called to me and I think I made the right choice. I have enough rage to last a lifetime, I would like some live affirming to get me though that inevitable crapola. This was a strange and correct choice for me.

Shared both here a couple of weeks ago but we know how those posts tend to go.

Sorry I didn't see your post sooner.

K&R for you and Jeremiah and Upworthy and All The Good stuff out there!

What a shock. LOL. Bleeding heart liberals who like positive stories about good humans.

Now that my heart is healing, the one thing that still hurts about my separation is that my money flow isn't as good so I can't help other people out as much as I would like to. If I won the lottery, I would be a giving away fool. Of course, I'm told one can't win the lottery if one doesn't play. And my math skills say the same is true if one does play, you know?

joy, joy of upworthy, but for now, I'm looking forward to that daily email. I know all about what's wrong with this world, in spades. It's nice to have someone ferret out what's right with this world.
