For the last couple of weeks the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians have discussed or decided to retire the “Redskin” and “Indian” mascots and logos. One of the many changes commercial and private entities are doing to show their support for the amplified movements against racism in the United States. Dave Schiller the Braves President
We are on a “sleep strike” and an “anything but Mama strike” at our house, so no witty opener this morning. I can’t afford to use up the incredibly small amount of brain power that I have left. Old fight flares as work begins on new hospital in Georgia 11-year-old Georgia girl sews hundreds of
I will admit I’ve been pretty harsh on Senator Kelly Loeffler. Although, let’s be honest, she’s suffered from self-inflicted damage.

It’s the first Monday of July. I kinda hoped we’d wake up on the 5th after a late night of fireworks and celebration and find a whole new world…but, alas, this is not the case. So, wear your mask, social distance, and just be nice to people, y’all. YMCA camp in Georgia closes after campers
This is discouraging. Savannah requires masks in public places. Callaway Gardens is still planning to have fireworks this weekend. Do you think hurricanes care about viruses? Lawd. 22 and 26. South Carolina has a great Senator. FSU shows its colors. Walder Frey was unavailable for comment. No. No. No. Good news. Better news. Remembering Carl
During his “Wear a Mask” tour, Governor Kemp made it abundantly clear he lacks the desire to actually combat the spread of coronavirus. Side note: yesterday was yet another record-breaking day forCovid-19 in Georgia with 2,464 new cases . Our previous record was Monday with 2,016 cases. That broke the record set six days before.
Good morning! Point of personal privilege: 20 years ago today, my husband and I went on our first date.
