I'm simply making an extended list, as I sometimes look back at posts just to see what is/was happening in life at certain times:
- government shut down (federally) is now extending longer than anyone dreamed possible. A young man (husband and father) that we watched grow up is being impacted. His widowed Mom is sharing what limited resources she has in hopes they can get by without going under. It makes me mad.
- sat in on traffic court at Johnston county with a young friend. Thankful and grateful for an assistant DA who truly cares about people and is hopefully lighting a fire under some people to do what should have been done 5 years ago. I'm still flabbergasted at the number of people who were there with serious traffic citations.
- The people of New York have stooped to a low I never dreamed possible with their new law allowing late term abortion...so late that it can even happen on the baby's due date. May God have mercy.
- I feel as if insurance and medical tests are out of control in this country. Meds prescribed by doctors for patients are often outrageously expensive and unaffordable, and insurance companies are dictating what tests doctors can and cannot order, even though they are not doctors and have not examined the charts of the patient. Our health industry is one big mess.
- and while we're making progress with several on-going projects, at the moment I feel as if I'm simply hopping along the path, while the goal moves another step away with each amount of progress made. Bobby said as long as it's moving at the same pace I am it's all good. I hope he's right.
- and while I did not make it outside this past Sunday night to see the lunar eclipse, the full moon before we went to bed is was spectacular. I'm feeling better; Bobby has my cold; Mrs. Bryan has a kidney stone.
And that's this week in review...
