I want to chat about President Trump’s “Executive Orders” that he signed August 8, 2020, because Congress could not agree on the next Economic Relief Act. I have Executive Orders in quotes, because there were 4, but only 1 was an Executive Order. 3 were merely memorandums which are not as strong as an Executive […]
Why can’t the Democrats and the Republicans come to an agreement on the next relief package? As usual, everything is politicized. The difference between the Republican HEALS act and the Democrat’s Pandemic Relief Proposal is $2 Trillion and much of the distribution of funds within these bills is radically different. Here is a chart to help understand […]
The U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security act provided $2 Trillion in aid. Let’s talk about how much money $2 Trillion. If you spent $1 Million per a day from the time Jesus died until now (1 A.D. – 2020 A.D.), you would have spent about $737 Billion. Double that and you still aren’t […]
I feel like I have spent a lot of time worrying about local businesses like restaurants and stores, but every aspect of our society is being affected by this pandemic.

New Year’s Resolutions, I simultaneously LOVE and HATE them. I love a New Year, it is fresh, a New Start. New Year, New You, all of that. But you are still YOU. You have to start with what you have. If you have been sitting on the couch eating potato chips for the last 10 […]
My husband spoiled me and took me to Elton John on Saturday. E.J. is currently on his “Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour” and sold out the State Farm Arena both Friday and Saturday. He has been at this whole music thing over 50 years and still at the TOP of his game. I can’t imagine […]
Two weekends ago, I was out of town for a few days at a conference, then last weekend I was on a Church Retreat with my husband. This is rare. I never leave, but for some strange reason I was gone two weekends in a row. In between, husband was traveling (per usual), I put […]
