vulnerability

Welp, today is mandatory masking day in Dyer County and I saw no more than a handful of mask wearers when the mandate is clearly posted.  Is it up to the store employees to ensure compliance?  That puts them at risk for being attacked by some wing nut anti-masker who doesn't understand science.  You just can't fix stupid.

I'm getting a kick from watching a guy in a bucket with a chain saw attack the trees that are keeping my driveway shady and wet.  It's amazing watching him move that thing around and plan his next move!  If you need tree work, he's your guy.  And he ain't no young thing either which makes it even more amazing.  You can tell he's good at his job.  

Another friend died and it just seems to keep on coming.  Trent was a long time public defender in Memphis until he retired.  That would certainly be a tough gig.  I admire folks who are in that part of the field.  They don't make much money and they never know what they will be thrown their way.  Jail is their second home.

We are, as a country, being driven apart by partisan moves in a time of crisis.  I do believe that is the plan.  Trump's little stunt in Portland will have consequences but why the HELL did it have to happen that way?  Let your peaceful protestors go for it.  If they are looting or destroying propery the locals can handle it.  They don't need Big Ike to do their jobs.  The protests here have been all peaceful with a very active police presence.  You never know when some redneck cracker will pull a gun or something stupid like that.

Little Ms Janie homemaker cooked hashbrown casserole last night.  I do believe that will become a staple for Christmas brunch.  My next dish will be quiche lorraine and triple chocolate bundt cake.  I'm gonna' make somebody a good wife someday.....

Y'all hang in there and keep the faith ^j^
