Just a small town girl living in a crazy world and I'm finding my rose colored glasses aren't working any more. Spending time in my garden helps.

@alexhall I did the same and it was the flu shot as usual that made my arm sore for days.

Violence in the U.S. Congress

On May 22, 1856, Senator Charles Sumner, an abolitionist from Massachusetts, was giving a fiery speech on the floor of the Senate. Preston Brooks, a pro-slavery Congressman from South Carolina, was so enraged by the speech that he beat Sumner viciously with a cane, nearly killing him. (1/5)

@philip_cardella @MariaHill I have read about that. It is a hierarchical viewpoint I don't share.
@philip_cardella @MariaHill Evangelicals endorse underage children as porn accountability partners for adults/parents? Seems like the adults should be providing guidance to the children, not the children telling adults they're watching too much porn. As you can tell, I was not raised in an evangelical family.
@MariaHill A child should never be a parent's accountability partner for inappropriate internet or social media usage or content. It's creepy and he seemed genuinely oblivious.

Funny husband story. He goes to the eye doctor and reports he has 20/20 vision. I ask why he can't see his phone. He says well I do need readers at a 2.5 strength but otherwise I have 20/20 vision. Who wants to tell him? I didn't say a thing.
Congressional Republicans wear me out. They are just so relentlessly awful.
It could be a record breaking weather day today in Kentucky. Temp is currently 79 degrees in Frankfort.
