I’m Ashley. I pray that it doesn’t snow or rain on Sunday and Monday as I do not want my medical scooter wrecked. Hope to make it to church tomorrow, somehow. I hope that next weekend, especially on the 15th, my medical scooter still works and that I arrive at church on time and don’t leave church too early, either. My mum Glenda is sick with maybe the flu, and I hope my dad and I don’t get it or the common cold. My mum is very ill mentally, hard to explain, but she can be very controlling, at times. My dad Alan is sick physically in different ways, but I worry about my dad’s memory (he forgot where a specific street is for example), help him remember things. As for Donald Trump, help him see his greed and other errors of his ways, and get him to stepdown or get someone else to force him too stepdown, peacefully. Mark Carney, he’s a good leader but I hope he doesn’t get hid of companies like Walmart in Canada. I hope to buy somethings online without my parents interfering, as my mum (at times my dad) known to make things hard, even getting to be able to use the washroom is challenging at times.
My loved one died unexpectedly at Christmas.
