I lied to you...

when I said I was going to vote (in VA redistricting election) the following day. The next day, I could barely get out bed (chr. fatigue syndrome) Yesterday, I was up all day and walking pretty good.
Today, an Angel appeared, helped me make myself presentable to the public; another Angel came, drove me to the poll; and now there is at least one blue vote in this sea of red where I live.
After voting, we went to the court house and I picked up an application for a name change!
It was close to 90 degrees outside; I have eaten ice-chips that were warmer than my feet, hands, neck and nose. Promised my Angel that while I am already cold that I will keep breathing until I get this done. If I quit breathing before I get everything changed, it will be her problem, not mine! Hee-hee!

She treated them like her parents. We still keep in touch after their passing. The ladies who do this type of work are truly angels on earth and, I believe, will also be angels in Heaven. They’ve earned their wings.

Good luck to you.

Preferably, outlive the head MAGAT, Even if you feel you're not up to participating in that level of celebration, you can anticipate enjoying it by proxy on TV...

numbers of devoted caregivers is ,or should be,lauded worldwide,everyday.

Irrespective of race, color,or creed..human compassion is what elevates each of us above the beast of the field.

This is the whole of the law..
