After a busy day I picked Lori up in Frisco about 5:15. An hour later we were home. Jag had gone to Lexi’s and we heard him come in around 1:30 am. Ty and I tried to get on line at 7 pm to pre-order the PS5 but they were sold out before you could blink. Scalpers use computer bots (programs) to grab them all and then sell them for 2 to 3 times what they cost to kids that have to have them. We’ll wait. Hope they all lose money.
Today we’re going to Lee and Margret’s at 2 and we’ll eat around 4. It’s overcast here this morning but no new snow. Not your typical Thanksgiving but there are things to be thankful for. If you’re healthy or have a job, you should be thankful. If you have food on your table, be thankful. If you woke up! Be thankful. Things can always be worse. Still I get it, things are bittersweet. We will come through this, hang in there, shouldn’t be much longer until we turn the corner. Say a prayer, it will help.
Today starts the traditional four day weekend. I remember as a kid looking so forward to this break as after this you could count the days until Christmas. If you’re a kid, this is a magical 30 days! Now kids get the entire week off and this year, well, we all know. Lori would like to get some lights on the house today, we’ll see. Around us you can see lights popping up more and more every night.
Politically we now have Trump allowing the transition to begin for the good of the Country but there are still legal challenges. Ironically and predictably, Biden is now calling for unity which one would expect but I think it’s going to be a while before half the Country embraces the Dems. Good news is the riots should stop. Had it been the other way around, there would be blood in the streets. Can you imagine if Trump was declared the winner by the media? How do you think those folks on the left that have been rioting for months would be acting? Hmm. Oh well, the good news is time doesn’t stop. Things always move forward and things always change. Not always for the best but nothing stays the same so we’ll see what happens.
Time to go. Hope you all are well. Be safe and think for yourself. Don’t listen to the hypocritical politicians as they have one set of rules for you and one for them. An example here was our Mayor of Denver told everyone yesterday morning to stay home and not travel anywhere then right after his news conference, proceeded to get on a plane to Houston and Mississippi to go see his family, ha. He’s received tons of negative feedback rightly so and of course in typical democrat fashion, is now apologizing and asking for forgiveness and wants to move forward. Unbelievable. We shouldn’t be surprised though. In recent weeks, mostly democrats from the Governor of California to Nancy Peolsi and many others have put authoritarian restrictions on us which don’t apply to them. They seem to have forgot, they are elected to represent and work for us, they are not our leaders. Time to kick them all out and start fresh. Good God, God Bless.
