traditions

 Eorye’s shadow hung over us today. The gloom was thick and even with lights on the house was dim. I forced myself through the day, even managing to tidy my closet and do a few loads of laundry. Not earth shattering but I felt satisfied that I didn’t go back to bed and pull the covers over my head!


Adia’s energy wasn’t impacted by the grey skies… she played an especially energetic ‘deek the lion’ with Carm in the field.


We had chicken shawarma plates for supper, a favorite takeout meal replicated at home. The chicken marinated since yesterday morning, the rice cooked quickly in the instant pot and the Greek salad was whipped up right before dinner. So good!


Do you ever watch Fareed Zakaria? His monologue today was about the actions of Trump and the uprising of his supporters and what the long term effects of this might be on America. Some of Trump's speeches were almost verbatim of ones given by Hitler in 1918. He’s ripping their country apart.


Our Sunday night visit with Olaf and Stephanie is almost becoming a tradition, a lovely tradition!



“There is some kind of a sweet innocence in being human—in not having to be just happy or just sad—in the nature of being able to be both broken and whole, at the same time.”
