Summer and I are outside early this evening.
Today we cleaned up her front acre. I mowed and mulched enough to wear myself out.
Summer says that she feels sad that we feel sad.
I told her that I don't have time for feeling sad. I am old and my husband is ten years older. We have no option except to ride out what time we have left in our little house, on a northern California hillside, as happily as we can.
I don't want to let the current political situation deny us happiness for the time we have left.
I will do everything I can to help circle the wagons around those that are dear to me and deal with what I have to, when I have to. I will try to be a source of comfort for whoever needs comfort. I will toot Summer photos and beauty where I find it, but I am done doomscrolling.
Zero politics for me for awhile.
