As much as most of us would like for politics to be improving all of our lives, it seems for some of us that is not the case. Look to Florida, look to Texas, look to Ohio, even look to Indiana. Women’s rights are in jeopardy with the extreme limits on abortion. Now elected Republicans… Continue reading Nothing New in Politics

Traveling again to attend my nephew’s dedication (christening). So off to bed early to be able to be wide awake for it tomorrow morning. Happy Saturday everyone.
