When would you say you’ve lived a good life and are ready for the here-after? Some people would put a fixed number such as 100 but when you’re 99 would you believed you’ve lived long enough? What if the longevity around you has changed to 120 would a 100 still seem fair to leave?  Maybe it’s when you complete a mission but then another might pop up just as this one started to end. It could be when you’ve reached some milestone such as seeing grandchildren yet the grandchildren’s special birthday is only a few years away. It could be when you feel you’re suffering from such exacerbating pain but cures can be just around the corner.   I guess in the end you have to leave it to the one judge who truly will decide and hope that the future plans in the here-after are timed just right.

We include President Trump supporters, those who may not have voted for the President but support the institution and those that just want our country to look great in the world’s eyes and are sick and tired of entertainers not entertaining us but insulting us. We don’t have to watch your stupid award shows which give awards to exclusively other zombies like you. We will find our entertainment in other venues. If sports moves in that direction we will turn it off as well (see NFL ratings) or move to other venues. With so many other channels to chose from don’t be surprised if rerun’s return to our heart. If all else fails we can revert to the classics reading a good book or just enjoying the company of our loved one’s including our 4 legged friends.  You can continue your diatribe but it will be to a smaller and smaller audience for entertainment must truly be controlled by those who want to be entertained whether they even dare to disagree with you.

I really don’t want to know it’s just too much information.  I’d rather stay dumb and ignorant then know what happens in your B&B (Bed & Bathroom). It’s not that I don’t care but maybe I really don’t unless of course it has a twist that appeals to my interests.

So it’s not that I want you to stay in the closet about such matters it’s that I don’t have to be the one that is told … or shown.  Or put another way leave the details home and just tell me the big story.

We’ve seen this show played out  but will the President watch it or turn the channel? For in this act of Repeal and Replace (sorta) Bill Cassidy & Lindsey Graham are the main protagonist while Charles Schumer and his Democratic zombies play the nemesis and as we see in most zombie movies the zombies win.  So your hopes for a different ending may not appear to be great especially when the zombies go after Rhino’s unless the President can fight fire with fire (zombies don’t like fire) and change this ending for the good of the American people.

Paul Manafort & Toys R Us may seem very different but they prove one truth that when the “big guys” are after you they’ll stop at nothing to crush you. Toys R Us faces the killing structure of Amazon.com which ships items to your home at such deep discounts that even Santa Clause might get laid off.  Paul Manafort has to deal with an Independent Counsel which has unlimited reasons for their attack. No wonder Mr. Manafort might have felt compelled to wear a wire as he bankrupted his own values to try and stay afloat from this direct attack.  Yet will these bankruptcy save Toys R Us and Paul Manafort only time and a judge will tell for when the big guys come knocking at your door it might be best to have a quick exit.

Shouldn’t we be dreaming about lying on a raft in the ocean not about the sharks that will be looking to take a bite? They say we need our sleep for down time but lately my dreams are full of ups. Whether I’m running from some type of monster (personalities included) or having the fight of the night my dreams are full of passionate and anger. Yet they don’t appear restful maybe because I don’t remember the light cool breeze blowing against my face until it is filled with poisonous darts.  It’s just a bit too ironic that often sleep time is often the most active time of one’s life.

We all have had knife wounds to our back in our lives that slowly had to be pulled out but this one woman I met yesterday was stabbed in so many directions and not only did she survive but is thriving.  “Ann” (pseudonym), was in her words growing up, one of those individuals your parents tried to keep you away from. Immediately after high school she was lost and needed some discipline in her life. so she joined the army reserve. This decision led to many of the ups and incredible down’s in her life which are basically seen below. I felt it was important to share aspects of this story for I hope it will inspire others to help pull their own knives wounds of their own backs and find true healing.

(1) She was deployed to serve in Iraq when her child was barely 4 months or so old.

(2) When she got back her daughter was 18 months old and not only didn’t recognize Ann but ran away from her.

(3) Her husband filed for divorce and sought full custody of their daughter. Which joint custody was finally agreed upon after a lengthy and expensive court hearing.

(4) She was then deployed  to Iraqi again and when she returned felt excruciating back pains.

(5) Ann found the man of her dreams and as things were progressing toward a ring she later discovered that those back pains were stage 4 Cancer.  The treatment required that her ability to bring children in the world would be closed forever.

(6) Ann gave this man the option of leaving her and he instead gave her the ring.

(7) Today Ann volunteers her time at many Veteran Charities and has a wonderful job and life partner as she continues to battle this horrible disease.

You can put it in the bank that Alec Baldwin will win best supporting Actor for his portrayal of Donald Trump although he really isn’t that great an impersonator. Take Tina Fey as Sarah Palin you can hardly tell the difference  or Kate Mckinnon as Hillary Clinton  who had the mannerism and the behavior down pat. Yet this isn’t about talent but about making sure the Hollywood elite  stick it to the White House again. For they know when Mr. Baldwin wins that he won’t stop with an acceptance speech but have his litany of anti Trump remarks in his speech and they can’t resist handing another smack to us deplorable s. I for one won’t be watching this repeat performance that occurs on almost every Hollywood award show.

The arguments couple’s or friends get into are based on divergence from the reality they expect to be in.  You might be friends or lovers with someone who is soft spoken so when they yell it hurts more then from others.  There are those who live life carefree except  when it hits them all and of a sudden they expect the world to be fraught with their drama. We might put up with the nagging of a friend/lover because of the other resources they bring to the relationship but then when those are gone what is truly left?  If we can build more colors to that relationship maybe the reality of their other actions won’t be so black and white and/or hot and cold.
