 OMG, hadn't realized it has been almost one month since I posted.  Head in sand works my friends.  So NYE morning we took ourselves out to breakfast to a place we hadn't gone to in a while.  Used to be a certified red-neck joint, lots of gun pictures, mottos and USA flags on the walls and t-shirts.  Good food though.  Was sold to our local "chain" of restaurants with the promise there would be very few changes. And it's true.  Just no guns, and fewer flags.  Also, TV not set to Fox "News" anymore.  On the way in we park next to a car with several MAGA bumper stickers.  The most memorable was "Clean up on aisle 46".  I say to my partner, I hope we don't get seated next to that guy!  Lo and behold that guy was my neighbor I learned when we left at the same time.  Good old Grace.  She loves her some Frump.  I think it's because she never was able to have children and so channeled her grief and sorrow into the anti-abortion issue proudly brought to you by the church.  The same church who likes to sodomize children once they are born.  Nothing like a single mother bringing up some boys on her own to glom onto.  And the hypocrite politicians who would demand abortion if said child not conceived by their holy partner.  I digress again.  We stop at local grocery store on the way home.  As we park I read bumper sticker next to me.  "Live, love, laugh, and if that doesn't work, ready, aim, fire."  Now that one deserves a second look.  I accidentally hit their car mirror with my car door.  No damage.  I truly felt like slamming my door, but I did not.  I go to the back of the SUV to read the bumper sticker again, and found one more.  "If you hit my car with my kid in it, I will whomp your ass til the cops come."  Well, I cannot help but shake my head at that one.  Walk away.  Someone's yelling at me.  Apparently the SUV driver had been sitting in her car smoking a joint the whole time.  I couldn't hear what she was screaming, even when I asked her to repeat it.  HAHAHAHA.  Gave up.  Probably too high, but definitely that black woman was either (a)too fat to pass between cars, or (b) afraid of this little old white lady.  HAHAHA.  Today I realized she might have come after me with her gun!!!!  I lived to tell the tale.  We will be celebrating a New Year dinner with Grace and other neighbors today.  She is very pleasant, and I know her well enough to know she isn't stupid, but I will pivot away from any meaningful convo with her today.  I am back baby!! Again! Again!

Could it be the lack of news in my world?  Could it be the hour spent this afternoon in the salt room with 4 of the best women in my neck of the woods?  Could it be the sauna time this morning? Could it be the massage yesterday?  Could it be my children have all arrived home safely from driving an aggregate of thousands of miles for Thanksgiving celebrations with their in-laws?  Could it be I finished a novel and loved the ending?  Now that I think of it, there were a few more happy triggers that I would like to keep private, if you don't mind.   All I know is the one thing that I can do on repeat is skip the news.  My little brother yelled at me recently to stop reading the Washington Post and I won't be so upset about all the unnecessary violent gun deaths on any given day in the USA.  Made no sense to me at the time, but I might have to give him his props for that one.
