Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

A Great Black Friday Suggestion

I think we would all agree that Black Friday food specials would be better than a big TV at this time. I like this idea.

This Is A Test, This Is Only A Test

All the phones across America received this national alert test message today. It was sent in English and Spanish. It’s good for this to happen so we are ready if something really happens.

Thought Of The Day – Political Bullies

I am tired of bullies getting elected. Please can we stop putting them in power? Donald Trump, Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Green, Lauren Bobert, and their ilk have no business in leadership. They don’t make America great they make the country look really bad.

Six Word Story

Politics is a strange, cutthroat beast.

Thought Of The Day – Republicans, They Can’t Lead

Right now Republicans are incompetent and incapable of leadership as long as they bow down to Donald Trump and his base. They are not serious people who want to do what is best for the country. It’s frustrating to know that they are making America a horrible place to be in.

Both Democrats and Republicans have a responsibility to do government and governing. They almost put the United States in peril because they couldn’t pass a spending bill due to infighting. Putting people before a political party is vital.

Law and order should mean something here. Accountability is something Republicans used to believe in. Honoring the military with more than just lip service is important.

I do miss the Republicans of my childhood. Where did they go? I don’t mind some fiscal conservatism as long as it’s not harmful to those on the fringes.

Once again I’m going on record as saying that I hate Donald Trump for what he has done to good people in this country.

It’s Monday Already? Where Did The Weekend Go?

Seriously, where did the weekend go? I know it’s gotta be Monday but wow, it was just no time ago when I was cooking breakfast on Saturday morning. Time moves too fast. Have the best day possible good people.
