Yesterday I decided to change my avatar to show my support for “No Kings” day. The idea was all mine, but I did have AI create it because I am not an artist. My hope is that the protest are large and remain peaceful.

I’m going to write something today. I don’t know what.

My brain is filled with all sorts of stuff. The problem is not the stuff that’s in my brain. It’s getting the stuff out and putting pen to paper that’s a pain

Don’t know why I can’t seem to write. Sometimes it just doesn’t feel quite right.

RIP Sly Stone

Clover, buttercups and Multiflora Rose. The Clover reminds me of when we would make bracelets out of it.

Air conditioning season has arrived here. We went from the mid-50s to 80 in two days, so of course some idiot decided to steal the copper wiring that allows the air conditioning to run.

Quote for Memorial Day

“It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.” A. Lincoln-Gettysburg Adress

I went through my closet this morning and threw out a lot of just in case and someday I may need it items. Everyone should do this at least once a year.

I wish everyone would stop calling the new Pope the first American Pope. Pope Francis was born in Argentina, which last time I checked was in South America. Pope Leo is the first pope born in the USA.

Currently at the Chicago Pen Show buying and enjoying myself

Well I woke up this morning at 4:00 AM because my mind decided that I needed to plan, and then rearrange my bedroom. Does anyone else have this problem?

Just a reminder on this day in 1775 a Revolution began which turned the world upside down.
