I realized about 20 years ago who was worth of my attention in my life & who was NOT.

The WAS NOTs were mostly very Liberal-—or worse—not informed at all & didn’t vote, but they sure could bitch alot about the state of affairs in the country.

I started just eliminating them from my life. IF someone called to go to dinner-—I said I already had plans—maybe next time. I quit going on even short trips with them because they couldn’t get out of their own mire with more education & more effort to improve their lives.

I found that I could enjoy my own company without hassles & it also left me more time to find & cultivate friendships with Conservatives.

For the fast few years, I have been more attuned to what people say & I veer away from the Liberals & all their giddiness about giving away taxpayer money. Sometimes I remind them that THEY are free to donate to any cause they find worthy, but it isn’t fair to make ALL the taxpayers support what they feel is important. I sure get some looks!!!

Even relatives. I only deal with those who would vote Trump for the next 100 years. One cousin called on Nov 10 & asked ‘Are you still dancing on the ceiling?” Sure was & AM.

Meanwhile, life is FAR less complicated!!!
