Disgust

This post has been a long time in the making . It took me a few weeks to be able to find the words for how I feel.

I am totally repulsed by our President. I was never a liberal.  However each day that I hear about President Trump and his unpresidential behavior I become more liberal.

I do believe that athletes should stand for the National Anthrm. However I don@t approve of our President referring to them as SOB’s.  It is unpresidential. He thoroughly lacks or does not want to understand the Constitution.  People have a right to protest whether we agree or not. I also have a problem with the way that the President has handled the emergency in Puerto Rico. These people are American citizens and deserve all of the help that we can give them.

How do you feel about these things?

Texas

The situation in Texas is unreal. I have friends who live in Houston and in Beautmont.  The devastation that they are facing is unprecedented. I complained that we did not have power for a week during Hurricane Sandy.  We were amongst the lucky ones. Do you have friends or family in Texas?  If so how are they doing?  Please share. I am anxious to hear how everyone is.   Ugh.

On a lighter note I am enjoying my Labor Day Weekend. The weather is not very nice but I have gotten a few things done in my apartment.  It's nice to have a rainy day once in awhile. What are your Labor Day Plans. How is your weather?  I hope every9ne has a wonderful weekend

Old Times

Every once in awhile I feel the urge to look at my copy of the Preppy Handbook.  It's interesting to me that many of the brands mentioned are still very much in vogue and timeless.  The once brand I really miss is Pierre Deux.  I used to love all of their bags and pillows.  Is there a preppy brand that you miss?  Please share!!! I am anxious to hear from you!!!!!

Great Etsy Find

I love Etsy.  It's nice to give a boost to small business owners. The Band It Up Boutique is no exception. They make wonderful headbands in all colors.  They are great for the gym and for everyday wear. Check out their Etsy store.

Fun Sandals

I had to share these fun Steve Madden Flip flops .  I bought them at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale at www.nordstrom.com. They are so girly and comfy.

This and That

This past was brutal. It was almost 100 degrees for the past few days.  I hate the heat and the humidity.  The fact that I have breathing problems does not make the weather better. How was the weather where you live?

It seems that everyone I know has a big problem now. Whether it be illness, illness of a parent, or various other things it's been a rough week. I hate to see people in physical or mental distress.

I will get back to regular posting tomorrow.

Photos

Going through old photos makes me sad. Sometimes I cannot bear the thought of it.  Last night I was searching for something else and found this photo of Mom.  Do you have trouble searching through photos?
