While Trump was not my choice, he’s our president again for the next 4 years, I wish him the best.

Worst thing about winter in Chicago & it’s below freezing…When you have to leave your place for a while & you have to ensure the faucets drip & cabinets are open! Don’t need a burst pipe when I return to Chicago! 😩
