I am thankful we could give some cold weather coats to charity. It's our first hard freeze tonight already 34 deg.

Having new friends visit for a short while. Looking forward to spending more time together, maybe including a second night of trivia. 👇

Someone wasn't happy this morning.
The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Ice doing a drive-by pepper spray.
Totally normal, right?

The racism of this administration and the heritage foundation know no bounds. Removing panels honoring black American soldiers from the American cemetery in the Netherlands, because of a complaint from heritage.

Spot on.

Who could possibly have predicted that people would dress like masked government thugs, and then do illegal things.

Every interest group: businesses, chemical industries, environmentalists, and politicians on both sides, supported the bill, and trump signed it.

Now he’s reversing course, and it will cause chaos.

I am thankful that the heavy rain this morning let up just after we headed out.

That several airlines fly the same route. Had a flight canceled and we were rebooked on a flight that leaves 5 minutes after our inbound flight is supposed to arrive. Yeah... That ain't gonna work. 👇

Hey @democrats.senate.gov

We just kicked donOld's butt on Tuesday, and now you are going to cave on the shutdown and get NOTHING! Way to throw away the momentum and energy of Tuesday's victories. Pathetic.

Nothing to see here, just the usual maga hypocrisy.
Move along. Move along.

I am thankful we could start the process of winterizing Sophyra.

Talking/thinking out loud with a friend. Found a strange line on the boat with an odd shackle in the middle of the line. Could not figure out what it was for. A throw away comment from my friend and BAM I knew what the line was for.

Says it all. They have worked what? 15 days in the last 4 months? Wouldn't qualify for Medicaid according to their OBBB.

What is reasonable?

Who goes to the door, pistol (I’m assuming) in hand?

Shoot first, and ask questions later is what the castle doctrine is all about.
