SIRIUS XM RADIO, I PAY FOR..MY..MUSIC
NOT CHRISTMAS MUSIC ON EVERY STATION
It happens every year and every year I fall for it. The Christmas music on radio stations I pay for. I have to "Soul town, The Grove, Backspin [don't judge me], Classic Rock to name a few. I enjoy my subscriptions throughout the year, but when it's Christmas time!! OMG. There is a certain annoyance about this music. Whether it's the jingles or bells, nope, I had enough. When it starts in October before I've had my halloween candy then November before I've  had my turkey to say the least, this music genre starts.

      I understand why I have grown to hate/dislike this holiday season. My mother loved to cook for Thanksgiving and everyone loved her Thanksgiving, especially her turkey and dressing/stuffing. [Stuffing goes in the turkey;dressing is backed on the side]. When it came to Christmas, my father was the big kid in the house with the decorations. It was a project with the lights and those hot ass bulbs. If you broke one it would mess up the entire string of lights and you would have to start from the beginning and find that 'out' bulb. This is the bane of my existence.
      I'm working on this issue, in my own time and way but I don't need to be annoyed during this season of grief for me by Christmas music from the 1950's and 60's. [The Temptations are an exception].
This is why I pay for my listening pleasure and not to be in constant agony through my ears! [ba-humbug]

SOUTHERN CHARM

I've been in the south a bit too long. It took a few minutes to figure out how to pronounce this flavor. New Yorkers know my struggle. I blame some of my country neighbors.

PUZZLES

Growing up we girls used to spend a lot time in the winter months putting together  puzzles. Different types of arts and crafts to occupy our brains so would not die from boredom.
A few years ago I taught one of my grands about the agony of pursuing completion with only a picture with broken pieces to put back together. For me, it was fun. Him not so much 😙

Vote 2016

Today will be the 10th time I vote for our POTUS. It is a historical time in this nation’s existence again. The fact that America’s president is supposed to be the leader of the free world and just now getting around to excepting a woman being qualified to hold the position tells the world just how much the USA is behind. Ignorance will have one missing out on progress to say the least.
I have voted since 1975, this year is the worst to date of the ‘smut’ that has been across my television in recent years. I thought the Romney/Obama was bad, this one guy has insulted every type of American, yet he still has a huge following. This is telling the world America is going to hell in a hand basket! If ‘we cannot fix our ‘issues’, how can we ‘police’ the middle east or any part of the world? Who should listen to any of our Ambassadors from the USA?
It’s not like you can hide that relative in the back room until company leaves. There is a represent vie running for office who is supposed to be speaking for the masses, who to some of us sounds crazy. “building a wall!”, not even specifying for which border, but the USA automatically assumes the southern border. Let me remind you that most of this nation’s land comes from the ‘First People’ ‘Mexican’ Coyote! America stole it in the first place.!!
What about the Northern border? Oh, wait you like them, they come from Europe as well, commandeering land from the ‘First Nations as well?!?
America’s dirty big secret is being exposed to the world. More skeletons to fall out of the closet in the near future. Our young population was raised in the cyber world where they can check and verify everything. Unlike we ‘baby-boomer’ had to listen to our parents, for better or worse, what they had to say until you could make your own decisions.   
I digress, GET OUT AND CAST YOUR BALLOT. I don’t really care who you vote for, just not that dude.
