Maya Angelou
The weirdest thing happened today.
SBean went in for her 18 month immunizations this morning. OMG my baby is 18 months already! How did that happen?
The lady that did the shots was super nice. She was from Winnipeg lol, so we had lots to talk about. It’s funny when I run into people from Winnipeg the subject always turns to MTC, WSO, or the RWB. I miss going to the theater, the symphony and the ballet. We do have these things here but on a smaller stage. I really can’t complain but Winnipeg has an AMAZING arts and cultural scene. Something I wish I had taken more advantage of now that I don’t have it. Cinderella’s Don’t Know What You Got Till It’s Gone, just came to my head lol and no I don’t mean the Disney movie LOL
Anyways, after the shot (which went super well) we have to wait in the kids room for any issues and to talk to the dental lady. While sitting in there 1 gentleman started talking about the Strike. We discussed. It moved on to things like health care and taxes.
I said, “I think one of our problems is that older people don’t have to pay school taxes.”
The elderly lady behind the table said,
“I don’t have kids in the school system. Why should I have to pay?”
“It takes a village to raise a child. In 20 years you will be using the system even more than you do now. Inevitably older people use more social services, health services and pension services. The people in charge will be those kids, the same kids your generation doesn’t feel like they have to help educate.”
She was just about the make a point in her defense when a younger woman who had just came in said,
“Ummmmm isn’t there a law about talking politics and religion in public? This is a public place and I don’t want to hear this. I want you to stop talking NOW or I’m calling the authorities or something!”
Seriously?
Wow.
Some people are so ignorant. She had a newborn. I hope she doesn’t pass that down to her little one!
Maya Angelou died today. She once said “It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength.”
Nobody was arguing. We had been talking for about 15 minutes. I thought we were having a wonderful conversation. Everyone is different but issues NEED to be discussed. You cannot change the system if you don’t know the system.
OOOOOOOkkkkkkkkk enough of that. LOL
Today we have having HBear’s 2 favorite things, combined. Pizza and Breakfast!
Pizza bagels topped with an egg 🙂 I served it up with a fresh and beautiful tossed salad.
To build the “pizza”, place a dollop of sauce on plate
and top with cheesy baked bagel. Add more sauce
and top then spoon your mushrooms on top.
Finish with a baked egg
and garnish with basil.
This was really good. I mean REALLY good. I’m not a huge fan of eggs but this was delicious and super easy to make without a lot of prep. WIN WIN and WIN! Anyone could do it… right Chels? 🙂
