Ok, I did get that one. It occurred to me that I being the age I am and I get so many junk mails along those lines, I might not even notice them. Trust me, at 78, I do get a lot. But never noticed them from BAR.

I listened to his full speech on CBN. It was what a real leader sounds like. Huge support for him going forward!

Right now, Iโ€™m watching a lecture sponsored by the Archaelogical Institute. Later I will be as a trans woman doing some reading re requesting sanctuary in Canada if it gets too bad here. Right now, my state protects me, but constitutional protections are already being usurped.

Tonight is the fourth night of Chanukah. Shavua Tov. I heard a lovely drash yesterday reminding us that we light the candles but the true light is within us. So let that light shine out, illuminating the way for Tikkun Olam, repairing this broken world of ours. Chag Chanukah Sameach!!! โœก๏ธ๐Ÿ•Žโœก๏ธ๐ŸŽ—๏ธ๐ŸŽ—๏ธ๐ŸŽ—๏ธ

Another day reorganizing my life after my wifeโ€™s passing. Work on my book, jump back into photography, this time from a wheelchair, reorganize my apartment. Such is my life these days. But damn I miss her.

My word of the day (and personal recommendation) is โ€˜snerdlingโ€™ (18th century): nestling cosily beneath the covers and holding off the day a little longer.

Morning.

It was difficult at times. Thankfully therapy helped negotiate the twists and turns.

My wife and I loved it! I must say as a wheelchair user, I am glad to be living in this time, but sad that too many cannot get one.

I told Mom I was a girl at age 3. It was 1950 and didnโ€™t go well. Came out as gay in โ€˜67. Acted out my femme, but it wasnโ€™t authentic. Finally ttansitioned in 90. Lesbian on the other side. Happiness began then. Have wife and community. I love happy endings.
