Have we met? I’m a midlife suburban wife and mom - I cope through humor and sarcasm. I try to help other women realize that being 50+, means you’re just getting started. Drop me a note 🗒️ and say hi 👋🏻

Trump: "When you look at football in the US, soccer -- we seem to never call it that, because we have a little bit of a conflict with another thing that's called football. But when you think about it, shouldn't it really be called football? We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff."

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.
