Trump Card

[shipperx]

Last night I used the gift certificate my boss gave me for Ruth's Chris with mom, sis, and B.I.L. going out for a birthday dinner. Cocktails and wine were involved and then upon returning to Sis's there was after dinner port -- my sister more than me -- and at some point the discussion became political. Both sis and I are passionate on the subject and we do NOT see eye to eye on this topic. Things got a little argumentative, and there was a morning texting round of I'm sorry for arguing something where we're simply not going to agree ((hugs)) texts. Followed by my trump card 😎, where I texted this. (She's the brunette and I'm the blonde).

Ah, she's older.

Lovely pic.

Yep, politics and religion,as an uncle (albeit a redneck uncle) once told me are not for polite company or family members.

My brother and I don't tend to agree either, although I couldn't tell you exactly why or even where on the political spectrum he falls exactly. We had an argument once about how the US should be more like Ireland and be able to vote twice in an election - this was his view, not mine. I remember retorting - uhm, considering you don't bother voting once...and sure lets make it more complicated for everyone.

Very glad my sisters and I are in agreement over politics (although I suspect one of them may be more pro-life than I'd like, owing to her religious convictions, but at least she keeps it to herself). If we weren't, there would be huge shouting matches at holiday dinners.

Cute photo. You and your sis were beautiful children.
