Barry called Chris today and he was on his way to work. Has a job at a glass company, and I'm happy about that.
I've learned some important lessons about being quiet while craziness is on the loose.
I posted something on my Facebook page, and LaDonna shared it, with this intro, which naturally meant a lot to me.
I am posting my friend Vickie's remarks from her Facebook page. I respect Vickie because she is well spoken and compassionate and she has a gift for being succinct. When Vickie "speaks" in her written "voice," I listen. Today, she wrote a piece about why and who she is supporting in the election. For her to do this is remarkable; because she is the one who is quiet and never calls attention to herself. She always supports other people. She lives her values, so I don't have to ask what they are. I can see and experience them. She is one of those people we used to refer to as "the salt of the earth"--the true friend who is there when chips are down, sideways, and scattered all over.
I would say this about Vickie regardless of how she identifies politically. In fact, I suspect she would always vote for the person who can and will do the job with the most class and least amount of pain inflicted on others.

So I thank her for her willingness to let me share with you what she wrote .
