Dirty Laundry

 We have a saying here  in the U.S.“ Don’t air your dirty laundry”. Well there is no hiding what happened here yesterday from anyone in the world. I am heartbroken ... and I was actually physically shaking watching what was unfolding in Washington D.C., not from fear but from anger. To go about my business like nothing has happened is like not noticing the elephant in the room. Although I stand by the unspoken rule that some things need not be discussed on this page...one is religion the other politics...enough said.

I had to run an errand yesterday and came home to this happening  across the street..

Most of the homes  on our block are new, all built in the last ten years, but directly across the street there are two older small frame houses probably built  in the 1930’s. They belong to a church on the next block, and their youth minister lived in one, their janitor in the other. Old frame homes are not as easy to  maintain as brick homes so when maintinence costs kept raising the church decided to just demolish the one directly across from us. 

I couldn’t help but  stare at what was going on. It was funny to watch people driving by 

several  pausing  for a second look and  others, all men, getting out to stare and take pictures. It reminded me of little  boys who loved to play with the construction toys. We are not sure what will go up in the place of this home...So stayed tuned...
