To be honest, I do not like wearing a mask, even though mine has pineapples on it. But since I do not want to unknowingly give COVID to someone, I will continue to do so. I also do not want anyone giving the virus to me. When buying supplies, I have noticed that fewer people…
I am off from my part time job today so what will I do? Started the day with Bible study, will write this blog and work on a new book I am writing. Tomorrow will be more of the same with chores added in. Sunday I will attend our church online and rest. I have…

OCTOBER IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH During the years of helping victims of domestic violence, I’ve constantly heard “Why does the victim stay?” There are many reasons with one being that leaving may trigger fatal intent and the victim ends up being loved to death. I’m tired of this question so let’s talk about the…
The weather and media trauma have been covered. Now I step out of my comfort zone and express my opinion on political coverage. I do not watch debates and do not know if what I would look for would be expressed. I’m only interested in politician’s thoughts on the issues and I don’t care about…
UPDATE: Last weekend the shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio occurred. My heart is breaking for those who were killed, injured, their families and communities.
