My Sometimes-Long-Winded Thoughts
|
I am much,
much better. Did 2 loads of laundry. I took a short nap about 2pm and stayed
up until 10pm…almost back to normal. Seven US
Representatives in the house have been notified they did not file the necessary
paperwork on stock purchases while in office. Only one responded to the press.
This is not leadership. There is crazy
stuff going around about the vaccine. Here’s two…first Mike Flynn, was at a
meeting and said that he read that somebody is going to put the vaccine in
SALAD DRESSING. Then another crazy reported that Smartphones that are upgraded
will no longer open if the owner is not vaccinated. We are living a crazy
world. Several busses
with Haitian refugees kicked out the driver and took the bus. Another bus had
the windows kicked out so the refugees could run. Now busses have a high-risk
escort as they deliver refugees around the nation. This whole Haitian program
was not well thought out. A study came
out that Flagstaff has the rudest drivers in AZ. Not surprised, but sad. Another concerning
idea…the Navajo Nation has approved Tesla Charging Stations for the Rez, but
the Utility Company has many elders deep in the reservation that have no
electricity.
