One year she went without health insurance, big deal. She will get health insurance paid in full for the rest of her life while seniors have to pay not only for Medicare, but a supplemental on top of it. My cost next year per month will be over $500 a month for 2 of us, 1/4 our monthly income.

The chevron quilt top is done! Borders are on! This was my friend's vision when he saw the fabric and the pattern for this. It's my first time following a pattern and I really enjoyed it but it was a learning curve.
Red and cream on cream chevrons alternating with floral hexagons bordered by red, green, and red borders. This is a queen size quilt top, unfinished. My fb avatar is in the bottom left corner, looking impressed.

You cannot convince me that frat brothers organically walked into separate police interviews using the same word, “consensual,” and that it wasn’t coordinated. Especially after a witness told police there was allegedly a fraternity meeting to get everyone “on the same page”.

Every member of congress is now on the hook for this. If he isn't removed, the American people will remove him forcibly and a lot of members of congress, mostly the GOP for not doing it. Is that what you all really want? Because it will happen the second anything happens to any one of us.

I made that one with batiks about 40 years ago. It's all put together, a king size. Never got it backed or quilted. It was supposed to be for my mother and I didn't get it done in time. It's a time consuming pattern before strip piecing was a thing.

A Doctor I knew was kind of shy. He came to where I worked and I was swamped. He was there with moral support friend. The 2nd time I went back to their table, he asked me out. I panicked and blurted out no. Went back to find him and he was gone. Still know his name and think of what could have been.

It's an earth home, actually very warm. Very humid inside also. It needs more work than it's worth, but the land might be worth that and you could at least use it to grow lots of mushrooms.

Someone posted a photo of her today in a red rose and black patterned dress with a deep V back and I would so wear that dress if I was 100 lbs thinner! It was stunning. I had a similar one of purple velvet back in the late 80's that I loved the style. Hers was better!

Police violently drag Hispanic grandmother across rough ground-injuring both arms. Witnesses yell she has a serious heart condition & was just released from hospital. Cops kneel on her chest anyway. "They dragged her like a doll," brother said. Incident occurred in Batesville, Texas

Disabled people deserve healthcare, housing, food and support. They deserve accommodations. They don’t deserve to be treated as “less than” because they can’t work. No one’s worth should be tied to productivity. Only the top 1% benefits from a system that leaves “non productive” people behind.

She is head of the appropriations committee, the entity in congress that controls tariffs. Spread that around. She herself could control this in a second. As it is, SCOTUS already said he can't impose the tariffs over 10% and it's being challenged again, the court is too slow. She could do it now.

#CO8 voters told us they are worried about Evans' vote cut Medicaid, Rutinel's shifting positions on oil and gas and agriculture, and the plight of farmers struggling under tariffs. Evans and Rutinel knew they'd face those questions. They declined to appear at the town hall.

#CO8 GOP Rep Gabe Evans and Manny Rutinel (D) have not agreed to a televised debate and would not take voter questions at a televised town hall. So 9NEWS held the town hall without them. Health care was a key focus with one family after another sharing how they're struggling.
