These are certainly the times that try men’s and women’s and all of us in between’s souls. I am fully supportive of Black Lives Matter, and I finally “get it.” I need to do more to help end 400 years of oppression and injustice against black people. Enough is enough! I have started a modest contribution to BLM. Of course, then we have our “fearless” leader ending protections for LGBQT folks. He has to go, and everyone better be voting for Biden even if it were discovered he was a crack head. No third-party distracting candidates like the last time. It is a little encouraging that he is thinking about what he will do it he loses. So, what have I been up to? I made friends with the lady at the Goodwill store where I bought a dress and a skirt. Even signed up for their rewards program. I will be back. I also bought a bra since I lost all mine in the move. It is cute, but I could have bought a size bigger. I am not that little. My hair continues to grow, and I really need to get to a stylist soon to give it some shape. I am thinking about highlights too. I think I can get away with it. I want to look good, and it would not hurt to be a little more noticeable. I am through with blending in—no fun! I am as good as I have ever been. I am getting my hours in at work and continuing to make friends there. I stay pretty busy. The weather has been gorgeous. The news is somewhat depressing, but I remain optimistic. We are Americans, right. We can make democracy work if we want to. Like Churchill said, “Americans do the right thing after they have tried everything else.” More to come….

When the original series of Will and Grace entered my life on television back in the 90s I was still serving in the Army. It was a different time. If you knew someone who was gay you became an outcast and if you watched the show you became the target for bullies. Luckily I'm not a small framed person and I lived off post so nobody knew my secrets and I'm not one to be bullied by anyone. One thing that show taught me was that no matter who you are it's always acceptable to be your true self as long as you don't purposely hurt others. The return of this hit comedy airs tonight on NBC and I can't wait to see Will, Grace, Jack and Karen reunite for serious discussions on sex, politics and every day life. Enjoy the show GIRLS!!
