The Good, the Bad, the really really Ugly.....

 

The absurdly ugly.....

I abhor politics.  Politicians, for the majority, are vile creatures that have no scruples, morals, or decency.  Even if they begin their careers with all of those things, they are wrenched from it in short order.  

And this week it appears that there are quite a few Americans that are insane.  Breaking into the White House, destroying furniture, attacking the WH police.  I know that I'm not the only one who was horrified.  This is not the America I know and love.......and perhaps will never be again.

The Good.....my solace in this crazy year has been my faith.  At every ugly turn of the virus and everything else, this place calmed me.  Made me feel whole.  Soothed my heart, created joy.  It is quite indescribable.

The Bad ~ you figured that out, right?  Is there anything that has changed our lives more than this teeny tiny microscopic virus?  There's really no way to know what 2021 holds, but it is my highest hope that it will no longer be ruled by the Covid virus....at some point!  

Love, 365

  1. We all looked on incredulous. How could that happen in the US. Thank goodness there will be a changeover v soon. I'm sure the next one is just as you describe all those politicians but hopefully he is saner.
    The church looks like a sanctuary. Glad that you find peace there .

    1. Last week was one of the many times (in the last 4 years) that I ashamed of America. Eh. We will see. Hopefully our new administration ~ no matter how much we may dislike his policies ~ will not be a lying, egotistical blow hole. :-D

  2. I read on Twitter that the insurrection was perpetrated by the guys from Duck Dynasty and a guy in a Chewbacca bikini. Pretty much.

    I am disgusted by the huge amount of lying and bullshit. Right now it's from the R side, but it's been the D side in the past and will be again.

    NONE of them are there for anything other than self-advancement.

    I am hoping that my employer will find a way to get us vaccinated, or rather former employer who still wants me to come back at some future date.

    1. Yes, it is a problem both "sides" have. Let's hope they get the vaccine out there! My sister was online trying to sign up for the vaccine, and all the spots were taken in 6 minutes. That is one dumb way to do it. Here in NM (not that we are more technologically inclined or superior, haha) we sign up through the state and will be notified when we can schedule. I don't have that issue because I work in healthcare, but we are waiting for Romeo to get the call. I hope it comes soon, and that you are able to get it soon too.
