Following on another sleepless night. We had thought to go downtown today to support Gaza at a protest at the Israeli consulate, but no … we will write postcards to voters and make some donations to upcoming gubernatorial races instead (VA, NJ) (done, done, and done).
Feel quite literally sick and tired. I’d forgotten that if I chew gummies too many nights in a row, but stomach goes berserk. Oh well.
We walked to the dispensary nearby on Thursday, only to find it shuttered. So there’s that too. I did add magnesium to my pill box yesterday. Fingers crossed.
Pics from yesterday.
Something bled all over the Red Cross quilt. It was folded near the ironing board for weeks and perhaps the spray from my water bottle dampened it and made a red thread run? Or something else, I don’t know.
I unpicked some of the red threads, bought a color catcher for the wash. I’ll let you know how it comes out.
Just listened to an expert talk about system collapse — about how we have maybe four to eight weeks before we reach a saturation point of vulnerabilities. Eegad.
If you’re on insta you can listen here.
I send videos like this to Ken. He reciprocates by sending me fart videos. He knows me well.
I like the bleed, fits to the days.
I thought about that.
If the wash doesn’t work, I may dunk both sides in red dye. See what happens.
The red spillage – symbolic, perhaps a portent, a sign of things to come? I say this because we are going to have some red spillage on Oct 21st as my husband’s oldest last surviving brother (89) comes for a visit from Nevada as well as our nephew (62) from southern CA. We haven’t seen the brother in 7 years and I’m sure I’ve mentioned here that with the exception of the relatives in Minnesota, our nephew in New Mexico,and my immediate family, the rest of the family is Maga red. In the spirit of not wanting to cause undo stress, since this is a poignant visit between brothers, probably the last time they will see each other, I offered to remove my Hands Off Democracy sign that is placed by our front door, while they are here. Rich looked at me and said, “Oh hell NO!” But if you see a “purple” cloud wafting over the sky on Oct. 21st, you will know that there was a blue and red “rumble” in my home!
I don’t envy you that meet up. If things get heated, don’t forget how much you love to dance!
(((Dee))) These are strange days indeed, Shine On!
Hi Mo! Yeah. Strange, excruciating, horrifying, scary, and more.
Please share fart videos.
Will do!
Dee~ I like the bleed. Every now and then, I think how many ‘different’ fabrics does this gal have?!! You never cease to amaze me with the many prints.
