More of the Same

 I really promise that this journal WILL have other content that is not just me gnashing my teeth and rending my garments. Really. I PROMISE! But I just heard that two of the things that will probably be targeted in the new proposed budget will be the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (including NPR) and the National Endowment for the Humanities. My sister works for a state agency associated with NEH, and her husband works for an NPR station. And another sister works for another agency which will probably be targeted. I don't feel very secure in my own job these days, but I guess I'm better off than the rest of my family at the moment. *brave little grin*
