what an uproar

This whole voting for our next president is giving me a headache.
Then we get this UK leaving the EU is giving me a worse headache.
And I no longer know what to think of The Donald!

First off let me say this: sometimes I wonder if it was a big mistake to leave the Queen and become our own independent selves. Some of our presidents have done us good, Others not so much. The state our country has now become we are such a sorry mess I don't know if they will EVER EVER get back on track and I fear for our grand children and their children.


Then we have the UK leaving the EU. Ok now maybe it's for the best for them. But it's hurting our dollar and its dropping the Dow and of course scaring the whole country into running and taking out what money they have before they loose it all.


AND The Donald.......What can I say about him? Well when he first started this race I was all for him. Now I wish I could go back and say what I wanted to say from the beginning Sanders. I wanted him to begin with and I wish I would have stuck with my gut and stayed all the way. But The Donald talked a pretty talk and I fell for it and wanted him all the way. I believed there was a way he could do what he said. and I WANTED THAT. I wanted us to go back to the America we were. I wanted to make sure that us who were retired would have the money we paid into Social Security to be there for us. I wanted the Vets to be all important in getting the medical treatments they needed and not shoved aside. But now listening to him I'm not sure if he would be the right person. Oh I still believe that he believes he can do what he says he can do. But it's the other stuff that needs to also be done to keep us safe that I'm not sure The Donald can do.
I Don't want Hillery that's for sure but at this rate this is what I'm seeing......We elected our first "Black" president ever changing our American history. Now that we have a woman running they will vote her in to change it one more time and put a woman in Charge. after all she was more in charge than her husband was when he was in office so maybe it wont be as bad as we all think.

In our back yard

We have a section in our back yard that is a wild life section. Every year we leave the grass grow tall. Why? Well because we have bunnies that come and have their babies there. Oh lets not for get the Ducks. Yes I said Ducks. Today hubby found out mama duck along with some babies were in our back yard. YAY. I love wild life in the cities. And I feed them and I protect them and yeah I fight for them. Our city comes by and DEMANDS that we cut down our grass. stating it attracts things like mosquities and other unsavory bugs. But I say it also attracts a place for the bunnies to be safe and have their babies (one year we had 3 momma's with about 10 bunnies and 3 momma Ducks with about 9 little duckies). I have an old sand box I use as for water so ducks can swim, and I tell the grand kids to just leave the animals alone.
It's also great for them to see these babies and momma's out there to learn about them. So yeah so city I'm leaving the tall grass till all babies are grown and gone. About middle of July.
