Reinventing yourself.

I am wondering if some of you had the necessity at some point, either as a middle aged adult or already in your senior years to start again from scratch... Perhaps because of illness, divorce, death of a loved one, job loss, spiritual, mental or emotional issues, etc. How did you do it? Did you find the power to reclaim your life? To rebuild it? To make age and past experiences count little and restart with a fresh, youthful and positive outlook?

Maybe your story and uplift and inspire someone who might not currently be seeing light at the end of the tunnel. Hope and encouragement are important in times in which the state of our Nation combined with life issues can be a lot to handle. So, if you have a story to share, at least I would love to read it!

According to Andrew Sullivan, Trump erased Obama's legacy.

Obviously, I disagree with his blaming of us liberals for the racial divide (covering up for the Trumpists), but interesting and sad reading nonetheless.

Gas prices!!!

OK, this is getting ridiculous and where's the outrage? Under Obama, conservaturds all over the country were making a big deal about them and scored big political points. What the hell is going on that we are not making a big deal out if this! Our side needs to start hammering that into the consciousness of America. Trump's economy sucks, and we need to make people feel it. It's $2.80 around here, while it was $1.80 at the end of Obama's presidency. F'n ridiculous!

To all conservaturds out there: How are these gas prices working for you?
