The Monday Post Vacation...

...has got to be one of the worst damn days EVER!!!

Now that that is out of my system I have to say, there is something beautiful about being in the White Mountains with no service on my cell. No reason to check Twitter, no exposure to the rantings of a lunatic. It's nice. It's pleasant. Now I'm back to the connected world and I don't know that I like it all that much.

I looked up actions and quotes from guilty people and it's so strange to see that Trump's behaviors and tweets match to a T.

He's so guilty that he's trying everything to stay to afloat and it's just scary.

I see my kids do it. I ask my son, "Did you draw on the wall with sharpie?" He goes, "No, it was my sister." I ask him, "Are you sure you didn't draw on the wall?" He says, "No, I said it was my sister!" Then he throws the Sharpie and proceeds to have a tantrum...he's three.

Trump is doing all the same things, and more, that Nixon did! It's madness!

He really thinks he's above the law. This is what happens when we don't hold our children accountable. I fully blame Trump's parents. They just let their kid do whatever he wanted. He's a petulant little shit. How is he POTUS?!

Anyway...I don't want to any work today. I'm tired. I'm cranky and I want my bed.

  1. I agree and wonder why when such behavior is tolerated by those that don't heed the good conduct of maturity and civility.

  2. The key to a good vacation is to return to work on a Friday. Then you get a taste of working again and recover from it over the weekend. :-)

40 by 40: Day 5 Leg Day

Leg day, ahhh, leg day. I actually like leg day because I don't have to do push-ups. I have wrist issues. However, my hamstrings were twitching like mad and walking up to Beacon Hill from Back Bay was way more straining than usual. My first weight check was Friday, May 25th: 183 Today, I weighed myself (a week later) and: 179.5 Goal: 143 Remaining to lose: 36.5 Just seeing the numbers go down is so motivating because I know that what I am doing is working. I am also totally aware of the fact that the first few pounds go away easily and it's the stubborn last few that linger, but I'm on my way. Hell, I've done it before. I can't blog too long today. I have a fire to put out. But tomorrow I have more cardio and while I hate it I know it's important. Talk soon L

Feeling Down

I've been sad for a number of reasons (one of which is that I learned that a close family member has terminal cancer, it's very sudden and I'm very sad about it). I also get depressed when the seasons shift anyway, it's part of my illness, but I'm also sad because of certain news stories that come out. I'm sad that time after time men in positions of power abuse their power, and then other men call the woman coming forward a liar. This is sad, and it's outrageous and it needs to stop. My son is three years old. I say things to him like, "If Charlotte is playing with a ball you want, make sure you ask permission before taking it away." Yeah, it's subtle, but he needs to learn that he can't just take what isn't his. I have to start young because not having these conversations with our boys leads to greater issues. Ignoring it by calling it "locker room talk" or saying things like, "boys will be boys" just perpetuate...

Lies

There is nothing I despise more than a lie. Lies, when repeated often enough, can be believed by the person that fabricated them. Never before in our country have we had a president that lies so constantly, with a base that believes him so completely that has a news station to amplify him. It is horrendous, it is dangerous. We need to mobilize, we need to stop this. If not now, when? If not us, who? These children can't speak for themselves. They're minors. Some younger than my three year old. It pains me to think of either of my children in captivity, away from me, with no clear path back to me. How can they do this? How can any government do this? I think of their little faces, their eyes, already filled with fear of being in a new place, feeling solace only from the embrace of their parents and then the mean men take them away and put them in cages. This is traumatic. A senator, I think, Steve King, said that Abortion is the true final separator of child from mot...
