Excerpt from: http://claytoonz.com/2023/09/04/rico-rudy/:
This is one of the reasons why we have the “candidates” we do and the rich have no idea or care what the poor need. There is not a shred of humanity in them.
Of Course!

PROMPT WORD: CUP
“My cup runneth over”, a popular quote, no one really knows who it was that wrote, means keeping faith in what you are and have is good. Realizing your life is what you think and do, should any blame only be on you? A positive attitude—feelings, needs, should be construed, again, featuring choices of you. The outsiders try to reel you in, saying you should be wiser, smarter, or thin; your mind of course takes this all in. Influential parents, teachers and authorities, their shaping and molding you, is not in minority. You should be you, body and mind—you, you be in the majority.

Easy Peasy Writes Monoku
The Sunday Whirl
“We can’t trace her, the call went down with the cell tower.” Debris ripped around him, surging with the near hurricane strength wind. A rescue in the woods was getting more difficult as darkness loomed. He passed the information on to the others via his headset. They left the trail and walked closer to the river. The dark rolls caused by the flooding now made it harder to see if anyone was in the swells. Suddenly a bright yellow rain jacket was spotted passing and they threw a rope out to it. The woman in the coat was clinging to her dog and trying to keep them both from drowning. He tied a rope around his own waist and entered the water, grabbed the yellow coat. The woman and her dog and rescuer were safe.

SoCS 9-2-23
You know the time when your favorite candle just is too low in the jar to light? Mine is sun-washed citrus by bath and body and it’s nowhere in the website🤯. Now I have to choose a new scent and finding one that’s not too strong is difficult.
And since this is SoCS I’ll add another hard thing to find and I love to chew is dried apricots! I like the California orangey flat tart ones, NOT the puffed up Mediterranean sweet soft ones. I used to buy them weekly at King Soopers but now they don’t have them either.
So how’s your day going? Mine is great since I just found out my granddaughter and husband are coming over to give me instructions on two plants I bought. She’s a plant guru and I have a black thumb😂.

Thursday Peeve 😡
Many new people including a manager moved into my complex. Apparently they have no problem risking fines as they blatantly break rules and offend other dwellers. I am one of those dwellers and disappointed to see that these people who have animals and their own patio areas and yard space decide to stroll in the front of the complex where my patio is located. The small bushes that were planted two years ago have since disappeared and why? Because these rude people just let their dogs poop and pee on my area because they don’t want to mess up their own areas or are too lazy to use the area specifically for that purpose. I am so tired of seeing this and my daughter wonders why I don’t like sitting on my patio. Sitting out there is not a deterrent either🤯. One woman that I confronted a year ago said yes, I get in trouble when I do that…she still does it…🤷♀️I just threw up my hands🙄.
