I can honestly say that the redesign of the White House Rose Garden by Melania Trump makes it look worse in pretty much every possible way: No color or height variation to the plants. It looks bland and boring now.

I bought a pair of Google Pixel Buds this week because the Oh So Orange version was released.

I’ve been wearing them for about 40 minutes or so. Now I know why everyone loves their AirPods so much. These wireless ones are sooo much better than the wired ones from last year.

Something has changed in my sleeping posture in the last 3 days. I know this because my neck is killing me every morning when I wake up. It all started after my afternoon nap on Sunday.

You’ve seen what’s going on in New Zealand? Big surge in New Zealand. It’s terrible. We don’t want that.

Donald Trump on New Zealand’s outbreak of 22 when the US averages about 55,000 new cases a day.

Just completely clueless about the context of so much.

I’m positive Donald Trump has damaged the standing of the United States in world politics for years, if not decades, to come and I continue to be shocked that we, as a country, nominated and elected this assinine, barely literate, man-child to the highest office we have.

Indulging myself a little this morning and listening to late 90’s and early 2000’s pop music, which is basically any song I “hated” while in high school and college.

I like the look of this IKEA dresser with leather drawer pulls. I guess it’s time to do some online shopping to find some pulls for my own IKEA dresser.

August photoblog challenge day 12 is “Sound”. 📷

One of the sounds that I miss during this waves hands at everything, is the hum of a restaurant’s dining room; the clink of silverware and the buzz of converstations.

This tweet sums up the United States' problems right now.

There is the truth and there are people who argue the truth.
Sometimes the people who argue the truth are the ones elected to lead.

The United States summed up in one tweet
