    Anti-Communism riots in Cuba

    I have been reading that Marco Rubio is having talks with the president of Cuba now, and it looks like they will be making some kind of deal with the United States before too long . After Maduro was removed from power in Venezuela and the people are now doing better there, it left Cuba with out...

    Mr & Mrs Robin

    I have been checking the Osprey cam at Sandpoint, Idaho, and it looks like the geese are there and are taking over the osprey nest again this year. The nest has been partitioned off, maybe to try and stop the geese from nesting there, but the goose has apparently already laid some of her eggs...

    What's your Weather like today

    We are back to cold weather again today, after all that nice sunshine. Supposed to be more cold over the weekend and early next week, so today, I need to make space to bring the plants back inside until it warms up again.

    Last thing you bought

    I bought a Bluetooth portable speaker that I can use with my iPad or with my iPhone. I like music when I am using the vibration plate for exercise and it helps me to move better as I am exercising and makes the time go faster. I also like soft, easy music if I am just sitting and relaxing, so...

    Answering surveys for rewards

    I am just about done with the last bag of dog food, and it certainly lasted a long time. The Apple Watch study just finished, and I sent everything back, and have been approved for points for that study now. I ordered more Amazon gift cards, but it will take a while before i get them, usually a...

    Too old to have kids

    My parents went through 2 world wars and the Great Depression, so they were both in their 40’s before they had me. I think that is about as old as a person can be and be comfortable to raise kids. Most of my memories of my parents when I was growing up , they were in their 50’s, and into their...

    Protests and riots in the United States .

    Are you sure this is recent, @galty ? I have not read anything about this on the news, and I think that ICE has been doing a good job of arresting and deporting a lot of the illegals now. We are not seeing it on mainstream news about ICE because they just follow whatever the paid protesters...

    Journal of a perennial optimist (part 2)

    I am so happy to be having spring weather, and plants are getting buds and daffodils are blooming ! I always look forward to Spring ! I have been starting tomatoes and herbs in the aerogardens, and now it is warm enough that I have moved some of the larger ones into pots and have them outside...

    What's the Best Thing that Happened to You in the Last 24 Hours?

    Have you ever had a pawpaw , @Mary Stetler ? I have never seen one in a grocery store, but read that they taste a little like a banana. I thought about getting one, but it takes a long time to get fruit from a tree, so I have been sticking to smaller fruits, ones that can grow on a bush. I...

    Protests and riots in the United States .

    We always have the same looking paid protesters out marching, every single time that something happens, especially if President Trump has anything to do with what happened. The protests are not organic, even though they are billed as being that way, and they are funded protests with paid people...

    The Iranians are celebrating the return of freedom after almost 50 years

    After failed negotiations over and over with the Ayatollah in Iran, it finally came down to an air strike to remove him from power. The Iranians were getting ready to send missile to American bases, as well as ones in Israel and several other countries, and when they were in a meeting together...

    What have you done today?

    That is wonderful that the treatments are finally over, and you do not have to do that as often now. Hope that your husband is doing better ! It is nice that we are starting to see spring happening and can go outside and do more things with the garden and yard.

    Exercising

    With warmer weather and spring coming , I am able to exercise more now, too. Mostly walking is what I do, but I also try to use the Vibration Plate each day, which helps with lymph drainage , and also exercises almost all of your muscles. It really helps my balance issues, too.

    Trump latest: President says he will raise new global tariff rate to 15%

    Here is an excellent video from Glan Beck, and he explains exactly how tariff work, how they can help a country, and why countries have used them. He went from an anti-tariff viewpoint, to a pro-tariff viewpoint, once he researched and understood what tariffs can do for our country. By having...

    Mexico is under attack by the cartels !

    One of the top people in the Mexican cartels was taken out today, and the cartels are attacking several cities in Mexico, and especially the airports. People are being told to evacuate if possible, and shelter in place if they can’t get out, and live near one of the cities that is being...

    Man, 20, stabbed to death at Northampton skate park named UK

    That is what I was thinking as well, @Don Alaska . At least here, now ICE is getting these criminals deported as fast as they can catch them, but out is going to be a long hard job to get them all.

    Trump 2.0 - What are your thoughts?

    Apparently , someone tried to attack Mar-a-Lago t=last night. They had a shotgun and gas can and were shooting at the building, and apparently also at the Secret Service and Deputies, who ended up having to shoot the attacker. Not much is known about why he did it at this time. President Trump...

    Blood pressure

    The watches do not track blood pressure yet, at least not the Apple Watch. However, I think that is what they were working towards with this study. For a month, they had me wear two watches, one on each wrist, and after two weeks, swap wrists with each watch. So the watches tracked whatever they...

    Man, 20, stabbed to death at Northampton skate park named UK

    The link won’t let me read the story. Does it say whether these stabbing were done by the illegal immigrants or by native British citizens ? Maybe they are not illegals there, like here, but what I meant was by people who came as refugees or whatever into England, and not native born ones...
