January 6th : A Very Sad Day in US History


Hi there beautiful lovely! Hope you guys are doing well and staying safe. Today I will write about a very sad day in US History, January 6, 2021.

January 6th 2021

The Election Certification:

Wednesday, was indeed a very sad day in US history. As President FDR said after the Pearl Harbor Attack, January 6 is a day that will live in infamy as the very first time after the War of 1812, where there was a breach in the people’s house, the US Capitol. January 6th was supposed to be symbolic day when the congress symbolically certify the electoral college from the November 2020 presidential election. However, many members of the congress made a mockery of that symbolic occasion to put their future political ambition first to disenfranchise the will of the people. This was not the first time that objection to the election certification happened, but never had it happen in collusion collusion with the losing presidential candidate to disenfranchise the will of the people for several states.

We have witnessed the unraveling of this president. Repeatedly, this president participated and/or insighted assault on democracy. He used the military to attack peaceful protestor for a political photo-op holding a bible upside down. Nonetheless, his party, the party who call themselves the party of Lincoln enabled his hundreds of lies and conspiracy theories. What they did on January 6, 2021 was a new low, unconscionable. Over 150 senators and representatives who joined the president to put an assault to the democracy. They hypocritically, opposed the result of the 2020 presidential election for states where the president failed to win but not the down-ballot candidates who won their state elections.

The Breach of the Capitol:

Wednesday, after the rally, a mob of right wing extremist breached the United States Capitol in an act of domestic terrorism. What I saw yesterday will forever stain this nation.

My dear friends! On Wednesday, a mob of domestic terrorists breached the Capitol and destroyed and defiled the people’s house, leading to five deaths.

No Voter Fraud:

I am telling you today again and again that there is no voter fraud. I am not giving you my opinion. I am just giving you the facts. After the 2016 election, this administration started a voter fraud commission which was later dismantled because of there was no evidence of voter fraud. Even after this election his own justice department did not find any evidence of voter fraud.

Double Standard:

My dear lovelies, I just want to take you back just 6 months earlier to the summer of 2020. Yes, I am talking about the Black Lives Matter protests all over the nation. Majority of the protestors were peaceful. Yet, we saw National Guards locked stepped in guarding the Lincoln Memorial.

My friend, the insurrectionusts breached the Capitol planned for months in social media. Hence my only question is why have we not seen the same seen in front of the Capitol? Why were the mob allowed to desecrate the house of the people? We did not even see any arrests?

Conclusion:

My dear friends, in the word of Maya Angelou, “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time”. Yesterday, the past five years of demogrogary insighted lead to the insurrection of our democratic process and the Capitol. Let us all condemn this heinous act and those responsible should be held accountable.

If we’ve seen anything from this week’s horrific incident is that your words matter. Every word matters. It can lead people to peace treaties or can lead people to war. Our words can make a difference between life and death and it does. If you don’t believe it ask the family of US Capitol police officers who died from injuries suffered in the siege.

My Declutter Project


Good Morning my lovelies! Hope you are doing well. Hope you had the chance to visit my new YouTube channel. You didn’t? Well, there’s still time. Do it now. I would love to hear your feedback. I would really appreciate it if you could please subscribe to my channel and like my videos. I really mean it!

Now that part is taken care of today I will take you to a virtual trip with me to declutter. Why is this important you ask? Well, you have know me than one thing you know for sure I am a lazy gurl to do stuff with less effort. Lol…why do I say that about myself? Well that’s true. I like to spend more time in life doing what is important to me, that’s living in the moment. Another thing you should know about me is that I am a shopaholic with generalized anxiety disorder. How does that have to do with declutter? Well, when you are dealing with the above to problem, your life can easily turn to that of a borderline hoarder. That’s exactly what happened to me.

Hence, staying at home has given me the opportunity to do some decluttering. I have a long way to go but at least I have started! The very first place that I have started is the kitchen. Please check out my above video where I showed a glimpse of my decluttering project. First of all storage boxes, shelf organizer, labels, and drawer dividers have been my lifesaver. I have ADD and memory issue (from medicine side effect). Hence, forgetting is a common part of my life. This is where labeling has come in very handy for me.

My mom always tells me, if my head wasn’t attached to my body, I would ave forget it long time ago. This is very true. After organization, I would lose (misplaced may be the more accurate term) very easy, and label made it easier for me to easily locate everything. You see, the clutter started in the first place because I wanted everyone on my sight so that I don’t misplace them and when you know that for everything, things can get out of control easily. That’s why I needed this decluttering project as a cognitive/behavioral therapy.

First of all, keeping like items in boxes can not only make your life easier but can also keep your items organized. mDesign boxes has been my lifesaver when it comes to organizing. My kitchen is full of different types of these boxes.

Next, these airtight food containers are another life saver. Moreover, it comes with the chalkboard label and marker. Beside, they are also stackable, which makes it quite easy to stack them and look organize. Where it’s cookies, flour, cereal, sugar or anything. I have them all in these stackable airtight containers and have them labeled so that they can be identified easily. Now I don’t have to look through items for half an hour everyday. It has made my life so easier.

As I have mentioned earlier, chalkboard labels have been my new BFF. Don’t tell the storage boxes that I did it.All my items are now labelled, thanks to these handy little guys. It makes it so much easier to me to locate items.

Shelf organizer has been my another life saver. As you can see the video It has allowed me to organize my spice jars in a way that is easy to get to. I absolutely love new new organized kitchen.

Howe do you organize your kitchen? Do you have any tips for me? I would love to read your feedbacks.
