Missing you

[sheshe2]

It is a color that symbolizes loyalty, strength, wisdom and trust. Blue color meaning is also known to have a calming effect on the psyche. Blue is the color of the sky and the sea and is often used to represent these images. Jul 15 2019

Take a moment and...





To you all~

1. Even though everything pretty much sucks right now

My heart is full that we got to have Barack Obama as President for 8 years. Bonus: The classiest First Family EVER.

2. I miss him too.

We are all in this together and we will survive.

3. I was such a big Hillary Clinton supporter in 2008.

I grew to adore Obama though. I sure do miss him. I cannot believe we have fallen so far, despite almost 3 million more of us voting against Trump in 2016.

Pure joy!

[niyad]

5. thank you, She.

[sheshe2]

8. Hey.

The breathing works.

So do the memories of all that was good.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

6. Ya well he's not president anymore. We are stuck with a

raving lunatic psychopath.

[sheshe2]

7. Thanks for the heads up, Laura.

I had no clue he was no longer our President.

[calimary]

10. I miss him too.

[sheshe2]

11. Hey you.

I hope you and yours are safe.

Be well my friend.

[calimary]

19. Heart!

Virtual hug!

YOU stay safe and healthy too, my friend.

We're good. I've been keeping track since worried husband said we need to stay in. This is Day 30 of self-sequestration here at casa de calimary. Healthy, cautious, and gobbling up the notebooks with a load of note-taking as I'm tracking the coverage and the stats. Last big shopping trip we had, I bought four more! Serves the Indivisible group's work that I'm part of, in many ways. It feels almost like I'm running a small news department in our Research & Writing team thee days. Thanking Governor Kate Brown for sending 140 ventilators to New York was one of our asks for this week.

LOTTA work. LOTTA keeping track. LOTTA vigilance (on the news AND personal safety and responsibility. We wore our masks to the grocery store on the most recent trip. Some of the store workers were already doing so, too).

12. Thank you

I needed both the memory of one of our greatest Presidents and the breathing.

Keep breathing! Just breath.

[Cozmo]

13. .God Bless President and Michelle Obama

Your presence in our life was a gift we can never repay.

[oasis]

14. Keep hope alive!

16. Back at you,Bill.

17. This is so wrong--OH if we had only LEARNED

Pres Bill Clinton 1992 - 2000, summed up by his wife while running for the office herself; "What exactly didn't you like about the 90's, The PEACE or The PROSPERITY".............Pres George Bush Jr. 2000 - 2008, A needless, stupid WAR, which we started, along with wondering who was in charge; BUSH or Cheney. Ended with a financial crises and "false economy meltdown".........Pres Barack Obama; Restoration of Hope, Dignity, Compassion, Intellect, steady hand-solid head at the economic helm. In short-A call to embrace the better, wiser, angels of our human nature.............Pres. Donald Trump---Clearly NO ONE IS IN CHARGE! If Donald can't lie about it, cheat at it, take credit for it, bully it, sue it, or fuck it, Donald doesn't care. Best summed up by Rick Wilson--EVERYTHING TRUMP TOUCHES DIES........................................................Think I'll keep votin DEMOCRAT!

[calimary]

20. Quite a difference between the "D" and the "R", isn't there!

Just look at it like the gear-shifting in your car. Tells you all you need to know.

"D" for drive forward. "R" for reverse.

[Gothmog]

18. I miss having a real POTUS
