A lady always knows when to leave.....
"Miss Ruth was a lady. A lady always knows when to leave." ~ The Film "Fried Green Tomatoes"
This quote from a favorite movie has come back to me many times and rung true in many of my life situations. In 2009 when my mom passed. In 2016 when I moved out of my exes house. In 2020 when I left my exes state....In 2021 it has come up many times: when my sister-in -law passed in January....when I left my brother's ranch house in April and then when I left the mostly toxic YouTube community/click later in the year and who knows when it will be time for me to move on again but I have confidence the Lord will let me know!
You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11

What Can You Do About Assholes?
I had an interesting conversation with my roomate the other day. It was about cast iron skillets and assholes. I said no I did not use soap on the cast iron skillet and my ex used to go on and on about that. He said something like, "cooks are particular about their cook ware" or something like that. At that I felt compelled to say, "I did most of the cooking" (I had so much practice that I was also better at it) To which he replied, "Why did he go on about the skillet then?" I said, "Because he's an asshole" To which he replied, "There's not much you can do about assholes" And I VERY MUCH DISAGREE WITH THAT STATEMENT BUT I DID NOT WANT TO ARGUE. HENCE THIS POST.There are many things we can do about assholes: 1) We can divorce them 2) We can avoid them. When we realize someone is an asshole, we can not hang around them. 3) If they refuse to leave us alone, we can get a restraining order 4) If they slander us, we can sue them 5) As Nadia says here, We can forgive them and it's like cutting the chord that binds us to them which makes us like freedom fighters who 6) Aren't afraid to SPEAK TRUTH TO STUPID. AMEN 7) SOMETHING PROFOUND CAME TO ME LATER THAT EVENING. WHEN WE FEEL HELPLESS AGAINST ALL THE ASSHOLES IN THE WORLD (AND THEIR ARE ALOT OF THEM) WHAT DO WE DO THEN? BULLIES ARE ASSHOLES AND WHEN PEOPLE FEEL HELPLESS AGAINST THEM THEY HAVE TAKEN THEIR OWN LIVES AND THAT IS SO SAD AND UNNECESSARY! PLEASE EVERYONE REMEMBER THERE IS SO MUCH WE CAN DO ABOUT ASSHOLES!!!!! PLEASE STOP ENCOURAGING AND SUPPORTING THEM! THANK YOU! "THERE IS A LIGHT THAT SHINES IN THE DARKNESS AND THE DARKNESS CANNOT AND WILL NOT AND SHALL NOT OVER COME IT!"
PS So maybe I am "dangerous" after all? LOL

Why I’m Thankful for Rats #mentalhealthawareness #suicideprevention (November 30, 2020)
So I was very very depressed before Glad and her pit bull, Blue moved in my house. (September 2019) I had stopped doing Airbnb but still could not find a "regular" job. Also I wasn't in contact with most of my children because our relationships were so strained. (And three of them lived right near me) Then I found out there were rats next to my dishwasher (inside of the cabinet) and they had babies! The exterminators would NOT pull out my dishwasher! I hope they regret that decision because of it I eventually fired them! They were successful at finding out where they came in though and closed off those places and we sawed off tree limbs so they couldn't enter on the roof which was one way they were but then: They were trapped in my house! And I got them with the plastic type trap from the exterminators and the old fashioned messy type which are 2$ at Walmart! (Wood and wire). I also had a safe (in case animals kill it after they eat it because I was going to get a cat!) rat poison but I'm not sure if that helped or not.
Thankfully when I was suicidal I DID NOT KNOW the rats were there (as they probably were already) Blue (Glads dog) discovered them, he kept sniffing by the dishwasher and opening up the cupboard door by it! So I am also so THANKFUL that Gladys and Blue were there for moral support when I found out!
When this video from Lauren Daigle premiered I was in the pit and I felt someone heard me whisper, "I have nothing left" Rescue
I suppose that's why I am an Agnostic NOT and Atheist because that was the only thing I had left: my belief in a Higher Power who it seemed "heard my SOS" I signed up for Betterhelp online counseling but later found it for free at my local health dept in Georgia.
