Oooooh! Quote of the Week!

We have a new winner! (And just when I was starting to look for one!)

"I am not going to be silenced by this president or the people around him, because I've given too much in service of this country to back down to this guy."
- Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly

Lee Atwater. Always did speak with a forked tongue.

And for all I know, probably smoked a forked cigar, to match.

Okay, this may sound a little bit weird, but...

I’ve found that the color green can perk me up, or help me focus on healing. I keep an inexpensive green scarf tied to my purse strap. If you’ve got a scarf or shirt or wristband or some such item, it can remind you about this every time you look at it.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
