Not to generalize too much, but

The thoughtlessness and sense of entitlement in the behavior that one individual suggests he could be a trumper. AND I also wouldn't be surprised to learn that he's "pro-life."

Whew! Glad it was just an allergy and not something worse.

Glad to hear! Good news is always welcome, and heart-warming, especially these days!

And yeah, Rosie is a cutie!!!

There's one thing about the DU community - there are MANY pairs of good strong shoulders here.

Can't see 'em. Can only sense them in the thoughts and feelings that people post. And they're CERTAINLY there. Lifting you up, providing virtual support and strength, even while not in a physical sense. Emotionally, sympathetically, and empathetically though - very much a different story, thankfully.

I think it's helpful to read what everybody's posting about how this is affecting them. It widens our world, and our view and our filter of it. Husband and I are just a couple of retirees who are no longer involved in an active business/office sense, so there's no other way that WE can be helped to understand than to hear and share and read and learn how other people live and cope and need and struggle. I'm sorry you have to go through this with your business. I've been lucky enough to be part of some small businesses where it feels almost like your second family more than a mere job with coworkers. Everybody shares in the triumphs and good news, and consoles each other in adversity.

I hope you and your team can weather this storm all the way out. I hope you get the help you need, and I hope they all do, too. You sound like a boss who doesn't have a spread sheet where a human heart would be.

Virtual hugs!

EXCELLENT catch, Midnight Writer.

FIXED. I went back and looked, and yep, I had put in the wrong number.

Glad you caught it. And thank you!

As we say in our Indivisible group's Research & Writing team - editors make us better writers.

One thing we know for sure is wonderful about Ireland:

trump isn't too involved over there. Other than owning a golf resort that isn't doing that well right now.

I probably shouldn't, either.

I guess trump just brings that out in me. The thought just started coming to mind every time I looked at him.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
