I love my country and worry about it every day. I am a lifelong Democrat, and my thinking is more middle of the road and not extreme left. I live with my soul mate, and I am not looking for another one. Please don't message me unless it's important.
Everyday when I read the news I never fail to be shocked. I keep asking myself "why am I shocked?" However I am. I am shocked and I am sad and I am afraid. How will we ever get out of the mess being created now? When will we see the light at the end of the tunnel?

If you are marching on Saturday, please be aware of your surroundings. I think that there are instigators out there that will cause problems. Such a scary time that we are all living in.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I find this quite beautiful. It is in the Big Sur area of California.

After seeing the news all day, I go to bed and read a murder mystery book. It is not nearly as scary as reality.

What lies around the bend for us? Is this going to be the demise of our country or will we overcome and get rid of the tyranny? I am praying the last one.

We must always pay attention to the news, no matter how bad it is because we don't want the bad stuff to sneak up on us when we are not paying attention.

I get up in the morning and I try to do anything but look at the news. I check my e-mail. I balance my checking account. I play Wordle, Connections and Waffle. I check on the Big Bear Bald Eagle web cam and I share pictures of an Eagle buried in snow. I finally get the courage to read the news.

I am hoping that the sun will soon set on all the outrageous things that Trump, Musk and their followers are doing now. If that happens, I will welcome the sunrise on a new, more liberal, era.

Trump is the school yard bully. The problem is that he is putting our country at risk and he is threatening Canada. Canada has always been a peaceful and friendly neighbor. This is all really upsetting me.

I feel like I am Charlie Brown and I am beating my head against the poor tree. When will this insanity be stopped and who is going to stop it?

I saw A Complete Unknown for the third time with a person who did not see it before. I really like that movie a lot, also.
The Ocean also brings me calm. Especially the ocean in Hawaii.

I want to give a hand to Zelensky, who stood up to Trump and Vance. He stood his ground, and I admire him.

Will our country ever get back to the way it was and be as calm as these waters? It was never perfect but I was not always afraid as I have been now.

Beautiful Garden of the Gods in Colorado. I am thinking that Trump and Musk believe it was named after them.... or maybe they will change the name to Garden of the Kings. Such a scary time.

Sometimes I feel like this is me, sitting all by myself while my country falls apart.
