Sue's Blog - Some assembly required.

On a stick

We went to Wisconsin State Fair on Friday.
Donna and Lauren went again yesterday to see a band they like.

All of the usual rubbish was there.......on a stick........but we were quite surprised at this next one.


Just when you think you have seen it all they come up with something healthy.  It won't last though.
I bet by next year it will be "Deep Fried Salad on a Stick".

It was mostly a lovely day apart from a few sprinkles in the afternoon.
Some of us used their ingenuity to stay completely dry.

He got this t shirt for his birthday.
He collected quite a few compliments on his way around the fair from people saying how perfect it was for the occasion.
It is considered compulsory to 'eat you way' around Wisconsin State Fair and he throws himself into it wholeheartedly.

I also got something at the fair.

A new handbag.
Well I like it.

It is Lauren's first day at school tomorrow.  She is excited and (I am sure) a little nervous.
She would never admit it though.
I hope she enjoys it.  I doubt we could have found anywhere better.
Donna takes the first part of her driving test tomorrow.
She will take the written exam and then if she passes it she will set up her skills test, which they say is about a week later.
She has been practising all weekend so I hope she does well.
She can then get out on the road and do some driving before she takes the skills test.
Oh it is all happening here.
Next will be sorting out a car for her, car insurance etc.
We have a lady coming round tomorrow to try and sort out a reasonably priced health insurance too.
Very expensive time right now.

On another note.   In case you haven't heard there will be an election over here next year.
The Democrats have two or three candidates who are running for the leadership of the party whereas the Crazy Party...oh I mean Republicans....have about 20 candidates running.
Mostly they are nutters.   Anyway, so far the biggest nutter of them all is Donald Trump.  He is upsetting the Republicans in as much as he is far crazier than the rest of the Republicans.
Trouble is there are many loony Republican voters who are supporting him.  It is rather comical but, I have to admit, I dread to think what the rest of the world thinks of this circus.
TommyJones, never wanting to miss a bandwagon worth jumping on is getting in on all this mallarky.


Meet Tommy Trump.
He gets my vote.
