Gary...I saw some news reports and pictures where people that don't have garages or shelters for their cars wrap them in bubble wrap when a bad storm is predicted. Genius!!! For the record, I would never, ever store anything in an outbuilding other than garden tools and machinery. I've seen what mice and other "things" do to stuff like towels and tarps in my shed. Catter...was this evesong someone from the WW message boards? I know I've seen a few of these over time. Sad..even though they are not IRL friends...cyber friends are very special...what is said is cyber stays in cyber, kwim? The rock told Micheal Moore to find another spot to slog on to! He is a huge waste of oxygen. Why does anyone even give him air time? Well now, Boeing is going to do things to make the new Air Force One more affordable! I love it. Instead of same ole. same ole. no questions asked, it's not my money, the taxpayers are footing the bill...well what is NOT to love? And this just in....another hate crime attributed to Trump supporters was actually committed by a Trump hater. Black member of a black church...burned it....this is so crazy. Lin

Hello everyone
I lost a post here earlier today. I seem to lose posts easily here.
Gary I am glad you got your roof fixed and that there was not much damage.
Cat, do you remember who the WW friend was? there have been several ladies who have passed over the years. Of I don't know all the people who post as there are boards I never read. take care and sleep well.
Lin. I think the progressives need a 12 step program or something. It is good to see that our President elect is on top of things and can trim the waste in the budget.
Now I am off to relax for the evening.

Eve known as Evesong. Yes, WW person. I know her from King's Where Am I game that we played for a while. Eve would arrive in a city and buy a hat or just BUY. We had fun. I think she lived in PA. It was a massive heart attack. Sad.

From LDS Living e-magazine:
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, dubbed "America's Choir" by Ronald Reagan during his first inauguration, will sing at Donald Trump's inauguration on Jan. 20, the president-elect's team and the choir announced Thursday morning.
Trump's polarizing campaign and history, however, left the LDS Church trying to balance strong reactions of pride in the choir's participation in a meaningful act of American pageantry and patriotism with a backlash of anger that it might be seen as a statement of support for the controversial president-elect.
“Response to the announcement has been mixed, with people expressing both opposition and support," church spokesman Eric Hawkins said in a statement. "The choir's participation continues its long tradition of performing for U.S. presidents of both parties at inaugurations and in other settings, and is not an implied support of party affiliations or politics. It is a demonstration of our support for freedom, civility and the peaceful transition of power.”

Saw that, Gary. Good for them. They are beyond any kind of definition I can give them here. Just Wow!!
Saw elsewhere the bashing of GWB (again) and sneering about how "he kept us safe for 8 years". With the add on about the families that lost loved ones in the armed services after 9/11. Hey you, this military is ALL VOLUNTEER, and so many signed up after 9/11....so STFU. The total military lives lost since Obama took office for Iraq and Afgahanistan is approximately 2,500...about half of during the Bush years...and this was during the draw down and Obama's narrative of "no more wars". Anyone remember how all of the main stream media (CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC) would do a DAILY DEAD COUNT of US service members killed in the Middle East and it suddenly STOPPED after Obama took office? It's not like our service members stopped being killed....it is just that the main stream media wanted to walk back anything BAD about Obama. And anyway, Well GWB sure did keep us safe for 8 years or so on American soil after 9/11. But there were how many attacks in mainland USA these past 8 years? Ft. hood, Orlando, Ohio, California and so many that I really don't have time for. This is another reason why TRUMP WON. Hillary lost...Benghazi...disgusting. Another of Obama's election promises: GITMO will be closed within one year of my taking office. LOLOLOLOL...he is now scrambling, 8 years later...to find some foolish nation to take these hateful criminals. Not to mention many of these America hates have been released to programs where they "do painting and yoga to help they feel better". Are you kidding me? They can't wait to get their "get out of jail free card" and find their terrorists friends so they can come back and kill us while we lease suspect it. WAKE UP.

Anyway, will not be around so wanted to say MERRY CHRISTMAS to all. It was amazing today...my grocery store is usually kind of quiet, but today all kinds of people were saying MERRY CHRISTMAS to one another. Love it. Seems we were all kind of cowed down about saying the wrong thing, but now Jimmy cracked corn and I don't care!!! Thanks to all for being a sounding board and a safe place to talk about my hopes, dreams and nightmares.....I am beyond happy that the Clinton machine was derailed....have been hearing from "friends" that they are soooo happy they dodged that bullet. Am so looking forward to making America great again. Although I'm a little sad Laura Ingrahm will not be press secretary, I think she would have been great. But she has a very successful enterprise, so maybe it was not for her. Happy New Year. Lin

I found this hilarious from The Washington Post:
Carl Paladino, a former Republican nominee for governor of New York and an adviser to president-elect Trump, included the death of President Obama and “return” of first lady Michelle Obama to Africa on his list of things he wanted for 2017.
Paladino was responding to a survey by an alternative weekly magazine, Artvoice. Asked what he would like to happen in 2017, he said he hopes that “Obama catches mad cow disease” and dies after having relations with a Hereford, a type of cow. Asked what he would most like to see go, Paladino responded that Michelle Obama would “return to being male” and be “let loose” in Zimbabwe.

Good morning to all who join us today. It is Christmas Eve & Hanukkah also starts today so it will be a time to rejoice.
I have wrapped all my gifts and now I am going to try and relax as much as I can. DD will arrive this afternoon and I will have her to care for. She will stay overnight. DGD will cook dinner today and we wont be doing a lot of cooking tomorrow. DGD & Devin will go off to visit friends tomorrow after we open our gifts in the morning. DS has to go to work tomorrow late in the afternoon. So I will be here alone and I will probably be glad of the peace and quiet.
Peace and Joy to you all.

Merry Christmas to all my Conservative friends. Thank God we were able to take our country back and make this a nation of laws and not of whims by our leaders. Although Trump was not our first choice, he will respect the rights of Christians to say Merry Christmas and the rights of others to worship or not as they see fit so long as they don't interfere with our and others' rights to do the same.
I had a good time at our family Christmas eve party last night. One thing that was funny - I gave each of my sisters a gift certificate for a free pedicure at Gentle Nails. My sister who referred me to them also gave me a gift certificate to Gentle Nails!

Merry Christmas everyone,
It was pretty busy here this morning as we opened gifts. As the day goes by it will get quieter. Malayna, Devin and her friend went off to have dinner elsewhere and DS will go to work later and DD will go back to her care home. We have had fun celebrating the birth of Jesus. I will now be very happy to have some quiet time.
Gary, I am glad you had a good time with your family. I hope you can relax today before you have to go back to work.
Peace be with you.

You think it's funny that someone wishes our President dead and has horrible things to say about his wife? I find it despicable. What kind of person are you?
