Today I'm going to an afternoon tea party at a cute tea shop with 4 of my good friends. We're celebrating a birthday (not mine) and haven't been all together for a while. ☺️

I'm so sorry you fell, @Ancaster and that there was a lot of blood. I fell last month and fractured my clavicle. I only had a bit of blood where my sunglasses smashed into my eyebrow. I'm improving and don't need surgery. I hope you heal well and I hope you do not wind up with a divot!

I think it was Frank Luntz who began the habit of saying Democrat every time, because it includes RAT and he felt that was a good way to denigrate the party. I NEVER say it that way! ETA: I heard John Fugelsang say this election was an example of Christianity triumphing over Christ.

So true! I'm old enough to remember when the supporters of St. Ronnie claimed Jesus for their side. As a lifelong Christian, I was appalled. Subsequently, there was Hatriot radio and Fox News pouring hate for liberals and Democrats into their viewers and listeners all the live long day. Now sources have expanded to Newsmax and even main stream media. All the while they whine that the media is left leaning. It absolutely is NOT. I'm tired of the hate and the hypocritical so called Christians who would run Jesus out of town on a rail if He tried to preach the Sermon on the Mount today. They are more interested in the Old Testament. They don't care about women bleeding out in parking lots due to Trump abortion bans or people dying from a lack of health care or hungry children or separating immigrant children from their parents forever. They claim to support the troops but cut their benefits every chance they get. We are living in very difficult times and it will be worse come January.

Horrible outcome. I've made some changes today. I deleted my FB account. I don't really follow any MAGAs anymore, but I have been wanting to delete it forever and only kept it going because my Mom loved FB. She passed away last year. I just don't feel safe there and it's boring! I have unfollowed all of the fundie "influencers" everywhere, even on snark sites. It's not fun to see them gloating over their orange god's success. I needed a new hobby anyway, lol. I love to read, so reading books should keep me busy. Also talking to friends and my husband. I listen to a lot of political podcasts, but it's too soon to get back to that. I guess I'll up my streaming of shows. My heart breaks for the people of Ukraine and Eastern Europe (Putin wants their countries) and I fear for the Palestinian people - for the whole world actually. 😭

Yes! It's best to avoid falling, because a fall can change everything in an instant. I'm healing well. I'm kind of glad I didn't see it coming (I was on a walk in my neighborhood) because if I had, I'd have probably broken my wrist, trying to catch myself.

I recently fell and fractured my clavicle. I like to manage things by myself, but until my shoulder heals, my floors are suffering!

As a child of parents who had more kids than they could handle, I think it's selfish to have more kids than you have the energy and income to care for!

Small Talk: Along the Hills of East Tennessee

@Heathen- I'm so sorry you are stuck putting up with an employee from hell. I'm retired now, but stories about such employees always put me in mind of 2 women I worked with at the end of my career. I don't know how old your annoying coworker is, but she sounds willfully ignorant and immature. I think keeping as far distant as you can from her and her shenanigans, is your best option. I wouldn't discuss her with other employees, unless it's HR. I wish you good luck. -
I'm sorry you're having a rough patch, @oliviabenson - I hope things are looking up today. It's 80 here and gorgeous, but it's the last warm day for a few days. (Northern IL) I still have fresh roses blooming! The trees are starting to change. I love fall!

That poem was too long and too full of bs. I admit I only read a few lines. (Jill - shorten it up next time. You need to learn to read your audience). The real point was Jill's "loving response" when she "went on FB" and was surprised to read such a loving poem on her own FB page. She's a victim of "spiritual warfare" doncha know? BTW, she's always on Social Media. That and money are her true gods. I'm sick of the way she and Dave are rewriting what happened. She was called out for publicly disseminating personal information that wasn't hers to give. No one has disputed her stance on purity. She's a liar.
