Pervasive anxiety

I don't know about you, but the closer we get to November 5, the more my stress level increases. When I lay down in the other night, I realized that my shoulders ached from the amount of tension I am holding in them. And it doesn't help my ability to relax when the Republican candidate suggests that executing Liz Cheney is a good idea. Well, that doesn't surprise me, but the absolute silence from his party is staggering, as well as the absolute silence from his supporters. That is what I find terrifying. After years of being lied to, it seems his followers have lost any moral compass they might have once had. Oh, but I should amend the statement about his party. They did respond by saying he didn't say what he says, even though there is video that he said it. 

J. and I have voted. Many of our children have already voted. K. voted for the first time. We have done what we can. It feels like so little. Lord have mercy. 

You probably need to look at cat pictures now as much as I do.
