Heavy Sigh

Well, Iowa has been open for over a month with no ill effects.  My husband's hospital is closing the covid clinic because there are no patients.  It should be a joyous time, but as you all know, things are much much worse.  Even after 9/11, I thought my country was invincible, that the republic would stand and our freedoms would remain intact.  I am doubting that for the first time in my life.  Too many people I know are pretending antifa is a good thing.  I don't even know what to say.  Burning the country to the ground is a good thing?  A good friend actually posted something comparing them to the men who stormed the beach at Normandy "they are both fighting fascism!"  I have no words for such complete foolishness, I can't believe someone I know believes this lie.

July 4th has always been my favorite day of the year, antique shows, hot sunny weather, hot dogs and popsicles all crowned with a glorious fireworks display.  I could just cry that we aren't even going to celebrate as a country this year.

  1. My heart breaks with you Elaine. If someone had told me this would be happening a year ago...heck, even 6 months ago...I would have said no way. All I can think of is what Mark Twain once said "It is easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled." Wanna come to my house for hot dogs and popsicles?? :-( ~Robin~
