Damn, so long since I posted, not sure how to do it. Yeah I’m keeping up with the news but also surfing with my partne. Life is short. Politics happen. Let’s survive & yes protest! Do it French style then join your friends afterwards for aperos! Go to the beach - never know how long you have. #surf

I smiled. He must have gotten his sense of humor from you. 😉

It is an amazing beach in Portugal - Praia da Rocha Baixinha. (Beach of the rocky cliff.) It was a total accident that we found it. We were just trying to find a campground and once we parked we took the trail to the beach. As you said - Wow!

And scrolling…. It’s like that kind of addiction.

Yes. Just as we remember those who joined the Nazi party so they could eat. We only remember them as nazis and collaborators in the holocaust.

Me too. Yeah it bothered me but I knew he was in shock and grief too. Thankfully I have the things she gave me during her life. Oh well, life. It’s not for sissies! 😉

Um… no. Not today I’m writing a road trip book in French all my creative threads are there… how about an old poem appropriate to Valentine’s Day? 🤷‍♀️

Our mothers are so precious to who we are. I lost mine in 2011 to ALS. (My father cared for her to the very end - earning my eternal devotion in spite of his politics).
I would’ve loved to have had some of her things, but shortly after her death, he cleared out the house & sold it. My condolences.

Space it excellent! A few years after the death of my husband, I tried to let go of things. There were bits & pieces I loved. It felt like a betrayal of those years we had together. Covid reminded me that now is all we have. I decluttered to have light & air. I know he would’ve loved the result.

You know what I say. Ask for help because it will make that wonderful social connection and bring joy to someone else to be needed. Um… unless it’s a hernia inducing oak & lead lined bookcase… I had one like that once… left it behind in my last move!

No. I stopped sending paper cards in 2003. Everything I do now is digital.

Sorry, I had to disappear as I was labeled $pam & had many comments erased. Hopefully after 5 days, the bots will have forgotten me. Tomorrow there are marches planned. I have studied history. It is important to participate, but expect that takes time. The first protest will not be enough.

Waking to the sounds of gulls,
Slow blink to raucous bicker.
Light slips beneath eyelids.
Almost asleep again,
When
I smell the sea.
Smile,
And rise with the tide.
