The Ironic Cherry...: July 2015
http://theironiccherry.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 14, 2015. When Nikki Became a Hero. Once again today I heard a news commentator refer to Nikki Haley's heroic stance on taking down the Confederate battle flag. It has me worried. You know, they say even a broken clock is right twice a day. That makes it one more time than our governor has been on the right side of a debate. She has opposed a gas tax during a time of lower gas prices while our roads and bridges crumble, missing a jobs opportunity that would also bring much needed infrastruc...

The Ironic Cherry...: December 2014
http://theironiccherry.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 29, 2014. Back in the day when libraries were funded because books. Except that over the years our library has cut back on their purchases. Especially for books that are not best-sellers. You can always find copies of Bill O'Reilley's latest tome, but some books disappear before we ever see them. Painful, awful decisions about what books not to order, and of what books to order only one copy. People who are interested in abortion rights won't know it exists. Imagine this happening on way...

Ruminations from the Empty Nest: October 2014
http://ruminationsfromtheemptynest.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Ruminations from the Empty Nest. Freedom with a dash of ambivalence. Sunday, October 19, 2014. On the Street Where I Live. Bizarre, despite Sunday morning target practice. I would like to offer some proof to the contrary. Hours later, we were enjoying a glass of wine on my porch when a big SUV began to drive by, backed up, and then pulled into my "driveway." It was the only car that we had seen in the hour or so that we had been out front. I wonder who that could be," said one of my friends. I had been d...

Thankful.to have a job? Fighting for Alexis. So She Can Fight for Us. Mrs Potts Confronts the Enchantress Who Cursed Her and the Other Servants. Ruminations from the Empty Nest.

The Ironic Cherry...: Why We Hate Our Government
http://theironiccherry.blogspot.com/2015/08/why-we-hate-our-government.html
Saturday, August 1, 2015. Why We Hate Our Government. I came back from my two-week hiatus from red state ignorance to a letter from Federal Blue Cross (FEP). In a letter addressed to my deceased husband at my address, at which he never lived, I (he) was told that the Office of Personnel Management. Had instructed Blue Cross to terminate his family health insurance effective 11/16/14, which happens to be the day of his death. Each of us has a story of government bureaucracy, and this one is currently eati...

The Ironic Cherry...: The Wrong Fight
http://theironiccherry.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-wrong-fight.html
Saturday, August 15, 2015. Looking back on it, Obamacare was inevitable, because President Obama made it so. Regardless of the hurdles, the absurdities of the Democrats, the rage of the Republicans and the dollars of the corporations, he was going to exert every ounce of his power and determination until the Affordable Care Act happened. Until we want our reproductive freedom more than the crazy people want to deny us, we will continue to roll down that hill to the inevitable crash. Was orchestrated duri...
