Happy 4th of July everyone! I just finished my homemade brownies with frosting and homemade BBQ sauce. Yummy! I also made some of those Jello Wigglers. Never made them before. Used cookie cutters and they are the cutest things. Those are for my toddler-age nieces and nephews. My family lives about 500 feet from a lake and we will be funning and sunning all day.
Then a parade of decorated boats will cruise the lake. Plus city, stadium and personal fireworks, my favorite part! Two big shows and our own. Shhh, don't tell, but the fire dept said it was ok since we will shoot them out over the lake. We asked.
For some reason, the last couple of years, I have cried during fireworks. I think it is because they are patriotic and make me proud to be an American. Plus since I have discovered politics on the internet about a year and a half ago, I've seen the hate and disrespect Americans out there have for their own country and president. Sometimes I really wish I didn't discover sites like DU. It breaks my heart. How sad to live with that kind of hate that they, alone, can't really change, country-wise. They can only change within themselves. Heck, even as a party, they haven't been successful. But people like that just make me respect our country, president and troops even more.
Anyway, I wish everyone a safe and happy day, even you DU types. Go write your name in the air with a sparkler or set some of those black snake pellets off and enjoy yourself, friends and family. Cheers!
Happy 4th of July, everybody.
My "official" response to any notion that we are beating up on a poor sick man:
