We all have experienced disappointment when our favorite
Candidate lost , but this reaction is beyond reasonable.
It was sad to see friends attacking each other on Facebook and threatening to
unfriend any supporters of Trump or 3rd party candidates.
I think it’s hit a new low when Grubhub puts out a company email
calling for the resignation of those who support Ttump or Macy’s cancelling of Trumps clothing line.
I am not going to get political here,but going to just stand strong in my faith in our Democracy.
I decided to wear my flag scarf today , as I pray for those disappointed in the
election results to find peace within themselves as it is something we all can relate to
and have experience with (unless like my son who experienced the craziest of first elections )
I learned a new way to wear a infinity scarf from my private style group.
Normally, just put it twice around my neck and fluff it….
Today I hung it over my neck then twisted it twice before putting it
back over my head the second time.
I kept my boot color the same as my pants here to extend the leg line ,
which is important as a petite with the length of the sweater.
The hi-low front is a help in creating good proportions as well.
I have this sweater from last year in two colors and so does my daughter.
The good news is that it is back for the season and available HERE
Dear Readers please don’t leave comments getting into a political debate or
venting your frustrations, there are plenty of places to do that and my blog is not one of them.
I’ll leave you with one last thought I saw on Facebook yesterday :
” We should all wish President-elect Trump well , as he’s like a pilot of a plane
we are all on together. ”
P. S. Let me know if my directions on how I styled the scarf or if you
would do better if I made a video for you?
Gratitude
I am grateful for my friends and the wonderful support they offer in so many aspects of life.
I am grateful that I took a nap yesterday and didn’t get caught up in any toxic discussions on Facebook.
I am grateful that I did express compassion and a solution for more peaceful thoughts to someone.
I am grateful for this country and the wisdom of our forefathers who designed our government.
I am grateful for the conversations that this election process has brought out with my adult and teen children.
I am grateful that the stock market is doing well with the election results.

I so agree with everything you said. Whether or not we voted for the president elect we need to respect him and the office of the president. I love the sweater and am going to order one or two. Thank you for the link.
