DJT VS. MTG

 

One thing I like more than a Democrat speaking up and moving things back toward normal is a feud among Republicans.

And the president and Rep. Marjory Taylor Green are doing that in front of the world and with no holds barred!

Green is against higher prices and in favor of releasing the Epstein files.

Trump caused the higher prices and has refused to release the files.

What a battle they are in, these once close-knit allies!

The president even called her 'Marjory Taylor BROWN' since green grass turns brown when it dies.

Go at it bare-fisted guy and gal!

You make my day....

Week ending

 

This week flew by.

I've neglected my blog and other things.

Deep Friday Breath....Calm down.

Two visits to Physical Therapy wore me out Monday and Today.

I think I can see some improvement...maybe.

Wrote my sermon today so I should be able to relax Saturday.

I hope so.

Slowing down is always good.

Really.

Try it sometime....

Getting Lost

 

I went to the dentist today who is going to give me a permanent implant tooth in front.

But I had never been there before and had the wrong address somehow.

So, I got lost.

It was a nagging and painful feeling to be lost.

But they called me on my cell and told me where they were.

I was on the street in front of their building!

Being 'found' is a great feeling--even when going to a dentist!

"Lostness" is a big problem today. I don't just mean spiritually--which is important--but politically and culturally and economically as well.

We all are lost from time to time--until someone finds us and brings us back on track.

We must seek to do that for others that are lost in all the ways 'lost' can mean.

Find someone who is lost and help them today.

Rain, rain go away

 

It's rained on and off all day.

And it is chilly too.

Wet and chilly I don't like!

What I do like is how the president was roundly booed at the football game in Washington while he was trying to speak to the crowd.

That made my day.

And I like how people are seemingly fed up with this administration.

That's a good thing.

And I liked preaching yesterday about how 'faith' is fluid--it comes and goes and we shouldn't judge it when it changes.

"Let God figure it out," is my stand-by thought about our faith.

Pain

 

I went for physical therapy today on my right shoulder.

I'm not sure when I hurt it or how--but it's been painful for several months now.

Dave, the physical therapist gave me three exercises to do after asking lots of questions and fooling with my shoulder in a dozen ways.

It hurt some, but hopefully will help over time.

But physical therapy won't put food on the table and the president's resistance to giving full food help for people who need it is more painful than my shoulder can ever be.

Lucky for those in our State, the Governor of CT has funds to keep the food allowances up.

The President is wrecking havoc with our country while claiming it is the best time ever in America.

We must do all we can to help get his policies reversed.

Pain is everywhere--and we are the political physical therapists....

HOPE....

 

Bern gets up earlier than I do, so she knew about election results when I woke up.

"Hope," she told me, "I have hope I haven't had for a long time."

Yesterday's results were 'hopeful' in many ways.

But all the problems aren't resolved.

Next year Democrats need to take back the House and Senate.

Then we can get to work on all the 'problems' the current President and his minions have created.

So, it's not time to sit back and be happy.

Lots of work still to be done.

May God bless our nation and may that work be done....

Voting Day

 

I voted today. Hope you did too.

Just local elections here in Cheshire.

The TV channels started covering it hours before any polls closed! Lots of talk, no results.

One big thing on MSNBC, my news of choice, was how much was the elections about Trump.

He distorted the truth 18 times on 60 Minutes Sunday.

He seems to have trouble remembering things.

I do to, but I'm not President.

His health is in question.

How much does liking or disliking him affect voters.

We shall see.
