A part of our family just had a granddaughter come in from out of town for the holiday. Kayla is staying at Toni’s, her mother’s home. Kayla swung by Laretta’s home, who is her grandmother, and our sister, showing off herself and her brother’s baby to Laretta.  Nobody was wearing masks.
Laretta knows better, yet felt obligated not to say anything, because of her need to be a people pleaser.  She stated to us she would rather die, than risk losing the love and attention that her family currently gives to her, after many years of deprivation
Kayla returned to her mother’s home, who happens to be Trump supporter. Kayla’s partner, who did not accompany her on her trip to Toni’s home, just tested positive for COVID-19, and called to let Kayla know. Kayla and her mother Toni called mother/grandmother Laretta, crying while they revealed their horrible stupidity.
WELL, Kayla already exposed her family, and ALL may now be TOXIC..
She may as well as been wearing a suicide vest. Time will tell if it detonates.

The Thanksgiving dinner of over 15 family members has been cancelled, and rapid test kits have been ordered for everybody exposed.
L’aretta’s oldest son Lonny, also a fanatic Trump supporter, refuses to wear a mask during his Thanksgiving gatherings, so this family has a high potential for disease. Trump’s pandemic policies, or lack of them, combined with the ignorance and stupidity of many Americans, has led us into this dangerous territory
Trump politicized the pandemic, while underplaying its severity. His lemmings, and the rest of us, are now paying a horrible price for this treason.
“I intentionally downplayed the severity of the pandemic” —Donald Trump
It does not take childish fantasies with their irrational conspiracy theories to understand why Trump lost the election in a landslide to Biden.
THE TRUTH MATTERS, except to the children, and to the insane.
This post first appeared on Facebook.  Most of my writing on Facebook gets zero traction, and just ends up in its virtual morgue, until it reaches the graveyard of this blog site. I have been trained since birth to deal with this, so I am just fine.
We are hoping and praying that members of our family do not end up in the hospital, the morgue, and then in the grave, due to callous disregard of the reality of the pandemic. I am not just fine as I witness these unnecessary risks to health and continue life.
Don’t travel during the holidays, if it can be avoided. Always wear a mask. Keep a safe distance from others. Never occupy a room with poor ventilation with more than six people for longer than about 10 minutes. These are rules that should not be ignored, unless one does not love one’s own life, and the life of others..
Names have been changed, to protect the ignorant.
The conspiracy of silence always takes the unwary hostage.
The ransom payment is more than anybody can afford to pay.
