for a little releif, ignore trump and stories about him for a while. Maybe until next Saturday.

The country will still be going to hell in a hand basket without you but you just may have a nice week.

We need to be concerned for sure but one week off will not make things worse.

A positive might be that something good happened while you were out and you get pleasantly surprised.

or a hemorrhage, or a vicious dog about to take your child - somethings are dangerous to ignore.

it was a beautiful day and I love to go to tag sales. I played some of my favorite CDs and felt the stress level decreasing. Then I met a kindred spirit who was setting up her sale and we vented for a solid 15 minutes before I bought anything. It kind of broke the spell, but it was nice to know a total stranger in a different state knew as much as I know about the Russia investigation, kids being separated from parents at the border, etc.
