Notice how at the very end she moves forward and blocks his view and his left hand is immediately on

her to move her out of the way. He'll forget every single one of the MAGAs the second they don't serve his agenda and, dog forbid, they take any of the narcissistic limelight away from him.

Both grandparents on my maternal side were German immigrants so no surprise receiving 41% Germanic

Europe and 9% Western European with Ancestry.com test.

On my paternal side, I received a mix of mostly Scotland (surprise), Ireland (surprised it's not higher percentage), Wales (no surprise) and Sweden/Denmark (no surprise). The unexpected Scotland percentage makes me think one set of my Irish 2nd great grandparents were Ulster Scots. They immigrated from Northern Ireland in 1852 (surprised it was that early). The other set immigrated from County Mayo in 1874.

My husband has a persistent detectable amount of Indigenous Americas--North that confirms family lore. The surprises are his very English (with a bit of Irish) maternal side having a hefty percentage of Germanic Europe and being related to countless descendants of late 1860s Mormon Utah settlers when my husband's great grandparents didn't even leave England for Central New York until 1882.

Also, his Y-DNA test at FamilyTreeDNA resulted in no matching to anyone with his surname. It seems his direct paternal line 2nd great grandfather was either not the father of his great grandfather, changed his surname or there was a name change earlier in the line.

I have 3 sets of Funko Pops: U2 ZooTV tour, Outlander and Wizard of Oz.

They're out of their boxes and set on floating shelves in corresponding themed bedrooms.

I just ordered Baby and Johnny from Dirty Dancing. that movie.
