We have a new president today, and nobody I like is happy about it. I know some people who are supporters of the guy, but no one who is close to me which isn't much of a surprise. I play Words With Friends with my mother's cousin, who is a very nice lady probably 15 years older than I am, and a Trump supporter. I look at her with her brown skin and kind eyes, and drooping eye bags (that run in our family - woo hoo!) and I wonder, how on earth could any woman - much less an older, darker, more foreign woman than Trump's type - how could any woman possibly approve of a guy like that? How blind or stupid do you have to be to think he would ever even be decent to you or do anything that would help you in any way? Didn't you hear the things he said about other people, and that his philosophy is basically all, "Me" and "Mine" and "Wrong!?" And when I think these things, I do my best to destroy her at Words With Friends. I'm thinking when our current 3 games are finished that I will not play against her any more.
I apologize for that post about my turkey neck skin. It's inconsequential at best considering what is going on in the world and I think I can do better.
What I'm thinking now is that I have to step up. We have a horrible-at-best leader now, and a Republican congress to wave him and his A-hole, hard line VP through to doing whatever they want to do. I need to do several things, at least, including for the planet:
1 - Driving less - Riding Metro 1-2 times a week would be a good start;
2 - Eating less meat - less cow, for sure;
3 - Make better use of our garden.
For people:
1 - Volunteer to help the hungry and/or homeless
Tonight, though, all I want to do is sleep. I'll need to build up my strength.
