Cats are finicky
They have a mind of their own
They give affection
In cuddles snuggles and purrs
Without them life would be dull

STREET TALK
|
Both my friend and I have mental and emotional injuries. But we enjoy cooking for each other and we can deal with each other’s chaos while we try to help each other! For instance, she tripped over my new drafting table while we were trying to put it together. Everybody’s OK, including the table! Anyway, I was explaining to her about the plants on my porch and how I put old food in the ground to make compost.

People Who are Different Shouldn’t be Harassed
|
Because cops have badges on they think they can do anything. I heard from a friend of mine that the cops recently harassed and beat a trans woman. I hope they lose their jobs and someone does to them what they did to that person. They had no right to do that. Just because you are a cop doesn’t give you the right to beat up anyone you want.

The Unifying Power Of Music
|
When I’m not writing about my customersCurrent events or things that happen to me in my day to day lifeOr when I’m out and about or on the streetMy attention often turns to musicThe words convey such meaningThe power they have on our mind and heart is astoundingA song can totally change our mood,Make us smile, turning a frown upside downThe words can stir our emotionsFrom deep insideEven those we try to hideMusic can transport you through timeReminding you of those you loveA husband, a wife, a child, other family and friendsIt knows no age limit,The beat, the rhythm, the words attract People from ALL sorts of backgroundsIt transcends socio-economic classes and stereotypesDesigned to fit us into a mold by a predetermined set of factsOver which we have little or no controlIt knows no boundariesIt crosses EVERY lineIt is impartial, blind to race or genderIn a world that’s SO dividedBy the news media, politics and religionI find music to be a respite, quite refreshing!Like the communities in which we live,Genres meld blending different forms to create something new and differentwith its own appealThat’s pretty amazing! Don’t you think?Yes, all of this can happen in 3 or 4 minutes Such a brief measure of timeYet it can accomplish SO much!People come together in a harmonious chorus of rhythm, and rhymeIn just a few notes or lines of a song!

I’ve ALWAYS said selling the paper ISN’T just about the money, it’s about the connections you make with the people you meet.

13 Years with The Contributor
|
On August 3, I’ve been selling The Contributor for 13 years. I love it. On September 3, I’m having surgery on my leg and I don’t know when I’ll be back to sell the paper. It’s been a year since my accident and since the doctors messed up my first surgery. If it was not for my husband, I don’t know what I would do.
