Friday and Exercises Again

I slept well last night again. There is something about having a nice warm cat right up against me that seems to help.

I got up about 5:00 and dressed and got myself ready for the day. I fed Missy both her treats and her dinner and changed her water.

I went ahead and cooked the chili for lunch and left it on #2 in the slow cooker. 

Then I watched the CBS news until time to go to exercise class. Bob had called to see if he could bring Joanne to lunch. We are having chili. I told him that would be fine. I intend to give up cooking for the two of us. There are a lot of nice frozen meals out at Walmart and I will stock up on those.  I only eat one meal a day anyhow except for my oatmeal for breakfast. I am tired of cooking.

After exercise class, I went over to Utopia for Utopiachino and  a cinnamon roll. I visited with Karan and Darlene there. Then I went home to get the chili ready to be served and slice the cheese. .

After lunch and Bob and Joanne left, I worked on organizing my folders again in the afternoon. I also downloaded the updates on Firefox and Java.

I took the rest of the chili over to Marilyn Rutledge for her lunch.

More later....I want to go out to church and make copies of the Church School material.

From one of my friends' websites.

$5,900,000
given to Republicans in 2016 election cycle
$106,000
given to Democrats in 2016 election cycle

( by the NRA ) And we wonder why there is so much violence in today's world.

I am completely disgusted and I blame parents for much of the bad behavior of their children. I blame TV and movies for much of the violence. My teacher friends are all glad to be retired from teaching. They say the kids are impossible to control and teachers can’t do a thing to control them without parents calling and complaining and griping at them or threatening to sue them.


More later...

I got the copies made and am back home now.

I went out to Walmart and bought a week's worth of individual meals for a little over $8.00 plus tax. I know I can eat cheaper by eating by myself and I will just have to use the microwave.

I have checked my mail and my paper is probably here now. So I will go read it.


I watched the Amazon program again. This time it was Samuel Clemmons/Mark Twain story. It was very interesting. At 9:00, Missy and I went to bed.

More later....

Think of those poor teachers that gave their all yesterday. That big
Coach stood and took bullets to save children. What a hero.

I was teaching on 9 11. I went in the bathroom, hit my knees and
prayed for guidance, then went back to the children to do my job.
There was panic. One teacher wanted to leave and fill up her van
with gas. Remember there was a run on the gas stations. I asked
her what would she do when that tank was gone?

Who would have ever dreamed our schools would become such dangerous places. There were heroes at that school. There was a student who was part of the ROTC program. The photo on CNN showed him in his uniform. He was shot and killed while holding the door so that other students could escape the shooter. The report said that his parents had moved to that area so that he could go to a better school because he was such a good student and showed such promise. So many lives ended by one unhinged person who should never have had a gun of any kind. What a time we are living in here in the United States.

That is the truth...too many violent movies and TV shows that influence young minds.

And way too many guns.
