Seems may be the word onto which we hang our hope. Certainly Evil wants Good to feel hopeless and nothing can be done. I don't think things will be better anytime soon but there was enough shared experience this weekend people know they are not alone.

Picture at Pexel.com Or is tomorrow officially fall? I never remember if the seasons change on the 20th or 21st, but my weather alert text said today's the last day of summer. " Last day of summer! Increased sunshine with warmer highs in the mid-70s, isolated severe storms possible. Pleasant weather this week." It's a perfect morning sitting outside while the dogs play and I have my coffee. I've had a good weekend so far and am ok with getting some rain. Though, my daughter is working a festival and rain could keep crowds away. She's helping her friend in the food truck, but was hopeful she'd see some good return on her time in tips. Yesterday I met her roommate at the finish line of younger daughters 1/2 Marathon.

This just working part time is more than enough when my week feels busy. I don't recall the last time I had so much in a short period of time.

The shit show since January 20th has been a big reason for my reclusiveness the last few weeks. Let the comments fly. Create a crisis. Lie that you resolved it. Get your sycophants to suck it all up. Rinse. Repeat...for four F' ing years. Oh, and let's shout, "but her emails" while a foreign oligarch is raiding our private personal data with his hoard of teenagers.
