put outside.

Last year so we starting early.

It is a sad day for Houston and what happened at the concert.

One of my neighbors grandson was there, he is ok.

Not like my day going to Neil Diamond or the singers at their concerts.

Damn.

RIP for the kids who died.

My 12 year old granddaughter has become a woman, we will leave it at that.

She texted me the news.

Time for me send her a present.

I am glad I am a old lady with the Trump crowd trying to take over.

Glad my grandkids are now living in Canada.

This was not the retirement I had planned.

I hope this country can work itself out of this mess.

I am going to enjoy the next few years.

Just think we could have had President Hillary Clinton.

I know to many people who did not vote in that election.


Thought she would win easily over Trump.

Now we suffering the results.

The nuts are coming out from under the rocks.

No one will be coming to rescue us.

In one month the house will be sold.

Several buyers.

No need to stay with the kids in Canada.

The open road the RV will be home.

The last holiday season in the house.

Just seems like yesterday I bought the house.

Would like to have Christmas with the kids in Canada.

If we do not travel now we never will.

My house mate is getting well now.

So off we go.

One more Halloween, birthday, and Thanksgiving here.

Watching a Route 66 episode on YouTube, a Trump like character is on it.

The episode is called "To Walk With A Serpent".

The character is very Trump like.

The episode is on YouTube.

Damn it really close.

Also on Tubi tv, free.

Almost got arrested yesterday by pissed off cops.

Went to a fast food place and the cops had pulled over a driver.

The driver did everything asked of him and cops were pointing three guns at him.

I stood on the sidewalk and watched the whole thing.

The driver was afraid, I was afraid for him.

The cops yelled at me to go inside the fast food place but I stayed on private property.

I just watched them.

Maybe I saved the guy's life.

The cops were pissed dealing with the driver.

The cops took the driver away.

Hope he is ok.

I stood my ground.

I am tired of the Democrats in Congress not standing up to the Republicans.

This Bannon thing.

If the Republicans get back in power in Congress we are lost.

This is the reason my Grandkids are in Canada.

Their Mom is afraid for their future in this country.

People will not show up to vote in the midterms if the Democrats do not show a spine.
