They don't seem to be able to talk to each other, or try to persuade one another, without being labeled. :) <br />We'll see what are the real consequences of the first flurry of executive orders......watching carefully. <br />Your quote on unity is a good one, thank you, - unfortunately, not many today seem to like this one: "Without freedom of Thought, there can be no such thing as Wisdom; and without Freedom of Speech, no such thing as public Liberty." (Benjamin Franklin)<br />Love the manly pic of Smitty!

At least two thirds of the country felt refreshed and hopeful on Wednesday. Now if the media could get over their addiction to the former President, we might be able to forget about him for a while. <br />Pat<br />MissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-16023023492416158012021-01-22T08:06:52.992-08:002021-01-22T08:06:52.992-08:00The ceremony was just outstanding in so many ways....The ceremony was just outstanding in so many ways.

That photo of Smitty is quite something; he is a handsome cat! Bummer about the thumb giving you some issues. Hope the pain goes away so you can keep stitching. Yikes about that guy firing off shots. Hope they oust him from the park. piecefulwendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256164519304112032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-55851155729107130202021-01-22T05:24:25.814-08:002021-01-22T05:24:25.814-08:00Weren’t the arts parts so beautiful?

It stirred my patriotism like nothing else in the last four years. This new hope brings with it the reasons why I do love my country. I pray we see a Congress that can find a compromise for the good of the nation and its citizens. <br /><br />Good to see your routines coming back. <br /><br />SJSMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16370080233134944653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-6789444549206439932021-01-21T13:13:47.040-08:002021-01-21T13:13:47.040-08:00After a happy happy tearful day all day, I had gri...After a happy happy tearful day all day, I had gritted teeth this morning when I awoke to wacko texts from my BIL. Jack says we can't divorce his family, but I am not so sure. The salad looks great and the marinade is going on my Must Do list for sure. Since Smitty clearly did not appurrove the 2 shot salute, would he be soothed by knowing that he had a 21-cactus salute instead? What is wrong with people - no gun ranges near by? Seriously, some gun folk are so busy asserting what they think are their rights that they neglect the duties that go with them. No patience for that ever again. gpchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18054854655973836794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-23157681055249930532021-01-21T12:14:15.284-08:002021-01-21T12:14:15.284-08:00Your redwork piece is going to be really pretty......Your redwork piece is going to be really pretty...give that thumb its rest--I dealt with my thumb/wrist for months before I realized that rest was the best cure...<br />Hope they banish that shooter--not good...<br />Stay safe Hugs, JulieroseJulierosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04079686021190332890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-48012399354275003592021-01-21T11:11:57.340-08:002021-01-21T11:11:57.340-08:00I'm happy the news isn't showing signs of ...I'm happy the news isn't showing signs of violence and the day is peaceful. I'm also happy your shoulder is doing so much better and I'm hoping it continues, as well as your thumb stops hurting very soon. Would a nice soak in that heated jacuzzi help? Watch out for that lunatic. The guy is definitely wacko to be shooting a gun so close to where people are trying to "relax and enjoy" life. I hope the rest of your stay is quiet and enjoyable. Enjoy time with Pfelicity. I like your idea of a new mask with camping fabric. I'm thinking of making one this weekend with Valentine's theme fabric.Darlene Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10433442235806365605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-67656225209677194792021-01-21T10:55:11.473-08:002021-01-21T10:55:11.473-08:00Dull news is so refreshing, isn't it?

I need to try my Bisquick waffles with club soda...such a good idea! Sure hope they get to the bottom of the mystery shooter and get his guns locked up. I was so happy there were no reports of violence yesterday, but this may be one!
