Jewells of Thought

The power of God was alive in His people taking action on Tuesday. This is also what happens when Americans come together not allowing the differences to divide us into splintered groups. The Landslide Victory was a big message to not only the current office holders of the White House, but also to the world that America still has a fighting spirit of 1776 as we head towards our 250th Birthday in just 2 years. Think of how amazing Trump will make that celebration!

For me the past couple of days have been quite intriguing. Since this was the most consequential election of my lifetime for real this time I tried to go to bed somewhere around 10:30 but the information coming was too exciting. So instead I ended up staying up as long as I did back on election night 2016. I still remember watching Trumps speech in the morning hours from my laptop in my bedroom. Then the next morning I still have memories of sitting at Monicals in Linton looking at the screens and seeing the captions of Hilary Clinton saying Trump was an illegitimate president.

However, VP Harris disappeared early election night without speaking to her own staffers waiting on her. She had her surrogates tell her staffers and supporters to go home and to bed. She didn’t think it was important to Thank and speak to these people who worked hard for her and blew them off. She may have been disappointed, but leaving those people out of those moments when the election had been called seems completely dismissive and disrespectful.

Like I said I stayed up all through this and didn’t really feel tired I knew this was again history being made. I was thrilled at being able to see the election party in Florida waiting for Trump and Vance with all of their family, staff and supporters. It was absolutely heart-wrenching to watch knowing everything that was thrown at them. I couldn’t stop being emotional watching the live feed from West Palm Beach. The only problem was; I was totally exhausted yesterday. I had ideas of what to write but couldn’t seem to type them out plus the absolute relief… of a second Trump Presidency took time to savor.

So when I woke up this morning I thought I would be writing articles early this morning. My Mom ended up having a bad sugar day when her primary doctor checked it this morning. It was actually 500 all because of her lost insurance and the sugar doctor’s office confusing and not fully helping us through this unfortunate experience. We spent nearly 4 and a half hours in the ER today. Hopefully her primary doctor will be able to take over until we get insurance figured out again.

This shouldn’t be so hard. She shouldn’t have lost her insurance over one weekend of Dad working overtime and gaining more income for only 2 weekends. Someone thought that should be the basis of what his take home pay is and decided to judge that his income was too much for her to have her insurance. Honestly I really want to slap the person who took the rug out from under my Mom’s feet. She’s diabetic goodness sake. It’s been truly frustrating, but God-willing better days are ahead.

This Inauguration Day I don’t have a reason to feel numb unless my arm is under the nerve block from my surgery. I still don’t have a surgery date, but I could also be in therapy for my foot on my birthday as well.
