There are so many great stories in the news, and I don’t have time to post about it. I think it’s the Virginia governor declared “Confederacy Day” with an entire program and never mentioned slavery…. hello? The Mississippi Gov. responded by saying, “It was no big deal.” Riiiiiiight.
Someone just told my husband at a book reading that black people were not allowed to step a foot onto the grounds of the Statehouse in SC or they were arrested— up to 1968. In 1968, I was 15 years old! Some things are really unimaginable. Now we have the African American history memorial on the statehouse grounds, & it is really very impressive. School buses drive up with busloads of children to come see it. Church people bring their Sunday school classes. It is something to see.
what else? Some idiot woman sent her 7-yr-old adopted son BACK TO RUSSIA with a note for the orphanage to take him back!! You just want to scoop up this child and love him, and put the momma in an orphanage where no child can ever go near it. Put her in jail!! (They might, actually.) Kids come with no guarantee or warraunty!! No perfection guarantee!! Kids have problems!! most of them from their parents, adopted or genetic!! GOD forgive us.
I am hitting a wall of tiredness and it hasn’t left me for 2 days now. End of semester. Right now I feel the next 2 weeks are insurmountable and I am really worn out. Not much I can do about it.
My husband is going in for colonoscopy and all that fun stuff at the end of this week. Life in the mid-50s fast lane…..
