Snowing for two days and I am back smiling.

 Just outside cleaning off my car, and walked around taking great black and white photos of the snow. Did not realize how much I missed the snow. That quietness, the sense of going nowhere and the happiness of it.

Snow, soft and cold, wet and crunchy how much I need a good snowstorm to center myself.

No place to go. No appointments. Refrigerator is stocked with Trader Joe's goodies.

Classical music from the internet. I am good to go and center myself. Can't find my downloaded pictures of today. But, this picture pretty much sums up how I feel today.

Yippie i ay.

I have waited four years for the Biden Inaugural Celebration.

 Four years ago, I decided that as soon as Trump entered the White House, I vowed not to cut my hair until he left. I have very long hair now. 

Paper Whites in Bloom along with my mind.

Stop drinking the second cup of coffee.

The world is not coming to an end.

Democracy is still here in the USA///but, it is going to be an uphill fight.

My skin is getting older, less flexible. But my mind is still flexible.

I hate the place that our president has put us in. 

I will practice calmness. I will sit outside even though it is winter.

I will continue reading and watching the news. 

i want power. i want to fly. i want to be light as the clouds. i want my body to be still and calm.

i want to eat healthier foods. 

i want to stop eating until food is gone.

i want to be able to go to a museum and start hugging everyone in the room.

Give each human dignity, now.

Tell no lies, no acts of violence and you can be my friend.

i dont know how I could ever sit in one desk for over eight hours. Maybe this is why they call it work.

Operation Kickstart 2021

 

2020 was not a great year. I had high hopes for 2021. Then,,,this happened.

So, to stay positive, I have started Operation KickStart 2021. If next week on 20 January does not go as planned, I will start Operation KickStart 2, 2021. I must keep my mind positive. People are good by nature. People are loving. All people deserve dignity now as Eleanor would say.

Wish me luck.

Too much coffee....slow down and go back to quiet teas.

Just Trying to Breathe.

 I sit at my deck pretending that I am brave and that I understand this new world reality. Did not sleep much last night. Watched the Senate and House debate the Electoral College votes. Right now I just finished a cheery puzzle on line of daisies and hot tea in a very pretty and dainty cup. Listening to WBUR Classical Radio on my computer. Just trying to breathe. 

Drinking coffee and soon I shall walk down to the river and smell the marsh and try once again to relax.

My New Normal is Now The Twilight Hour

 

Trump is out to destroy all of our democracy. Each day, closer to the Biden's swearing in, Trump open his mouth and hate and destruction pour out of him.  Each and every Democratic win has been challenged.  Now his goons are filling up the street of Washington DC to challenge the electoral college. 

He must be stopped. But what worries me is that Republicans are willing to follow his crazy and desperate lead.

I try to stay calm, but, this news, corona virus increasing spike leave me very little space in my mind to be calm, cool and collective.
