SQUEAL LIKE A PIG




THE WAR RAGES ON from public opinion about wearing masks or not wearing masks during this pandemic if there is actually a pandemic or not.  Very messed up in a day of information and technology.  The confusion of what is going on.  This was a hoax to destroy our President and our government?  This was a farce?  The entire world was hit with Covid 19 just to get Trump?  What?  The entire world.  I don't agree with the entire world getting ill because they believe Trump needs destroyed.  Open head insert brain.  If you are a thinking Christian then you HATE trump?  

When our President suggested that you HATE him and don't want rallies because you choose to wear a mask then I became a party all my own.  I have had others use the HATE WORD before because I dared to not agree 1000% with our President.  Because I disagreed, I was told that I HATED HIM.  Then the infamous words were spoken in the form of a question, "Do you HATE our President so much that..."  The 'COME LET US REASON' went out the window.

Some think that if you disagree with our President then you are a HATER.  We are to be robots not able to think for ourselves.  We are to be operating within a mind control environment.  Ridiculous.         

Personally, I will not war with you about wearing a mask or not.  I wear a mask.  If I get assaulted when I am at a store for wearing one then I will defend myself by doing what I can to fight off the one who assaults me.   Because I choose to wear a mask does not make me a TRUMP HATER.  If it comes down to this then, I believe our President has succeeded in controlling your every move and thought.  There can only be one way to be and that is worshipping a President instead of the Lord Jesus?  Satan fell from heaven when he wanted to be worshipped over God.   Does Trump want us to worship him?  Squeal like a pig.    

The Wild West has returned to our great country.  It is dangerous out there these days more so then it has been for many years.  

I am not what you'd call an overly involved individual when it comes to politics.  At least I wasn't, but 2020 happened and I have found myself spending hours reading and watching things about our country and  present President.  First came the impeachment hearing.  Then the White House Coronavirus Task Force Briefings.   There was no social distancing amongst the ones speaking.  Sadly the Task Force Briefings became a campaign platform for our President to run down the other side and leave Covid 19 behind in the dirt.  Reading tweets by our President and watching about 80 hours of the briefings where our President did the majority of the talking educated me into not liking what I was hearing.

Controversial discussions about washing hands, wearing mask and social distancing.  Seeing the lead on the Coronavirus Team VP Pence not wear a mask while touring a hospital did not rest with me.  That is not setting the right example.  Seeing our President not wearing a mask out in public, but watching his pretty 3rd wife tell the public to wear a mask didn't settle well.  Recommendations but not a requirement.  This is mayhem when the ones giving recommendations do not practice them.  Mayhem.    

I became more interested in how our President conducted himself making deals before he became our President.  Now I ask if he is giving favors to dictators over blessing allies?  I understand that he admires dictators because he says they are strong.  Why would he throw our allies under a bus?  

He is saying that he was not briefed about Russia paying Taliban to kill American Soldiers in Afghanistan.  Not briefed.  I would like to hear what VP Pence says about this.  

I have wondered how so many turn a blind eye to evil.  If speaking out about evil is bashing the one doing the evil then bash away.  Squeal like a pig.

DARLIN' YOU'RE A PEACH!





Hello.  Yesterday, I got my exercise as I went to Manhattan to shop at HOBBY LOBBY wearing my beautiful cloth face mask.  I did alright for a change.  Pushed a buggy with gloves on and looked at some things all through the store.  ALMOST everyone had a mask on.   



We went to STARBUCKS!!!  It's been over 3 
m o n t h s  since I had something from a store/restaurant/cafe.  Over 3 months.  

I had a ICED PEACH GREEN TEA LEMONADE.  Hubby had his all time favorite, HOT LATTE without whip cream or flavoring.  Split a piece of banana nut bread.  Just now realized it has BOTH walnuts and pecans in it.  So very good.  Between my portion of bread (210 calories) and the tea (130 calories) I had my fix of calories.  Shocking how quickly these add up.  Kurplunk.    

Usually when I have tea it doesn't have SUGAR in it.  I made an exception to the rule.



Twas wonderful.  Drinking my tea very quickly, I should have ordered the largest size they have.  GRANDE just didn't do it.  I don't remember the last time I was so excited about getting an iced tea from anywhere....if evah.

Took Hubby to DOLLAR GENERAL and I stayed in the car.  He came out of the store saying when he does what his wife wants he gets blessed.  He hit the jackpot on the things he needed.  He'd been comparing prices and this was the best price.  Pleased.     

Didn't lolly gawk any and made quick work out of it.  Drove HOME the scenic route and rested in my comfy chair.  It is plain odd to get so weary from such a short trip.  Must be the excitement of being out and about, but having to wear a mask when in the stores.  The added stress of the unknown.

As the evening settled in, I grew tired like no motion tired.  Was a relief to be HOME and in my chair.  Home Sweet Chair.

Home is where the chair is,

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
