66 DAYS 15 HOURS 41 MINUTES – To be Precise
Fact checkers need to go out, research and be precise;
The urgency of now cannot be over emphasized.
We have now listened to the two major sides
and their multiple points of view.
Some things I heard frankly were not all that new.
This is why now we need some truthful and great sleuths on the ground.
Reputable and true journalists must report soon what they have found.
I will list for you the relevant issues and I hope I am concise.
Shifting blame, name calling, and sheer partisanship will no longer suffice.
I implore you to read and listen for accuracy, and meticulous reporting.
There are only 66 days left to decide who you will be supporting.
Questions should be similar to these and more:
How many billions did the USA actually receive from other countries?
What finally happened to the second stimulus bill?
With all the billions supposedly attained, why are they bickering over how much and when?
Does everyone understand we are in a recession?
Will the COVID-19 Vaccine be safe for human beings?
Has testing for COVID-19 truly slowed down?
What the real time numbers of deaths and infections?
Are medicaid and medicare at risk?
How are the senators and congressmen and women voting on the most important issues?
Will the USPS be ready to deliver mail in ballots?
How are all social media platforms protecting our elections?
I can think of so many more things that need to checked.
I hope you have questions to add to this list.
I am tired of the rethortic and misinformation.
I am tired of some journalists not asking the right questions?
I am tired of the ranting and complaining.
If you are tired too then you know what I am saying.
I am a mother and grandmother first as you may have guessed;
looking out for the future of my family and friends.
but most of all for We the People of these United States.
Please submit feedback. Stay safe and stay informed.

This Is What I’m Talking About
We can change the world
one child at a time
they follow our lead
they repeat what we say
when you think they’re not watching
their eyes are open wide
Children know kindness matters
and that love should be
unconditional
they will amaze you all the time.

Cotton tail munches on grass
Meanwhile I grill steak.

Thinking About Dreamers Like Me
I found this very different interpretation of John Lennon’s “Imagine”. I just had to share with my friends here at WordPress.

Again
I hate failure and we have failed as a nation to discuss gun violence. Ninety two people die daily from gun violence on the streets of our cities. I hate that we cannot find a viable solution. I hate that we have failed at standing together to protect innocent people like the five month old who was shot to death caught in gang violence and cross fire. I am sickened and heartbroken by this constant violence. I send prayers to all the victim’s and their families.
Again hate strutted in uninvited
Seven guns in hand
no one can understand
the motives behind it all
Mass murder is all too common now
no matter what the reason
Soon the news reports grows old,
Lives are shattered and torn apart
too many stories to be told
candle lit vigils, flags at half mast
cast shadows on the sacred ground
waiting for a miracle to at last be found
fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers
husbands, wives and children grieve
the love ones taken from them.
No one wants to believe
the reality and the truth.
The causes and the motives
unknown even to the most brilliant sleuth.
All of us know what needs to be done,
None of us need special permission.
to act with passion to make peace and love our greatest mission.
