As you can see, I don't make a lot of posts. I have a hard time expressing the things that are worth expressing. It's not because I don't want to, or don't have strong views or concerns. It's just that there are so many , that how does one begin. The things that are happening, and will happen are so great, and life altering, that I spin most of the day, because ..this can't be happening, and .. yet it is. AND....I HATE THESE THINGS. I hear planes go by.. I wonder, are these friendly emissions, or sinister. I hear choppers go over my house.. very low, and heading north.. Fort Drum is to the north of me. In the morning, I look at the sky.. how many white plumes will I count intersecting today? Food shopping is a hunt for something we will eat, and we can afford. I look to the news feeds.. will there be an alert every hour.. every morning? What is next?

Then, I look at my kids. They don't need this. They need to play, laugh, fight, plan a party eat a burger and fries. They also need me to laugh with them. Tomorrow, I m going to laugh with them.
